Others said the race would be for a jipurse of $100. The efforts of the friends!; of these gen- tlemen fell through, and the result was that Laura J. and Sam Clark's Fuller- ton had a shindy down J the -track for threej heats.

A Little Inside History liejsftrdlnir the Seventh "Ward Muddle "Which Ended in the Nomi- nation of William Wynne—Gossip From Some of the Other Wards and From Our Politics Hidden City Generally—Items l'rom tho Seventh Ward. The Democrats of the third and sev- enth wards have met in caucus during the past week and nominated respective- ly John J. Coffee and William P. Wynne for aldermen. T h e t h i r d w a r d developed a three-cornered light, In which Coffee beat out his opponents, Messrs. Duhl and Burke, rather easily, as had been expect- ed for several days before the caucus was held. On the Republican side George Backer wants the nomination, but will have warm work in getting it, as sev- eral other candidates, including Bert Fitch, will, it is expected, soon enter the field. * » Up in the seventh some lively times are expected. It was supposed all along that Alderman Jesse L. Cooley would be re- nominated, but he pulled out at the last m i n u t e a n d left the field clear. Thomas Milan, the ward leader," then brought forward Bert Yengcr as a candidate, which was- the signal for Milan's many opponents i n w a r d to. bestir themselves against him. Previous to the springing of Yenger as a candidate Bryan Moylan and William Wynne had entered; the 'field. Both are popular with the rail- road vote, which is a strong factor -fn seventh ward politics. Milan argued Ufat they would split up so that Yenger, with the regular ward vote, and .what railroad votes could be controlled, would be nominaled. Moylan and Wynne, how- ever, pooled their issues, and beat out Yenger with ease. Now the question is: What will the 'machine" do? Will it run an independent candidate or com- bine with the Republicans? Those who understand the situation say that if the Republicans nominate John M. Diven or Lawrence Turner they can win, as the Democratic managers are not likely to lose much sweat supporting Wynne. * « Joseph P. Eustace is making a hot canvass for city judge, but the odds still seem to continue in favor of Mr. Den- ton. Denton has the support of the or- ganization and seems to rely on that to pull him through, as he is doitig little active work in his own behalf. Should Mr. Eustace be nominated, it is sur- mised that the Democratic ward can- didates would have a hard time of it, so far as being supplied with money is concerned. Every dollar used in their behalf would help Mr. Eustace and this the "machine" is not likely to do, as Mr. Eustace has never trained with it to any serious extent. A bitter fight will be waged in each of the election dis- tricts of the city... and a red hot city convention may be expected. "THE GONDOLIERS." N o w I n R e h e a r s a l by Trinity's Famous Choir.

Attractive .Decorations at the Store of "Sheehan, Dean & Co. A pretty window decoration was shown in the ea-st window of Sheehan, Dean & Co.'s new s t o r e o n W e s t Water street last evening. It was the work of Window Dresser Smith, and reflects great credit on that artist. The central decoration represented an old grist mill in full oper- ation,, with water wheel, elevators, hopper, grindstone, etc., made of napkins and doylies. Upon the roof in srnilax were the letters Sheehan, Dean & Co. At"the bottom oflfhe wheel was a mirror show- ing double effects of centrifugal motion. T h e w i n d o w s were barred with twisted doylies, and overhead was an elaborate n u m b e r o f festoon's worked out from a large center. About the mill were pat- terns of linen in napkins, tablecloth*, etc., representing the: spring opening of linens. Colored electric lights enhanced the brilliancy and beauty of the window and were viewed by thousands of promc- naders last evening.

Many Inquiries b y . t h e l a t e operatives of the late Elmlra Woolen mill as to the prospect of reiiewal of ojUrutlons there- in, caused a Telegram reporter to inter- view Messrs. Youmans & Moss yesterday, touching the prospects of a resumption of work by that old industry in the near- future. Those gentlemen say as follows: W h e n t h e d a m w a s t o r n <>ut b y t h e state under the direction of the superintendent of public works, some thhty ton* of wool was . in process ,o£ picking and scouring, with a view of commenclrg the manufac- turing of new goods for the fall trade. Much new machinery In the way of looms, etc.,'hud been placed in .ha mill, during the short period it had been standing idle, and everything was in condition for the manufacture, when thedfcm was destroy- ed. Many people might infer that the woolen mill could be run/without the dam, but manufacturers, and those familiar with that branch of busiress, readily un- derstand that large quantities ' of water, and of clean and gpod water, was neces- sary for scouring purposes, etc., even though not used for the main power in the mill. Being deprived of the reserved .water in the pond, It was impossible to run the mill with the dam on:. Consequently, within an hour after the state's employes 'or contractors tore out' one end of the dam, the- mill stopped, and it has not moved a wheel since. F r a n c i s H a t h a w a y , of New Bedford, the owner and operator-of the mill, protested through us, against the destruction of the dam, but was not able to stay the hands of the state's olllcers, and stroyed. M r .

Right along with half the floor space given up to workmen* who will be en- gaged in the work o\ remodeling their slore, is a conundrum 'that most mer- chants would find hard to solve, but Mc- Laren, Brown & Co. are evidently equal tbthis emergency, as!: t h e y have proved themselves in others heretofore. In their advertisement on another p a g e t h e y an- nounce they will "keep open house" and orfer to the public greater bargains than e|ver in order to reduce their stock; it is unnecessary t o s a y they will d o j u s t as they promise. The firm also announce c|n p a g e sixteen of this edition first ar- rival of new embroideries which will te offered at the same extraordinary V rice inducements. Yerily, the untiring enterprise shown by McLaren, Brown & do/, in catering, to the public, is praise- worthy and must command success. . O n the Republican side Messrs. Mel- ville, McCann and Alclridge are still very- much in the race, with the former mak- ing the hardest light of the three .and dally "gaining ground. Senator Fassett's attitude Is a matter of conjecture. He has more than once stated that he in- tends keeping his hands off the light, while Mr. McCann's friends are using his name freely In their canvass, and while many of Senator Fassett's lieutenants are Melville men, Mr. McCann Is looked upon as the Fassett' candidate.Unless the situation 'changes within the next week or two the Republican city con- vention will be about as lively as that. of the Democrats. * * In the different wards the situation is about the same as last Sunday and there is nothing new to be chronicled.

' * * * The fight over the delegates for the city judgeship in the seventh and third wards, among the Republicans, is very interestlng. Public sentiment through- out, however, is ip favor of John C: Mel- ville. He seems to have with him es- pecially the railroad men and those em- ployed in the manufacturing industries They consider that of all the candidates mentioned, he has" been the most l o y a l a n d d o n e h a r d e r w o r k a n d service f o r t h e p a r t y t h a n a n y o f t h e rest. * . * B y w h a t c a n b e l e a r n e d , i t i s h a r d to say who will be the nominees for alder- men for both parties are waiting for the selection of a city judge, which will probably make a vast difference in things. The Democrats are in a big jangle and though: Mr. Wynne-was nom- inated Friday evening, It is promised that there will he another Democratic caucus, when Bertram Yenger will be put in nomination. There are lively times ahead. Mr. Barnum, of the Empire laundry, said last evening that no chattel mort- gage was filed, against h i m i n favor of the Consolidated laundry, but.that a bill of sale had been given to him by the combine .in consideration of stock, and an agreement o n h i s p a r t to. retire for four months from the business. Mr. Barnum said that A. L. Barnum men- tioned i n t h e p a p e r s w a s hisr little boy. He said that when he went into the con- solidation, that he lost some of his twelve-year customers, and it had been a losing venture for him. First Terry- drew out, then Bob Berry, and now he was out, and glad to be out. He said that Berry sold out $2,000 worth of stock and his brother James, of Huston's, held $3,200, a n d t h e c o m b i n e w a s n o w operated by Bessey & H a l s t e a d and Berry.

The case has ( been on three calendars in Albany county, and on account of the numerous cases, and oui inability to induce the attorney general to makedt a preferred « unable to reach it for,triad On January 21, Mathaw owner of the mill, died; formed that the woolen descended by his will to His children. This occurring during the pendency of the term of court on which this ease was on the calendar, necessitates f Jrther postpone- ment, for the-reason, that the representa- tive must be substituted as plaintiff In the case. The next term of court at which this; case can be tried, we understand is in May. In the meantime, as it appears to us, nothing wilr be done towards resuming the operation of the mill, and what, dis- position the heirs will make of the prop- erty, we Hiave no knowledge or Informa- tion. We can safely say that we do not believe any attempt will be made to re- sume operations until alter the litigation is determined. It is barely possible that the woolen mill property will come Into the' market 'for sale. I t was-, a g r e a t misfortune, in o u r judg- ment, that it was deemed wise and neces- sary upon thei>art of the state, to destroy this dam, which had been in existence so •long that its history is ancient. I t i s un- derstood that the woolen mill was Insti- tuted by Daniel Pratt, father of the pres- ent Daniel Pratt, and Hansom Pratt, the father of Charles R. Pratt. Before they built the woolen mill, a, d a m had been built In Newtown creek for mill purposes, and when they built tneir. woolen mill, Harwood M. Badger sold them a part of his farm, within the dam for the purposes of the woolen mill. Thjat was in 1844. The Pratts operated the, mill jfor a good many years as individua run by a eorpofation.kno Woolen Manufacturing subsequently transferred poration, known as the mills. This was during, and just after the war. It was remembered,, that during the war, the mills were operated very profita- bly, making cloths for army uniforms; and s, and then it was wn as the Elmira "company, which it to another eor- Clinton Woolen I T I S A G O O D THING.

'•• ••••» '-^ In t h e m o n t h of May, 1888, certain of the leading citizen* of this city conceived the idea of organising a locai loan asso- ciation, which plan wa« carried Into ef- fect-by the incorporation of the Elmira Co-operative SayingK ancT Lo-an aHBOCla- tion. The first m e e t i n g o f t h e HUbscrib- ers wan held In the common council chambers and its officers elected and by- laws adopted. Without a dollar of as- sets, but with the purpose of encouraging thrift, and to foster a spirit of frugality and in a small way t o a d d t o t h e sub- stantial growth! of the city, with no thought,, of personal profits or larger gains, its promoters opened the books for subscription. The first meeting for the receipt of dues was held June 11, 1888, a n d 1,000 s h a r e s w e r e m)<l> The first year Its dotal dash receipts were $14,000. The first year's 1 operations had been ex- perimental, nothing more, but so satis- factory a beginning that the president, In his annual address, was led to remark: "We are bahdid together for the pur- pose of mutual savings and mutual gain, and in. noj sense are we ah associa- tion comprised^ of two antagonistic classes, one of which is exacting the last penny of 'profit from its operations, while the other, or borrowing class, is paying usurious rates for rnono^ to pro- vide homes for their families.'' The as- sociation entered upon its second year of experiment,! passed the experimental .stage, and has now brought t o a close its seventh year of successful, though conservative, operations/The policy out- lined by the. president in his first an- nual address; has been It? keynote through all the intervening years,—fair dealing for- all, injustice to none,—-be- lieving that moderate profits with sta- bility and absolute security more desir- a b l e t h a n lavish promises, "coupled with uncertainty, its policy has been to dis- courage high premiums. The year 1895 opens auspiciously, with a membership of, 430, 150 of w h o m arc females, Its as- sets 5177,000. fits annual receipts have increased from 514,000 to $92,000, its earn- ings fiom $470 the first year to $10,000 for IfilM. AVhen it is recalled that such has been done within the borders of our city, that every dollar of its accumulations have been invested in Elmira, that if has been the procuring ..cause of the erection of many homes,^ that it seeks no membership beyond the limits of the city, although all are welcome, that it has n o a g e n t s or solicitors, no extraor- dinary inducements to investors, that it has far exceeded the wildest hopes of its projectors, that it has sustained no losses, that it has not had occasion to foreclose any of its mortgages, is abundant proof of the fidelity and un- selfish devotion of its directors, who have served all these years without compensation. The opportunities and ad- vantages it offers to borrowers, those intending or desiring to own a home, are unsurpassed. The man or woman who has saved enough t o b u y a lot whereon to build a home will find a true friend and helper in the Elmira Co-operative Savings and Loan association. The pay- ments are arranged to suit the con- venience of the borrower. Any informa- tion or explanation desired by those .in- tending to build the coming spring and desiring to make a loan will be cheer- fully furnished by the secretary, room 307, Robinson building.
