The District Nominations in the
Senate.

THE REJECTED JUSTICES OF THE PEACE.
There was no debate in executive session OF
the Senate to-day on the rejection of Wall,
Weaver and Thomas, the three unsatisfactory
nominees for justices of the peace. The Sen
ate District committee yesterday afternoon
agreed to report adversely Wall and Weaver,
and subsequently learning Thomas record, as
published IN THE STAR, they included him in
the black list also.
THE NOMINATIONS OF COMMISSIONERS.
meeting Of the Senate District committee
was held this morning for the purpose of tax
ing action on the nominations for District
Commissioners. Owing to the early hour g a.
m.) at which the Senate adjourned, all the
members OF the committee were not present,
and the meeting was adjourned subject to the
call OF The chairman. The nominations will
probably be disposed of in committee this af-
ternOOn.
Tfe1e is strong lobby at work to secure
the defeat of the nominees for Commissioners,
and particularly hard fight is being made
against Capt. Phelps, the chief objection to
him being that his re-appointment is entirely
oppo, cd to the spirit of the new District gov
eminent bill.
At 2:45 p; m. to-day, the Senate District COM
mittee had taken no action on the nOmina-
tiOnS for District commissioners
