Is Called.


President Schiffmann, of the common
council, has ordered the issuance of a
call for a meeting of that body to be
held next Tuesday afternoon at O'Clock,
the object being the election of a presi-
dent and other, business dependent upon
the reorganization of the council.
A new turn in the race for the leader
snip OF the council was made public yes
terday, when Assemblyman Haas an
nounced positively that he was not d
candidate, and wou- not allow his name
10 be used. DR. Schfffmann is all light
sa1d Mr.. Haas, ..'and we will reuse to
listen to his refusal to run. There is no
doubt about. his reelection. AS to my
pelng a candidate, l never sought the
office, and do not want it. 1 shall insist
on the reelection of Mr.. Schiffmann."
With Assemblyman Haas refusing to
allow the. use of his name. the situation
has practically narrowed down to the
reelection of DIR. Schifmann o. the com
pulsory advancement of Mr.. Haas. The
presidency will go to enc of these tw2,
unless DIR. Whitcomb. of the assembly,
sees fit to enter the arena.
The Democratic members of the council
concede the fact that they have no
votes to lose, and consequently there
VIII be no struggle fer the office on their
part With the Republicans, however, It
is dlfIerent. Every one of them has deep
III his heart a desire to land the prize,
and, though Aid. Holt is the caucus can
didate, a split is certain
Even II Dr. Schifnlam positively re-
fuses reelection and Assemblyman Haas
adheres to his determination to not al
low the use of his name, there is general
speculation to the effect that there viii
be deadlock, and President Schiffmann
IN consequence will simply be allowed to
continue In his office undisturbed.
