case the machine Republicans declare
their intention of renominating AID
there will certainly be defec-
ton in the Republican ranks. Said a
prominent First ward Republican, who
has kept close watch of the council in
general, and Aid. Lindahl in particu-

and at intervals into a room in the
Central block, at Sixth and Seventh
streets, and slipped postal card into
a big cigarette box. The visitor would

thirteen candidates were being voted
for on Friday, the 18th Of the month,
made John Finehout, Judge of the cleo
ton, regret occasionally that he was
also a candidate. S. A. Walker, clerk

cigarette box and a suspicious eye
upon the judge-candidate. At $3.50 p. m.
the box was seized by the clerk, hidden
beneath his coat and hurriedly removed
to the private Office in the New York
Life building of Carl Taylor, president
of the league. Three hours later Mr.
Taylor announced that the vote had
been very, very close, but that A M
