RUMPUS IN THE THIRD WARD
Oemocrats Following the Example of
Their Brethren in tho Twentieth.
In the Third wfd of the'clty there is
bother among the Democratic breth
ren. Attorneys Hurns and . Donation
yesterday tiled exceptions to Jhe. certi
ficates of nomination of John J. Coa
tello. for select council, Thomas Connor
for assessor, and Patrick. McNulty for
constable. The . petitioners are John
J. 'Kearney,. Richard Walsh and Pat
rick Cav.anaRh, who are candidates also.
Messrs. Kearwy, Walsh-and Cava
nagh state' that they wetv nominated
for the respective-otllces mentioned at
a cuueus. held January. l between 4 and
7 p. m. at the regular polling places in
the First and Second districts of the
ward. The call was made by the citi
zens of the ward, the committeemen
having failed to issue a call In due
time.
On January 20 Costello et. al. were
nominated at a caucus held in the house
of Mary Collins. The petitioners object
to the certificates of nomination of the
Costello ticket on the ground that no
public notice was given, except in the
Scranton Times the same evening: the
caucus was held, so thut the great body
of the electors was not owar? of it. The
alleged caucus was not at a regular
polling place, and was not under the
rules of the Democratic party. And
that the certificates of nomination were
not properly signed. The last assign
ment of error Is that the proceedings of
the alleged caucusers are wholly illegal
and void. The matter will be argued
Saturday.
