to Mr.. Mitchell That Body Will
Welcome Evidence.
fSoME OBJECT TO THE PLAN
Mixing in Politics" Not Fa-
vored, and 1t Is Suggested
That Matter Be Dropped
Until After Election.

John Purroy Mitchell yesterday received
letter from Evert Jansen Wendell, fore
man Of the october grand jury, inviting
him to appear before the jury and tell
anything he might know about plans for
bringing in repeaters for the coming cleo
ton. Several days ago Charles F. Muir
pby. whose name was mentioned by Mr..
Mitchell in connection with the COLOMBIA
ton plans wrote to District Attorney
Whitman and asked for the summoning
OF Mr. Mitchell before the grand jury.
Mr.. Mitchell said ne would reply to Mr..
lWendens letter to-day.
"WNl you appear before the grand
sury?" Mr.. Mitchell was asked
~ can't say now" he replied. 1.-The in
formation / could give would come much
better from others. as ! did not get my
information first hand"
Mr.. Wendells letter was as follows:
1T having been brought TO the atten-
ton Of the regular grand jury for Octo-
Der, reporting to the Court Of General
Sessions, that you are reported as hav-
ing made public utterances in speeches on
October IS last that plans had been made
10 import an army Of repeaters into this
city with a view to fraudulent voting at
the approaching election, ! am directed
by the grand jury TO inform you that
their doors are open 10 you. and they in
vite you TO attend any Of their sessions
for the purpose of laying before them
any evidence you may possess as TO any
violation or intended violation of'the cleo
ton laws
The grand jury yesterday asked the ad-
vice Of District Attorney Whitman in re-
gard TO carrying out the instructions
given by Judge Malone in General Ses-
sions 10 investigate the Mitchell charges
OF colonization. The District Attorney
would not discuss the matter, but no sub
penas were issued after his withdrawal
from the grand jury room. Several MEM
bers OF the grand jury are said to favor
dropping the matter until after election
that there may be no criticism Of the
grand jury for mixing in politics.

mitchell FOR M'ANEM
AND PRENDERGAST, TOO
Fusion Champion, Quizzed by
independence Leaguers,
Makes Position Clear.
CERTAIN OF VICTORY NOW
Thrills Crowds at Rallies by
Prediction That Murphyism
Is Doomed Both in
City and State.

John Purroy Mitchell, preceded by
speakers at the Independence Lea que mass
meeting last night at Cooper Union who
had denounced his running mates, Prem
dergast and McAneny. removed himself
from somewhat anomalous position.
when, in response to a question, he de-
clared himself still supporting the two
fusion nominees.
He had come into the hall after James
A. Allen, who presided, had characterized
Prendergast and McAneny as traitors to
the Independence League. Mitchell. who
had not heard the remarks, had finished
his speech when a man in the hall rose
and asked
How about Prendergast7"
I'm for him." was his unhesltating re-
Spouse.
The crowd laughed and the incident
passed over.
Later in his speech Mr.. Mitchell de-
clared he wanted to see the entire fusion
ticket elected.
Mr.. Mitchell, for the first time In his
campaign, announced publicly that he was
sure OF his election. A crowd Of several
thousand VINO mao sWdTfneu lHto Nlplo
Hall. 10th street and Third avenue, The
Bronx. to hear the next chapter in the
disclosures made by John A. Hennessy
had been brought to a high pitch Of en-
thusiasm. and when the fusion head OF
the ticket entered his words were the
spark to the powder.
Two weeks from to-day" he said,
will be the end Of Murphy in New York.
We're in this fight not because we think
II is a mere political campaign. not even
because the theories OF government are at
discussion, but because II Is the fight OF
the people to protect their property and
themselves from the exploitation by Muir
ply and his associates who have found
their opportunity in the government or
the city
