Delaware gazette and state journal. (Wilmington, Del.) 1883-1902, 1891-06-25

am IGdr Mr.. Larson, The above names
are those we had selected as Democrats for
the force excluding the two whose names
we did not have yesterday. | have just
telephoned to Mr.. Jester and he agrees
with me as to the approval Of the names
you may send in. Yours, very truly,
s. j. WILEY.
June oath, 1891.
The names alluded TO in Mr.. Willey's
letter are as follows: A. J. Sherry,
James I. Scott, Charles Ill. Mason, Du-
Bots sutton, John A. Solomon, William
r. Todd, Charles ]. Brady, James
Thompson, Joseph Howgate, John Nc
Daniel.
These were the names selected by
Wiley and Jester yesterday afternoon
for the Democratic representation, but
they finally agreed to allow Mr.. Lawson
to make his own selections. He retained
only John A. Solomon. Howgate, one
of those thus dropped, is Dickey's
brother-in-law, whom the dethroned
Democratic boss tried desperately to
save, but who now goes down in the
general wreck. II leaves Dickey with
out an appointment upon the force that
he can call his own. In his foolish
attempt to run the whole machine he
has bowled himself completely out. He
is now the "dcad cock in the political
pitt
Mcdaniel, another of those dropped,
is brotherin-law of Commissioner
Jester.
GREETED WITH GRowLs.
The usual result, general growl,
greeted the announcement, this morn
ing, of the new police appointments.
The chosen few rejoicod, while those
who were disappointed complained
and found fault The latter class being
largely in the majority Of course they
made by far the greater noise.
now WILEY REWARDED MS FRIENDS.
The maddost people are the Republi-
cans who supported Messrs. Shortlidge
and Baynard respectively, at the Repub-
llcan nomination for mayor The
friends Of these two candidates were not
only remorsely rejected, but those mem
beers of the present force who supported
them, with two exceptions, were given
leave of absence after July LIST. These
two exceptions are officer William
Floyd, a Baynard supporter, who was
retained through the good graces Of
Captain Mitchell, and Special Officer
Francis, Shortlidge man, who was
promoted 10 he captain This was not
done on ShOrtlidge's account, however,
but was a concession to Commissioner
Jester, Francis being a brothcr-in-law
of Mcdaniel, TESTERS business paltnCr.
Mr. 3aynard asked for one man only,
and as late as ! O'Clock yesterday after
noon had the promise of Wiley and
Jester that he should be appointed. But
the promise was forgotten before even
ing.
Officers Yates and Samuel r Brown
were kept on because of the great work
they did for Wiley at the Third ward
polls during the nomination, the former
yilely abusing John Ii. Graham, can.
edidate for City Council :and threatening
him with personal violence.
james l.. Hawkins and George T.
lialton were appointed detectives be-
cause Of their faithful work for Wiley.
llatton acted as secretary of all the
private Wiley meetings held during the
nominating campaign.
Charles II. Ewing, one of the new an
pointees, has no other recommendation
than the fact that he worked for
Willey's nomination.
