CHASE—THE CHAIRMAN DISAPPEARS—CONTR TING DELEGATES— HOW OFFICERS WRER FINALLY ELECTED. ‘The republican central committee of the Dis» trict met last evening at St. George’s Hall to or- ganize, The hall was crowded, th re being present not only a full representa'ton of the delegates but a large contingent of spectato's Mr. A. M. Clapp, who presided at the last meeting of the committee, held four years ago, called the meeting to order, and in the course of some brief remarks took oc- caston to appeal tothe delegates ascitizens to conduct themselves ta an orderly manner, and thus advertise to the world that they were capa- ble of exercising the right of suffrage. Tae vener- able presiding officer had barely finished his re- marks when Mr. Perry Carson Jumped to his feet and moved that the committee proceed to the LRCTION OF A TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN. Mr. Clapp refused to entertain this motion, on the ground that he was authorized under the rules of what was known as the contesting delegates in ‘the other four districts, ‘THE MINORITY REPORT. Mr. Chase read -a minority report, signed by, Messrs. Powell, Branson, Wilkinson and himself, Tecommending the seating from the four districts, the delegates which he said were regular and had been elected within the time fixed in the call for holding Lue primaries, In attemptung to discuss this report Mr. Chase evoked @ bow! of protests, ‘aod in the midst of a confused babel of sounds a motion was made wo the majority re- port, which the chairman put and declared was carried.
