Very little change is noticed in the
standing this morning. although Miss
Alice Byrne by polling close to- 1908

ems her position and incidentally
shows her friends that she is stifl In
the race with the firm determination
of being among the winners at the
finale.
Miss Olga n. Ellis still maintains
the lead, although she did not poll d

Others in the contest put a 1-x
