He Has Been Betrayed.

Chicago, Ill, Dec. 13.-Two thousand
women in mass meeting at the Auditor

Young as superintendent of schools of
Chicago and adopted resolutions call

alluded TO Mrs. Young's successor
when she said: I'VE depIore the ap-

had knowledge of the plot and has
gladly accepted its results"
Miss Jane Adams blamed Mayor
Harrison, who appointed the board of
education for the situation resulting in
Mrs. Young's retirement. A letter was
read from the mayor saying he SYM
pathized with the women and he had
been betrayed by men he trusted.
The mayor said he had asked the
corporation counsel to ascertain if the
action of the board was not in viola
ton of their own rules and the law
under which the board operates.
Stoop's election, it is said, hinges on
this and if it is found not against the
regulations, will have to stand.
Five Members Out.
The designations of five members of
the school board, all of whom are said
to have voted against the reelection
of Mrs. Ella Flagg Young as superin-
tendent, were accepted last night by
Mayor Harrison, to take effect at
once.
They are John c. Harding. Charles
o. Sethness, Harry A. Lipsky, James
r. Dibelka and Henry w. Huffman.
The designations have been held by
the mayor since the appointment of
the board.
In accepting these designations,
Mayor Harrison stated plainly that
he would remove other opponents of
Mrs. Young if he had the power.
Mrs. Young intimated that she
would consent to return as superin-
tendent of schools, if John d. Shoop,
the newly elected superintendent,
should resign and if she could be as
