Tho Independ ent, Mr Loftus, houevei, could gsmeial lj be idled upon to vote with the Demo ciats and was always counted witli them. The vote on a joint ballot was therefore, Democrats, twenty -two; Re publicans, twenty. The complexion of the new councils Is unchanged as f.ir as select council is concerned Republicans, eleven; Dem ociats, ten. In common council It now btnnds Republicans, nine; Demociats, twelve. On a joint ballot this gives the Demociats n majoiltj of two, which Is vlrtuplly the same as last jear. STORY OF THE DAY'S FIQHT. A Light Vote W as Cast in All I'nrts of the Cit). No election day of recent years passed off as quietly In the central city ns did jesteiday. There were no con tests to excite Interest and many voters did not nut in an appeatance at the polls at all. Only election ofllceis wore chosen In the Eighth an Sixteenth watds, those in the heait of the lty, while In the Ninth and Seventeenth wards on the "Hill" the candidates for common council weie unopposed rni consequently there was little Induce ment for the patilots to got out and vote. In the Tenth waul, whlih em braces the Peteisburg subuib, thcie was not a ripple of exclteme'it. Only election olilcers were chosen th i . It vns not so down in the bivonth waid. Three candidates for common council and two candidates for aldet man made somewhat of a stir, but oven theli combined elfoits did not suf Ike to get out a very big vote Thomas Clark, an overseer in tho Fitst district of the Seventh, created some excitement by declailng that he would not ap in ove of tho return of the boatd In that dtstilct because tlnee men wei" allowed to vote whom he believed weie not entitled to that pilvllege. A detei mined light was waged in the Thl 1 teenth waid for the olilco of common council between the thiee candidates, T. 13. Juckson, Republican, M. J McDonnell, Democrat, und Minor C Can, Piohlbitionlst. Mi. Jackson had the best of the aifiument all dav and when tho votes weie counted last night It was found that ho was success ful. In the Flist and Thiid wauls of tho North End lively lights for common council took place. The fleicest light ing wus done In the Thiid waid, whole James Gilei succeeded In having him self le-elected to the common coun cil by defeating Mi. JlcNamaia, the tegular Democratic nominee. ON TIIE WLST SIDE. It requited the majesty and power of the commonwealth as vested In the sherilf to got things stnitod In the Thiid district of the Fouith waid, where some kind of a. hitch inn be looked for ns renular as election day comes aiouud. The fotmer judge of election, P. J. McAndieu, moved out of the ward last summei and John Hoff man was uppolnted In his place by tho coutt. Hoffman seived at tho No vember election, hut In some way this name was never substituted for that of McAndrew. The latter moved back Into the district a shoit time ago, and oh his name appealed on the otllclal list of judges of election, tho clerks In the county eommlsslaneis' olllce mailed him the ballots and other election para phernalia. Last Saturday he came to tho com mlsslonots' olilco and told Cleik Rob athun that he was not the judge of election and surrendered the lecelpt hi had signed for the ballots saying at the same time that he would ttansfct the ballots to llorfman. It seems, how ever, something or somebody caused him to change his mind In tho Interim for vostoidny mottling he appeared ut tho election booth and piocccded to Usui p the olllce of judge. There was a wi angle, of com so, and several thteat pihhI clashes, hut nfter an hour ot so of this kind of cnirylng on It was de cided to appeal to couit. Judge Aichbald, the county cnmmls slonets and the sheriff wcte Intel viewed and at 0 o'clock County Commission ers Giles Robot ts and John Domuth, nc foinpanled by Deputy Slid Iff Fei ber, piocccded to the scene of the dis turbance. McAndrew offoied no oppo sition when dltected to give up tho bal lots und vacate and about 10 o'clock tho booth was In teadlnoss for busi ness. AT THE LAST ELECTION. At the last election, It will bo lemem bered, that owing ton wrangle and tho Insisting of the Democratic olilcers In having tho votes counted In a certain tedious wny tho returns weie not com pleted until It o'clock of the morning follow lug tho election, twenty -eight hours being spent In the booth by the election boanl. The excitement on tho West Side was not confined to the Fouith waid Theio was a gooij supply of It In the Filth, Eighteenth and Twenty-Ill st wards. Dut lug tlie afternoon woid wnsiecclved at tho West Side police station that a ton was In ptogtess among the Demo cratic wnn lots ot the Eighteenth wind and Pnttolmen Jones and Pauy wont down They icttirned aaln In a shot t time, miscalled and tiophyless. it was onlv a ease of bier sunounded by a man and the beei w anted to spiead Its wings. I he Twenty -111 st waid, also, had a little hot-talk soliee In tho afternoon Mine beei In the Fflth ward, where tho tilanglo lisht fot aldennnn v. as on tlteie was not the slightest dlstutb anie Nobody had time to quariel It was all hustle and keep-you-eye-up-and-dow n-stteet. This waul had the m oat Intel estlng light of any In the city. In the Fifteenth waul Joseph E Oll vei had smooth sailing fot a lo-elec-tlon to common council. His oppo nent. Mi McNulty, did not cut much of a figuie in the contest FUN IN THE TWELFTH. Tho only fun they had In tho Twelfth waul was In watching Jlnimle Kcains canvass fur lelstei ot votois Jlmmle tuvci bcfoie had the opportunity of saying "I nccept with thanks the honoi confined upon me and pioinlse, If elect ed, to ttlllill the duties of the olilco to the best ot mv ability." James was theieloie much a la pea-cock He had a nomination and a nomination on the Democratic ticket in the Twelfth wind moans election He was quite sanguine but still not Ltnitent Ills ticpldatlon was, noticed by some of the lads and they decided to llg up a game on Ke.uns. Fortune fa voted theli designs. Tho specimen ballot which accompanied tho sbei Ill's pioelamiitlon and which was tacked up on vailous telegraph poles thiouBhout the waul, tluoiigh n ty pogu phleal enoi, had James Koons ns the Democratic candidate fot lels tet instead of James Keatns Kcains did not nolle e It until one of the plottet s in a veiy fikndly and confidential sott of a way told him that tho machine was against him and that thoie was a dining scheme afoot to thiou him.point Int, out, as proot, the substitution of Koons' name foi his on the ballot. The blow almost killed Jamerey. In great woiry and tiepldation ho bought out Mai tin Notion, Con Dono an mil others of the leadois to piotost against the action ot the machine and demand the lcstoratlon of his name on the ballot. They htd been posted and of couise Kcarns received but little solace fiom them. Then when he j-uw that everybody in powei was an ay ed against him he sent forth tho ukase "to blazes with all of you, I'll bo elected in spite of the poweis" and pioceoded to Inaugurate an Independent cam paign HE SECURED STICKERS He had stkkeis minted, engaged workeis foi each district and with a couple of his clonics made n house to house canvass of the waul Ycstoiday when the official ballot was shown to contnln the name of James Kearns wheio It ought to be, soellod correctly and in letteis just as big and as pioin lnent as am other name on the ballot, Kcains was nonplussed. When the tuck dawned upon him he swoie for a little while but the thoughts of an as suied election calmed him In time and he smilingly w tapped up his bundles of stlckets with the lemaik "They may cumo handy again ' 'J he Twentieth wanted a fight and ps the rpRiil.it nomine tions didn't piom ise one, they Injected a thiid set of candidates into the contest The llitee paitlos In tht field weie Republicans, Straight Demociats and Tiue Demo ciats There was little oi no excitement despite the ehoit to ctente lOmq. Although several times duilng the day Philip Wiith In the Eleventh felt a little dubious ovei the lesult It was lound when the polls closed that he had but little cause to bo as he had hulf a bundled votes to spare It was a suiptlse to the Phillips men as they confidently expected they weie going to be vlctotlous and boasted oven up to the time of closing tho pollj that they weie sutely vlctotious Both sides had out a latge foice of workeis and the way can luges rolled uiound duilng the entile day made It look as If there was a funeral on oveiy stieet In the ward Possibly more intetest centeied in the Ijght In the Nineteenth than In any othet waul In the city. This was be cause theio were two lmpoitnnt and close contests, one for the olllce of common council and the othet for al dennnn Tho waid Is Democratic, but it was thought tho populaiity of the Republican lanldates, Geoige Wltth, ji , for council, and Jacob r. Millet foi aldeiman, would bilng them vlctoty. Mi Wlrth's victoiy at the special elec tion was also taken as an Indication that ho would be letiiinid, but the cil teilon was not a good one The Demociats didn't come out on that occasion and they did yosteulay. It being a icgular election day. The victoiy of Messts. Sheiidan and Ston Is duo entliely to paitlsan reasons The waul is Democratic and they weie on the Democratic ticket. The small majority goes to show that the Republicans were good woikeis, to say tho lean. VOTE IN DETAIL Number of llullotx, Ciiht for V.ich C'linilulato in tho Oit.
