SELECTING THE DELEGATES

SELECTING THE DELEGATES
To the Republican, City Conrentfon-Choice
for Aldermen as Indicattd.
The Republican caucuses were held last
evening in the several wards of the city to
choose delegates to the city convention to be
held at Market hall on Tuesday next. 1t was
the desire Of the convention that each ward
delegation should meet and nominate its
alderman on the day of the convention, but
as each alderman was represented in dele
gate ticket, the result is indicated with more
or less clearness by the choice for delegates.
The best judgment of the shrewdest politi-
clans, after the caucuses were over, placed
the result, by wards, as follows: First, d.
E. Baisdell; Second, probably c. A. Coe;
Third, DR.. Alex NJ. Nye; Fourth, W. W.
Woodward; Fifth, j. NJ. Parker; Sixth, per-
haps Charles Johnson, but very much mixed,
Swanson and Breary each claiming it; Sev-
enth, c. c. Richardson and Phineas Phelps,
Eighth.
The results, by wards. were as follows:
FIRST WARD.
First Precinct-C. B. Smith, John Fischer,
B. Hunton.
Second Precinct-J c. Sterling, E. F.

bell, G. A. Moore, l. H. Spear.
The delegates were instructed, but mas
much as the names of Mr. Coe and Mr..
Spear are the only ones among the aspirants,
it is quite likely that the aldermanic nom

gentlemen.
