HylanAldernlen
Defy Court and
Bar Socialists
Counsel for Members Kept
From Seats To-day Will
Ask That Flouting of Or.
der Be Called Contempt
Tammany Votes as Unit
Date for Boards Next Meet
ing Set to Nullify JUS
tice Wasservogel's Ruling

AT yesterdays meeting of the Board
OF Aldermen the Tammany majority,
oy strict party vote, prevented the
Two Socialist aldermen who were elect
ed two years ago from taking the seats
which have been filled since the or
ganization of the present board by
Tammany men.
F. H. La Guardia, President Of the
Board, made a vain plea to the Tam
many majority to discharge the Com
mlttee on Privileges and Elections
from its report on the case. which
shows that the Socialist aldermen, AL
gernon Lee and Edward +. Cassidy,
were elected by omfortable maiori-
ties, although counted out by the cleo
tion officials on the returns.
The Tammany men, Moritz Grau-
bard and Thomas j. Sullivan, who hold
the seats belonging to the Socialists,
voted with their associates to keep
Aldermen Lee and Cassidy from their
places.
At the close of the meeting Morris
Hillquit, counsel for Lee ard Cassidy,
announced that he would apply to-day
to Justice Mullan in Part | of the
Special Term of the Supreme Court
for the issuance of orders calling upol
the twelve Tammany members Of the
committee to show cause why they
should not be punished for contempt.
Anticipating such a move, the Tam
| many majority in adjourning set No
< l.. H.
meeting. This is twelve days after the
date set by the Supreme Court, acting
through Justice Wasservogel, for the
Board of Aldermen to act on the report
Of the Committee on Privileges and
Elections. Action on the report would
mean the seating of Aldermen Cassidy
and Lee.
The order of Justice Wasservogel
will be the basis of the motion Of Mr..
Hillouit to-day to punish the Tammany
members of the Committee on Privi-
leges and Elections for contempt. This
order was issued on September 49, and
named the entire Board Of Aldermen as
defendants. The order directed the al
dermen to complete the recount, which
had been hanging fire then for twenty
one months, within thirty days, and to
act on it's findings within fifteen days
thereafter. The order of the court in
tended that the aldermen rightfully
entitled to the seats by virtue of the
recount should be seated not later than
November 8.
Tammany, bitter over the order of
Justice Wasservogel, is fighting the or
der Of the court through Corporation
Counsel John r. O'Brien. The Tammany
members Of the board, in multiplying
the court order by refusing to comply
with its terms, are defending their po-
sition by saying that the appeal auto
matically acted as stay.
1t is commonly reported around the
City Hall corridors that the Tammany
F. aldermen do not intend to file their re-
/ port until the last meeting Of the Board
in December. This would mean that
the two Socialists elected will never be
permitted to take their seats, rs the
present board goes out of existence on
! December 81

lionaire Allen A. Ryan doesn't make
the departments morale any better.
The prostitution of the trial courts
is another matter for consideration, |
tell you it takes the heart out of the
men when they feel that a few insid-
ers' influence is black marking their
record"
Mr. Jerome referred to the record
Of Tighe, the detective recently SEN
fenced to two TO four years for club
bing. He said T;She had heen kept
on the force by mysterious influences,
when he should have been ousted long
ago.
"For having been found drunk on
post" said Mr.. Jerome, this man was
sentenced to reprimand. Within a
year he was up on charges again for
hsvng beaten man over the head
three times with his nightstick. He
was found guilty and sentenced to a
fine of one days pay.

Tighe to that meted out to that stalwart
sergeant, Ezekiel Keller. Sergeant Kel-
Ter, had insisted that John A. Harriss,
one Of Commissioner Enright's circle of
millionaire special deputies, keep in line
with other folks in the course of parade
Mr.. Harriss complained that he had to
wait until the line was open and that he
had to go through with the other pedes-
trians.
"But the drunkard Tighe got slap
on the wrist. That doesn't put hear

"And that's only sample of what

platform by Vincent Gilroy, Republi-

Board Of Aldermen, and Senator
Charles C. Lockwood, coalition and Re

ABOLISH CRIME

ABOLISH CRIME
 "I now join in dcdicating this home of the bureau of the American repub- lies to the highest of all its missions the abolition of the crime of killing man by man as means of settling international disputes"
 Long before the League of Nations was thought of the Pan-Amcrican union was a going concern At the international bureau of the American republics it was established in 1890 at the first international conference of American nations called upon the initiative of James C Blaine and held in this city. IL was rnorganizcd. en- iargol and given new life by the third conference, held at Rio de Janciro and attended hy Elihu Root in 1906.
 It is in no sense a subordinate hu- rcau of the United States or any other government. except that it is equally subordinate to all It's control rests in governing board composed of the diplomatic representatives in Washington of the American republics and having as its chairman ex-offiCio the secretary of state of the United States
 BETTER UNDERSTANDING
 On the moral or sentimental side, the chief object of the union is to de- velop mutual acquaintance, better un- derstanding, lasting friendship. peace and good will; and on the material side. to develop the largest possible ex- change of commerce and trade indus trial prosperity and economic prog ress among all the American repub- lies.

 IDEAL MEETING PLACE
 Though it is scarcely proper to say that the king" of Japan or any other son of Nippon had part in the selec- tion of the Pan-American union as seat for the conference. the "lrcturer' VI was not far wrong in his other state ments. Connaisseurs do not hesitate to pronounce the building the most beautiful in Washington, and it is doubtful if a seat more suited for the conference by history and connotation could have been found anywhere in the world.
 The very conception of the Pan American union was born of an tn- spiration toward peace; the building was dedicated to peace; and when the representatives of the powers as. scmble on November l2 around the great mahogany table in the Hal! of the Americas most prominently be- fore their eyes will be the four huge plaques. inscribed with the word pax" which form almost the sole mural decoration of that lofty cham. 1 ber.

Concluding his remarks at the dedication ceremonies held on April 2G, 1910 he said:
