LAYTON ALSO INELIGIBLE.
Sussex has again changed her clector
DIR. Layton, on being informed of his
selection in place Of Marvel, informed
the delegates that he is also ineligible,
as he holds a Federal ofllce--that of
chairman of the examining board of
surgeons for pension applicants in Sus-
sex county.
ThecauCu then named Thomas Curry
of Nanticoke for elector DIR. Layton
also declined the complimentary vote
for Congress, which tho Sussex caucus
unanimously rendered him. This leaves
the field clear for the nomination. Of
Willis by reclamation.
