Baltimore Police Cemmissiouer Diff
hcnlty Settled.
NEW YORK, Nov. GA special dis
patch from Baltimore says the Police Com
missioner difficulty has been arranged by
General Grant. The old Commissioners
are to appoint one Democratic Judge in
each precinct. to see that the ballot-boxes
are provided for the reception Of rejected
votes Of registered voters. The lower
Courts are to finally decide on the legality
Of these rejected votes. The votes for
State officers are to be certified &C the
State Legislature, and the votes for mem
bsrs OF Congress will b. returned to Con-
grsss. The feeling il now abating.
Gen. Grants visit to this city is under
stood to have been for purposes in his ca
pacity of private citizen solicitous Of pre-
serving the peace and to make to the
Police Commissioners Of Baltimore. at
the instance OF Gov. Swan, the following
propositions: LIST. That each set Of Com
m~is,ioners cause separate polls to be open
ed in the several election districts and re-
ceive such votes as may be decided legal
by their judges Of election, and have the
vote classified and sent to the State Legis-
lature and to Congress. The Police Com
m~issioners declined to entertain this, as it
would be contrary to the election law Of
the State, and by accepting it they would
be guilty of worse malfeasance than any
that had been charged against them 4; that
it was their purpose to conduct the cleo
ton in accordance with the laws and Con-
s.itution Of the State, and it was not in
their power to make IN agreement con-
ficting with the law.
The next proposition was that the old
Commissioners appoint n conservative
judge Of the three to DO appointed at each
poll, these three to receive votes Of those
who are found to be upon tho several reg.
listers that two sets Of ballots be used, in
one Of which are to be deposited the votes
accepted, and in the other the votes re-
jec,ed /; the first part Of the proposition 10
simply in accordance with a pledge made
by Mr.. Alexander before Gov. Swan,
while charges against the Commissioners
were being investigated, and was made
then as a concession BY the party in power
to preserve peace. The Commissioners
have already announced in the morning
papers that they would appoint one judge
and one clerk in each precinct from the
conservative party. There was no objec-
ton to the remainder of it, being covered
| by registry law.
