A CONTEST LIKELY.

Much Speculation as to Control Of New
Board of Aldermen.
Unless the leaders get together and
make some compromise, it is practical
ly certain that there will be hopeless
deadlock when the new board of alder
men assemblies aext Monday night The
absence of Alderman Brown, who Is in
the south for his health, leaves the
board evenly divided between the two
parties.
The democratic side Of the house,
which was in the minority in the last
board, is determined to make the most
of its opportunity. The board will be
called to order by Mayor Studley, who
will Immediately turn the chair over
to a member of the old board. Then
the balloting for president OF the new
board will begin.
The democrats, it is rumored, are de-
termined to get either the presidency Of
the board or the assistant city clerk
ship. The effort, however, will be to
land the presidency, and Alderman
James Maxwell is prominently men

been a popular member Of the last
board, and has many friends on both
sides of the house. Thomas H. Mol
10y, the new man from the Fifth ward,
is candidate.
Among the republicans Alderman
John o. Johnson is looked upon as the
most likely to get the place If repub-
lican is chosen. President Henry Town
shend, Of the 1906 board, is mentioned,
but it has been rumored that he may
not try for the place, as he Is said to
be slated for a position on the board of
finance to succeed Alderman Holman.
President Townsilends "square-deap'
methods met with favor from both re-
publicans and democrats last year,
No democratic candidate for the as
sistant city clerkship has been mention
ed as yet. The candidate on the repub-
lican side is the present incumbent, At
torney "A. Oswald Pallman.
| One of the first petitions that will be
| introduced in the new board will be for
temporary bridge over the railroad
cut at Olive street. Conditions are very
bad in that part Of the sity, and some
relief must be had.

Public opinion did not demand his

which led tothe scully tenantry voting
solidly against all public improvements,

WILLIAM sCULLY, LANDLORD.
A Remarkable Man Who Believed in
America.


A Remarkable Man Who Believed in
America.
4 The death of William Scully, an
American citizen from necessity and
not from choice, recalls several things
1t will be interesting and profitable to
remember. scully's foresight in select
ing lands in one Of the western states
of the north is, perhaps, not to be so
much commended as 1t Is likely to be.
Hardly anybody of that day could have
failed to see that the lines of great ma
terial development would run westward
north of Mason and Dixon's line. AS a
matter of fact, great developments was
already in progress along that line
when Scully began his purchases Of
central Illinois lands. Where his sa-
gacity was displayed, at the best was in
buying before prices had reached an
advance which would make the cost
out of proportion with the income pos
sible to landed properties at that time;
prices, however, never seemed to go too
high for Scully. His faith in the fu-
ture of this country was boundless.
He was a man of remarkable compre-
hensiveness in the grasp with which he
included all of the elements of a ques-
ton under consideration. If his high
intelligence had been given to the SER
vice of any state or country, Scuny
would have left greater legacy 10 the

$3.50 WILL BE EXTRACTED

From Amount to be Paid Contractors
for Building of the Kimberly Avenue
Bridge.
At a meeting held in the West Ha-
ven town hall last evening 1t was
agreed that $2,25o would be extracted
from the amount which the city of New
Haven and the town Of West Haven
are to pay the American Bridge com
pany for the building Of the new lift
bridge on Kimberly avenue. The sum
is to be taken out of the original debt
on account of the contractors not COM
pleting the bridge on time.
The contractors only wanted to have
81. 800 extracted and the city Of New
Haven and town of West Haven wished
$780,
The meeting last evening was a very
short one, as the men decided upon the
amount without much discussion.
