the others would have little difficulty IN
making the trip. Mayor Mitchell has be-
come so interested in military affairs
that there is d likelihood Of his ac-
cepting.
Police Commissioner Arthur Woods,
who got here last Saturday and who
planned 10 stay through 10 the end,
\ finds tonight that this will be impos-
M sible. He was summoned TO the teIe-
VI phone several times this evening 10 an
swer calls from New York. Mr.. Woods
would not say what occasioned his de-
cision TO return, which he viii do to-

that there are a number OF routine
matters which require his personal at

from their cots and prepare 10 begin
practice on the big rife ranges used by
the regulars. These targets are set at
from 100 70 1000 yards. The work
will be begun at o'clock. This prac-
tice will continue for two weeks.
\ number Of persons in New York
believe that the Mayor is not serving
his city a. well by being here as he
could by hieing himself to the City
Hall every week day. They are eN-
pressing this sentiment IN letters and
postcards. which pour In on HIM IN
every mail. But not one of the writers
has signed his name 70 the complaint.
Indignant Taxpayer" and PRO Bono
Publico" are the most numerous sigma
lures The Mayor IL not showing any
annoyance over this.

most certain 20 come. unless the sug-
eestion of Bernard II Sander, the
New York barriSter. who is in Com

in his daily statement 10 the press TO-
day, said that he would try 20 induce
General Wood 20 line the motor ma
chine guns up against the suffrage
headquarters and order the men &c fire
