After all of the evidence had been
heard against fJeorce Kutra. who has
n saloon at Second and Tasker streets,
Mr. Kane decided to drop the prosecu

enter an order of nolle pros in the case
Itefore dismissing the jury. Judge
Dickinson spoke of the importance of
upholding the law and of the ln t of
citizens to assist in this. He then al
lowed Kutra to go.

Keiulriclt Remains Silent
Murdoch Kendrick. campaign man
itger for Congressman Moore, said he
hnd.no comment to make at this time on
the MncLaughlin enndidncy. The Moore
leaders take the attitude that Hie main
business just now is the officin! count
nnd that mennwhile Mr. Moore can
"wait nnd see."
This afternoon Sir. Jenkinson will
hold a conference with labor men with
the object of putting two labor leaders
on the MncLaughlin ticket ns candidates
for magistrate. It Is believed thnt if
the official connt fails to accord Mag
istrate Robert Carson one of the four
I Republican noiniuntiotiK for magistrate,
he will be named on the Mnclnughlin
ticket. This, it wns explained, would
put him in line for winning election
as one of the three minority magistrates
to be elected.
Independents who were supporters of
the late Mayor ltlankenhurg, snid Mr.
Jenkinson, nre among the men whom
he is enlisting in thef MncLaughlin cani

TOWN MEETING PARTY ENDS.
Senator David Martin's declaration
for Congressman Moore for Mayor, itho
demise or the Town Meeting, party nnd
plans for the ticket to be headed by Di
rector of Supplies MncLaughlin mark
today's political developments.
Further ns the oflicinl count tends
more nnd more to confirm the nomi
nation of Mr. Moore, cabinet speculation
Is experiencing n revival. ,
Following the suggestion made by
supporters of CongresBmnn Moore thjtt
Colonel John C. Groomc, of the Amer
AS C UN
GOES ON
ican expeditionary forces, was beingv-i'l
put forward ns a candidate for director
of public safety in event of Mr, Moore's
election as Mayor, the name of Col
onel J. Warner Hutehins likewise was
brought out. Edwin F. Morse, n busi
ness mnn nnd member of the committee
ofc one hundred, -was suggested by a,
member of the Moore campaign com
mittee as n candidate for the post of
! director of public works.
David J. Smyth former director of
I public safety nnd. counsel for the Moore
I forces, announced definitely that he
could not be considered ns n candidate
in any sense because of his law prac
tice. Mr. Smyth's name has been per
sistently referred to in connection with'
the office of director of public snfety.
The passing of the Town Meetlne,
party wns annonnccd by George W.
Coles, chairman. This party was!
launched on the wave of popular re
sentment growing out of the Fifth ward
murder and election outrages of 1017.
"The Town Meeting party," gala
Chairman Coles, "has achieved its ob
ject and passed out of'official existence.
The old members may meet unofficially,
but the organization goes out of ex- '
istence with the success of Congress
man Moore. In order to achieve this
success the pnrty merged with the He
publican party to make the fight at
the primaries. It even refused to ask
for the selection of registrars in the
name of the Town Meeting pnrty."
Senator Martin, one of the stalwarts
of the Vare organization and leader
of the Nineteenth ward, indorsed Con
gressman Moore in these words:
"There is no question about Con
gressman Moore's ability and that he
has the qualifications that should make
a most successful administration in the
Mayor's office. In the event of his be
ing declared the Republican nominee
he will have no more earnest supporter ,
than myself to insure his election by
a large majority."
David II. Lane, of the Twentieth
ward, has already , said substantially
the same thing.
