tions of the Orient and several other ma

managers Of the parade to leave out the
feature just before the start was made. The
procession started from the exposition

way without difficulty to Tangier temple,

Mr.. HitchcOck's Opinion.
Mr.. Hitchcock made an impassioned argu-
ment in which he charged that the whole
scheme was a deliberate and premeditated
purpose to seize the patronage Of the ex-
position and get II into single hands. He
charged that for months Mr.. Foster had
been personally canvassing the members OF
the board to override the executive commit
tee and secure greater power. He denounced
such a course as an outrage, partaking of
petty politics for an employe who took the
position for the wages 1t offered to at
tempt to secure more power for the prestige
it would give him in the approaching cam
paign.
General Manderson challenged the state
ments OF Mr. Hitchcock. He said he knew
very little OF Mr.. Foster personally, having
met him but few times, but he said he
had had private conversation with him
early in the current week and he quoted
the conversation at length, showing clearly
and conclusivelX that Mr.. Foster not only
had not sought She enlargement of his
powers, but that he shrank from the sddi-
uonal burdens which such enlargement
would thrust upon him. General Mander-
son then said he took exceptions to the
wording OF the resolution which had been
offered, and he offered as q substitute the
resolution which hs had o6srsd ct the last
