CHICAGO, Feb. l3.-A prominent ward
politician belonging to the Peoples party,
having become engered with Mayor Calvin
because that gentleman has failed to re-
ward his services In accordance with prom
ises, has written letter to the !" Tribune
exposing the corrupt practices Of his party
at the charter election last April. :,
Mayor Calvin is holding over by virtue
of the election. Ifthe allegations are true
he is well aware the charter was carried by
fraud. The informant states that be saw
five hundred fraudulent ballots cast BY one
man with the countenance of the Judges,
and informed the Mayor of the fact the
same day, and was congratulated by him
on the victory obtained in this fraudulent
manner. The story is Straightforward and
is likelyto make q stir equal to anything
which has transpired here in the whisky
business. There hns BEEN suspicion et

About three hundred persons assembled ct
the Institute Hall yesterday afternoon, At
the usual Sunday Temperance meeting. The
meeting was organized by calling DR.. Fields
to the chair.
Rev. F. Israel then offered very earnest
prayer in his usual manner.
Rev. Mr.. Wells then read an account Of
his experience Of the past week In obtain
ing signers, and stated that he had now
429 names, 10 Of whom were ministers OF
the Gospel. He further stated that he had
ceiyed much encouragement from many
persons. Some, however, did not think Of
the subject kindly, and one minister had
even refused to read notice In his Church
which he had sent.
He then introduced Rev. Mr.. Israel, who
begun his address by saying that he did not
doubt the statement of Mr.. Wells concern
ing the refusal of the minister to read the
notice in his church, but he hoped that the
clergy should not be blamed, as they were
endeavoring to do all in their power. He
continued as follows: "I should like It were
