EXTRA.
q O'CLOCK.
DEMOCRATIC
TANGLE
HEARING

This afternoon the differences between
the two factions OF the Democratic party
were threshed out before the board Of
canvassers and registration at the city
hall, there having been a meeting OF the
Democratic state central committee at
Col p. II. Quinn's office In the Woods
building at 2 o'clock on the same sub
3ect. The factions al odds over the
recent meeting for organization In Ar
canum hall. which resulted in double
organization. were both summoned TO be
there and state their cases, the executive
committee proceeding under the first
slause OF rule IS OF the rules governing
the Democratic state central committee.
This rule. which provides that faetional
controversies not covered and defined by
the Rhode Island statutes. should be de-
cided by the state central committee or
lis executive committee was called 10 the
attention OF the board OF canvassers Sat
Nrday in a letter from Col. Quinn, which
asked that no action IN recognition of
either faction be taken before the ex-
ecutive committee meeting.
The board OF canvassers today acknowl-
edged the receipt OF the letter on Satur-
day and at the same time called a hear
ing for o'clock. when the parties could
appear 10 set forth their sides and tell
OF the occurrences that night at the
double meeting.
The board sat with the advice OF the
city's law department. as there were some
very knotty points at issue In the counter
claims OF the regular Democrats and the
Dorney-ON Neil factions.
The former set forth that the session
held by the Dorney crowd was not legal
meeting OF the committee, as but 70 OF
the legal members OF the committee were
present 10 vote, and claim that for num-
Der OF other reasons the canvassers
should not take cognizance OF this gather
ing A quorum OF the committee was not
present, they assert
This faction issued a number OF sum-
rnonses 10 witnesses TO be present nj this
hearing and had a number OF other eye-
witnesses there.
The Dorney crowd was also adequately
represented and there was plenty OF legal
talent on both sides.
1t is imperative that an early sottlement
of the difficulties between the two FAC
tions be made, because the O'Neil faction
has a city committee meeting called Tor
tonight 10 set dates for caucuses.
AS one set or caucuses have already
been called, untold trouble might DO
caused by fixing of different dates aud
upon different tickets.

WHY HARLAN LOST.

T He CHICAGO newspapers that on
L posed the candidacy of Judge
Dunno i'm the recent campaign for the
mayoralty are stil explaining. The
Chicago Record Herald places most Of
the blame on the shoulders of the Re
publicans who knitted" Mr.. Harlan be
cause he ran as an independent candi-
date against the regular Republican
nominee some years ago. This may
have had something to do with the re-
suit for voters do not easily forget
such offenses against party regularity
But Judge Dunno was elected mayor
OF Chicago because he stood for i'm
mediate ownership of the street rail-
ways and against any franchise extern
sions. Il is true that Mr.. Harlan ran
on platform favOring municipal own
ership. but his promises were extreme
" vague. He thought that at some
time in the indefinite future and by
some method yet to be ascertained. the
people OF Chicago might acquire the
street railway system.
Judge Dune in his speeches said that
he would take steps at once to secure
the railways. There was no equivoca-
lion in his utterances. His high stand
ing as a jurist-he has been on the
bench i'm Chicago since 1S92-worked
powerfully in his favor. The people be-
lieved that a man of Judge DUNES abil-
ity would find the way and they voted
for him in spite Of the arguments Of the
opposition. The issue i'm Chicago was
not cleaner streets. the suppression of
gambling, the driving out OF criminals.
It was municipal ownership only. and
on that issue Judge Dunno won by
plurality of nearly $4,000 votes.
lie has already taken the initial
steps. The other day he sent a cable
