The meeting then adjourned until next

in the ticket prepared by the committee
at the meeting on Saturday night. II is un-
derstood that there was some dissats-
faction on the part of some Of Mr.. s
Krouskoffs friends, on accouut OF me fact
that his name was not on the ticket After
careful consideration Of the matter
however, and consultation with Mr.
Krouskon by the committee, at a meeting
held yesterday afternoon, it was deemed
best to let the ticket stand as it was
This was, il is stated, entirely satisfactory
to Mr.. Krouskon after the understanding
that was reached.
Just before the crowd left the hall. T.

were all with Mr. Myers. and that they
would do all in their power toward his
election. He spoke pleasantly Of Nj. Ny
