THEY LOSE IN THE WARD FIGHTS
Two of Their Strongholds Successfully
Attacked and the Second Ward
Withstands a Desperate As
sault by Their Strong
Combination.
Tho Snriug oleetlons held in town yester
day were the most lively and intereting in
three of the wards since the days when the
ourtli aud Hfth wards were so close in their
political complexions that but very few votes
wero required to turn them. The results
may Iks pronounced decisive victories for tbo
Citizens party. In tho Second, Fourth and
ifth wards, tho only battle fields of tbe
elections, the Democrats putupasdelermincd
ngbts as they over undertook. This was es-
ecially tlio case with reference to tho Second
ward, where Michael Mellct aud Dr. Jutues
Ilrennau mado tho efforts of their lives for
election as Councilman and School Director.
respectively, and both were defeated by safe
majorities.
As to the Fourth and Fifth wards tho
itizens also claim decisive victories, in that
they gain a Councilman in the former and a
School Director in the latter. Besides this.
tbe Citizens elected their entire ticket in tho
Fourth ward, with tho exception of Sohool
Director, which means that they secure con
trol of the election board. For years past
the Democrats have waged strong battlo to
gain this point, and tboy held it for several
consccutivo years Another gratifying re
sult for the Citizons is the election of Luke
Walsh as Constablo. Walsh Is a Democrat.
nil when tho Citizens' nut him on their
ticket the Democrats looked upon it as a
eat joke.
Tbo Democrats have consolation in the
election of their borough ticket, but thoy
havo no room for jubilation, as the majorities
of their candidates aro tbe smallest given on
the borough ticket in many years. It is
true that the voters of the First ward did
ot come out, hut It is likewise true that
over four-fifths of the Republicans of that
ard failed to go to tlio poll, and in the
Third ward the Republican vote fell over 100
short of what it was last year, while tho full
Democratic vote was out.
The total voto in tbo borough yesterday
was 1,725. That of 1S!)S was 1,019. showing
decrease of 221 votes for this year. In tho
prlug election of 189S T. J. Mullaby, Demo-
rat, for Borough Treasurer received a
majority of 377 and Mlchaol Byrne, Demo
crat, Borough Auditor, by a majority of 274.

A PROTEST.
It ts not yet certain that the Citizens can
didate for Council in the Ffth ward, William
Brown, is defeated. Cyrus Guise, the Citi
zens Inspector, and David Davis, tho Citi
zens Overseer, protested against the returns,
claiming that Peter Harkins, the Demo
cratic Judgo of Electiou, threw out a number
of Citizens ballots on alleged irregularities,
and yet admitted to tbe count a number of
Democratic ballots which should have been
thrown out. Steps were taken this morulug
to bring tbe matter to the atrentlou of tbe
court, as It Is claimed that, should the pro
tests bo sustained, Brown will be declared
elected to Council.

Bernard, 13-year-old sou of Adam Shaskus,

shortly after five o'clock last evening by a

however, and tho operation was not under

stated that tlio boy was almost pulseless.
Dr. D. John Price was called to the scene
of tho accident at 7:30 o'clock last night. Ho

car also declined, but a third crew complied
with the request of the physician.
Among those who accompanied the boy to
tbe hospital was his father, a boarder and
a friond. After reaching tbe hospital tbo
