| Insurance COMMISSIONER +.
Stewart Of New Castle county.
| The above Slate was the subject of Il
conference held between State Chairman
| Chlirchman. Postmaster Browne and
lu punt yesterday. 1t is believed by
many Anti-Addicks men in this city that
the above slate will be placed in nomi-
ttion by the insUrgent convention on
Tuesday.
| As to the Guhernatorial nominee ii is
highly improbable that Dir. J. Ii. Chan
dler will accept the nomination against
III. George w. Marshall already named
OH the harmony ticket put in the field
by the Union Republicans. 1t is also
unlikely that Walter H. Hayes would
| consent to accept ut the hands of the
Anti-Addicks Republicans, the nomina-
lion with Dr. Caleb Il. Layton still III
the field on il harmony ticket.
No one seems 10 doubt for Il minute
that Daniel t. Stewart will hesitate to
stand as III" Insurance Commissioners
nominee. Stewart occupies tIlr peculiar
position Of Il man who is ut odds with
ill classes of Republicans and equally
objectionable ~ all. Thu likelihood of
endorsement Of the resi- of the Dove;
ti, ket is 1T least encouraging.
du Pont Fights Knowles.
iii Pont has carried his fight against
ex-senator Higgins to the point where
prominent Higgins Republicans as well
as the tX-Senato. himscli are to ~
barred from Tuesdays convention. Iii

bore the name Of Horace tireclos
Knowles scratched through with pen
mark. Mr.. Knowles leaning toward cN-
Senator Higgins is said to make him
Objectionable to Colonel du Pont and
Tom Lewis and Churchman have UNDER
taken the task of defeating Knowles.
Every Anti-Addicks voter in the Sew
pnth ward yesterday received ticket
Oh which the name of Knowles was
scratched off
Higginsi in the Fight.
Ex-senator Anthony Higgins who has
been spending few weeks ut the sea-
shore returned to this city yesterday.
He is hack for the fight and it was said
yesterday that the word had hecn sent
down the line that Henry Il. Thompson
| and VIM. Michael Bylne. nominated A.,
delegates from the Seventh ward are to
be defeated. 1t seems that next Mon
days primaries are to afford lots of
practice in ticket scratching. The IIig-
gins men were very confident yesterday
that large number Of Higgins men
would be sent to the convention.
