The Republican voters of Bayonne held
last evening their several ward primaries
for the nomination of ward tickets n
the election of delegates to the party's
Mayoralty Convention and the Sixth AS
sembly district Republican Freeholders'
Convention. Owing to a disposition to
defer action until after the Democratic
primaries on Monday night, no ward NOM
nations were made save in the Second
ward, where an incomplete ticket was
named.
In the First ward the matter was post
poned until Tuesday evening, and in the
Third ward until next Thursday evening.
The efforts of the friends of ex-Council-
man William c. FAIR, of the Second ward,
to secure a majority of delegates to the
Mayoralty Convention favorable to his
aspirations for the nomination, were en-
tirely unsuccessful.

First, fifty-three votes were polled, and
all were cast for his selection for delegates
to the Mayoralty Convention, Messrs.
