This (Monday) night there will be the regular meeting of the aldermen, Tuesday the board of trade will hold an open meeting, Wednesday is given over to the schebl committee, and Thursday and Friday nights are the dates set for the republican and dem- ocratic caucuses. In addition, there will- be minor ettractions during .the week. The democrafic caucus was origin- ally set for next Monday, but the time was changed on request, as it conflicted with the date of the annual Charity ball. There has been little public talk of the candidates for office at the com- ing city elections, and it is hard to tell in advance just how things will shape up. It is fairly gafe to_assume, however that Mayor Daniel P. Dunn will be'in the field for reelection at the hands of the democrats although he has not yet made any statement of his intentions. George F. Taylor is the probable candidate of the republican party. He also has declined to com- mit himself so far. Joseph A. Mar- tin has declared himself a candidate for the democratic nomination but it is cafe-to say that if Mayor Dunn wants the remomination he will get it. There has been little talk as re- gards_ the minor offices. Good Patronage at Carnival.
