on the mound for the Tigers, and the

pretty article of baseball. Six hits
were marie by tin visitors off hit de*

Bui unfortunately, three of them
were bunched in ihc last Inning, and
; this coupled w'tli a doubtful decision '

SPEAKERS ATTACK
CONVENTION PLAN
1 Continued from l'lrst r.tge.)
port of Marshall Ward voters in tlio
coming1 election. w:ih singular unan?
imity they condemned in toto the con?
vention plan or any modification of it,
declaring1 themselves to stand for a
direct election by primary.
"I am absolutely opposed to th^> con?
vention id-a and I believe thai it will
mean the blocking or the will of the
people.said K, I \ Duvlaon, labor can?
didate for Uir Common Council, on the
mooted question.
"I am utterly oppctsed to the conven?
tion idea," was the WJIJ Jefferson C.
Powers put it, concluding ?11 appeal
for the support of the voters of Mar?
shall Ward, in tho primary on Apiil
3U. II" referred to his record of three
terms in (he Common Council in sup?
port of bis claim.
>ii>n l ? would He folly.
??Thc> railroad- d an 1 rammed thu
Administrative Uoiird through on the
promise that the poop 1.3 shall elect Its
members," said Ucorge W. ? Hogers. I
?and now it seems that the same lac-j
ties nrt to i.e followed In making up|
its personnel. If ihc people are com-1
potent to elect delegates to tho con-1
vcnlion, why aren't lliey equally as
coiiiptent to elect members of the
bond'.' I think it woulu be folly to
select them by Convention.''
"Ii would be a mistake to go back
t.. the convention system," declared J.
It. Welsh, "and I hope that this body
Will pass a resolution against the
plan."
"I fuvor a primary, which is the
proper vote of the people." was Ilm
whj W. K. Sullivan reinforced Hie an?
vil chorus.
"l think, as a cltlxcii of Richmond,
that I have Intelligence enough to pick
nut live able men for the Administra?
tive Board, and I concede the same
ability to the other voters of the city,"
said C. II Wiltshire. "The Idea of a con?
vention is too absurd to talk about.'"
B. Uallaghcr, a member of the as-'
sication, looked upon tho convention
plan as a scheme to draw up a slate
mad. up of individuals Itcceptublc to .1
select lew of "intellectuals," ami one
which bears strong resemblance to the
more palpable knavery ? mployed by
politicians to thwart ;i.. will of tin
voters.
IS. W. r.vans. M. T. Hogers. and i
LScoi'ge T Davis, members of the City!
Democratic Committee, declared them- |
selves for the primary plan, and said
thut tloy would oppose (.ho conven?
tion Hcheine at Hie uti etliig of the
city Committee to-night, Tbc same
idea was expressed 111 wrlttsjll com?
munications by Councllmcn I", L not?
ier and Ii. N. Ooodo,
Only two of the candidates for kho
Administrative Board were present al
the meeting, John 11 Irschberg, und
1.;.-gc B. Davis. Both stated posi?
tively that they wb?l1 no; enter the
race if the convent ion plain Is
adopted.

designating popular meetings held in
the West Knd as "packed," It was
done obviously, he vj,id. with Hie in?
tention of COnVi ylng the Idea that
the action of these meetings was not
representative of the voters. He call?
ed the attention of the reporters pre?
sent to tile fact that the present meet?
ing was an entirely representative
gathering.
.Innies Dlckcraon was less reserved
and charged In eltOCt that the news?
papers of the city were Joined in an
unholy alliance with the "ring" to
thwart the will of the people- Tho
same organs that were active in keep?
ing the matter from reaching the
vol. !?'. when the creation of the board
was being agitated, he said, were now
pursuing the same tactics, ami de?
nouncing those wlio disagree with
