INCREASE VOTED DOWN
Republican City Committee Will Not
Enlarge This Year.

The republican city committee will
not expand for another year, at least.
A last opportunity to obtain the sane
ton of the committee to the proposition
to increase the membership in each
ward from three to five, was offered at
the regular meeting last night
George r. Tuson of ward moved
that former vote, whereby a motion
to increase the size of the commit
tee, resulted in a tie vote be recon-
sidered, but the motion was lost by a
vote Of IL to 9. ]. B. Stone of ward
. made a strong argument in behalf of
charging the committee, bearing down
on the fact that older men in the ranks
appreciate the desirability Of such a
course, and that some of the younger
ones would realize it later on. He
claimed thatthe convention of last year
which recommended the increase,
showed the sentiment of some of the
strongest men in the city. Eloquence
was of no avail, however, and the mat
ter goes over for next years commit

Printed statements were issued at
headquarters last night giving the

cester have five members, at least, and
in many cases more from each ward.

New York, Nov 1S.-The 18th annual
horse show was opened at Madison
Square Garden, today, with all of the
brilliancy and beauty that has charac-
terized these events during recent
years. The attendance was light in the
morning, but this afternoon it exceed
ed 1900 persons and tonight nearly 5000
persons were present, fashionable So
clety being well represented On every
side there were to be seen in the fine
costumes of the women evidence of the
late styles from Paris
The morning hours were mainly Civ
en- up to exercise and accustoming a
lot of jumpers to getting over the bards.
After luncheon the work of the day be-
gan with fine entry list of forty odd
in the carriage class, exceeding 1873 and
suitable for heavy work in harness. At
ter this the trotting men had a carni-
val with an admirable exhibit of road
sters in harness. Then saddle horses
came.
The judging all through the after
noon was prompt and decisive, and
there was little to find fault with. The
afternoon session closed with a small
exhibition of private hanson cabs. The
evening program was short, carriage
horses, saddle horses, tandems and
Jumpers filled the hours between half
past eight and half past ten o'clock.
