Pucketo, No. 878 Augustine street, Alderman William S. Beard, of the Eighth ward, announced yesterday that he would not be a candidate for renomination this fall and this action makes it certain that there will be no strife at the Republican primary. Some time ago it was rumored that Supervisor John J. Appel was being urged by his friends to become a candidate for alderman and he announced that he would enter the primary for the nomination.

A caucus battle would not be conducive to harmony so the members of the ward committee at a recent meting adopted the folowing resolution. Whereas, oTher possible contest in this ward between William S. Beard and John J. Appel for the nomination for alderman will make for dissension in the party ranks, which might lead to bad results on election day, and, Whereas, This committee desires to present a ticket to which all Republicans can give united support, therefore be 18 Resolved, That In the Interest of harmony we request William S. Beard to withdraw a candidate for alderman, thus presenting but one candidate at the coming primary election and be it further Resolved, That we cordially approve of Beard's of the him duties, pertaining to his office and pledge our hearty support to advance his future interests.

Alderman Beard would not discuss the matter yesterday further "I have withdrawn from the aldermanic contest in the interests of party harmony, which I believe sould be placed before personal interests." In the Sixteenth ward Alderman John McParlin will be a candidate for renomination and 80 will Supervisor Adolph G. Schreck. Two years ago Alderman McFarlin received a plurality of 360 and Supervisor Schreck received a plurality of 499. It is reported that Alderman Leonard J. Somers, of the ward, will decline to accept renomination for alderman and that it is likely that Supervisor Henry W.

Morse will be given the nomination. In the First ward it is said that Alderman Jay W. Cook will decline to run again. There are many candidates mentioned succeed him, among them being Supervisor Patrick Cauley and William Stallknight. In the Second ward there will be no change in the ticket.

Two years ago Alderman Doud carried the St Second ward with a plurality of 415 and Supervisor Ward carried it by 454. Supervisor George A. Hicks, of Pittsford, declares, that he is not a candidate for the Republican nomination for As-1 sembly from the First District, but will be a candidate for renomination for 811- pervisor. This leaves the field open to Thomas J. Bridges, of Perinton, who is an avowed candidate.

In Brighton there is considerable friendly rivalry for the Republican nomination for supervisor. A. Emerson Babcock says he is not seeking renomination and the names of B. H. Howard, Isaac Hartfelt and Hiram Shaw have been mentioned as possible candidates.
