Dispute in the, Auxiliary Far From
Settlement.

The disagreement and feeling that has
developed in the local Ladies' Auxiliary
to the U. v. L. was the principal TOPIC
OF conversation among the ladies of the
organization yesterday, but not one word
Oh the subject would they say for pub
Iication.
That the matter should get to the ear
of the outside world is, in itself, the sub
iect of much unfayorable criticism. As
detailed in The Times or yesterday, Mrs
yliuda w. Ford, the president OF the local
auxiliaf y, and the president, Mrs. Dunn,
are seriously at cruss-questions on the
subject OF their relative rights and duties
as officers, Mrs. DunB claiming that Mrs
Ford IS seeking TO >:rrrugate To herself the
powers Of both president and treasurer.
Mrs. Ford Is accused of trying to run
things in general, SO TO speak, and much
bitterness and heart burning has resulted
The ladies OF the order having taken sides
in the difficulty and in championing the
causes OF their respective favontes, have
bred such ASSIGNMENT and jealousy as
threatens to disrupt the encampment and
even more serious trouble.
The national encampmenth having refused
to consider MIS-. Dunn's charges against
Mrs. Ford, and, indeed, having refused
