GLEESON AND CHASE.
An Interchange Of Greetings at an Acct
dental Meeting This Morning.

An Interchange Of Greetings at an Acct
dental Meeting This Morning.
There was an accidental meeting of several
republican leaders in front of the health Office
this morning. Editor Chase and Andrew Glee-
son were there, as were Henry Lacey and Mar
cellus West.
Greetings we're exchanged and the election
last night was referred TO, when Mr.. Gleeson
took large roll of bills from his pocket and
offered to bet Chase thousand that the Chase
faction could not carry a single district.
One of the bystanders made the remark,
'Put up or shut up" but Chase evidently did
not want to bet, and when Mr.. Gleeson re-
peated his offer Chase said something about
Gleeson going to q warmer climate. This re-
mark incensed Gleeson and he approached as
though blows would follow, telling Chase not
to suggest to him to go to the place referred to-
popularity believed TO be very warm.
Chase said rats" and went into the Office.
Mr.. Gleeson said he was tired of paying taxes
to pay such a man as Chase, and Mareellus
West. who is one of Chase's heutenants, re-
marked that he had his credentials in his
pocket.
That's all right" said Mr.. Gleason; I'D
just as lief see you have them as any other
man, but don't like to see such a man as Chase
have them"
The politicians soon separated and trouble
was avoided.
