EMBERS of the New York Ath- M Jetic Club, divided into two fac- tions, will meet to-night and vote thelr choice of rival tickets containing the nominations for officers and gov- ernors of the organ\ration. James W. Hyde heads the regular ticket. The nominating committee, in Page's name for re-election, caused a split among the members. Friends of the pre incumbent, believing him to be the vic m of ‘lub polities,” became as buny istrict leaders gunning for voted and on the even of the annual election they have put an independent ticket in the fleld headed by Mr. Page. Sup- portere of the rival forces are so sure of thelr strength that it will take one of the bitterest fights ever known at the uptown club before a victorio ticket Is jammed through at to-night’s election. ‘Thingw started to happen with amaz- ing rapidity at the N.Y, A.
