REPUBLICAN FAMILY ROW.
Milholland Called a Disorgan.

Boss Plat Also Accused of Being

"Milholland. the D~isorganizcr." is what
the Bliss reorganizers call Boss Platt's

OF the County Convention held in Cooper
Union by the so-called anti-machine Re-
publicans last night. Mr.. Plat is known
as a joker: hat is why he dubs the new
faction as an anti-machine organization.
The formation of this new organiza-
tion has created a split in the Republi.
can party OF New York City. There will
be two organizations, the other to be es.

BROOKLYN NEWS.
FINED THE LEM0M-suCKER.
A Demoralized Street Band Gets
Revenge in Court,
Joker's Antics Made Their Mouths
Fucker So They Couldn't Play.

John Garner, OF S79 South Second street,
was fined s. In the Lee Avenue Court.
Williamsburg. to-day or a charge of as
saulting Samuel Snyder. Of IS Montrose
avenue, the leader and cornet player of
a street band.
The fight was the outcome Of what
Garner thought was a Joke, but which
Snyder and his fellows considered a very
serious matter. While they were play
ing in front of a saloon at 70 Harrison
street. anticipating beer at least and pos
sibly cash. Garner, who considers him
self a practical joker, went to the street
with a lemon in his hand, and, leaning
against the ~iamp-post, sucked the lemon.
AS all musicians know, this will pucker
the mouth of a horn-blower, and the
musicians say Garner was acting mali
,ciously.
At any rate. just as the melodlous
strains of "Mollie and l and the Baby"
were being waited out towards the at
mosphere Of Newtown Creek, the cornet
players left eye caught sight of Garner
and his lemon. and just then the water
variation in a high scale came out. like
the noise of steam bubbling through
water.
The cornet player looked disgusted,
and as he took Che mouthpiece from his
horn to pour out the collected saliva,
,bystanders say he looked fercely at
IdTleT aIlu Sdlu something very en-
phatic. There was another trial, how
evr, but this time the man who handles
the bass horn, as well as the baritone
player, could not help but gaze at
Garner with the result that neither
could make a note. The drum artists
hammered away, of course but the
crowd was not satisfied with their eff
forts, and the evidence in court this
morning was that the musicians were
guyed numerically.
At any rate, Snyder lost his temper,
as his lips assumed an uncomfortable
quicker. and going up to Garner he told
him to go away. Garner simply took
another lemon from his pocket. how
ever, n handing it to Snyder, re-
marked:
Have one on me-"
This was more than even a musician
could stand, so Garner pushed Snyder
towards the street. Then the man with
a lemon became serious. and, 1t is al
legged, he thrashed the cornet player.
Policeman Gaugham arrested him, and
in court to-day Snyder was. fined for
using his fists, 1t was stated, but the
victim thought the Justice had been
particularly severe on account of the
1oke.
