MoYLAN 1N THE rouRrH.


The Democratic Assembly Convention
in the Fourth district WAS held over
Toner'S saloon. on Central avenue, last
night about half-past eight. The conven-
ton was unusually harmonious and
lasted about ten minutes The first
ballot was Moylan, s; Kern, 6, and
Gaede, /.
The vote was than made unanimous
Tor James Moylan. Moylan is q city
surveyor.
FOURTH DISTRICT REPUBLICANS
The Republicans of the Fourth district
held their Assembly convention at Kess-
ler's Hall, last evening, and quite teapot
tempest occurred. The Rev Mr.. Meury
was announced to be candidate for the
nomination. Rejected Grand Juror
r.. rten was in attendance, hopeful that
he might obtain the nomination When
the first ballot was announced Mr..
Meury, much TO the surprise of some led
The following was the result of the first
ballot:-M eury, ~; Durrell, 5; Dawby, 4;
Hammerschlag, A; Pfngsten. 4; Van Der
zee. l; Lansing, l.
When the result of the vote was an
nounced recess OF fifteen minutes was
taken. During the recess, old Pop Bar
nett created scene by denouncing ali
the men who had voted for Mr.. Meury,
whom he denounced as Democrat. This
was denied by Mr.. Bleum and a circle of
interested men formed about the contest
ants and urged them on.
During the recess it was ascertained
that Mr.. Meury would not accept. On
the second ballot the vote was Dr.
Hornblower, Is; Phngsten, 70; Kern. l..
blank, 2. The chair announced that as
the convention consisted of SO men there
was no majority. Mr. Pfingsten
then arose and stated that he
would Withdraw his name and would
move to make the nomination of Dr.
Hornblower unanimous. Mr. Pfingsten
then MADE speech stating that he never
wanted the nomination, but wished to
haunt the flag in the breach.
Old Pop Barnett then said the proper
time TO Withdraw name was before the
vote was announced. This caused con-
siderable merriment.
DR.. Hornblower was then nominated
by acclamation. When brought before
the convention, however, he said his
business would compel MIN to decline
the nomination. The members of the
convention then decided to nominate
Charles A. Pfngsten by acclamation.
When he saw that he had the prize
within his grasp he suddenly became
coy. He only wished to be a sacri-
fice at best and he didn't
know whether circumstances would
permit, etc. He, however, took the
nomination on condition that he have
till today at noon to make up his mind
conclusiveiy. Should he decline the
nomination will be made by the Execu-
tive Committee.

Guilty he made his way to the coat room
Although the audience was composed
of Republicans from all over the State
the General seemed to be personally ac-
quainted with nearly every one. and all
showed their affection and esteem by the
heartiness of their greeting. This was
especially noticeable in the case of the
army veterans, several members OF the
old Jersey Brigade in which the General
served with distinction being present.
One of them remarked, when the General
was responding to the address Of well
come to him by the president of the club,
THAT was very neatly done, but If you
want to hear him talk, you must be on
hand when he dons his rusty old uniform
aud steps out in front of the old boys as
they stand in line at the reunions OF our
brigade

the whole evening until the time for
leave taking. He then returned to the

his departure on his mission to the king

that he will be back ia time to take part
In the Presidential contest OF 1899, and it
would not be surprising. in case the Legis-

his friends should insist upon his making
a contest for the q. s. Senatorship.
The members of the League Club were
congratulating themselves that they were
able to have as guests at their first public
reception the ministers to two such great
nations as Germany and Spain.
