Hot Fight In the Eleventh.
In many OF the wards the aldermanr
&c contests are attracting more attenr
ton than the gubernatorial contest o.
the senatorial fight. One OF the live.
Hest scraps" Is In the Eleventh ward,
where Aid. link, Theisen and Fred W.
Knapp are engaged in three-corner-
ed fight. Knapp Is showing CREST
strength In the central precincts and
his friends believe he has good
show for one OF the places. Aid. Gut
man is sure of denomination In the
Third ward. while ex-Ald. Kingsley
and Aid Koenig are running close
race for second place. Aid. Ellis -
certain of denomination In the FIT
teenth, while Charles Keller's show
ing is causing Aid. Rutter's friend
some anxiety. Aid. Goeschel ana
Lempke. In the Thirteenth, have some
formidable opposition In ex-Ald. Brox0
and Charles Mccarthy Over IN the
Fourteenth. Aid. Freiwald and Walsh
are two very busy men. or the SIX
other candidates who are running Tor
the nominations Henry Barneskan ana
William III. Barrons seem to have the
most strength. William Blessing, one
OF the Republican candidates In the
Fifth, is showing unusual strength IN
some of the precincts while AID.
Deimel, on the Democratic side, has
some pretty stiff opposition for re-
nomination.
II Is estimated that about 10000
votes will be cast In Detroit.
