cinct of this ward, Chairman Donnelly said
the committee having been unable to unite
upon a report with regard to the rights of
the contestants, two sets of credentials be-
ing before them, had decided to refer the
whole subject to the convention.
Mr.. Bayer, of what is known as the
Mccarthy delegation, addressing the con-
vention, explained the organization of the
caucus, and asserted that it was fairly con.
Quoted, and that the delegates favoring
McCarthy's nomination for alderman were
legally elected to represent the precinct in
the convention.
Mr.. John Dale, speaking for the I. st. Pc
ter delegates, elected By a caucus which
split off from the Mccarthy organization,
claimed that the vote said to have been
cast at that caucus, over 500, while the
heaviest vote at an election was less than
800, showed the way it was being con-
Quoted, and just the way the seceders in
the effort made to get an honest expression
of the sentiment of the precinct as to who
was desired for alderman.
By permission of the convention Aid.
MCCARTHY spoke briefly, stating that the
caucus which had selected delegates
in his interest, met at the
hour and in the place named
in the call of the committee; that the eau
Gus was organized promptly, the opposite
side being given a fair representation, and
that only after it became evident that his
friends were in large majority in the pre-
cinct, was the bolt made, and that after
making another organization, the votes
secured for their pretended list of delegates
were principally Republicans and minors.
]. G. Donnelly said these explanations
were out of order and he moved the con-
vention proceed with the business for which
it had been convened.
Mr.. Ringwald asked which list of dele
gates would represent the first precinct of
the Sixth ward.
The Chair-Under the report of the COM
mittee only the second precinct is entitled
to representation.
Mr.. Donnelly stated that the committee
was nearly unanimous in the opinion that
the st. Peter delegation should be admitted
from the first precinct, and he moved that
delegation be admitted.
The motion was put, and few voting in
the affirmative, the chair declared it car
ried.
Mr.. Ringwald, who had been unsuccess-
fully endeavoring to make the chair recog-
nize him, was then heard to move as an
amendment that the Merritt house or Nc
Carthy delegates be admitted.
The chair declined to entertain the mo-
ton, but upon protests frem Messrs. Gull
len, Ringwald and others, reconsidered his
ruling and decided to entertain the mo-
tion.
Mr.. p. Butler then moved that both del
egations be rejected, in which he was sus-
tanned by Mr.. Fuller, who thought that the
only course to secure harmony.
This motion failed to attract the notice
of the chair, who ordered the secretary to
call the roll of delegates upon Ringwald's
motion, which resulted 20 in favor of ad
hitting the Mccarthy delegates to
against, and that delegation was admitted
as follows: D. Hickey, Jr., John Noonar
and John Bayer.
FOR MAYOR.
The delegates disposed of, Mr.. JIG. Don
nelly and Wm. Delaney, rising to their
feet at the same time, nominated Hon. c.
d. O'Brien for mayor.
Mr.. Ringwald moved the nomination be
by reclamation, which motion prevailed
and Mr.. O'Brien was declared the unani.
NOUS nominee.
Following the announcement Mr.. VIM
Delaney offered a resolution pledging the
delegates to the active support of all the
nominees OF the convention, which was
adopted:
NOTIFYING TIE NOMINEE FOB MAYOR.
