Mr.. Healy protested, and said if the
members appearing to be elected in
the ward were elected, he did not be-
ieve there was a man in the house
who would not see them seated. He
called attention to the fact that his
motion had been seconded, but the
chair said he did not hear the second,
which was strange, under the circum-
stances, and recognized Mr.. Miller
motion. That Mr.. Healy had not only
one second but two, is undoubted, but
Mr.. Miller'S motion was put, neverthe-
less, demand by Mr.. Healy that Mr..
Riley be heard, being ruled out of or
der. The roll was called on Mr.. Mil

Before the vote was announced Mr..
Healy asked if the First ward men in
dispute were entitled to vote on the
question.
The chair said that was hardly a
fair question to ask him, but decided
that on the face of the returns they
had, and ordered the Second ward re-
turns to be read. For this he was
heartily applauded by the Republicans
in the lobby. Mr.. Healy remarked
that he just wished to know how things

know how to act.

from the various wards be simply read,
and this was done, no further contests
being developed
Mr.. Healy then renewed his motion
for recount in the First ward, but
was ruled out of order Mr.. Healy
asked for the reading of the ordinance
in regard to disputed seats, but was
also ruled out.
