THE CITIZENS’ COMMITTEE. ‘The Delegates Organize and Get Ready for Work. ‘MARSHAL WILSON DECLINES TO ALLOW THEM TO MEET IN THE CITY HALL—HE IS MADE THE OBJECT OF SOME SARCASTIC REMARKS—THE COMMITTEE RLECTS OFFI- CERS AND ARRANGES FOR THE AFPOINTMRNT OP _ COMMITTERS—THE LIST OF DELEGATES. ‘The frst meeting of the Citizens’ Committee of One Hundred, composed of representatives from ‘the nine associations of citizens recently formed in the different sections of the District, and repre- senting the entire District, was held last evening at Willard Hall. The meeting was called by the presidents of the different associations, and when 8o'clock arrived, the hour named in the call, all the representatives, with but few exceptions, Were present in the hall, At first the members of the different delegations showed a tendency to keep together, but on account of the general ac quaintance between all t, the delegates were soon mingled together without regard to the Jocalities in which they resided. ‘The first notice sent out for the meeting named the old Cireult Court-room as the place for meeting, but in conse- quence of a letter of the Attorney-General to the effect that the courr-room could not be) used for ‘at purpose, it was necessary tochange the meet ing placd at & late date, and some of the delegates Rot receive the notice of the change. How- exer, they all managed to get to Willard Hall in CALLING TO ORDER. Mr. C. B. Church, as the president of the South ‘Washington Association, which was the first to organize, called the meeting to order, and suggest- ed that Mr. Chas. Pelham be chosen tem} a Mr, Pélham was unanimously elec and upon taking the chair said that they had met for the pi of organizing. He hoped that this duty would be performed in a spiritof fairness, and in that case he believed that it would prove to be the most important meeting of citizens ever held in the District. ‘The citizens had realized forsome ‘time past that action of this kind ought to be taken, and he thought that after this every one would feel surprised that 1t had not been done long ago. This meeting was composed of repre- sentatives selected directly by the people to rep- regent alll the people of the District. The first duty Was to organize, und then to ascertain what are the needs of the city. An effort should be made ve assistance to each section of the District to the whole District. If this is the spirit of the organization to be formed, he believed that It would have great welght with’ the Commissioners and with Congress. ‘If thereis harmony there will be strength and the power to do great good to the entire District. ‘These sentiments were applauded, and Mr. W. ©. Dodge moved that a temporary’ secretary De elected, and suggested the name of Mr. Lawrence Gardner for secretary, and that gentieman was unanimously elected. COMMITTEES PROPOSED. ‘Mr. W. Scott Smith moved that a committee composed of the presidents of each association be appointed to report to the meeting a plan of or- ganization. Mr. C. B. Church suggested that a committee on credentials be first appointed, to be composed of the presidents of the different, associations, ‘This latter motion was adopted, with an amend- ment by Gen. Hovey, that in case of the absence of any president thé chairman be authorized to designate a member of the delegation to take his lace. Pithe chair announced the following as the com- mittee on credentials: 1st district, ¢. B. Chure! 2d, M. 1 Weller, vice S. A. H. McKim; 3d, W. C. Dodge; 4th, A. ¢. Richards, vice Jesse 'B. Wilson; 5th, A.'T, Britton; 6th, Dr. Robert Keyburn; 7th, Jobin T. Mitchell;’sth, Ellis Spear; 9th, H. A. Gris- wold, vice 8. M. Golden. THE COUNTY REPRESENTATION. A short recess was taken in order to allow the committee time to consider the credentials, and upon their return tothe hall, Mr. W. C. Dodge submitted a lst of the accredited delegates with the statement that all the delegations were com- plete with the exception of the 8th district, which ‘comprised the county from Rock Creek to Anacos- ta. ‘The names of six delegates instead of five had been sent in from this district, owing to the fact ‘that the ery Creek tothe 7th street Sead had organized and elected three delegates; those living in Le Droit Park one delegate, and ‘the citizens living in the county extending from Bunker Hiil road to Ana- costia had elected two delegates. ‘There had been A proposition at first to divide this entire section ofthe county into ten districts, and hence this separate action on the partof the citizens had been taken. The committee had therefore decided to report favorably upon all these credentials and allow the citizens of that district to adjust the matter among themselves. Mr. Ellis Spear, one of the delegates from this district, suggested that the name of Mr. J. F. Frizzell be substituted for that of Mr. A. A. Lipscomb, who was absent. Mr. Frizzell declined to accede to this. He said that when the people in his section had first or- ganized their district was known as No. 9, and ‘comprised the country east of Bunker Hill road to the Anacostia River, Subsequently the number of the district had been changed to eight, but pre- viously to this the Mt. Pleasant Association had been formed. He thought that the delegation from the 8th district was not fully representative ag it had no one for the section east of the Bunker Hill road. Tt was decided to allow the matter of the sentatives from the 8th district to be settled by that district. The report of the committee on credentials was adopted, and the roll having been called the following answered to their names, the alternates responding in the absence of the regu- Jar delegates. ‘A LIST OP DELEGATES.

THR PLAN OP ORGANIZATION. ‘When the committee returned, Mr. O. B. Church ‘Stated that they had agreed upon as their report a plan which the presidents at previous conferences ad under consideration. Se “The ‘committee respectfully submits the following oe That this association be “1st. Sora ioe Onicexs ce tae conmulttecshall Bea as reported, the public would be led to Suess ab the objects of the agsociation. aang Church explained that the committee had jecided ‘only the outline of the leaving the devalls 10 ‘be “decided * at “recurs ngs. Capt. Tyler said that the objects could be stated ina few lines, and he suggested that the report be referred back to the committee for the purpose of having this inserted. Mr, Jas. G. Payne made the point of order that the committee was instructed, simply to report a plan of organization, which they done, and herefore a motion to refer back Was not In Order. The point was sustained and the motion being Dut upon the adoption of the report it was RLECTING OFFICERS. Df. Robert Reyburn then moved to proceed to the election of officers, which was adopted, and the chair appointed Messrs. Church, Dodge, Bur- dette and Baldwin as tellers. Nominations for ident being called for, Dr. Reyburn nominated eginaid Fendail, 0, T. Thompson nominated Jesse 1B. Wiison.” Mr. Church nominated W. C. Dodge. “John T. Mitchell was nominated, but de- clined. Mr. Dodge also withdrew his name. In reply to a question the chairman said that it would require a majority vole to elect. The bal- Jot was then taken, and the result annonnced by the secretary as follows: Fendall, 66; Wilson, 20; Dodge, 2; and Church, 1. ‘This’ result, was re- ceived’ with great applause, and on motion of Mr. Dodge the election was made unanimous, Mr. ndall Was then conducted to the chair by Mr. Chureh, and he was greeted with much en- thustasin, MR. PENDALL'S SPEECH. In acknowledging the compument Mr. Fendall sald: “I regard the office which you conferred on me as the highest honor which a District man could re- ceive. There probably was never assembled at the National Capital a ‘of men more decidedly Tepresentative of the intelligence and the moral and material element, of the people than this com- mittee, Every section, both races and every in- Lerest is represented by those chosen by the peo- ple, who have at last awakened from prolonged apathy and who realize that their interests are in their own hands, whatever the form of govern- ment may be. We are organized for no other object than the general’ welfare. We are not wild theorists; we have no pet schemes, no radical innovations, no one section to favor at the expense of any other [applause]. We have at heart the good of the whole Dis- trict, (We are the trustees of the whole peoples and I feel that I utter the general sentiment all when I say that no selfish taotive, no radicalism ‘Will receive countenance in our midst. I will en- deavor in this position to preside at all times with courtesy and impartiality.” Mr. Fendall spoke with great deifberation, and as he resumed his seat the delegates applauded him with vigor. OTHER OFFICERS CHOSEN. Nominations for vice president were then called for. Col G. W. Dyer nominated W. C. Dodge. Mr. Conger nominated Geo, M. Oyster, who declined. Mr. H. B, Moulton nominated Noble ‘D. Larner, who declined, and when his nomination was urged by Col. 8. T. Suit he again declined. Dir. A. B. Mullett nominated Mr. Simon Wolt, who declined. Dr. Baldwin nominated Mr. Chas. Pelham, who declined. The names remain- ing in nomination were those of C. B. Church, W. eoage, and Jno. T. Mitchell.

Dyer moved that a committee of ten be appointed, with the president as chairman, and one representative from each district, to draw up a statement of the objects of ‘the association, draft rules for the conduct of the meetings, and prescribe the duties of the several commitices, q an was offered that this committee also appoint the committees.

Riggs, if he were present, Would desire that his name should not be used. WHY THEY DID NOT GO TO THE COURT-HOUSR. While the vote was being taken Mr. Noble D. Larner said that it had been understood that the meetings of the committee would be held in the old circuit court room in the City Hall—the old stamp. ing ground of the citizens, and there was a great deal of pleasure felt that the old associations were to be renewed. But suddenly, there had been, a change in the program a1 meeting was here He wanted to know who had put the com- mittee out of the City Hall. «We weren’t put out,” exclaimed one of the dele- tes. Siles we were,” retorted Mr. Larner, and then continuing said ‘that the people all over the coun- try held their meetings in the court-houses and he had no doubt if the citizens of the District were bona fide citizens of the United states they would also hold their meetings there. Now, he would like to know why this meeting was not held there, If there were ony. eres ut it this was the lace to make them known. Pir, W. C. Dodge said that as he had rst pro- the meeting there he would explain why jhey had meet somewhere else. He said that when the f were asked If the room might be used for that purpose they gave their imous con- sent, The committee then determined to make as some meénts for the care of the room, as they would not the marshal of the District to undertake that additional expense. Mr. Fendall went to the marshal and asked him if he had any- one to suggest Whom tne committee could employ for the p of care of the room. That they would be giad to employ such a person, ‘The marshal said tn reply. that he was opposed to the ‘use of the room for such a purpose, had his say he would refuse to allow them to meet there. “What is the name ofthe marshal?” asked a delegate sarcastically. “Yfarshal Wilson” replied Mr. Dodge. “Put him out!” shouted a number of volces. Mr. Dodge continuing, said that the marshal told him that other bodies had applied forthe use of the court rooms, and. their requests had been refused. ‘The marshal tnen brought out a letter of Attor- ney-General Garland, in which he had decided that under a clause in oné of tne recent appropriation bills the building was under the direction and con- ‘trol of eee The ee of the aces mittee, sald Mr. Dodge, ente no argument Due took the opportunity to call on the At torney-General, Who told them that it was the usual rule throughout the country for the court-house to be under ay control of the eee thought that it was very properly so, and that cour were no place to hold » public meet- "Fixe committee stated that there was no public hall in the city, and the Attorney General re- marked that there ought tobe one. Mr. Dodge said he told him that they intended to have one before they got through, and then they took their leave. Mr. said that nothing further was done except to make arrangements for another ‘meeting place. ‘TO MERT AGAIN THIS MONTH. ‘The result of the ballot for treasurer was an- chure! iH.

They out- played their opponents everywhere, The score ‘Was 8 to 2, but 1t looked very much as if the Chi- ‘cagos would be Chicagoed, until the ninth inning, ‘when they earned theirtwo runs, ‘The home team secured twelve base hits, Whitney and Carroll doth making three-baggers and Hines a home run. The visitors were credited with eleven hits, Dut ‘Unree were bases on balls. The only error scored against the home team wasa dropped thrown Dall by Hines, The visitors made six errors, many of which were costly. The Nationals played with a vim ané snap that delighted the spectators, The Chicagos presented their veteran infield, so that the only change from last year’s team was in the outfield, but no such sharp playing as formerly characterized the champions was displayed yes terday. ‘Thelr only fine play was a wonderful ieft- handed catch by Sullivan of Shock’s liner, which looked good for Unree bases. Shaw pitched an effective game, and, as usual, was ably backed by Gilligan, who showed how qlick he is by throw- ing out’ the fleet-footed Sunday at second, with plenty of time to spare. The home team batted Clarkson in every direction when onve they solved his delivery ‘There was quite a change in the make-up of the Washington team yesterday. Krieg, who hurt his leg in one of the New York ‘games last week, was laid off fora rest, and Hines was brought in from center garden to take care of first bag. Whit ney played center field, and Crane replaced Myers atshort stop, The latter change seemed to meet with the approval of the public, who Were glad to see Crane given a chance, especially as Myers has not been playing up to the standard. Crane made three hits, two of which were of the very best Kind. He,-covered second bas> well, but, ai- though no’errors were scored against him, he dis- played no anxlety to get hold of a couple of hot nders, one of Which he surely should have died. "The change at short stop would have been made ten days ago, but Manager Gaffney Wisely refrained trom taking summary action Which would displease his men, several of Whom. were anxious that Myers should’ be given a little more time. Now that Krieg will have a rest. for a week or more, it is not improbable that O’Brien will be given a chance to show what he can do in his old Rosition on frst bag, or he may be tried in center ie Agreat_many spectators are becoming irritated at the growing evil of betting on the innings, Which fs carried on incessantly in the Wall-street section of the side seats. As the league rules are opposed to such conduct and as the Detter class Spectators are the ones who object, 1t might be advil ‘to take immediate steps to put an end tol. Umpire Powers showed himself to be a second Gaffney yesterday. His judgment is good aud he 4S prompt and firm, NOTES FROM THE BALL GROUND. The spectators should not yell at an opposing player when he is attempting to catch the ball. It is not hospitable or gentlemanly. Let the game be played on its merits. Capt. Anson seems to be selected for such treatment, and yet he always Dehaves himself on the flela. "He stands up for is club as a captain should, but yields gracefully ‘when he finds that he cannot carry hls point. ‘The Nationals are good batters and good elders, but they are often lacking in team work, and show Poor judginent in running bases.
