PHILADELPHIA, OCt. ISlU.
], JAMES THORNTON, of the county of Philadelphia,
have seen in the New York Evening Post a statement
Of person who signs himself J d. Stevenson, but
who, when in Philadelphia, called himself Jarvis, in
which are many assertions, false in part so far as am
concerned This Stevenson, or Jarvis, called upon
me Monday, Oct ~ in the Sheriff's Office Of this city
and asked me to procure persons for him for election
about to come on in New York such as, in 1888
went on with James B. Glenworth, solely TO detect
fraudulent votes, which it believed were sent of
from Philadelphia to vote the loco oco ticket in New
f0rk stated TO Stevenson alias Jarvis, that could
procure him such persons hut Stevenson alias Jarvis,
never expressed wish nsnuated that such persons
should vote in New York or wanted for that
purpose. furnished Stevenson with list of about
thirty persons, but with no idea my part, wish
upon his, expressed that of them should vote,
or do than detect names which Stevenson alias
Jarvis said the Administration party were putting on
the New York registry list
also further state that in 1888, went on to New
York with sixteen persons well acquainted with the

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. "a, lSi0
!, ROBERT MILLER, ofthe city of Philadelphia now
captain of the watch in the city do hereby state
and solemny declare that have never been concerned
IN any way or manner, or at any time, in sending
to New York fraudulent votes spurious voters In
1888 was concerned in procuring persons in this city
and county to 90 on to New York to detect voters
whom had the strongest to believe intended to
vote the Administration ticket in New York; and the
persons whom ] procured to 90 were mechanics
well acquainted with the city whose expenses were
paid, and only their expenses and the value of their
time, as they were dependent upon their earnings
for livelihood and could not afford to 90 New York
without such remuneration. To my certain know
ledge was never intended they should in New
York. and TO the best Of my information they did not
vote.
also further state that Oct l2) man calling him
sell JARVIS, when with Inc, met me in the Mayor s
office whose name have since understood to be Ste
venson, when this jarvis alias Stevenson taking me
out and asking to be in private pretended to be whig
and wished to know if could do for him what was
done for Glentworth in 1888, viz procure for him per-
sons well acquainted with Philadelphia, who could
detect the fraudulent voters that the Administration
party in New York were putting the Registry list
there from all parts of the country and particularly
from New Jersey and the city and county of Phadel-
phia. told him could give him men who could de
tect any loco !oco voter from Philadelphia that should
appear in New York. and at our second meeting fur
nlshed HIM with list of fory-hree and not exceed
Ing forty-five men, well acquainted with the voters of
the city and county Of Philadelphia, who could not
have been induced by any means, when citizens of
this State to vote in any other State did ever
dream of furnishing list for such Illegal purpose
did Stevenson alias Jarvis, request of me list for
any such purpose So far any thing in Stevcnson's
Jarviss deposition conflicts with what have stated
pronounce it false and utterly untrue.
also solemnly declare that never saw Mr. Swift
at any time in my life at Mr. Rstons house as Ste
yenson, alias Jarvis, states. never mentioned Mr.
Swifts name to Jarvis, alias Stevenson ! never was
in New York during any election, and never stated to
Jarvis, alias Stevenson, that was, nor that my men
voted there; but thirty five or forty men went on
from Philadelphia TO New York through Gleniworth's
agency, and not Of them was intended to be
voter.
