THE DEMOCRATIC FIGHT IN THE FIFTH sENA-
ToRIAL DISTRICT.
The coming contest In Tammany Hall 6ver the nomI-
nation Senator the Filth Senatorial district bids
iair to be exceedingly spirited
That the wigwam slate is Alfred Wagstan Is
versaly klown political circles, but the friends OF
Assemblymau Peter Mitchell are none the less
ndcnt OF victory. They stanch rebels to dicta-
ton from John Kelly and thus far all efforts break
their ranks has been futile. Yesterday John Kelly
sent Ior . subordinate Office holder, who q
delegate to the Senatorial Convention IRON the
Thirteonth district, aud asked him 10 voto Tor
Wagstan, but he empnatically refused TO comply. All
other Office holding delegates pedged 70 Michell
equally hrn, ana declare their Willingness 10 forfeit
thor places rather than thor independence as men.
Up TO the present Time all the hopes OF Wagslah's
supporters have been centered In tho "Boss," they
well knowing his strength
MilcneIls trends. on the contrary have for months
been working quietly among the people, urging tor
ward their candidates nomination on the strength Of
his record in the Assembly, as tho warm supporter Of
rapid transit, apporuonment, reduction OF taxation,
ana a proper excise law. These things have
apparently brought forth excellont fruit As the
test now stands Mitchell is sure OF the delegation
from Assembly district, the larger part from
the Thirteenth, and has a reasonable prospect Of
securing enough independent men ~ from the Ninth
ON the Seventh, the smaller part 0l tho Thirteenth
and the oioc holders IN the Ninth Both sides are

threats at tho polls IN case the Boss dictatIon

keny's opposition TO Mitchell Is said to be tho
lxttcr's indepe endencc as a democrat. An auxiliary
which may cast the balance OF power against

mated his conceded intimacy with ex Senator Fen
