slider Plans for Canvass
ing County.

Completion Of plans for a house-to-
house of Essex County will
probably be the principal business
transacted tonight by the Democratic
County Committee at a meeting which
will be held in Johnson's Hail. in Plane
street.
Some of the workers have already
finished their part of the canvass, but
there is still much to be done before
any definite result will be Known.
Tonight districts will be apportioned
to the various election officers, who
will be asked to get to work at once.
Some local Democrats are wonder
ing today whether the resignation Of
William f.. Hoffman as treasurer of
the county committee would be forth
coming. Richard ]. Franz, of the
Eighth Ward, is now performing the
duties of the Office, having been tenn
porarily. chosen for the place by the
executive committee pending the &C.
ton of the county committee tonight.
Suggestions will be heard from the
committeeman for the conduct of the
campaign, which will swing into unre-
lenting activity this week.

mittee-Snyder and Molter
Are Candidates.

tee OF the Thirteenth Ward, which was

the Democratic County Committee is to
have a meeting. The members of the
ward committee will be in attendance
at the county committee meeting and the
ward meeting will be held at the same

Ihe business to come before the ward
committee will probably be the resigna-
ton of Julius A. Meyer as a member of
the ward executive committee. Both ne
and William Schueler, the other member
of the executive committee, reside in dis
tricts that were in the old Thirteenth
Ward. while the new ward contains three
districts that were in the old Sixth Ward.
1t is conceded by all elements that one
of the executive committeeman should
come from the districts that were in the
Sixth Ward. Mr.. Meyer having been
honored by being named for the Assembly,
is willing to resign as the membe of the
executive committee. When his resigna-
ton is given in the question of choosing
a successor will come UP. The candidates
under consideration are Rudolph Molter,
of the first district. and Frank Snyder, OF
the second district. Each OF them Is
strongly supported In his own district and
they are trying 10 gain support from the
other district leaders.

DIR. ked Is much annoyed by countless
appeals from beggars, who enormously be-
lieve that he has been oosen by the oil
man to dispense the latter's gold. This i'm
preston they have gained through an ar

DIR. AIKEN had the following to say last
night, after his sermon, regarding the an
Ioyance:
From all over the world, and especially
England said the minister, II have re-
ceived not fewer than 5000 begging letters
since that ridiculous article was printed III
London England has sent about 2,0o OF
them. My mails IA been so burdened
that 1 had to request the New York POST
office authorities to deliver no more regis
tered letters to me, for many of the re-
quests for Mr.. Rockefeller's money are
registered to insure my receiving them.
'If 1 had had nothing else to do 1 might
read som of the letters, for many of them
are interesting. Among the first was one
from a very pretty English grill know
she was pretty because she said SO. She
left me her picture in substantiation, but
1 still consider the proof insufficient. Well.
she was engaged to a worthy young man.
she wrote, but they could not marry be-
cause she made but ten shillings a week,
anda her sweetheart had to support hts
father and mother. A music hall manager
had offered her E5 a week, but she hest
tated, because she fully understood the
temptations to which she would be sub
jected. In this dilemma she read the item
that said l was to be the official alomer
of Mr.. Rockefeller. So she wrote me for
e10O to marry on, and made it clear that
If 1t was not sent and she fell, through
accepting the tempting music hall offer,
the moral responsibility would rest on Mr..
Rockefeller and me.

NO TRANSFERS STRIKE.
Business Agent Refutes Rumor-satis-
fed with Local Treatment.

Joseph Bowling, treasurer and business
agent Of Team Drivers Union No, AIS. said
today hat there was no truth in the re-
port that the members of his l~organiza-
ton were going on a strike. He said that
the report was due to the discharge OF
a tenmster in the employ of a commission
house in Commerce street, because the
man would not stop wearing the button
of the union, as is required by the or
ganization.
The commission merchant did not real
ly discharge the man for wearing the
button" said Mr.. Bowling, because he
told me today when I called upon him 1T
was more because he was opposed to
union organizations as a whole than any
thing else. owing to the difficulty that
he had a short time ago with several
building trades unions, when he was build
ing a house, over the employment of sew
eral non-union men.
w have not asked the commission
merchants for an Increase in wages, be-
cause as a matter of fact they are now
paying more than the unions scale Of
wages.
w will hold "a special meeting Sun
day afternoon at Wiedenmayer's Park
Hall, and in all probability will taxi UP
the case of the man discharged today be-
cause he refused to stop wearing the
unions button"

Senator Everett Colby today heard from
State Senator Page. of New York, who
had been invited to speak tonight at the
opening of the Republican county and city

would give Monday, October Is. to the Es-

1t was decided to work UP a special mass
meeting for that date, at which Senator
Page will be the principal speaker.
He will dwell on public utilities legisla-

passage Of the Hughes public utilities bill.
No details have been thought of yet, but 1t

cratic party by reason OF the eowardly
of their respective platforms and
candidates on the excise question. In my
Judgment the present Democratic candi-
date for Governor is ~endeavoring to sneak
into ONCE by means of the same disgrace
full tactics. while Judge Fort has come out
sduarely in favor of the enforcement and
maintenance of the Bishops law
Mr.. Mason also favors the same law. but
Mr.. Mason has no chance of being elected.
I therefore believe that all citizens who
are opposed to tampering with that law
should support Judge Fort and thus Insure
the election of a Governor who will serve
the moral Interests of the State. The cleo
of Mr.. Katzenbach would be a public
disaster. and a vote thrown away on Mr..
Mason will help the Democratic candidate.
Yours respectfully
