CARMALT HAS A FALL.

His Chief opponent, Hemingway,
 Receives About 1,4OO Majority
 over Him-He Is Scratched in Every
 Ward-Clerk1n Beaten i'm His own
 Ward-Plunkett, Graves and Hem-
 1ngway Elected. ''
 With his present term, Dr. w. H. Car malt will retire from the board of educa- tion. This is what the votes of the people declared yesterday The doctor has been an exceedingly active member of the board for the past year but it would seem that his activity has not accorded with the views of his constitu ents. His position in the Whitmore matter and in handling the evidence was unsatisfactory to many peo- pie, including many of the doctors per sonal friends, so said some of his friends yesterday.
 The election was not an unusually excit- ing one. The heavy rains during the day undoubtedly lessened the size of the vote in all of the wards. The Hemingway tick ct, however, was the popular one, as the COURIER alone has predicted and stood by all along, and each of it's candidates were elected by handsome majorities. Dr. Carmalt ran way behind his ticket in all the wards. The total vote cast for him was ,209, while his chief opponent, samuel Hemingway, received a vote of 2,601 ,or ,392 majority over the doctor des- pite Clerkin's vigorous work and split tickets.
 The largest vote cast for any candidate for membership of the board was that cast for Charles E. Graves-3, 766. This was due of course, to the fact that his name appeared upon both tickets.
 Alderman Clerkin received 1, ,454 votes, barely 200 more than his fellow in misfor- tune, Dr. Carmalt. He ran behind the Hemingway ticket badly in his own ward.
 There were but few scattering votes and most of these were in the Second ward. Here David McNamara got two votes for clerk of the district, and R. Lynch and H. B. Dorman each two votes for auditors, T. A. Todd and A F. Hume two for treasur- CT. Morris F. Tyler received one vote in the First, Second and Fifth wards for member of the board, and Henry B. liar rison received three for the same position in the Tenth.
 The complete schedule of the ballots of all the wards for the several candidates will be found above.
 Very much of the credit of this signal success of the Hemingway ticket or anti Carmalt ticket, so-called, is due to the in telligent work performed by some of the leading Irish-American politicians of the Third, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh wards, whose interest in the schools led them to oppose the scheming by which it was at tempted to foist MT. Clerkin upon the board. These gentlemen were especially emphatic in their condemnation of the vicious ticket which had upon it the names of both Clerkin and Plunkett. This ticket it was thought by Clerkin's friends, would help him, but it proved boom erang. Of course, MT. Plunkett had noth ing to do with such piece of work. MT. Plunkett would not consent to the use even of pastors in his favor, but declared to all who asked him to do so his intention | to stand or fall with the rest of his ticket. Beat His Wife.
