A GREAT THRONG OF SPECTATORS
WATCHED THE CONTEST.
Soon after 3 o'clock the doors We're thrown
open and the delegates made a rush to find
their seats. This made easy by big placards
bearing the names Of the wards. Many dele.
gates were at loss 10 understand the system
used In placing the wards. and not few sus.
pcious persons hinted at trickery. Such fears
were soon dspelled by the discovery that the
places OF advantage had been given mpartially
TO the wards which furnished the leading candi-
dates.
Long before o'clock the big building was
packed 10 the walls. The spectators outnum.
bered the delegates five to one On the stage
were many prominent Republicans and not Q
few Democratic brethren who had come to see
the fun. One OF these was Charles J. Edwards.

and Sheriff ButtlIng had long conference near

Many Of the County Clerks young men
pected to see their side benefit by a display OF
magnanimity on the part Of Mr.. Willis by
which Worth would b. allowed TO name at least
one candidate for the sake Of harmony. but the
magnanimity did not appear. The word was
soon passed along that quarter would be

Willis and Trenchard had won. the Worth men
conferred and presented proposition to LEU

a request that the Executive Committee. which
