ELKUs MAKES A SPEECH.
Il owe this association said Albert
Elkus, "and as long as they do not ask
lor II we presume they are glad to have
our loan. There is an instance where in
terest has not been paid for twenty
months for interest and twenty months
1or dues. At the last meeting Mr. Goethe
said this was so. l would like to ask Mr..
Goethe II that statement, made in the
presence Of these stockholders, is COR
rect"
Goethe replied that the statement was
correct, with certain exceptions.
Adolph Heilbron said Devlin was not a
stockholder. He had told Elkus that the
speaker owed the association $50, 900. 81
gave good security for it,' said Heilbron,
'and paid interest on that loan every
month. l never neglected to pay my
dues. If l want any money l can get

Chairman Hahn-I will allow no per-

Heilbron-Sit down, and attend to your
own business!
Hahn-I call you to order!
Heilbron-You Sit down! don't want
to have anything to do with you
Here discussion followed as to
whether or not Goethe paid anything to
\. Lemansky for making a $4,000 loan

holders claimn1 SbOul6 baua hoor, nDl "
$1,000.
Goethe denied having received any
money from Zemansky for making the
loan, and Zemansky said he had paid
Goethe nothing.
One OF the stockholders suggested that
$500 had been paid to Goethe, which the
latter again strenuously denied.
Heilbron-There are no flies on Ze-
mansky!
ALBERT JOHNSON TALKS.
A. NJ. Johnson said he was a stock
holder. The affairs of the association
had been taken out of the hands of the
stock khoIders by Goethe. 1t afforded him
pleasure to second the nomination of the
stock who were opposed to the re-
tentlon of Goethe. DeVlin was a paid
representative of Goethe. 1t is time that
the affairs of the association were taken
from the one-man control and given to
the rank and tile. What is needed are
responsible men, not only in integrity,
but financially as well.
BALLOTING PROCEEDS.
The stockholders then settled down to
the election of directors for the long
term, but up to a late hour last night the
votes had not all been counted and an
adjournment was taken until $50 O'Clock
this morning.
DOWN TO BUSINESS AT LAST
While the votes were being counted
some harsh things were said, which re-
suited in general row. Someone struck
George Vice in the face, and Eugene
Elkus was the first 10 feel Vices wrath.
and they had 1t up and down until they
were separated.
1t is said Vice was struck without pro-
vocation, and he retaliated on the 1irst
one OF the opposition to come within his
reach.
However, nobody was badly hurt, and
representatives of the regular and oppo-
sltlon candidates will be on hand this
morning to sec that there is a tair count of
the ballots. When it is all over things
Will go on as of yore.
