THREE: IDENTICAL
 TICKETS IN RAGE
 FOR MAY0RALT1Y
(Continued from Page One.)

lCOQl1lu9u l of Gallagher, BIakeslee and New man on the Independent ticket and notice of such substitution has been sent to the Secretary of State.
 This action was taken in order to correct a misunderstanding which arose through the holding of the Democratic convention on Saturday, October instead of Friday, Octo- Der 3.
 An agreement had been made by Hugh Lavery, town chairman of the Democratic party, Frank E. Ballard, of the Independent party and Arthur Gray, of the American Labor party, that, provided the Democratic con- vention was held on Friday, Oct. 3, and the proper candidates nominated, the Independent and Labor parties would join with the Democra tic party and place a fusion ticket in the field.
 Through some misunderstanding the Democratic convention was not held on Friday, Oct. 3, and Ballard and Gray were advised that they could not legally file their tickets later than Saturday noon.
 The Independent and Labor parties met on Friday, Oct. 3. and named a compete ticket in order to preserve their full rights in case three tickets were in the field.
 Since the night of the Democratic convention several meetings have been held and discussion took place as to the best course to pursue in order to satisfy all the elements that are supporting the Fusion move ment.
 Messrs. Gallagher, Blakeslee a1ri Newman voluntarily resigned as can- didates because of their earnest de sire to assist in the election of AIler E. Vincent and to remove any sus- picion of bad faith on the part ot Ballard and Gray.
