 There is gloom in the camp of the Brooklyn and Town Plot committee and if it were not for some of the cooler heads at the meeting Thursday n couple of the most active members of the organization would now be out side the breastworks. The fight was and is between John Henderson and Hans Rasmussen. Hans does not like the way things have been going at the sessions at the lyceum and he thinks that unless parliamentary methods are used to conduct the meetings of the committee it will eventually go to ruin, although up to the present time it has prospered under the lead ership of John Henderson. But al though Mir Henderson has proved himself capable chairman still there are others besides Hans who wants the meetings. of the organization car. ried on differently in the future than they have been in the past. They as- sert that Mir Henderson pays no at- tention to motions. if they are not to his liking. while he claims that such Is not the case. He believes in giving everyone chance of talking on subject before it is put to a vote. In this manner he thinks the final vote Is really the sentiment of the majority and there is little cause for complaint The matter has been hanging fire since Thursday night. At one time during the session it looked as if Mfr Henderson would leave the chair. We want this meeting carried. on un- der parliamentary rules" said Ras- mussen. If you insist on conducting under parliamentary meth- ods. you will have to get a new chair man." replied Mir Henderson. At this 1 point other members interfered and peace reigned at last for time. Each l man has his supporters> Non the com mittee, but the men will undoubted- |y patch up these little differences. and go along peacefully as in the be- ginning.
