The vote polled was one of the heaviest

quarters all was activity during the
day. Voting was heaviest during the
forenoon, but uD to the closing time,
votes continued to struggle in until the
ballot boxes closed and the returns
were made at the City hall. In Ward /,
the contest for constable waXed warm

was no contest, but despite this fact,

voters. The results in the various
wards were not at all unlocked for, and

in the six wards of the city were as fol-
