Delay Signing Petitions
DIR. D. T. Malaby, chairman of the re-
call committee of one hundred. states
tonight that more than one-half of the
signatures needed have been secured to
the several petitions now in circulation.
1t is stated, however, that many peo-
pie who are friendly to the movement
are hesitating in the hope that the mass
meeting of the board of trade called for
tomorrow night may find some way of
bringing about a settlement of the vex-
ing problem and that if nothing comes
of the meeting they will sign the pc
titions as the last step. officials Of
the board of trade are earnestly striv
ing to set at rest the claim made in
some quarters that that organization
is behind the recall campaign. The eX-
act language of the call issued today
for the mass meeting in stating the OBJ
ject of the gathering is ito discuss and
decide on the employment by the board
of competent counsel to advise on all
the legal points involved in the pur-
chase of the east and west side water
companies. The desire is to obtain adj
ditional information for the benefit of
the board of trade, and of the city au-
thoritieS and of the public. Speeches
will be limited to five minutes. The re-
call will not be a subject for discussion
and any reference to it will be con-
sdered out of order"

tured arm, a number of severe scalp
wounds and the loss of several teeth.
Mr. Taper was in the smoking car
when the accident occurred and was
thrown to the floor in the aisle. When

Mrs. G. NJ. Barber of $40 Oakland ave-
nue. We're also unlucly sharers in the
accident. Mrs. Barber lost several
teeth and several stitches were neces-
sary to close a severe cut on her lip.

Great Influx of Tourists
The several hotels of the city report
that during the last two or three days
a great tide of tourists has set in and
that accommodations are being rapidly
taken. The Raymond Whtcomb ex-
cursion of yesterday brought fifty
guests to the Hotel Green for the re-
mainder of the winter season, and the
outlook for a crowded house during the
remaining months of the winter are
good The Hotel Raymond is already
well filled as is the Maryland and
kilograms from intending guests en-
gaEing rooms are coming in at a
great rate Each Of these hotels claim
that the indications are that the month
will close with a greater registration
of guests than al the corresponding
time last year. The lesser hotels OF
the city are not behind and report a
very satisfactory business. The cause
of the sudden influx of tourists is be-
heVed to be the equally sudden coming
of severe winter weather in the east
and middle west Today and yesterday
were busy days for the real estate deal
sactions and rentals are reported.
