which indicated that the work would be
protested against. The notice was handed
TO him in due time, and it is no fault of the
mayor or this board that he went ahead.

Haines and Reid.
NAYs-Aldermen Mills, Carson, Harmon,
Mcclure and O'Brien.
Mayor McDonough, with an air Of salts
faction at the situation before him, said
in an emphatic tone: The mayor votes
yes"
In casting his vote Alderman Bailey said:
"Mr. Mayor, believe in fair play. l have
learned that certain citizens will protest
against the double tracking, and propose
to vote for the substitute in order TO give
them a chance at the next meeting"
The aldermen who voted against the sub
stitute then called attention TO the fact that
considerable money had been spent by the
railway company In the work already done,
and hey thought it ought TO be given a
chance at another meeting to meet the pro-
test Alderman Cam agreed TO this with

HILL CLUB MEN NEE :.

They Decide Unanimously in Favor OF
Prim aries.
The Hill Democratic Club held the first
Of its district meetings last night at Hendy's
hall, West Broad ana Bryan streets, in the
First district.
About 200 were present. Stirring speeches
were made by Messrs. P. J. O'Connor,
Henry McAlpin, Philip NJ. Russell and
others.
Before adjournment resolution was iu-
troduced asking for au expression from the
Hill men Of the First district with regard
to the primary question. The meeting
unanimously decided in favor OF primaries
at the approaching election of delegates
and at all subsequent elections. A meeting
will be held in the Fourth district on next
Monday night
The latest political rumor, and enc that
is causing much comment, is with regard to
possible compromise arrangements between
the Democratic Campaign and Hill clubs
that will permit Of each of them turning it's
batteries on the common enemy instead of
on the other.
Mutual friends have suggested that the
delegation to the state COW eution be divided
up between the clubs, and that each of them
be given either three delegates with a full
vote to each, or six with half vote to each.
With such an agreement made, the clubs
could use their funds, their eloquence and
their energies in combating the third par Y
in the surrounding counties. and in this way
do some practical good for the party.
Many members OF each Of the climbs are
said to regard the proposition with favor,
and it may be that ON effort will be soon
made to that end.

after Alderman O'Brien sat down. twill

double tracking of the squares. It does not
seem to be reasonable. 1t destroys the
beauty of the city, and it is the duty Of my
self as mayor, duty which l owe to the
people of this city, that those squares be
preserved. and that no railway corporation
be given the authority to mar them IN any
shape or FORM
Alderman Cam Endorsed the mayors
sentiments and said he didn't propose to see
1t done If he could preventit.
Alderman Carson moved that the COM
mittee on streets and lanes be authorized to
allow the work to go on. Alderman HaE-
mon seconded the motion.
Alderman Cam offered substitute that
che authority given by council In the mat
ter be rescinded. Alderman Haines sec,
onded the substitute.
Alderman O'Brien thought there was
some misunderstanding about the rights
granted and also the letter of the mayor
which caused the mistake Of carrying on
the work as it had been done.
AN EMPHATIC OPPOSITION.
81 am glad that you have called attention
60 the fact that a mistake has occurred. -
said Mayor McDonough. ut is a grave
mistake, but IL is not one emanating from
the mayor or this board. 1t Is the mistake
of Capt Johnston You have neglected to re-
fer to the two letters written Capt
Johnston by Col. VIM and myself.
I have not heard Capt. Johnston say that
pc did not receive Col Winn's letter. Capt.
Johnston attempted TO rush that work
through, under notice Of tile city en-
yineer that he should not go on with IL in
order that he could get advantage Of the
protest that was TO be made. But his move
oents were nipped in the bud.
