BAIL FOR RYAN,
His Wife is in Town and is Trying to Sc
cure His Release.

Tuesday noon application was made to
Bail Commissioners Frank and Morrill,
for q reduction of the bail Of James RYAN
of New York, the young man who is
awaiting in jail the January session of
the grand jury, charged with robbery of
an aged man named Stetson at Union
Station. The testimony at the hearing
before Judge Robinson showed that Ryan
was caught with his hand in Stetson's
nooket. Judge Robinson put Ryan under
$1,000 bonds.
Ryan's wife, an excellent appearing
Young woman, has come to Portland to
secure her husband IS release on bail. She
also brought letters tending to show her
husbands previous good character. She
had been able to raise $500, and would
offer that for bail.
County Attorney True opposed any re-
duction of the bail He said thai Ryan
was held for an offence which would call
for a states prison sentence in case Of
conviction; and the bail should be ample
tn secure his attendance before the court.
II was urged on the other side that
RYAN had worked for florist in New
York. that he was coming to Maine to
look for a cousin named John Ryan, that
he was not concerned in the robbery, and
that, even, if he had been, his prpvious
character had been good
Hon. George NJ. Seiders appeared for
Ryan.
The bail issioners decided that
they could not reduce the bail below $500.
Mrs. Ryan said that by pawning her
possessions she had been able to get the
$500: but there seems to be much doubt
about her being able to get $500.

Although the March elections are still
severaltmonths saway, there is already
considerable interest in the selection OF
candidates.
In Ward One Councilmen Illsley seems
to have the lead for nomination for alder
man.
prominently mentioned as their own
successors. The third councilman for One
is in doubt.
No one seems to know much about
Ward Two; but Alderman buddy will
undoubtedly be his own successor, as
that would be his second term.
Councilman Mannix and Henley are
also said to be booked for third terms and
Councilman Dougherty for q second
term.
These are all Democrats, of course. The
Republicans of Two have not yet begun
to think of candidates.
In Ward Three, the great contest seems
likely to be over alderman. Council
men Kent and Nickerson are understood
to be in the field; and ex-Councllman
Edgar E. Rounds is surely in.
For councilmen there seems likely TO be
some contests also, although not OF the
great interest that attaches to the alder
manic field. Councilman Pine Will
probably be renominated. Two places
will then remain to be filed. Among the
names mentioned are Messrs. E. e..
Brown, A. Smith, W. S. Trefethen and
Jason Pickett
In Ward Four there is some talk of
Alderman Peters for third term. but
TX Councilman W. E. Howell seems to
be forging along strong. No one is talk
ing much about the other places The
Republicans of Ward Four, like their
brethren of Two, have not thought it
necessary to trouble themselves much yet.
In Ward Five the aldermanic situation
absorbs all interest. Does Alderman
Little want third term? He doesn't say.
President of the Council Pagan seems, to
be the man on horseback in that ward,
and many expect to see him alderman.
AS for the Council, Mr.. Stevens has been
in South America and has now sailed for
Japan. His intentions cannot be ascer-
tanned. Coucilman Dow will probably be
renominated. Ex-Councilman r. S.
Laughlin has been mentioned for the
third place.
In Ward Six contest between Charles
J, Mcdonald and Frank T. Holland for
the nomination for alderman is attracting
all eyes. For councilmen there is not
much talk, although there is feeling in
favor of some good business man for one
of the places, and Mr.. G. A. Brown has
been mentioned.
But after all, it is in Ward Seven that
the great cloud of dust rises, for there is
the great chariot race Of the year. The
contestants are spoken of as Lindley M.
Webb, Adam P. Leighton, Daniel +.
Nash and Charles E. Snow. All of these
have served or are serving in the Council.
Councilman Slower is said to be prevented
by ill health from entering this contest
There does not seem to be much left for
the councilmen's contest.
So much for tie aldermen and council
men, About the Republican nomination
for Mayor there has already been not q
little talk, and there has been general
request that Mayor Baxter be candidate
again. 1t is understood that he has con-
scented, and will be a candidate.
