John McElroy Withdraws

ROCHESTER NEXT PLACE

Atlantic City, N. j., Sept, 23.-The
Grand Army of the Republic in the
first business session of its annual en-.
cahpment here elected it's three high.
est officers and tentatively selected
Rochester, N. Y, as the next place for
the annual meeting.
John e. Gilman, once a member of
the Fighting Twelfth" regiment of
Massachusetts, was elected command
er In chief to succeed Samuel r. Van
SAINT of Minnesota.
The only other candidate, John Nc
Elroy of Washington, withdrew his
name before the ballotlng began.
Charles E. Burrows of Rutherford,
N. j., was chosen senior vice com
mander in chief and William James Of
Jacksonville, Fla, Junior vice COM
mander in chief.
McE1roy's speech in declining to op-
pose Gilman in the contest for COM
mander in chief caused a stir. He
said he had become a candidate at the
solicitation Of thousands of Grand
Army men and hat he had set out to
win the honor in a fair way, There
upon, the Washington man continued,
he had found himself the target of
the most persistent, %raneorous calum-
MES, falsehoods and innuendoes' which
reflected upon his integrity in many
ways. The charges, he added; were
made on such short notice that he had
no time to prepare a defense before
the annual encampment.
McElroy exonerated Gilman and his
faction from any part in circulating
the reports, which, he said, he hoped
would be investigated by the ~organiza-
ton. Despite his withdrawal Of his
candidacy 216 votes were cast for Nc
Elroy. Gilman received 667.

his teens, running away from home to
do so. Fletcher Webster, son of Dan
iel Webster, was colonel Of the regi-
ment, and the generals under whom
young Gilman served include Pope,
Mcclellan, Hooker and Meade. In
Gettysburg a Confederate shell blew
one of Gilman's arms off. He became
a member of the G.. A. r. in 1868,
Mr.. Van SAINT made 1t plain the most
important question for the delegates
to consider in the executive session of
the encampment, which was held on
the steel pier, was pensions. From in
formation at hand the pension commit
tee of the G.. A. Il. finds there are
about 562, 900 names of veterans On
the federal pension lists and that there
are $4,000 civil war veterans of the
Union army who draw no money from
the government. Hence the number of
survivors of the northern forces totals
62T,0o0.
