RECORD CAUCUS. Democrats Spent Monday Night Vot- ing to Fill Their Ticket. Neither hot weather nor humidity nor even an earthquake, nor hardly a German invasion, if they had such things in Windham, would ever keep the democrats of Willimantic away from anything political. And so the town caucus Monday night, offering— and fulfilling—the prospect of several fights for office had out the biggest crowd in years. They lined the streets for an hour before the caucus and the air was heavy with political dope, the board of aldermen adjourned, on the motion of a republican candidate for selectman, and on the whole, tnere wasn't much doing in the city else- where while the democrats were in session. There were close to 500 men in the town hall, not so very far from haif the voting strength of the party in_the town. James F. Twomey, chairman of the democratic town committee, called for order at 8.15 and he was continued as chairman of the caucus on motion of Francis Ashton, Frank P. Fenton was chosen as clerk and he read the call for the.caucus. As balloting was clearly in sight, Chairman Twomey brought up the matter of selecting tellers and on motion of Mayor Dunn the rival candidates for office stepped up front and each gave in the name of a teller. The office seekers who went up front were John Curran and P. D, Donahue, candidates for registrar, and Pierre J. Laramee, John M. Bransfield, Eugene E. Curran and Maurice Welch, rivals for the position of tax collector, and the men they picked out to pass and collect and count the ballots *were Gearge A. Grady, Arthur Kelly, John S. Sullivan, John R. McCarthy, Arthur Racicot, George Mahew, M. E. Lincoln and L. J. Flynn. Then the caucus got down to work. The first few offices went off smooth- ly. Dr. George A.

Killourey for constable, and the other three places were filled by the names of Mitchel Laramee, John Ryan and Leonard C. Burr. Dr. W. K. Faatz and P. J.

Chiet Richmound was summoned and he brought Popple in on the charge of intoxication. Brief Mention. G. R. Law of Boston spen! in this city, Sieacn Mrs. H. N.
