MANY HINTS OF KNITTING.
THE COUP OF THE FIFTH WARD
ERS AROUSES THE IRE OF
THE OPPOSITION.
To Nominate, in Perfect Harmony,
the Standard Bearers of Munic-
ipaI Victory in May.

This morning, at 10 o'clock, the Democratic
city convention will meet in Market hail. The
delegates will gather absolutely unpledged to
any man for any Office, but unmistakable in
dications point to Hon. Orlan o. Cullen as the
nominee for mayor. He will be practically
forced into the public service, not only by
the united demand of the Democracy. but
through the pressure brought to bear on hin
by hundreds of good and influential citizens
who vote the Republican ticket in state and
national affairs. Representative men of the
character indicated have waited on Mr.. Cul-
len, singly and in groups and have insisted
that he must accept the Office of mayor at
the city election.
Mr.. Cullen was besieged yesterday by yari-
Gus delegations. He received everybody cor
daily, listened to what they had to saw and
courteously expressed his own opinions. After
tne conferences, he said to the G o b e re-
porter that he had no formal announcement
to make He did express the belief, however,
that the convention to be held today will be
harmonious in it's actions, and will make
strong nominations. 81 hope" he said. 1.-THE
delegates will decide on another man than NV
self for the mayoralty"
That most lively interest has been aroused
was indicated by the numbers of well-known
men of every shade of political opinion who
visited the Windsor at one time or another
during the afternoon and evening. Several
men 1dentihed with the meeting held at Mar
ket hall on the 9th held a consultation in
private room, but for what purpose could not
be learned. At the same time delegation of
Populists was meeting in a committee room
with well-known Democrat. When the con-
sultation ended the Pops at once left the ho-
tel, and the Democrat said there was nothing
to give out for publication.
The deep soreness which many Renub
icans feel over the nomination of Doran is
mahifestlng itself in a quiet but significant
manner Dissatisfied men, as a rule are
keeping close mouth, but there are enough
fmpulsive disappointed ones to amply evil
dence the general feeling of chagrin over
Capt Castles defeat. 1.-THE men who re-
nominated Doran will have to elect him.
SAID one gentleman who runs large estab-
hshment on Sixth street; land the party
"nippers-ln will find themselves powerless to
overcome the determination of a large BODY
of Republicans to vote for another man than
the one given US by Saturdays convention

There was much bitter even If suppressed
comment yesterday over the action of the
Warren people. A story is current that Cant.
castles managers had entered into some sort
of deal to get the Warren votes after the
first ballot. 1t is said the agreement would
have been kept if it had not been for the lack
OF generalshlp shown by the Castle men in
the fight for temporary chairman. Gen
Flowers protest against Markham's election
did more than anything else, the Warren
men say by way of excuse, to nominate
Doran. But beyond that Pete Thauwald and
others were chafng under the allegation that
the Fifth was merely trading delegation.
At the moment when they had discharged
their promise to Warren by voting for him.
they became convinced that If they wanted
to secure Doran's nomination they must move
rapidly. On the next ballot the Warren dele
gates in the Second, Third and Fourth wards
were to have declared for Castle. That would
have put the postmaster neck and neck with
Doran. Then Warren was to have appealed
to the Fifth warders to vote solidly for Cas-
tie, and the convention would be stampeded.
The scheme failed, however, and Castles
friends are not satisfied that they got a
square deal.
A Democratic ratification meeting Is talked
of for tomorrow evening at Market hall, when
notaries can attest signatures to the nomina-
ton papers. 1t is pointed out that this course
would be more expeditions and satisfactory
than to attempt to secure signatures at the
convention today.
Among the names that will ha considered
