That was a very fine meeting OF Eleventh
district Republlcaus in Mott Memorial Hall on
| Madison avenue on Saturday night The par
| ticulnrs didn't como out until yesterday and
then when they became known 1t didn't re-
| quire wisdom to discern that there IL trouble
ahead in the district Although Col George
! Bliss, leader OF the district from time Inn
memorial, has resigned, his friends and his
influence are still powerful. md that meeting
on Saturday night did not represent the Bliss
element by any means ON the contrary
there was a revival Of the Miholland-Town-
! send McMurrsy opposition. This was yelled
and to a certain extent subordinated to the
ostenslble purpose OF the meeting.
| For several days before invitations had been
sent out through the district to attend this
meeting. but evidently the Bliss men were
| overlooked. At least mono was on hand
| on Saturday night. In the interesting gath

May be they'll meet Dave Martin. who came
oyer q year ago and tried to run this town for
After this another committee was appointed
to ascertain the continent OF the district
on the subject. The sting was in the tail.
Some OF those present. however declared that
there was no intentio Of precpitating u fight
against the Bliss element or anybody else.
Only those no visited the Ninth Assembly
district yesterday can have any notion Of the
bitterness between the followers of Uncla
George H. Deune and James A. Cowie OF tho
rival Republican camps OF the district. The
order OF tho supreme Court compelling
Deane's people to turn over the roll to Cowie's
friends has only Intensified the bitterness
The forces under Deane. and. Incidentally
under United states Marshal John W. jaco-
bus, did not hesitate yesterday to speak Of
the Cowie folks as liars, loafers. and thugs"
The Cowie men retorted by saying that trey
did not care anything for the talk Of the fol-
lowers OF Jacobus and Deane both bene1ci-
aries under n Democratic Administration.
They recalled that Mr. Jncobus 10 still United
States Marshal and that Mr.. Deane still has u
slice OF the Custom House carriage contract. 1t
Is an ugly fight and it Ia not believed that the
County Committee. even when reorgan!zcd,
can satisfactorily settle IL, but that there has
broken out in the Ninth district feud to which
the old row in the Thirteenth district between
Gibbs and Cowie In the old days is not .
