EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETS.
Headquarters VIII Continue In This
CITY.

The executive committee held a brief
meeting in the Century Club rooms after
the adjournment of the convention. Messrs.
N. A. Fletcher, of Grand Rapids, and w.
c. Cornwell, of Buffalo, were added to the
committee. A resolution was passed author
izing Chairman Hanna to continue the cam
paign for the passage of the commissions
bill upon the lines that it has been begun,
and pledging the active assistance of every
member of the committee.
The headquarters of the committee will
be removed from the Denison House to one
of the office buildings in a few days and
the campaign will be actively resumed The
speeches made at this convention have CIV
en- material fo- many valuable documents,
which will be got out and given wide dis
tribution in the near future. 1t is probable
that a brief and simple statement of the
purposes to be accomplished by the COM
mission plan will be printed. The executive
committee Will be gradually enlarged until
1t contains one member from each State and
the States will be organized for the purpose
of more readily reaching the people.
Nobody was more pleased with the sue
ceSsful outcome of the convention than
Chairman Hanna. 1T exceeded our hopes
in every particular" said he. 1.-THE attend
ance was large and representative and the
spirit of SteadfaSt patriotism and enthu-
siasm was manifest. The ringing indorse-
ment of the plan given with such striking
unanimity will put renewed courage in the
heart of every man who believes in sound

CHICAGO, Jan. 26.-Otto Klatt, a book
binder living at 991 West Chicago avenue,

that about II o'clock on the night of May

dence on Hermitage avenue, a woman came
out of the house, which, he believes, was
Luetgerts, and crossed the street in front
of his rig. Klatt says heI heard the gate
slam. and before ne could see her the woman
was almost under the horsGs feet. She
reached her hand up to stop the horse,
said Klatt, land / called out to her to look
out or I'll run over you. She made no re-
ply, but went on across the street" The
witness said that the woman mad pack
age under her arm and was about his sizeL
klatt said he could not see the woman
clearly enough to identify her, either per-
sonaly or by photograph. Klatt told fair
ly straight story, and his testimony seemed
to impress the jury more than that of any
other witness yet on the stand, Luegert
himself not excepted.
