BY C. T. Hughes. Chairman.
Attest: D. J. Mannix. Secretary.
Mr. Hughes said that before adopting
the resolutions it would be necessary
to have a Secretary.
Mr.. Mannix said that before any ac-
ton was taken on that subject he wish
ed to read to the committee the affi-
davit he had read the preceding night
to the other committee, an account of
which had been published in the Rec
ord Union," but the whole of which
had not been seen by some members
of this committee. After reading the
affidavit, he said that, in view of the
statements in it, he moved that the
Secretaryship of Mr.. Alexander be de-
clared vacant. at least temporarily and
that the charges against him be inves-
tigated.
The motion to investigate was car
ried first, Vogel saying that he would
not vote for it, and the date was set for
September Sd, at ) p. m.. the Chairman
being requested to notify Mr. Alexan-
der. On motion Of Mannix, the Secre-
tary was then removed. pending the
investigation, Vogel voting no.
Vogel was nominated by Mannix for
Secretary, but declined to serve, and
Mannix was then chosen
The petition and resolution were then
adopted, the roll being called on re-
quest of Vogel and the proxies of
Brophy and Carroll being voted
Vogel asked by what authority the
proxies of Brophy and Carroll were
voted, and said if they were voted
Kelly should also be allowed to vote.
Mannix said that O'Brien had a let
ter from Carroll, saying that he should
be absent from home for several
months, showing that he considered
this city his home. AS for Brophy, he
was in the States employ and had not
changed his residence or lost his place
on the committee.
A motion that the election be held by
wards, in consonance with the petition,
was carried.
|, 1t was decided to caucus for nomina-
tions for delegates. but the matter Of

THE OLD COMMITTEE MEETS.
THERE ARE TWO RICHMONDS
IN THE FIELD.
They Adopt a Petition for Primary
and Resolution Explaining
Their Action.

The members of the old Democratic
City Central Committee met yesteL-
day afternoon in the office OF =. l.
Hughes, in accordance with notlce
given the evening before by d. j. Man
nix at the meeting of the new COM
mittee.
There were present c. T. Hughes, ID
]. Mannix. p Kelly, Louis Vogel and
Thomas OBrien and Z. L. hughes nelu
a proxy for James Carroll, who mad
been deposed from the committee anu
O'Brien held one for Dennis bfophy'
who had been similarly deposed.
The meeting reconsidered the action
of the committee on accepting the res
ignation some time ago of c. t. Hughes
and he was reinstated as Chairman.
Carroll and Brophy, who had been
dropped on a statement that they were
no longer residents of the city, were
also reinstated. The question of the
membership of Patrick Kelly, who had
been also dropped from the committee
for not attending the meetings also
came up.
Mannix said he had had a conversa-
ton with Kelly, who seemed hurt at
the action of the committee and COM
planned that he had not been notified
of the committee meetings. He be-
neved Kelly had not been notified, as
he said He moved that he be excused
for not attending the meetings and De
considered still member OF the COM
mittee.
Mr.. Vogel asked what about Carroli
and Brophy He thought Kelly llVed
in the city and should have ATTENDED
the meetings as he must have known
of them. He himself had been notified.
Kelly said he had never been noti-
fed of them and did not know of them
until they were past.
Mr.. Hughes said the facts were diff
ferent in the cases of Brophy ana
Carroll. He was satisfied they were
still residents of the city and could
not legally be removed without charges
being presented against them, unless
by force of numbers.
He decided that Kelly was entitled
to vote and thought the best way would
be to investigate the matter officially
as TO whether he received notice or
not His vote was not necessary IN
this matter. however. The next thing
for the meeting to do was to pass upon
the petition. What purported to be the
the CITY Democratic Central Committee
took action last night and adopted
petition for holding a primary by AS
sembly Districts. He had consulted
with friends and they had determined
it would be better to have it by wards
on a ratio of u to /, like the Repub-
licans. He believed the action Of the
other committee was not legal for the
reason that the committee was not a
legal one He had, therefore, made the
necessary computations and an appor-
tionment on the basis of the vote at the
last State election, and had drawn up
a petition for presentation to the Trus-
tees.
