COUNCIL FACTIONS
LAY OUT PROGRAMS
Last-Minute Plans of Moore
Supporters and Varieties Dis
cussed at Separate Caucuses
CONFER ON CIVIL SERVICE

Last minute plans for their work
during the next administration were
discussed this afternoon at caucuses held
by the Moore and Ware councilmen.
The Moore "loyal eleven met in
the Mayor elects Office in the Grocer
Building behind locked doors and the
Ware councilmanic adherents met in the
Office of the president of Select Council
at City Hall.
Candidates for the Civil Service Com
mission, who will be elected by the new
Council of twenty -one, were discussed
at each conference.
The Moore adherents will support
Clinton Rogers Woodruff. Charles w.
Neeld and William r.. Colhorn. Up to
the present time the Ware followers have
decided on only two candidates. They
arc County Commissioner Henry Starr
Richardson and Mr.. Woodruff.
With the hope of getting a Ware man
on the commission it is understood that
the Ware followers will support Mr..
Woodruff. Whether this will win the
support of the Moore men for a Ware
favorite, however, is a matter of con =
lecture.
Tilibustering to delay organization OF
the new Council Monday is threatened
by the ten Ware members who are
fighting the rules agreed upon by the
Independent majority of eleven.
In statement signed by the Ware
adherents, Mayor elect Moore was
charged with political trick" in an
nouncing that bribery Of councilmen
was rumored.
The Organization minority further
charged that man close to the new
Mayor had attempted intimidation OF
tie new Council members.
Mr.. Moore accepted the Ware mem
bers' statement as declaration Of war
and warned them that the old Organi-
cation leaders no longer boss the city.

SAVAGE BACK IN POLICE
Lieutenant, Who Resigned, Recon
slders Action and Is Restored

Lieutenant Benjamin F. Savage, of
the Thirty ninth street and Lancaster
avenue police station, who resigned on
December 20, reconsidercd his action
and has been restored to duty.
This was learned today at City Hall.
Under the civil service law of the
new charter a city employe may re-
consider resignation within ten days
after it has been rendered.
The action of Lieutenant Savage
caused considerable surprise and much
conjecture in political circles. 1t was
generally understood that his resigna
ton was final. and that Street Ser
geant Earle Vanderbilt would take his
place. Savage is an ardent Ware sup.
porter. He has had frequent tilts with
Blake McCaughan, Penrose leader of
the Twenty fourth ward. 1t was gen
orally accepted that Savage would be
dropped with the advent of the Moore
administration.
