anu eoHASIIbtS. III ING luIu NaEu JOnu n,
Reese gave the present Councilman, IT. J..
James, a surprisingly good shake for the
nomination for Council. James secured 143
votes and Reese 106. Considering that James
has always been considered as having full
swing in the ward and it was Reese's first
venture in politics the latter can take come
pride in the run he made.
In the Fifth ward the contest for Council
was also very close and James S. Thomas
beat Daniel Lauderman by but one vote.
The contest for confer1ees was between
three men all day yesterday, John Watson,
G. G.. Palmer and NJ. j. Lawlor, but as the
sine for the primaries to open drew near il
was evident that the latter stoed little chance
Of success. At about p. IN. all the favorable
chances seemed to drift toward Palmer, but
between that hour and the opening of the
primaries Watson forged to the front and
according to the expressions Of the conferrees
elected it appears that he should receive the
nomination for Chief Burgess tonight by a
vote of about ten to five.
Three other spirited events Of the evening
were the contests for chairman in the Third
ward, and the contest for conferrees in the
Second between D. H. Llewellyn and Edward
Kester. II. E. Dengler beat r. A. Davenport
for the craftsmanship by vote of 80 to II
and Llswellyn defeated his opponent by Que
vote.
