PERRIELL0 READY
 TO THROW IN HAT
C0stigan Not Interested in Republican Nomination
 for Mayor

While Maj. J. Peter Costigan of Alma street, retired Army officer, asserts he is not interested in be- coming a candidate for the Republi- can nomination for mayor this morning, former Mayor Patrick M. Perriello revealed thta he would like to run again" but would not say when.
 Major Costigan told the Democrat he definitely was not interested in the nomination.
 He also declined to comment on the rumors that he would be can- didate since they were transmitted without his knowledge or approval.
 T didn't want to complicate mat ters," said the popular veteran of two years whose entry into the poli- tical field would have been gra- ciously received by Republican big gies.
 MT. Perriello, who appears to be on the other side of the fence, spoke most tactfully in revealing he was ready to be approached for another bid for the office he held for four months after Mayor T. Frank Hayes resigned in August, 1899.
 When I was mayor of the city, I started job that was left unfln- ished. I do figure to run again. When, cannot say. The last time I got the nomination, the party fell down; I wasn't given Chinaman's chance and I don't feel that my de- feat in that election put me on the shelf"
 The ex-mayor is under the im- pression that the Republicans have the best chance in generation to win this year, If they nominate the right ticket"
