 -The question of who will be the Lithuanian candidate for alderman on one of the democratic tickets in the third ward has not as yet been settled and the situation appears to be grow ing more complicated. It was thought the race was to be run between Jo- seph Stokes of Riverside street and John Miznaitis of Bank street, but new man has entered the field. He is Charles Bolth of Riverside street. who has been an unsuccessful candidate for alderman once or twice. His friends would like to see him nominated once more, and think they could elect him this time. There has been more or less talk about the Lithuanians having agreed upon Joe Stokes as the candi- date, but there appears to be but little foundation to the story. Mir Miknai- tis isn't worrying about the nonina- tion, so it is said He would be Vi
 ing to withdraw in favor Of Joe Stokes, so the report states, but his friends are eagerly urging him to have his name placed on the ticket. And thus the situation stands. Sev- eral conferences will be held between tonight and Monday morning, wnen it is hoped that the matter will be settled to the satisfaction of all con- cerned in the race.
