 Two Years.

Mayor James B. Martin yesterday ordered meeting of the board of al-, dermen for Monday night, this being formality incidental to the foregather- ing of the legislative branch of the fcity government which will organize at that time, Ex-President John Q. / Johnson, whose aldermanic career clos ed January 1 with the death of the old board, will, 1t is understood, be suc- ceeded by Andrew P. Allen, one of the democrats unless the democratic ma oritys plans miscarry. The democratic members say that their candidate will go through without a slip. The repub- licans, who number nine, will have caucus tonight. and will present the name of Alderman Emil Loos of the Eighth ward. who has senatorial aspir- ations. The democrats have Michael Moran in mind for assistant city clerk, as successor to Attorney A. Oswald Pallman. Another job at the disposal of the aldermanic board Monday night is that of page. Edward Collins, the son of Alderman Patrick I. Collins, is the name agreed upon by the democrats for page. He was up for the place when the old board was organized but was defeated by Mawley W. Lincoln.
 The republicans have not agreed upon any man for the place of assistant city clerk nor for page.
 Henry H. Townshend of the First ward represented the old board on the finance board. The board Is expected to name successor to MT. Townshend, whose term expired January 1, and un- less the majority is disturbed in it's derman -at-large will succeed him. The Republicans whom they will put in nomination against Miller, and 1t might be MT. Townshend, although he has already stated that he doesn't care for any more experience on the finance board.
 | The aldermen will be sworn in by Mayor Martin, and one of the first mat l ters that will be brought to the at- l tention of the new board, after officers have been selected, is the question of approprlating $450 for an electric en- zine and pump for the artesian we'll that ex- Mayor John P. Studley had dug some feet west of the present town pump to provide the citizens of New Haven with pure water.
 | Emil Loos will bring the matter up. l it Is expected, and Alderman Richard B. Healey, who is returned to the al-s | dermanic board from the Eleventh. is I expected to oppose it on the ground that it should be shown by the public works department that there are other ket than the one that ex-Mayor Stud ley and City Engineer Casslus w. Kelly
 agreed upon as being suited for the
 purpose Healy has proved to be a con- SlSleHl OppOuent Ol tue pump pTuJcCb
 ever since Mayor Studley sought to
 good thing for the public, and was sup- | emergency measure The ex-mayors
 argument was that it is needful and
 god thing for the public. and was sup- I ported by a majority of the sub-cOm-
 mittee to which the matter had been
 committed.
 At the last session of the old board
 the matter was to come up but Alder

 and nail for the appropriation, 1t is
 said.
