‘WORE WAR FORPLATT, | Ohamber of Commerce Will Take @ Hand in the Present Struggle Passage of the LXX.’s Police Mag- istrate’s Bill to Be Advocated. Meeting Called to Discuss a Peti- tion to the Legislature. Ex-Senator Platt will now have to fight the Chamber of Commerce if he continues his war against Mayor Strong. Heretofore New York's famous represen- tative business organization has kept out of the political conflict, but to-day tt was concluded that the city's welfare | demanded action, and in accordance | with @ petition from well-known bust- ness men, Chairman Alexander E. Orr! gent out a call for the Chamber to meet Bt 12.90 next Wednesday. It is stated that the object of the Meeting is to petition the Legislature to pass the Police Magistrates bill sub- mitted by the Committee of Seventy. The significance of this is understood by no one better than by ex-Senator Platt himself, and his feelings on the matter are indicated by the fact that when told of the proposed meeting he answered in a very sarcastic way: ‘Of course, the Legislature has to do everything the Chamber of Com- merce asks." That was all he would say, but the manner in which he said it was more Suggestive than a whole pamphlet from his literary bureau, Among those who signed the call for the meeting of the Chamber were Charles Stewart Smith, Cornelius N. Bilas, Gustav H. Sch Morris K. Jesup, R. M. Gallaway and Henry Hent: Smith, Bliss and Schwab are a. formid ble trio’ in politica themselves, and it ts understood that they are back of the movement to have the Chamber of Com- Merce come to Mayor Strong's support. The Police Magistrates bill a stands, gives Mayor Strong the righ Make appointments. It was sent to Albany about a month ago and has been ina pigeon hole since. It has not even been caucussed by the Republican majority, and the Platt men have declared ‘they ‘would sooner have the present corps of Police Justices than pass a bill giving Mayor Strong more patronage, + They have discussed substitute meas- ures freely, and one of the plans sug- esied was’ that the police magistrates elected. The bill has been regarded ty Platt is 6 whip with which to drive Col. Strong into line, and potlticians to- day were wondering if the Tioga Chiet would submit or endeavor to fight the Chamber of Commerce along with the LXxX. and other reform organizations. The following letter was sent on Sat- urday requesting the meeting to be called: ew York, Feb. 23, 1895, Alexander E Orr, President, Chamber of Com- merce, New York. Clty. Dear Sir!
