The members of the Board of Aldermen whose terms expire this year are as follows; First ward, Frank A. Mnnson; Second ward, Charles spreyer; Third ward, James E. Nc Gam; Fourth ward, James J. Kennedy; Fifth ward, Isaac Strouse; Sixth wasd, Der nard F. Reilly; Seventh ward, John F. De- frees; Eighth ward, Benjamin E. Brown; Ninth ward, Eli Whitney, jr.; Tenth ward, Herbert E. Benton; Eleventh ward, John 0. Bradley; Twelfth ward, William A. Kelley. Of this number MT. Munson of the Firs', MT. Brown of the Eighth, Mir. Whitney of the Ninth and Mir. Benton of the Tenth are Re publicans, and in order for the Republicans to hold their one-third in the Board it will be necessary for them to elect Republican sue cesscrs. There is but little doubt but that they will do this, and there is @ fair prospect that they will elect MT. Kinney in the See end, which will be an increase of one, giving the Republicans nine instead Of eight, as it now stands.
 The Republican Aldermen holding over are T. R. Trowbridge, jr., G. L. Dickerman, Charles E. Graves and Hugh Daley.
 The Democratic Aldermen holding over are Robert A. Hollinger, James N. States, William Hughes, Henry F. Goebel, William J. Bradley, Henry R. Hill, Francis s. Fisher ana Jonn J. bT6uuhu.
 The charter amendment providing for the election of members of the boards of com missioners by popular vote does not meet with much favor even among Republicans, and if it does not get one-third of the vote it is defeated.

 IN THE FIFTH WARD.
 MT. George E. Maltby writes as follows: 'tI see by the papers that my name has been used as candidate for Councilman from the in spite of my reiterated refusal to allow the same. As informed the committee, rec ognize the necessity of some candidate being put up in the ward and would be willing for the sake of my party to accept any nomlna- tion with certainty of defeat that l would accept if there was an equal certainty of cleo tion Having been both elected and defeat ed when a candidate on different occasions for that office from the Second ward, have no further desire in that direction and would not accept the office if could receive it by appointment. I therefore feel justified in in sisting that my name does not appear on the ticket"
 Chairman Hugh Daley, te whom the mat ter was referred by Mr. Maltby, replied that | the ticket with the gentleman's name upon ii | is printed and that he has no power co make the change asked for now.
 SEVENTH WARD CONTEST. | Friends of Alderman Defrees of the Sev enth ward deny emphatically the repor 1 that he declines to be candidate for Alder man in that ward and want it stated tha | he is still in the field.
 l The following, which was drawn up il 1 Lawyer Ul1man's office, was printed in al evening paper: | William J. Bradley, Chairman of Seventh I Ward Nominating Committee
 | hereby decline to be a candidate fo | Alderman in the Seventh ward Thanking the Democrats for the honor rendered, l am respectfully,
 l JOHN F. DEFREEs. IN THE FIRST AND OTHER WARDS. l The First ward is Republican ward b, | 200 majority, although occasionally Dem | ocratic Alderman is elected from the ward Last year MT. Hull, ex captain of the Ya]
 crew, was elected @ Councilman from tls
 ward by the Democrats. The Re-~blan
 ticket this year is: For Aide Mr
 Martin, who has done efficient e' ? -l- l-seEZice- as 2 Councilman; and
 inent Mason, also an ex-city father, fsaving serving efficiently as Councilman; A. M. bert o. Warren, the broker, both capable men. On the Democratic side for Alder man in this ward is Prof. Newton, the as- tronomer at Yale; for Councilmen, Dr. c. P. Lindsley, J. J. Tierney, the photographer, and one other.
 Friends of MT. Martin class as ridiculous the claim in an evening paper yesterday that he voted in the Council to retain the old State House, that question never having come up in that form. The statement made also that he had said that one dollar day was enough for laboring man, MT. Martin s friends characterize as false and unworthy of credence or of attention except as to it's use against him in the pending election They say all who know MT. Martin and his dealings with men under him and his views regarding wOrkingmen have no patience with such charge The other claims made to influence votes in favor of the Democratic candidate are denominated as evidence that the instigator of the article in the evening paper was "hard up' for campaign argu- ments, Mr. Martins record in the Council having been alike most honorable and credit able to him as 8 man, and citizen of iudg- ment, discretion and ability.
 In the next Board of Aldermen will prob- ably sit MT. J. D. Whitmore, the vice-prin- cipal of the High school, who will without doubt be valuable acquisition to the ranks of the city fathers.
 Republicans are looking to the Eleventh ward with the hope that it will elect Re- publican Alderman to-day.
 The Democrats and Independents of the Tenth ward have put a ticket in the field which is made up of Democrats and Inde- pendent Republicans, and last night they distributed circulars throughout the ward addressed "To the Citizens of the Tenth ward, and which reads as follows:
 The Democrats and Independent Republican voters y of the Tenth ward have submitted to you the city and ward. you all know to be clean, independent man. who served in the late war with credit to himself and contracts for his relatives, but who will take interest in the taxpayers. We now have debt of property owners are taxed ali they are willing to man, who if elected will do his whole duty and will help to stop the useless expenditures of our taxes mean rent. So all turn out to tis polls and helpto stop the flow from treasury.
 MT. Lathrop you all know is a man of ability in- tegrity and honesty: lie recommends himself by bis daily life and will also receive large support
  Mr. Brennan is a builder and taxpayer; man whom every citizen of the Tenth ward knows as temperate, honest and capable; always in the in crest of the people, and if elected will prove to you hat the affairs of the city and ward will not suffer ID his hands.
 John H. Rowland, who is on the Republi- can ticket for registrar of vital statistics, will make good race to day with the chances of winning strongly in his favor He is very popular, not only in his own ward, but throughout the city. If elected he would ill the position with credit to himself and to 'he satisfaction of everyone with whom he 1ad official dealings. Both Republicans and Democrats will honor themselves by voting ;or MT. Rowland.
 The question of sticense" or ssno license', s also to be voted on to-day. The liquor | iealers, fearing that the town would not pro ride sufficient ballots, have had ten thousand l printed and circulated to provide against any | contingency that may arise. The no license l advocates are also wide awake and will do | heir best to poll a large vote.
