YONKERS. n. Y. Sept. 3.-Final re-
turns to-day show that Mayor William
j. Wallin, of Yonkcrs. was renominated
in the hotly contested Republican
primary by a margin of thirteen votes
over Ulrich Weisendanger. OF 6,695
ballots cast Walin received 1854,
while Weisendanger got 3.34l.
Because Mayor Wallin increased
strcetcar fare for the Yonkcrs railroad
many persons opposed him in the pri-
maries.
Followers OF Alderman Frederick H.
Stilwell, who opposed an increase in
carfare and is now the Democratic
nominee for Mayor, say the fact that
Mayor Wallin just squeezed through
his own primary indicates weakness
and that the Democrats will win the
general election in November on the
fare issue.
1t is reported that recount may be
asked by the Weisendanger faction.
