FRIENDS OF PEACE
ALMOST CREATE WAR
DR.. Lehmacher Takes off His
Coat at u Meeting Of
Double Hyphens.
THEN PUTS 1T ON AGAIN

NEWARK, y. j., Aug. 27.-Dr. FAM
Lehmacher didn't really mean to punch
former Mayor william II. +. Fielder
when he took his coat off last night,
but everybody In Newark who has a
hyphen anywhere about his person Is
wondering whether the Friends of Peace
are going to be able to live up to their
name at future meetings. II was a
meeting OF the Friends OF Peace at
Kruger Auditorium that nearly broke
up in a fight when DR.. FAM took his
coat off.
II Mr.. Fielder hadn't said a good word
for President Wilson-despite the fact
that It was a strictly Irish-German-
American gathering nv hyphens
there)-there wouldn't have been h
trouble. Also he shouldn't ave mem
toned preparedness. But he did BOTH
as follows
This country should work for pre-
paredness against war. President vii
son has observed the proper course In
keeping us out OF war, bur we should
be able to defend ourselves against
war; he said-aud thereby started the
rumpus that brought the Friends OF
Peace to their feet and sent the little
white dove out the windOw
Dr. FAM Lehmacher arose and let
! everybody in the hall and for a block
around know that he wouldn't stand
for anything like that. Others arose
too and ordinations In Plattdeutsch
and Gaelic filed the air. DIR. Leh-
| macher took of his coat and the irish
element held its breath ecstatically. IL
looked like a fight.
But Mr.. Fielder was equal TO the
situation. Calmly he walked over 10

~smiling-aud the doctor put 1t on. Thst
was all there was to that, but twas
a tense moment when Or. FAM o
his coat on.
The purpose OF the meeting was to
elect delegates TO the Peace Conference
In Chicago. Besides doing That, ANA m
structing them to he sure and protest
against the shipment OF munitions to the
bell gerents. the Friends of Peace found
time 10 enounce Col. Roosevelt roundiy

Some of capt. Schultz's hearers APP
plauded, but many scratched their heads
obviously. There were several speeches
against preparedness. some in German
and a motion to instruct the delegates

MAYoRLESS CITY RUNS ON.
Question NJ Luxury or Necessity
May he settled.

New York city has no Mayor. II
hasn't had one since early yesterday
afternoon. 1t will have none until Mon
day. Is a Mayor n necessity or n luxury.
BY deprivation the city is finding out. SO
far nothing has happened that a Mayor
could avert.
John Purroy Mitchell Is at PlattsburR,
to stay until September 6. So much for
him. George McAheny left New York
at ~ 80 o'clock yesterday afternoon and
ceased to he acting Mayor when a New
York Central train shot him across the
city line on his way to a Lake George
vacation. We shan't see him again until
September IA.
The charter says tina In the absence
of the Mayor and the President of the
BOARD OF Aldermen the acting ago
shall be the Aldermanic vice-chairman
That means Henry II. Curran. But Mr..
Curran is a lance corporal up at he
Plattsburg school OF preparedness, Ger
tain persons whose business II IL to
worry about city affairs thought that
Corporal Curran would appear here yes
terday 10 prevent an interregnum, Ac-
cording TO the latest word, however, he
will not come back until Monday.
The framers of the charter provided
for one real Mayor and two acting ones,
but went no further. Nobody can be
Mayor when the three men mentioned
are out OF town. Therefore the worst
or the best. according to ones View
point, has occurred.
The town was MayorIess once before
when for n few hours George B,
Mcclellan. Patrick i. MCGOWAN and
Little Tim Sullivan were away at the
same time.
The fact Ii that there IL not much for
a Mayor to do here at present. All the
department heads and STATS are busy
on their next years budget estimates
In a few weeks the various Mayors who
are on vacation will have plenty of work,
but just now he city is sliding along
on even keel with no helmsman.

JEWELLERS SWAT
THE WRIST WATCH
Convention Endorses Suffrage,
but Refuses to COuntenance
WOmen's Latest Fad.
TO WORK FOR PUBLICITY

The wrist watch received its most
unkind cut, suffrage was indorsed, a
jewelry publicity campaign was decided
upon and there was an election OF oht-
GERS yesterday. all Of which kept the
delegates attending tho American Ma
tional Retail Jewellers Association con-
vention at the Grand Central Palace
extremely busy.
Mrs. Martha Wentworth OF the
woman's Suffrage party succeeded in
having the convention adopt a resofu-
| ton favoring votes for women. Two
delegates objected. The resolution re-
| cities that the American National Re
tail Jewellers Association should recog-
nize tho advance of recent years In the
status of American women, who In
every State now own property. earn
| wages and take part In community life.
The association decided that inasmuch
as women do accomplish all these things
there is no reason why they should not
have the ballot also as she is a good
buyer OF Jewelry.
When the delegates assembled for the
| morning session second Nice-President
C. F. Manahan. who comes from Chi
cago. and who has charge of the jewelry
exhibit. IN an impassioned speech said
that in view OF the notoriety given the
wrist watch he thought the least the
| jewellers could do would be to adopt n
resolution indorsing II. Whereupon he
made such "A motion.
He was apparently the only friend
the watch had in the crowd The others
were exponents OF watchful waiting.
They received the resolution In silence.
At last Il was broker by one delegate
from St. Louis. who aid the wrist
watch will never be a timepiece. While
II is stylish It is going to give us a lot
OF trouble. and I think we ought to let
the matter stand as IL is
Several delegates shouted Yes, Yes"
Then Delegate II. G. Barnau OF Green's
boro. n. c.. tried TO be neutral. He
said a woman might just as well wear
her watch ON her wrist as tucked away
In a bag somewhere. But the resolution
was lost.
The new officers are: Charles T.
Evans. Utica. y. Y" president q. A.
Brock, Los Angeles, first vice-president 4:
Jean Il. Tack. Newark. n. J., president
OF the New Jersey association, second
vice-president \. W. Anderson, Nee
nah. Wis. secretary: A. L. Thoma, Ohio,
treasurer. executive committee, T. l..
Combs and a. a. Eberts.
T. l.. Combs of Omaha. the retiring
president, was presented with a watch
mot wrist and watch charm.
In the afternoon there was joint
session OF all committees representing
various interested trade organizations
to consider plans for concerted action
regarding fashions and publicity. II
was decided to carry on an extensive
publicity campaign to bring the subject
Of Jewelry prominently bfore Ameri-
can buyers. The meeting was held at
the Biltmore and BARLEY J. Doyle was
elected chairman. The convention will
come to a close to-day.

Julian Eltinge's appearance in a new
play Is always an event of interest. Last
night he made his debut this season
at the Conan Theatre after an absence
from Broadway OF a considerable period,
appearing In a three act farce called
Cousin Lucy which was given a musi-
cal comedy flavor by n description on
the programme calling It a comedy with
music. crediting the book to Charles
Klein and the music to the inevitable but
melodlous jerome Kern.
For the admirers OF Mr.. Kleln-and
there are many-a certain sentimental
interest attaches to the piece because It
was his last completed work, the manu-
script having been delivered to A. II.
Woods. its producer. just previous TO the
playwright's death in the sinking of the
Lusitania last May.
The erstwhile Fascinating Widow
and the "Crinoline Girl" was seen again
last night in one OF his now familiar
female representations. He was sup
ported by n company which included
Dallas Wexford, Leo Donnelly. Austin
Webb, Marie Chambers. Mark Smith,
James Budd, Jane Oaker, Ned Burton,
Oliver Tell. Claiborne Foster. Edith
Hamburg. Mrs. Stuart Robson, j. w.
Ashley, Henry Friend and Frank
Stevens.
Cousin Lucy proved a delectable
bit OF half comedy, half farce, with a
substantial amount OF ~interpolated and
syncopated music thrown in for good
measure. Its locale Is New York city
and its scenes are laid in the apartment
