The only sensation IN city politics yes
ter1ay was a little episode which oc-
CURED last night at the odd Fellows hall.
Sealed letters were sent out yesterday by
President Osborne Of the Citizens Club 70
q number Of members Of the club. mem
Iers Of the campaign and other commit
tees ID IS supposed. requesting them to
meet az the ODD Fellows hall. In some
way this came 10 the knowledge Of a
Duncan man, and he decided that he
would take in the meeting. Accompan-
led by q friend he went to the hall, and
secured admission, going in with a party
o. club members and keeping in the back
ground The two Duncan men remained
fer some time before being noticed long
enough to discover that the meeting was
being held for the purpose Of passing
upon the aldermanic ticket to be pre-
scented 10 tine meeting OF the club to-
morrow night. and TO hear the names
of the majority OF the ticket Their pres
enee was discovered, however. and they
were promptly hustled out without cere-
mony by several able-bodied members Of
the club. one of the parties informed a
Morning News reporter that the names
Of the aldermanic candidates which he
heard read out were as follows.
Col William Garrard. Thomas screven.
@. a. Hudson. J. j. Corolan, Il. c. GIea-
son. DIR. J.. a. Falligant. and S. Krous-
kon. The two Duncan men were elected
before the reading Of the ticket was COM
Ileted. and consequently they were unable
TO give any further information.
The announcement that the gentlemen
whose names are mentioned above are
10 be on the Myers ticket win create no
surprise as they have been associated
with tho ticket by general report for some
time. The public viii probably remain In
the dark as to the balance OF the ticket
untl tomorrow night. A report has been
ia circulation for several days that the
.syers men would complete Their ticket
10y taking three or four names from the
Duncan ticket. This may do injustice to
the a.dermanic timber of the Citizens
Club, but "a Morning News reporter was
80 informed from a very reliable source.
The names, which it Is reported the Myers
men are likely to put on their ticket which
are already on the Duncan ticket, are:
John r. Young, W. NJ. Bohan " A. Fol
lard, and perhaps George j. Mills and
John IT, Lubs Some OF these gentlemen
are known to have been solicited to 70
upon the Myers ticket previous to the an
nouncement of their candidacy upon the
Duncan ticket.
The Duncan men were generally con-
graduating each other yesterday upon the
success of their meeting Friday night and
predicting the success Of the ticket. Every
Duncan man VINO was seen expressed his
satisfaction with the ticket, and his be
lief chat it was a much stronger one than
the other side could possibly put out
Inc confidence Of the Duncan men was
greatly increased by the meeting 1t is
pretty wei decided that they will hold
smother mass meeting this week, at
which speeches will be delivered by sup
porters of DR. Duncan.
In the Morning News report of the Dun
can Meeting, Mr.. duBignon was made TO
say that a decision is now pending In the
supreme court, which would be delivered
within the next twelve days, which would
determine the whole matter Of the streets
which the city IS endeaVorng to open
across the savannah, Florida and West
ern raiWsy. What Mr.. duI};gnon did
say, was, that the respective rights Of the
city ana Of The railway company would
De determined by the courts that a bill
was now pending in the superior court Of
Chatham county which would be heard
at the present term. and that no one
with ordinary intelligence would suppose
Tor moment that the result of the mu-
nicipal election could or would in any wav
affect the judgement or decree of the court
IN the premises.
President Osborne and other members
of the Citizens Club wish it understood
that the board Of aldermen accredited to
the Myers ticket, on the dummy ballots
used ct the Duncan meeting, is not the
official ticket by any means. Alderman
OBrien, they said, Is not on the Myers
ticket. The Citizens Club meeting to
receive the official ticket. which will be
held tomorrow night, Is expected to be a
very large one.
II is understood that the device which
has been chosen to head the Myers ticket
is an American hag With a flag at the
head of one ticket and wreath at the
head of the other there will be no lack of
style about the official ballot.
DR.. =. a. FCllgant is said to have an
nounced himself to the aldermanic can
didates as a candidate for chairman of
council, in case of his election which he
considers assured Dr. Falligant wants
to be in a-position in council where he can
make his influence felt and at the same
time get proper credit for the work done
by him
