VEST HAVEN ELECTION.

Democrats Elect Nearly Complete Ticket / Crawford Fails of Re-electIon-A Quiet
 Election and Much Scratching Done--
 Votes Not Counted Until Midnight.
 The borough election in West Haven yesterday took rather of a democratic twist, the democrats electing everything on their ticket with the exception of one assessor.
 Kimberly, the democratic candidate for warden, was elected by a majority of 113. Crawford, the republican candi- date, had lead of three votes on the straight ticket, but the great amount of scratching done turned the scales in favor of Kimberly.
 A large vote was cast for a borough election, nearly 500 electors casting their ballots The polls were opened from F to 8 p. m. and 1t is probable that this had much to do with the large vote.
 The election was a quiet one and there was comparatively little hustling after votes.
 Owing to the large number of scratch- ed ballots the counters did not complete their task till 12 o'clock
 The vote for the various candidates was as follows:
 Warden-Erwin J. Crawford, rep, 241; Dennis A. Kimberly, dem., 354, Kimberly elected.
 rgesses-William w. Lines, rep, 3O2; James H. Reynolds, rep, 296; John Mackrille, rep, 29S; David M. Monahan, dem 2S8; Charles T. Sherman, dem., 294; Frank A. Sohn, dem., 293. All of the above were elected.
 For clerk-George E. Bailey, rep, 2S9: Adrian c. Heitman, dem, 309. Heitman elected.
 For treasurer-James Tolles, rep, 279; John F. Barnett, dem., 320. Barnett elected.
 For col1ector-Rollin I. Hine, rep, 221s Frank Wilcox, dem., 372. Wilcox elect ed
 For ssessors-Arthur T. Benham, rep, 300; Robert B. Pardee, rep, S01; Alfred Powell, dem., 292; Andrew D. Thomas, den1., 290. Benham, Pardee and Powell elected.
 Auditor-Thomas F. Newton, rep, 300; Robert B. Macdonald, dem, 290. Both elected.
 Bailiff-David s. Crane. rep, 2S0; Will liam w. Clinton, den1., BOP. Clinton elected.

captain Thomas in Orange.

Orange, Dec, 3.-All of Orange and a good portion of Woodbridge, Derby and Milford assembled in the Congregation al church this evening to listen to Cap- tain D. S. Thomas illustrated lecture Eighty Minutes in the Heavens" The town has been surfeited with stereop- ticon exhibitions, as about all the anna teurs in the city come to Orange for their opening rehearsal. Tonight, however, was a revelation. The spec tators saw the most exciting incidents in the life of the aeronaut brought out vividly upon canvas. They seemed his companions in his perilous voyages, and for one hour and twenty minutes followed the lecturer amid a silence so marked as at times to seem painful. At it's close the Rev. MT. Hunt rose in the audience and congratulated the speaker upon his success and offered resolution of thanks, which was unanimously adopted.

Derby's Excitem ent.

Derby, Dec. 3.-The annual meeting of the citizens of Derby was held this afternoon at the city hall. There was 8 large attendance, and the meeting was lively one, and at times most sen- sational one. It took the form of re- pudiation of Mayor William c. Atwater and the entire city administration. The mayor, with whom the citizens have become greatly dissatisfied, was unable to secure the passage of single vote in accordance with his wishes, and the meeting finally adjourned, after ab- solutely nothing had been accomplish ed

message is repugnant to everything that have held to on the financial suo- ject through life, and for one l will not vote to repeal the greenback,"
 MT. Brice dem, of Ohio, said; ''Mr. Cleveland's only object was perhaps to agitate the subject of the retirement of greenbacks in this chamber in the press and throughout the country. He could certainy have had no hope of get ting such a measure through this con gress."
 Mir. Gray, dem,, of Delaware, said: His suggestions that we should retire the greenback is a good one and heartily endorse It.
 MT. Tillman, dem., of South Carolina, said: q see nothing in the message that indicates statesmanship or a re- gard for the general welfare of the peo- pie. The policy of MT. Cleveland is surely leading to plutocracy instead of democracy"
 MT Villas, dem., of Wisconsin, said: q will cheerfully support him in his endeavor to have the greenbacks retir- ed"
 MT Peffer, populist of Kansas, said: ''The message makes it plain that the cause of the money changers versus the people must be tried before the jury of the people"
 Mir Teller, rep, of Colorado, said: MT Cleveland assumes supercilious tone in speaking of the tariff and silver. We had the purchase of silver bullion established for several years and we had the Mckinley tariff act and yet the country never enjoyed better season of prosperity than under these two measures"
 Senators Sherman, Morgan, German and Mills declined to discuss the mes sage.
 Speaker Reed would not be interview ed on the message.
 London, Dec. 1.-The Daily News, commenting on President Cleveland's message says a worse financial muddle than MT. Cleveland stated it would be difficult to conceive.
 The News refers to the Venezuela dispute as matter in which the United States are not directly concerned.
 The Standard says: The mainte- nance of friendly relations between the Great Britain and the United States is of such importance that we cannot but regret the tone in which President Cleveland alluded to the dispute with the Venezuela. We predict that when the answer from England reaches the white house it will furnish the prest- dent matter for serious reflection

PLACE IS FILLED,
President Cleveland Names Successor to
 Justice Jackson,

Justice Jackson.
 Washington, Dec. 3.-The president to-day nominated Rufus w. Peckham of New York to be associate justice of the United States supreme court to succeed the late Howell E. Jackson of Tennesse. He also nominated Richard Olney to be secretary of state and Jud- son Harmon, attorney general.
 Rufus W. Peckham is a resident of Albany and judge of the court of ap- peals of New York. The nomination will go first to the senate judiciary com mittee, which always scrutinizes close ly the record of persons named for the supreme court bench, but in view of the high reputation of Judge Peckham, it is believed confirmation will follow as speedily as consistent with the inn portance of the office.
 The senate in executive session con- firmed the nominations of MT. Olney to be secretary of state and Mir. liar mon to be attorney general At D. m. the senate adjourned until to-mor- row.

HOT CONTESTS AND BOLTS
TWENTY CITIES AND TOWNS IN MASSAGE USETTs HOLD ELECTIONS.

In Many Cities the American Protective
 Association Was an Important Factor---
 Large Number of Republicans Bolted
 Nominations.
 Boston, Dec. 3-Twenty of the thirty-one cities in the commonwealth held their municipal elections to-day.
 In many cities, notably Somerville, Brockton, Gloucester, Lynn, Waltham, Quincy and Fitchburg, the A. P. A. was prominent factor in the election and by it's formal nomination of certain candidates and open support of others caused in many instances hot local contests and bolts in the republican, ranks In Quincy, Hammond, the re- publican candidate, endorsed by the A. F. A., was defeated by Charles F'ran- cis Adams, Ed, democrat, by 179 votes, although the city council is republican. In Gloucester the A. IF. A. candidate for mayor was elected by a substantial majority. Somerville, which until with in a year has known no party lines, has been greatly stirred up this year, owing to the endorsement of Davis, the regular republican nominee, by the 4. F. A., which resulted in a large num- Der of republicans bolting the nomina- tion and nominating Albion A. Perrya as a anti-A. P. A. candidate. MT. Per- " had the support of the democrats.
 In Fitchburg the fight was really be- tween the temperance and citizens fac- tions, and as the former candidate was supported by the A. P. A. many re- publicans voted the opposing ticket, re- suting in it's election with Mayor Rock well at it's head. The city government is republican.
 In Taunton, Morris was elected may- or by republican votes over Hawkins, republican, owing to the formers su- perior handling of city affairs.
