PRENDERGAST CALLS on COLRT.
Asks to Have $50 Names stricken From
Rolls in the Fiftll-LOftus Objects.


Joseph f. Prendergast, who is facing
stiff fight at the coming primaries for the
retention of the Tammany leadership of
the Fifth Assembly district, applied yes
terday to Justice Dowlng in the Supreme
Court to have $50 names stricken from the
enrolment list OF the district. Patrick
H. LOTUS. who appeared for George S.
O'Nel, Prendergast's opponent. opposed the
application and explained that the grant
ing Of the application would mean re-
duction Of rs per cent. of the voting popu-
ation Of the district.
In his application n Mr. Prendergast charges
that the men whose names he wanted taken
from the rolls no longer lived in the district
Mr.. LOTUS replied that a. he had not been
served with notice Of the application until
Friday he had been unable to gather all
the aff1davits he needed to refute this
allegation. Justice Bowling thereupon de-
cided that Mr.. LOTUS could have until
Friday at noon to obtain the necessary
afIidavits.
NJ. Warley Platzek appeared yesterday
before Justice Dowling In the Su preme Court
to oppose on application made by Thomas
L. Reynolds to strike ffty-nine names from
the primary rolls Of the Twenty-seventh
Assembly district. Reynolds is endeavor-
ing to wrest the Tammany leadership OF
the district from James j. Martin. Mr..
Platzek argued that the petitioner had
failed to present SUI fficent evidence that the
voters named in the application had moved
out OF the district. Justice Dowling agreed
with this contention and denied the motion
to strike the names from the rolls.

MR.. SCHIEREN AS a CANDIDATE.
The Ex.Mayor at the Head OF the CITY
Ticket Would Helm Local Candidates.

Former Mayor Charles A. Sohieren OF
Brooklyn. who arrived unexpectedly from
Europe yesterday on the steamship Kaiser
Wilhelm H., did not go to his home in that
borough. 1t was said at his Office that he
had probably gone with his son to his sum-
mer home at Islip, L. I. Several prominent
Republican politicians who we're seen
last evening said that nothing definite
was known as to Mr.. Schieren's willing
meas to accept the fusion nomination for
Mayor, but that his views would un-
doubtedly be obtained prior to the fusion
conference tomorrow night
he will be presented as the candidate OF
the Republican organization in Brooklyn
for the May ,ralty. and his claims for the
nomination will be strongly pressed. There
il very little expectation In any quarter
that Mr.. schieren could possibly win, but
the practical statesmen in the Republican
ranks believe that his name at the hea d OF
the city ticket would materially increase
the chances OF electing their looel candidates.
A close personal friend Of MIR. Schieren
intimated last night that he could not be
induced to make the race against Mayor
Mcclellan.

The primary fight for leadership In the
Twenty-seventh Assembly district got a
good start last night at the headquarters
Of the Democratic organization OF the dis
trict, at 1O4 West Forty-seventhstreet.C Chair

for the meeting some time ago and men came
in droves to indorse James j. Martin, for
twenty-five years leader Of the district.
The speakers were George F. Roesch
and First Deputy Police Commissioner
Thomas F. McAvoy. Mr.. Roesch pre-
dicted the reelection Of Mayor Mcclellan
and also that the next Mayor would be
the next Governor. His reference to Sena-
tor Depew and Justice Warren B. Hooker
as exponents OF the great system were
cheered to the echo.
Deputy Commissioner McAvoy read what
he termed an essay, which was almost
entirely devoted to the police record OF
Thomas L. Reynolds, who Is fighting Martin
for the leadership. He said as preface
that Mr.. Reynolds was now suing him for
he would be suing for $1,000 more,
This man Reynolds, said the Deputy
Commissioner, SIS a fourfusher have
here little essay which shall offer in evil
denoe and want any or all OF you 70 mark
the names and addresses in 1t and II you

He then went on to read his essay, which
asserted that the said Reynolds had cheated
a timber concern in Harlem, that Reynolds
had juggled with two forged notes for
500, ,OOO that he was at present under in
dictment for postal frauds and that he
had been the hacker Of a so-called get
rich quick concern which operated in the
Browning Building. at Thirty-second street
and Broadway, which was raided by the
police -and which is now under police
Investigation added MIR. McAvoy.
Chairman Platzek concluded the meeting
by saying that Reynolds was "a man without
shame or honor" and called upon all Demo-
Gratis in the district to turn out on Sept.
10 at the polls to vote for James ]. Martin.
Two years ago Reynolds made similar
fight in the Twenty third district against
McAvoy, but since then Reynolds has
moved into the Twenty seventh district.

The German American Municipal League

chairman Of the Kings county republican

slider him clothed with sufficient authority
to treat with it on fusion. Mr., Brenner
had sent the league letter endeavoring

There were thirty.four dele gates present.
two from each OF the Assembly dis
tricts of Kings county. The session was
held in Arion Hall behind closed doors,
but the action was said to have been taken
without dissent.
The reply to Mr.. Brenner's letter informs
him that an invitation to the league to Join
the fusion conference should, come from
the conference committee and not from a
single political organization. 1t also re-
minds him that the committee invited the
German. American League, an offshoot OF
the Municipal League, and asks that the

RUSSIA WON'T PAY INDEMNITY

Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 9. - The
Russian and japanese peace missions
have submitted themselves to intro
ductiOn, and likewise to all of the cere-
monies of welcome and reception on
the part of the United States govern
ment and the state of New Hamp-
shire. and are now facing each other
for the purpose of ending the war in
the Far East, and if possible consum-
mating a permanent peace between
the two great nations.
Demitri Pokotiloff, Russian minister
to China, arrived here late last night
and was Immediately presented to the
Russian plenipotentiaries While
coming through Canada one of the
cars of Mr.. PokOtiloff's train jumped
the track.
Today they met in the naval stores
building of the Portsmouth navy yard.
The Russian plenipotentiaries exam
ined the credentials and powers which
the emperor of Japan has delegated
TO Baron KOmura and Minister Taxa

potentiaries scrutinized the powers
which the Russian emperor had con-
ferred upon Mr.. Witte and Baron
Rosen.
1t is thought that at today's meet

sis on which the representatives Of the

they, too, were not remiss in respond
ing to the hurrahs of the crowds.
The ENJOYS were met at the court
house by Third Assistant Secretary Of

Baron Komura. The senior Russian
commissioner presented his suite to

likewise. Governor McLane's formal
