 For the shrievalty nomination the name of Henry B. Sanford, chairman of the democratic town committee is being persistently put forward. Ward- en James H. Peck of West Haven is also mentioned for the place, and there is belief that the McGann forces, which, after their victory early in the
 week will dominate the situation, will
 bring out a dark horse.
 The congressional deal for to-night has not been fixed up The workers are still casting about for candidate.
 There seems to be little doubt that Attorney James B. Martin is slated for
 the position of democratic central com mitteeman from New Haven.
