Rumors Flying Thick and Fast
Summing 1t Up-The Board of
Health Rumor.
The meeting of the board of alder
men for the election of commits
be held Monday evening, and the air
Is full of rumors of bolts. Bolts are feared
by the republicans and looked for by the
democrats. There has been story circu-
lating to the effect that the nomination of
Gilhuly was to be bolted. This Is laughed
at by politicians on all sides. There is a
story in circulation to the effect that two
republican aldermen are going to bolt the
entire slate. Many reason that this inten-
ton was clearly shown at the meeting OF
the board of aldermen Thursday evening.
for G. T. Driscoll in the ballot for corpora
ton counsel does not show any bolt. But
when q republican vote was cast for Frank
W, Foley for second member of the board
Of finance, when the party was supposed
to stand together, it Is significant. Some
of the knowing ones say that this was only
scare on the part of the alderman who is
looked upon as most likely to bolt. They
say that when the time comes for q bolt
the eight republicans will be found all
right.
One we'll known democrat said last even
ing that he thought the republican slate
would 90 through all righs. He said that
bolt could be arranged if there were not
go many democrats looking for something
from the bolt. Theee democrats were max
| ing middle of the whole affair. There
are several of the rule or ruin kind, and If
| they are not to be directly benefited by
j the bolt they will do their best to kill it.
| It is said that several prominent republi-
cans have dared republican aldermen to
| bolt, and has even gone SO far as to make
| threats.
Although there is great deal of secrecy
| about the wire pulling it is generally known
| that the democrats are trying to arrange
| for bolt with Alderman Morgan. They
| wish to place Commissioner Sheehan OF
the board of police commissioners. They
| will return Fire Commissioner Wines fol
| Morgan does not have anything to say or
! the matter, but it is said by his friends
| that he will be found all right when thu
| time comes. It is we'll known that he wal
| very much chagrined at the defeat of Com
! missioner Wines in the CAUCUS, but it Il
| claimed that he recognizes his duty to hi
| party and will stand by the caucus slate
| There are few who fear a bolt from an
other quarter.
| In connection with this the story of al
| upheaval in the board of health may b.
discussed. There are several who say tina
this will not be done. 1t may be explained
here, however, that the expressions of Al
derman Kelly in the board of aldermen
Thursday night have peculiar signif
canoe. He said in substance, speaking t.
| Alderman Blakesiee: "For number O
years the republicans have been in powe
in this state. They had at their dieposa
several Offices, judgeships, etc. Can yo'
show one instance in which they appoint
ed democrats The democrats of New Ha
ven have at their disposal several Office.
For many years they have generousl.
shared their Offices with the republicans
They will now take everything at their die
| posal. I think they can get it."
