II. .CalIahan-OnIy One Ticket In Some
Wartis--No Contest Over State and
Congressional Delegations.
The democratic primary contest, such
| as there was, yesterday centered on the
election of delegates to the convention
/ 10 nominate q judge of probate. The
two candidates for this nomination are
! James J.. P;gott and Colonel Timothy
f. Callahan, and the contest in THIS
city developed into a struggle between
the so-called administration and the
anti-adminiStrati ton forces, since Mayor
Drscoll and nearly all the city officials
appointed by him threw their influence
and strength into the balance for Col
onel Callahan. There are in the city
bprobate convention seventysix dele
gates and it was figured last night
that as the result of the primaries Mr..
Pigott would have A and Colonel CAL
lahan SO.
The delegations are supposed to be
divided as follows: For Pigott-TWo In
the First ward, five in the Second, nine
in the Third, three in the Fifth, four In
the Sixth, eight in the Seventh, five in
the Eighth, four in the Tenth, two IN
the Fourteenth, and two in the Fiji
teenth. For Callahan-One in the First
ward nine in the Fourth one in the
Sixth, six in the Ninth, five in the Elev-
enth, eight in the Twelfth, two in the
Thirteenth
OF the other towns in this probate
district besides New Haven only East
Haven have already elected delegates.
The probate delegation chosen Is said
to be divided
So far as could be learned last night
the DELEGATES elected to the city con-
vention which chooses delegates to the
state convention are practically unani-
mously in favor of the nomination or
Judge Samuel l.. Bronson for governor.
The congressional delegations are said
to favor by a large majority the nomi-
nation of James Fl. Webb for congress
while the senatorial delegations un-
doubtedy favor unanimously the nomi-
nation Of James p. Bree for state sena-
tor. For the nominations for represen-
tatives from this city there are several
candidates and it is now impossible to
ascertain with any degree OF accuracy
the strength of the various candidates
The primaries We're held from to
n. m. In some of the wards there were
warm contests, while in others only one
ticket was in the field and little inter-
est was manifested in the primary vot-
ing. In the following wards there was
only one ticket in each ward First,
Fifth. Sixth, Eighth and Tenth.
