That is new organization with subsidiaries
In all assembly districts. A full representa-
ton of 30 turned out for the meeting
Their sole object is to bring about the
overthrow of Leader McCarren. Recently
the new organization rejected an invitation
from McCarren for conference because
McCarren had refused to divvy up with the
new organization in the matter of the ap-
pointment of election inspectors.
At the meeting last night George Z S.
Williams was made chairman and then
there were lot of speeches. All the orators
denounced McCarren and Timothy l.. Wood
ruff, the republican state chairman. jointly
1t was announced that because McCarren
has such a weli-oied machine and such a
grip on the election inspectors a fight on
him at the primaries would be foolish. so

Picked Up at Twelfth Hole.

NEW YORK, September 13.-Harry Shep-
pard Stone. who has been living at the Van
Cortlandt Park golf house for some time.

seemed to have any occupation other than
that of playing golf Proprietor O'Connell
says that the young man was very polite
and when Stone presented check for 500
he cashed 1T.
The check was drawn on the First Ma

neying to Albany to lobby for a salary bill,
as they did last year.
Deductions from teachers salaries for
absences are invested in the teachers re-
tirement fund AS most absences are
caused by sickness. it is the sick teachers
who are supporting the fund. Under the
law a balance in the fund of 100000 is
required. According to figures prepared by
Secretary Best of the board of retirement
the balance now is 81 ,102. G231 10. Because
of this surplus the teachers demanded that
the absence rules be modified and the by
laws committee admitted the justice of the
request.
Ii was said yesterday that the bylaws
committee would probably modify the rules
governing absences due to Illness, and make
more drastic those relating to other alb
sences. In this way the income of the re-
t:rement fund will be kept about normal
ard the purpose of diSciplinng the teach
ing force will be realized. There is some
doubt as to whether the committee can le-
gally take this step. and the dispute is
likely to cause serious complications.
