band OF the Gleason party In Long Island City
yesterday. and corresponding despair In the
strOngholds Of the Mayor. 1t was occasion ed
by the decision OF County Clerk Sutphn. who
was called upon to pass on the legality OF the
nominations made by the warning factions
who are seeking to wipe each other out OF ex-
istence. Tho hearing on the question occu-
pied several days. and the decision was
awaited with considerable apprehension by
both sides. The cutoff band is led by Po-
lice Justice Stephen j. Kavanagh. and the
question involved In the controversy was which
ticket was entitled to be recognized as the
regular nominees OF the Gleason party. which
il danominnted the Regular Democrats" to
distinguish theEl from the numerous other
factions in TINT city,
In his decision the County Clerk upholds the
Iaynnagh city ticket and dec larss the Gleason
twset. with the execution OF the county can
didatts. to DO null and void. As no county
can i'latrs were nominated by the kavanaRh
