PRESENTATION AT STATION FIVE
Capt. Costine Given a Fine Picture of
His Company Last Evening.

Capt. jeremiah Costine of the Fifth po-
lice station was presented with magnifi-
cent gronp picture of his company last
evening at the station. A large number
of invited guests were present, the wives
of the officers and admirers of the force
turning out in good numbers Among
the ladies were the members of the Ladies'
Whist Club, whose husbands belong to
the department. Alderman Burrows and
Fuller and Councilman Darling and
Angel were present, beside whom there
were Councilman-ele Mccarthy, ex-
Councilmen Trask and Sweeny, ex-City
Assemblyman Dwyer, Chief of Police
Child, and Capt. Frank d. Garrety,U L. ;. y.
The presentation speech was made by
Chairman Bradbury who dealt feelingly
on the great respect and veneration in
which the captain was held by the officers.
He said that when the drill was com
menced the men decided to act in unison.
They had labored hard to attain success
and now, that their efforts had been sue
cessful, could rest upon their laurels, Sc
cure i'm their qualification at being the
banner company.
Captain Costine responded in n few we'll
chosen words of thanks and briefly re-
viewed his fifteen years service on the
force He reflected upon the sympathy of
the distinct residents with the policeman's
work and stated that while he could not
say the victory in the competitive drill
would 20 laundering down the ages, yet he
did believe that IL would have a good in
fiuence on those who come after.
Chief Child expressed himself as pleased
with the manifested good feeling between
the officials and theft captains, reviewed
briefly the causes that led To the winning
OF the competition by the Fifth company.
Aldermen Burrows and Fuller also
made few remarks complimenting the
officers on their good appearance.
Capt. Frank ID. Garretty said that he
had never made a speech in his life, and
would rather fight tribe Of Indians than
do IL. lie talked for several minutes and
concluded by saying he did not dare TO
say too much I'm favor of the officers of the
Fifth, because he was afraid il he did that
when i'm other districts the officers there
could run him in.
Officer j. II. Wilbur next presented n
second group picture to the station in n
neat speech, and was followed by Coun-
cilmen Angel and Reynolds and Council
man elect Mccarthy, all Of whom spoke
pleasantly of the good will evident in the
station. Remarks by j. &. Monahan and
Capt. Sanders, the veteran captain of the
district, concluded the exercises.

The workers" i'm the Third ward were
doing their utmost TO get out the full Pot
ter vote but with all their efforts only "a
fair representation could be induced to
express their opinion on the ballot and
the Democratic vote in this ward bids fair
to be much smaller than had been counted
The Republican minority in the ward
turned out well, better in proportion TO
the representation in the ward than the
Democrats.
During the forenoon il was unusually
quiet about the ward rooms on West
River and Smith streets, but during the
noon hour 1t livened up somewhat
and Potter's friends began to
hope that they could send
down one OF the old time
majorities for which the Third and Tenth
are famous, but after 10 o'clock it quieted
down again, and after that the carriages
were kept busy bringing the Democrats
who could not enthuse over Potter sufli
ciently to get them Of their own accord.

In the first district of Ward only 140
had voted up to 1890 o'clock, a light vote.
In the second district of the same ward
260 had voted, but the vote was not pro-
crossing very rapidly. This number is
smaller than at the same time of day in
the election last week.

The ELECTION TO-DAY.
The Republicans Are Confident OF
Success and Hustling.
A FAIR VOTE COMING OUT.
Incidents in the Various Wards and the
Progress of the voting-Many Wards
Ahead Of the Last Election In Their
Balioting.

The polls opened this morning for the
second attempt to elect Mayor and Sen
ator. The Republicans have been hard at
at work and are very hopeful of electing
Mayor Smith this time. The returns
ought to be In early tonight, as there are
only two names to count.
In most of the wards the voting was
fairly good, and some wards were far
ahead of the last attempt in the number
of votes.
Ward One.
The voting i'm the first district Of the
first ward started In quiet and steady.
During the early part Of the day general
inclination was manifested by the citizens
to poll an early vote, but toward noon the
rush fell off, Frightening up between 12
and o'clock, and, later, relapsing into
the dull routine broken by an occasional
voter.
' At ~ o'clock less than 300 votes had
been cast showing a slight increase over
that of the last effort.
The Second district preserved its char
acteristic quiet feature, but 26O votes hav-
ing been polled at noon. A slight rush
was experienced early in the day and dur
ing the noon hour, but the interval be
tween was monotonous and undisturbed
by any great excitement.
Ward Two.
In this ward the voting was quiet and
harmonious. Carriages were in requisi-
ton and brought the average at noon
rather above that of the last election.
The voting in the first district opened
lively and continued so until nearly o
O'Clock, after which there was noticea-
BILE falling off, with bracing up as man
ifested in other wards at noon. At l2
o'clock 32s votes had been polled, and the
usual rush was momentarily expected.
The second district was unusually quiet
and peaceful, 240 votes being polled at
noon. The midday contingent turned out
i'm good force and helped to swell the list
above that of last week.

Ward Four.

One hundred and thirty had voted up to
II o'clock to-day in the first district of
Ward e. This is not so heavy a vote as
was. polled up to the same time in last
weeks election.
In the second district 260 had voted up
TO the same time This is about as heavy
a vote as was polled last week at the same
time Of day. Things, however. presented
a very quiet appearance.

In the First district the vote is coming
out good and strong, 1873 votes being
polled at 12 o'clock, which is twenty i've
more than were polled at the same time on
November -. The vote seems to have a
good Republican complexion and the COM
mittee are working with will.
The voting in the second district is
strong. showing 3i1 at IL o'clock against
33I at the regular election. This district
is the home of brother Potter and Henry
&. Clark, but in spite of this the Bepub-
lican committees hard work is already
apparent and il is hoped before the day is
over TO exceed the majority given for
Smith in this district last week.

A heavy vote for Smith is among the
probabilities. Democrats do not display
their usual confidence i'm this ward, usual
ly considered the stronghold Of Democ-
racy. IL IL said that money Is
flowing ~ freely as water from

are being made 10 bring every voter

Ward Ninc.

Over 200 votes were cast up to I O'Clock
which is less by nearly 80 than were polled
at the same hour Nov. "a. The fight for
school committee is said to have brought
out a good many at that time and as full
a vote is not looked for to-day, but the Re
publican vote is, TO all appearances
stronger in proportion to numbers.
3 In the second district the voters are
coming out slower than at the election
last week, there being but 400 votes cast at
/ o clock, which is certainly 100 less than
the figure then. The Republicans are
bringing out fair vote, while the Demo
erats do not seem TO be up TO their usual
strength. Both ward committees, how
ever, are working hard and the evening
may show decided change in the con
ditions
