FAILED TO MATERIALIzE.
The meeting of business men called for
last night at the Second National bank
with some idea of placing third city
ticket in the field, failed to materialize.
During the evening some fifteen or more
who had signed the call put in an ap-
pearance and left again, SO that at no
time was there more than hand full
present. 1t was the prevalent sentiment
that it is<now too near election day to
take any decided steps toward new
ticket, and thus the independent move
ment subsidies for this year.
