 Politics were rampant in this city yes- terday afternoon. In most of the wards the politicians were hustling for the votes as though it were a matter of life and death to them. Every sort of conveyance that could possibly be used was brought into play. Night hawks that had not seen the light of day for years were brought into active use from their long sleep and rushed hither and thither for delinquent voters. The McGann faction in the Third ward were on deck and made clean sweep by good sized majority. In the Fourth the "Old Men" conquered. In the Sixth Harry Leigh was showed under and sWar Horse" Gilhuly, as usual. came out on top. The fight in the Seventh ward was spirited, but Janitor Kelly of the city hall, came out of it with flying colors, Ahearn being showed under. The voting in the rest of the wards was light, not much ex- citement being occasioned. The result is as follows:
