they find that the returns in the hands OF the County
Clerk are incorrect .
supervisor HowARD-Because they are blanks is
no reason Why they should not be corrected as ven
sreat blunder.
Suueryisor CHAUxcEY-I suppose, my motion that
The returns be received as they are was IN order
The PREsIDEsT-I suppose it would be IN order
the County Clerk. The Board might direct the
Clerk to put the corrections the back OF the paper
a. Il IL sef evident omission.
Supervisor HOWARD am willing to have them
corrected; but want to let il be known that people
in the Fifteenth Ward make blunders AZ well ~ the
people IN the Sixth Ward see there has been
statement in ore Of the Wing papers that there we're
blunoers in the returns from the Sixth ward Now,
Ibope the reporters will also state that ia the aris
tocrstic Fifteenth Ward there are clerks who ara
very careless or else they CO Dot know their duty,
and rot leave the public TO suppose that th7 napec-
ters of the Sixth Ward are the only delnqgenfs.
The PREsIDEsT-Does the Supervisor OF the Sixth
Ward move that the figures b. inserted
Superyisor HowARD-No, Sir; but shall not op-
poseit.
TIE PREsIDEST-The questions, shall the "a blank
Supervisor wnLIAnsos-It does not seem 10 me
that the the way 10 get through with THIS dfhcaty
do not think have the right to muulae or correct
these returns in any way. II we SIMPLY say that We
regard the returns in the bands OF the supervisor rs
correct that will reach the same end.
The PRrsrDEST--Does the Supervisor Of the Second
Ward move that ~ an amendment
Supervisor WILLIAMsoS-l do, Sir.
Sup.ryisor CHAUNCEY-I accept II.
The PREsIDEST-Tbe motion being Withdrawn, the
question is on the motion Of the Supervisor OF the
Second Ward, that the returns in the h4nds OF the
Supervisor Of the Fifteenth Ward be regarded as
correct.
The motion was agreed to, Supervisor Howard only
voting IN the negative
The next discrepancy appeared in the return for
Governor from the Second District of the Fifteenth
Ward. The returns read by the Supervisor recorded
l5l for Myron ii. Clark, while that in the hands OF
the County Clerk contained l44 votes for the same
candidate. The footing or total vote for Governor IN
bat District wac recorded in both returns US 555 and
the additional ten votes required in the County
Clerks return 10 make the footing correct.
The PRESIDENT having explained this, said II there
be no objections the will on, the report vi
the Supervisor being received "a the correct one'
There being objection, 1874 votes were recorded
for MyroD VI. Clark, being ten more than have here
tsfore been published.
In The returns from the Fifth District Of the Fifteenth
Ward there a vote recorded for John &. Gsnu
Dor the Office of Commissioner Of Stress and Lamps
There was sko among the scattering votes one for
Myron H. Clark for the office OF State Prison 10
steeior and one ia the Sixth District for w. H. Sew
ard for Governor.
With the exceptions above noted the returns from
the Fifteenth Ward were canvassed and found to
agree.
On notion Of Supervisor CHAUSeEY, in oonse
quepce of the absence of the Supervisor OF tho Six
fetnth Ward (Cbristy at ten minutes past clock,
the Board adjourned until IL o'clock to-day.
