the City Hall last night settled
what looked like a storm but
whioe proved to be only a sum

selves as they should and decided
hat whereas, and seein' and
wherefore, there had been a lot
of talk and some misreprenta
ti ins, for the best of the interests
of the organization and the "good
of order'" it was demt nded that
all parties make some concessions
and it resulted in a thorough
understanding of all questions
at issue. Part of those who were
elected at the former meeting
withdrew in the interest of
harmony and the following
officers were relected:
Chief H. L. Cortleyou.
