rBy Telegraph 10 The Tribune


Greenwich Conn. June 22.-Much excitement has
been created here BY a monkey which has appeared
in a number Of houses hereabout. and many people
particularly women, sleeping tonight. despite
the sitting heat with all OF the doors and windows
tightly closed The monkey. the appearance Of
which reported TO the police YESTERDAY IS much
larger than those ordinarily with hand organs
and shows disposition TO fight. Strangely enough.
in every house where It has appeared the men were
absent from home and the women badly
frightened
The monkey appeared first in the home of Mrs.
" T Bouchelle. wealthy New York woman. The
animal went boldly toward Mrs Boucheile and
other woman, chattering and showing its teeth as

A bulldog in adjoining room rushed at the
monkey but the latter advance ed toward the dog

HUNDRED IN HARMONY
Choice of Chairman Sch1cab's Sue
cessor Ndrroued to -Four Men.

Gustav H schwab, temporary chairman OF the
Committee of one Hundred says that the retire
ment of four prominent men from the committee
was due to natural causes, and that there Is COM
plete harmony in the committee
while we regretted losing every one or the rour
their letters OF resignation were complimentary
10 the committee as a whole and sincere in their
belief that the outcome of the work undertaken
would be successful that in the least feel
disappointed said Mr.. SChwab. 1T would be
rather unusual if something did not occur in the
affairs Of one hundred business men that would
cause three or four of them 10 change their plans
The impression that men put on the COM
mttee without being consulted IS entirely wrong.
"Of the three men who resigned Felix Narburs
was the only one who did not accept by letter and
in his case the man who suggested him said that
Mr. warburg was anxious take active part
unable 10 change plans that had already been made,
and Paul Fuller was confronted with unforeseen
business matters. Allan Rohinson's letter explains
itself"
Commenting on the character and standing Of the
of organized labor in the committee
Mr. Schwab said:
Nearly all the labor men the committee are
citizens whom I have met frequently and found to
be high class men
II is understood that the choice for chairman OF
the Committee of One Hundred has narrowed to
Eugene Outerbridge and Henry Phipps of Man
haitian, and ex-Mayor Charles A. Schieren and
Henry Hentz of Brooklyn. Mr.. Schwab served
notice on his colleagues on the retirement of Robert
c. Ogden that he would not be able to serve longer
than necessary to organize the movement. 1t IS
rumored that Raymond V Ingerso, Of Brooklyn,
Will be the chairman of the executive committee.
