held and the preliminary business gone
through with, when 1t was moved that
an adjournment be taken, subject to the
call of the chairman, Ii. E. Blaisdell. 1t

for r. B. Thompson. Mr.. O'Brien was
a candidate two years ago, when he
made a vigorous fight for the alder
manic position against Aid. Snyder.
The ward is for the most part Repub-

Two In the Seventh.
In the Seventh ward there were inter.
esting times. The anti Woodward men
massed themselves together and did
about as they pleased. The Wood ward
delegates withdrew from the convention
and held one of their own. Inc pro.
prietor of the hall attempted 10 eject
them and brought a policeman with him
to enforce his demands upon the rump
convention people. He was pacified by
Aid. Woodward, who gave him So and
a cigar. The convention was held and
Aid. Woodward was declared the NOM
inee. In the convention proper N. l.
Colburn was nominated. At the pri-
maries it was claimed that Woodward
received a majority of the votes, but
his opponents threw themselves into
the breach and outnumbered him. He
had six opposing candidates 10 work
against. Colburh, Harper, Gray, Wat
sou, Carney and Spillman. 1t was all a
put-up job. but Woody" insists that he
will run in spite of them all.

ward, as stated yesterday morning.
The ring candinate, Frank Hey wood,
fell with him. an outsider. Seth NJ.
Hewitt, coming in on the nineteenth
ballot and receiving the solid vote Of
the convention. Both Flanders and
Haywood made a hard night for the NOM
ination but it was found impossible to
get the convention around to the point
which would give either of them a ma
jority of votes. The fight in the Eighth
ward has been a %diSgraceful IL and
now both Flanders and Haywood will
have ample time for reflection.
Disorder in the Ninth.
The candidates in the Ninth ward
were Eric Rhode, S. G. Brown, Herman
Vogt, w. NJ. Stanley, Steve Rogersou
