GLEANINGS.
No Caucus Held Yet for the Council
Reorganization.
EVERYTHING in DARKNESS
There is Not Even the Shadow Of a
Slate in View Democrats Laying
Back for a Breach.

There has been a surprising change in
the weather, but the circumstances sur-
rounding the coming re organization of
the Borough Council remain un
changed. Everybody, even the Council
men interested, seem to be as much in Il e
dark as to the shape the organization will
take as they were week ago.
The report that there was a caucus last
night is without found Gtion Several of
the Councilmen who will form the
majority in the new body have been
together in twos aud threes, but at no
time have they met in a body, nor has
there been any attempt to form a slate.
| A caucus to night is not expected. To
day being pay day at the Reading col
lieries and several of the Councilmen who
are to caucus being in business, makes a
formal meeting tonight quite improb
able. One of the interested Councilmen
said tonight that he was quite sure a
caucus would not be held tonight. 1t
would not be surprising if the caucus
should be held tomorrow.
The postponement of the caucus has a
favorable aspect from the Citizens party
standpoint of view. 1t is believed that
the delay is more intentional than other
wise, and that the object is to keep the
Democratic members as much in the dark
as possible as to the slate, so that they
may not have any lines upon which to
direct efforts for break. 1t would not
be surprising if the slate should be kept
profound secret until the very minute
for making nominations in open Council
arrives. The Democratic mem bers profes;
to be perfectly reconciled to fate of no say
in the re organization, but they have also
) been meeting in twos and threes during
the past few days and will not be at a losi
for plan of operation should hitcl
make itself apparent in any part of the
Citizens ranks. There is said to be
standing offer of five of the best appoint
ments to any member of the Citizen
parry who will jump the traces and Civ
the remaining three appointments to tn
Democrats. The ostensible object of thi
big bribe is to save three of the presen
police force from the sinking ship, bu
the real object is to get a hold on the al
pointment of the superintendent of wate
works after Council is re organized.

The knowing ones say it is all fixed, ,

1t is said there is going to be split on

Such little thing like that is not going
to interfere with the harmonious organi-

party.

there is fracture in the ankle. The wife
