Neck and Nack.

In the contest for the Democratic nomina- tion for the city clerkship Alderman Nc Gam and Lawyer Bernard Shanley appear to have the lead, and the candidates are re- garded as standing neck and neck in the race.
 Alderman Spreyer and Frederick Brethau- CT, Captain Phillips Ex-Chief of Police Jon- athan Pond and other Democrats are talked of as candidates for an assessorship. On the Repablican side no one is talked of.
 Dr. Bissen, the present registrar of births, deaths and marriages, is strong candidate for the office at the next election; also John J. Clerkin, of the almshouse staff of officials, is candidate for the position and has many friends who will aid him in the contest.
 In the Eighth ward a Republican alder man is to be elected and Alderman B. E. Browns friends say he will not run again. It is said that First Councilman Rutherford Trowbridge can have the nomination for al derman if he desires it, but that he is not seeking it. Councilman Lawrence of this ward is reported undesirous of renomina- tion, but it is said that he will be asked to serve again.
 In the Ninth ward Councilman Pohlman will probably receive the Democratic nomi- nation for alderman. In the Eleventh Seth Langley is a candidate for aldermanic hon0rs.

Collision Case Decided.

Justice Andrews yesterday decided the case of Fales vs. Thompson, giving judgment for the plaintiff to recover $100 damages and costs.
 The action was brought to recover damages for injury to the plaintiffs carriage resulting from collision with the defendants hay wagon near the Chapel street railroad cross ing December g, 1884. The plaintiff claimed the defendant did not conform to the law of the road, which requires that when one team passes another from behind it should take the side which is most practicable. The plaintiffs attorneys were William H. Law and George P. Ingersoll. The defense was conducted by ex-Judge William B. Stoddard and James s. Thompson.

xorNG REPUBLICAN oLUR.

Last Evenings Meetfng-An Enter-
 prfsIng Spirft-The Work and suc-
 cess of the Club-Action Last Even-
 ing.
 The regular monthly meeting of the New Haven Young Mems Republican club oc- cured last night at the Atheneum, wee President Winchell presiding. There were forty members present.
 The club has now been organized year and has reason to be proud of what it has accomplished during that time. When it is considered that it was organized at most inauspicious time-when the reaction rom the unusual excitement of the presidential campaign last year threw the majority ot Re- publicans into a state of political apathy from which they have hardly yet recovered the young men who have borne
 the burden of the club and have
 succeeded in establishing an organ
 ization of respectable young citizens should
 be congratulated and encourage 1t by all loyal
 Republicans, young and old. Surely any or ganization which has for it's chief aim the ed ucation of our youth respecting their duties as citizens and as voters should be supported.
 The club has been accused ot working TOT selfish ends. Those who know the young men who are shouldering the responsibility of the organization are convinced that this is false. They are laboring in an entirely disinterested manner towards securing good local governments. Believing, however, that an idea or princi- pie evolved from young head, if good one should be respected as much as if it came from an old head, they propose to sus, | tain any laudable ambition on the part oi | worthy young citizens. Further believing | that the political signs indicate demand | for new blood and new energy, they propose l to push forward the good work until the City ! of Films is redeemed from the Democracy. The meeting last night was a very enthusl
 astic one. Seven new members were elect | ed. The subject of increasing the circula tion of the ''Young Republican was dis cussed. Very fattering reports were re | ceived from the editors of the paper in re 1 gard to it's prosperity. Preliminary remark 1 were made relative to the election of officers | of the club, which will occur at the meeting 1 in December. Instructions were given tn | advisory committee to call caucus of tn | members of the club in the various wards t 1 nominate gentlemen for the advisory com | mittee to be elected in December. MT. Will liam E. Talcott was elected an honerar
 member of the club.
