Mr. \V. ,1. Hughes Elected Alderman of 111*
ttventh Ward b» a Majority ol 8« Vote*
— A Very Small Vole Polled.
The election yesterday held throughout the
city to select an alderman to represent the
Seventh ward in the city council vice Alder-
nan E. A. Emilh, resigned, was a very quiet
or.e, as demonstrated by the very small vote
polled, tfco total vote polled in
the city being 2032, as against
0211 ut the last city election,
on A pi 11 0. The only feature giving any par-
ticular interest to the contest was the fact
that Mr. Barry was generally considered as
the Knights or Labor candidate, while Sir.
Hughes was supported by the iutoreBt which
elected tho citizens ticket at the last municlpil
election, and Mr. HugheB's victory is regarded
at* another victory for the citizens oamoilttee.
The contest was a close one, with the colored
vote goirg pretty much as it did at tha last
city election for the candidate of the citizens
commlttte.

The above figures are from the official returns,
except in the case of the Twelfth ward, and
tfcongb the returns from this ward were not
made last nigbt, the figures are obtained from
one of the managers of the election, and may
be if garded as absolutely correct. As shown
by the above vote, Mr. Wm. H. Sharp, though
t l>e> fir at candidate announced, was scircely
considered in the field, as he received but four
votes In the entire city. There were two
scntterirg votes polled—one for Thomas
Eggert and the other for Charles Woolam.
The council will meet on Saturday for the
purpose of canvassing the returns and declar-
Irg the result cf the election, and the new ai-
de j man will then be ready to qualify at ths
regular meeting of the board on the following
Monday.
