Mayor Pingiee Accepts Defeat Like q
Soldier.


DETROIT, Jnly 22.-- Mayor PIN
gree reached the city hall 1T
2:30 p. IN. today with sweet pea
blossoms in MS coat. He Was certainly
in an amlabls frame of mind. He
gave the following authorized inter-
view Telasive to the convention:
~ went into this canvass for the
gubernatoriai no minatlon, taking into
consideration the chances of losing,
and without any intention of nursing
u sore mead if it did not come my way !.
1t is true that some OF the method o
adopted to accomplish my defeat were
not such as to commend themselves to
thinking and progressive republicans,
and TO falr-miuded citizens generally.
But the question OF the nominee for
governor has been settled and the re-
sponsbility must rest with those who
settled 1t.
"Of course, the action of the
convention does not in the slight
est degree affect my republican,
ism, and | shall do as much
to help to elect Mr.. Rich as he would
have done to help to elect me if l had
been nominated. Not being an orator
cannot be expected to make stump
speeches during the campaign. But
anything else that l can do. will do
cheerfully for the success of the ticket
from president down.
"During my stay at Saginaw l was
greatly pleased at the many kind words
and wishes which ware expressed to-
wards me both by delegates and others
whom it was my pleasure to meet.
81 wish to say that have been par
ticularly honored and pleased by the
devotion and fidelity of my friends in
the convention; and especially of the
Wayne county delegation, who stood
by me so loyalty and so sOiidIy

dgainst the Rev. J. NJ. Potter, pastor of
q local church, were preferred before
the presiding elder and the official
board today. MIR. Potter has been
pastor of the church nearly two years
aud during the Last year particularly
there have been rumors afoot which
connect his name unfavorably
with that Of young married
woman OF his congregation.

mining whether sufficient grounds ex-
isted for bringing formal charges, and
it Was decided that the pastor must de-
fend himself before the conference
and give up his charge unless the
charges were disproved. Mr.. Potter
admitted that his conduct toward the
woman referred to had been indiscreet,
but claimed that it was not of q GRIM
inal nature.
