 The seventh Ward.
 | lH6 caucus III LIte otVcIllH WdIQ Wdo | held at the blacksmith shop at No. 771 Grand avenue. The shop was packed, and the space in front of the shop was crowded with democrats and republi- cans Ward Committeeman Samuel J. Well called the caucus to order and John J. Radigan was nominated for chairman by the Warner crowd. w. A. Gillespie was named by the Mclean men. An attempt was first made to vote by a division of the house, but SO many democrats were present that the Mclean men objected to this. sug- gestion that a ballot be taken met with the same apparently well grounded ob- jection and finally 1t waD decided to. vote from the check list. It was then that the regular ward voting list was resorted to instead of the check list, as mentioned above The vote from this list proceeded until all who wished had voted, when it was found that Mr. Rad
 gan had been chosen chairman by a vote of 136 to 36 Morris Weiss was chosen secretary All the delegates were voted for on one ballot and the follow ing were declared elected: Samuel J. Weil T. DElia, J. J. Moakley and A. Heindrich.
 The Eighth Ward.
 In the Eighth ward there was hot time, and although the Mclean men were beaten by small majority, they fought hard and contested every inch of the ground As soon as the caucus had been called to order Oscar P. Ives and James D. Dewell, jr., were named fov dl,o oir,, a was taken and MT. Ives was elected by vote of 130 to 94 H. Mather Brooks was elected secretary.
 For first delegate w. F. Hopson was named by the Mclean men and R. Sherman Baldwin by the Betts- Warner faction. The voting was by ballot, not from the check list, and the ballot for first delegate resulted as follows: Bald win 122, Hopson 110 For second dele gate Harry B. Brown was nominated by Alderman E. I. Atwater and Alder man Sattig by J. B. Roche. Clarence Deming of the Ninth ward was i'll the hall busily engaged in distributing bal lots for the Betts delegates and in other wise working in the interests of that faction when J. D. Dewell, jr. before the ballot on second delegate had been counted, moved that men from other. wards be excluded from the hallJ He charged that a Ninth ward democrat was peddling tickets in the hall and he thought that it should be stopped. E. I. Atwater held that the motion was out of order, as the ballot had not yet been announced. The ballot was an- nounced as follows: Brown 125, Sattig 103. Chairman Ives then requested that all men who did not reside in the ward leave the room. He said that the cau- GUS was one of the Eighth ward repub- licans and that there was room for no one else. MT. Deming left the hall.
 For third delegate E. I. Atwater and George H. Woodruff were nominated. At this point ex-Mayor Farnsworth took the floor and said that he was go- ing to vote for MT. Atwater because he was opposed to F>yler. He said: 'T am opposed to bossism and that is what O. R. Fyler stands for. I have been a kicker against bossism for years and whenever I have wanted to kick some one has rubbed my back and said Don't l kick now, wait until next year. I have waited and now want to kick and kick right here. MT. Fyler has been well paid for what he has done.
