He held a conference Tuesday with Alderman J. H. Harwell, Councilman Claude L. Ashley, Councilman Charles W. Smith and Councilman A. R. Col- cord. Committee appointments were discussed. It was pretty well under stood what these men would get. Harwell likely will be chairman of the Board of Fire Master**-; Ashley will be reappointed chairman of the Sanitary Committee; Colcord will be renamed chairman of the Police Com mittee, and Smith chairman of the Tax Committee—that is, if the gossip can be relied upon.

The fact is, if Mayor Woodward should carry out his threat of going into seclusion until the meeting of the City Council Monday, when he will deliver his message and make his appointments, the members of Coun cil would not be left much more in the dark than they are at present.
