pndiated the action of the private gath

.crly marshal of the district under
Cleveland, 10 attend the meeting. He
was at the original meeting a week
ago, but sent in his resignation as u
member of the committee No action
was taken on it.
The significance of Mr.. Wilson's
resignation lies in the supposed init

land and is taken to indicate n purpose
on the part of the pres;dent.elect not
to express II preference for reithcr party

Tho democrats of the district will
