New York, November 13.—The Independent Republican committee of 100 met tonight in Brooklyn, according to notice. President Maxwell said the question to be decided was whether the organization should be made permanent. He was in favor of this for the purpose of holding the balance of power between the two parties. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher said he was also in favor of its permanency. In local matters he was a Republican, in National matters a Democrat. He believed that Cleveland had been elected by Independents, and every man who helped to put him in the Presidential chair was bound to support him until he had done something to forfeit their support. They should keep the organization intact, ready to be summoned by the sound of the trumpet. A committee was appointed to devise a plan for permanent organization.
