HARMONY IN SIGHT AT GARY (Continued from page five.) exchanges ha dclosed in the large cities lor tne day. Not all of the committee men were notified and the call was signed by Colonel Francis. Before lonr Major MacFadden and his chief lieutenant heard of it and they Issued their protests and declined to attend. Pete Lamb Smllea. . In any event, eighteen of the twentv. six Immortals gathered in Binzenhof hall and Pete Lamb, who.Jately acquired the title of first vice chairman of the country central committee was elevated to the throne and unlike W. H. Fyffe Parry, who presided over the gathering In Bennett's hall the" other night, he did not have to use a poker as a gavel. Chairman Lamb lso acted diplomatically and soon gave evidences that he would not preside at a chairmanship election unless harmony was thick as the dew in May time. So, the committee adjourned until Friday night Colonel Francis and his followers maintain that If the major Is so sure of getting fifteen votes that he would have put In appearance last night although the major says that he had 1 previous business enggement and that the announcement of the meeting was too sudden. On top of this the major claims that he Is the man to issue a call for a meeting and that the secretary. Dr. Smith wil have to countersign It. On the other hand', those In the Mac Fadden band wagon declare that if Mr. Francis is not nervous about getting the place that he would not tried to have "rushed things." Oil On The Tronbled Water. Today some of the party leaders, who have been resting on high hills, watching the contest, got down from their seats and began, the opening of several barrels of oil which will be poured on the troubled waters. By Friday nlzht It is expected that everything will be as smooth as a piston rod plunging through a steam chest greased with s olive oil and that the meeting will open up with hymns of the sweetest hat-1 mony. . . f - .. .,. ....

A LETTER PROM NEW YORK. In recent Issue of the Huntington Herald there appeared a letter as fol lows in which a Times editorial had been the basis of some contention. 'The letter read: New York City. Editor, The Herald, Huntington, Ind. Sir; I was interested In madlnc in your issue of an article from Tbb (Ham mond) Times in reference to Doctor "iley being over enthusiastic, v.i cruiiiuBi&eiJi;. iaers is no question but what the editor of 1 Tw 1 f o i n-, .1 rr. - , . . X..U.,.IUUIIU Knows wnat ne is talking about .and it is evident that Dr. Wiley frequently does not know what he is talking about During the recent Investigation in Washington he endeavored in many ways to mislead the investigating committee. Mr. Floyd asked Dr. Wiley: "You stated on yesterday that you are the chief of the bureau of chemistry. Will you state your qualifications, experience, training, etc., in the science of cheBi't.rv?" .Dr. -Wiley: "I am a eraduat. of Han over college, in southern Indiana, and took the old-fashioned coursa In rim.' i .. 7 . aics. mathematics and some science not much science. I afterwards read) medicine with a practitioner, as was the custom in those days, for three years, and then entered the medical college of Indiana at Indianapolis, where I took a two years' course and graduated in the spring of 1872. After my graduation I was offered the chair of chemistry in this college although I expected to be a practitioner of medicine, I did not feel that I j-.n mfn. cient training In chemistry to become a Drofesaor. sin T kaM in t i rt . . .. . professor, so I said to the trustees that ir tney would give me a year's leave of absence to study chemistry. I would accept the position. I entered the senior class of Harvard university and specialized in chemistry and allied sciences, and graduated from that university in the spring of 1873. I thereupon undertook my duties as professor of chemistry In the Indiana Medical college. At the same time I was elected professor of chemistry in .what is now Butler university of Indianapolis.

At that time I re signed my position as professor of chemistry at tbe medical college, on account of not being able to ca rr v on Dotft tiutles, by reason of the growth of.
