portanee transpired. A full vote--larger
than that of last year-was brought out, ,and
Samuel II. Black was elected almost unani-
mously to succeed himself as mayor for the
new term of three years.
There had been mucn speculation as TO
the result, but, as was expected, it has all
ended In words. None of the numerous
candidates spoken of for mayor polled

Esq, who received 40 ballots.
The successful ticket chosen is as follows
For Mayor-Samuel Ia. Black.
For City Treasurer--William F. Lane.
For Assessor-Andrew j. Brown, Sr.
For City Council-William Herbert, Jos.
T. Grimes, james b. Lancaster.
The vote polled was as follows: Mayor
s. II. Black, 331; j. X. Booth, 40; Blacks
majority, 2S2. w. +. Lane for treasurer
and A. j. Brown, for assessor, each received
4O3 votes, having no opposition. Council

Extensive preparations have beea made
for the game of base ball this afternoon be-
tween the Quickstep club and the Cleveland
nine.
The latter arrived in Wilmington this
morning and were shown the city. Yester-
day they played the Baltimores Of Balti-
more, defeating them by score
of 10 to 0. The Sun of Balti-
more says "The visitors from the
League came out even stronger in the field
ing and batting than they did on the day
before, proving themselves an almost in
vincible nine. They made l6 hits and one
error. The Baltimores made three hits aud
10 errors. Diven pitched and Kelly caught
for the Baltimores, and Barnie played right
field.
Game will be called this afternoon at
O'Clock sharp, and eight policemen have
been assigned to the Front street groun DIS

COUNCILS VISIT.
The City Statesmen Find But Little to
Object to in the Amended Charter.

Especial correspondence of the Gazette.]
DOVER, April l0.-The Wilmington City
Council delegation arrived here at noon,
to-day, and Immediately after dinner was
given hearing before the House Committee
on Municipal Corporations. Somehow or
other, the Wilmington statesmen, when they
came to "face the music" found but
little in the Legislative amendments to
object to, except the one establishing q
municipal court, and even this they were
willing to approve If its effective operation
was withheld until the end of Mayor Wales
term OF office. They simply objected TO
clipping the present Mayors wings. "0nly
this and nothing more"
Another little hitch occurred over the
provisions extending the terms Of the
Auditor and Solicitor so that their success
sors will be chosen by the Council elected
IN June, 1884, and not by the Council
elected next June. The majority members
of Council, however, found themselves
unable to show why the term of these of
ficials should not be made to commence
with the new administration. In regard to
overruling the City Solicitors decision the
committee agreed to allow Council to do
this by two-thirds vote, with
out the clause imposing personal
liability In case of damage
arising from such action. City So
licitor Turner spoke on this question and
emphatieally protested against giving Coun-
ell any right at all to overrule the Solicitors
opinion.
Councilman Talley approved the amend
ment prescribing the physical qualifications
Of policemen.
The ensuing discussion disclosed no rad
ical opposition on the part of Council to any
of the amendments, except the one defining
property qualification for membership in
the City Council, which the committee
agreed to abolish altogether.
Before the conference ended City Solicitor
Turner took occasion to state that he had
consistently urged the passage OF the charter
as approved by the City Council, and that
he had nothing whatever to do with the
Legislative amendment. Speaker Bates
and Representative Cooch endorsed Mr..
Turner's statement.
Council departed after passing resolu-
tion of thanks for the courtesies extended
and left for home on the O'Clock train.
At the afternoon session the House made
the changes in the amendments metioned in
the regular report of proceedings and re.
committed the charter with instructions tC
the committee to report it for final passage
tomorrow.

PHIPPS' RETURN.
Preparations to Bring the Festive Major
Home Again.

Home Again.
HAMILTON, ONT, April 10.-The decision
of the Minister of Justice that Major Phipps
must be extradted without delay, was the
general topic of conversation on the streets
to day. Many were the expressions of SYM
pathy. No criminal has ever been 80 ac-

has. In fact, the magnitude of

that they have repeated their visits for the
pleasure of the Majors company.
Visitors were not confined to any particu-
lar class, but numerous men about town
called to see him daily, and even clergy
men have found pleasure in his society.
Mrs. Phpps, since the arrest of her husband,
has been an object of interest, but more
particularly now. There was an unusual
number of visitors to see the Major to-day.
He received them with his usual good humoI

oHicer mccullough Resigns.

AS stated exclusively in the GAZETTE
Yesterday, another one of the 'models" has
gone wrong, and was given the alternative
of resigning or being ignominiously bounced.
The unfortunate has resigned, and his name
is Mccullough, one OF the officers fined at
the last term of court for overstepping his
duty. The reason for his involuntary re-
tirement from the force, 1t is stated, was a
charge preferred against him of immoral
conduct while on duty. At the Hall 1t is
stated that officer Mccullough gave no
reason for resigning,

A LoKING HUSBAND.

He Gives His Baby whole Pie and
Throws Potatoes Over His Wife.
Considerable amusement was created at
the City Hall last evening during the hear
ing of Samuel Dillman for disorderly con
duct. The defendant was fined 81 and costs
and the facts elected through Officer John
Quincy Adams, the prosecutor, and the
prisoner himself, were about at follows
Dillman went to his home, near Tenth
and Lombard streets, on Sunday, somewhat
under the influence of liquor. His baby
was sitting upon the floor and crying for a
pie placed upon a table. The man asked
his wife why she did not give the little one
what it asked for. She replied curtly,
whereupon Dillman handed the youngster
the whole pie. The woman at once seized the
pastry and threw it from the door. Dillman
| then remarked: eli you can waste my
yictuals, guess can too" accompanying
the words by throwing painful of peeled
potatoes over his spouse, ''just for joke"
as he explained. The woman then called for
| officer Adams who came into the house and
inquired If she wanted her husband ar
rested. The reply was "Not if he behaves
himself" but Samuel said he was ready to
go. Adams very properly refused to make
an arrest then, but a wordy dis
pute arose between the blue coat,
Dillman, and the latter's brother. The
officer left, but the next day had warrant
issued for the arrest of Dillman for dis
orderly conduct-a proceeding which has
created considerable comment, insomuch al
from the testimony adduced Dillman die
not leave his house. Neither did his wifi
appear against him at all.

Tho Morisiana Delayed.

Contrary to expectation the Morisiana did
not arrive yesterday and in consequence the
vessel did not leave Shipley street wharf
this morning as advertised. About 200
people were disappointed and a lot OF
freight intended for the boat was stored
away in an adjoining shed. The vessel left
New York all right and was heard of down
the river, The general impression is that
the vessel is lying of on account of the
heavy fog. 1t is rumored that the FELTON,
will start to run Immediately after the Nor
