Alleged Election Frauds in the City.

Either the men who acted as inspectors of cleo
tion in many Of the districts, were grossly incom-
petent, or else they have been guilty Of FRAUD for
it Is evident that the work that could readily be
accomplished by an ordinary clerk in twelve hours
does not require the services of three men over
eight times that length Of time, without they had
some improper purpose TO serve, or else they were
too thick headed and ignorant for the proper full
flment of the uties assigned them. The former
supposition, however, is the most natural, and a
number Of facts have already been elected to
strengthen and endorse II.
For instance, il can be proved that In one cleo
ton district, where the announcement Of the num-
Der Of ballots cast was made in accordancetvth
the law, gentleman made memorandum Of the
votes, and on examining the certified returns of
the inspectors, he discovered Discrepancy of one
hundred votes against the American candidates.
In another district, the Inspectors excluded
every person from the room and locked the door,
while they counted the ballots, proceeding
| contrary to law, and one that vitAtes the entire
vote III the district
In another, It is declared that the inspectors
voted twice. and furnished voters with tickets from
their own pockets. In another, Lorenzo B. Shep-
ards vote increased two nights after the election,

didates on the same ticket were sufficiently lucky
to have the error rectifed to their advantage

County Clerk In several districts The ballot.boxes
