MAKING WITNESSES TOE THE MARX.

Newark can turn out some witnesses who have
extraordinary notions of what an oath implies,
just the same as New York and other highly moral
Cities Yesterday in the Newark Court of Sessions,
a witness named william Cunningham gave evil
dence in case of extraordinary character that
the Court deemed his story reckless and extrava-
ordered, and he was held to bail to appear in case
the Grand Jury should indict him on charge OF
perjury. This action of the Court will have
quickening effect on the truth-oving witnesses OF
Newark.
Apropos OF witnesses, it should be recorded that
public notOriety through his position the keeper
of eX-Alderman Gains conscience, and who mystic
riousy left Newark about year ago to avoid as Is
alleged charge Of Eampering with the jury IN the
celebrated coal consumers litigation, for which
he had been indicted, has returned to his native
heath ana given bonds to answer the charge
against him. His trial is set for to-day; but as the
witnesses are probably entirely beyond reach Of the
Court now, it Is likely that Paddy will get oil scot
free. =.

Drawing Near the ClOse-Thc Race
Among tho Aldermen.
Tie Board of Supervisors continued their labors
as county canvassers yesterday, and read through
the returns from the Seventeenth, Eighteenth and
Twentieth Assembly districts. The usual number
of errors was discovered. While canvassing the
returns OF the Seventeenth Assembly district 1t
was found that the returns for Assistant Aldermen
and also returns for "Comptroller' In the Eleventh
Election district were missing.
Supervisor PLUNKITT said that votes were cast
for a Mr.. Gilen in that district for Comptroller,
and it was only proper that they should be counted.
He therefore moved that the inspectors be sent
for. The motion was carried
In the Second Election district OF the Eighteenth
Assembly district the Aldermanic vote was incor-
rectly reported. In the Seventh Election district
there were no returns for Alderman in the County
Clerks statement. In the Eleventh there were
mistakes IN the Aldermanic VOTE In the Twentieth
Cooper was recorded as receiving 100 votes in
figures for Alderman and 12S In writing. In the
Twelfth there were no returns whatever for As
sistant Alderman. In all these cases the election
Cochrane and Alderman Joyce busted themselves ut

vislng the corrections as the delinquent election
were present, and busy as usual, while the list of
distinguished loungers among the outsiders was
augmented by the presence OF Sheridan Shook and
There remains only the Twenty.frst Assembly
The The canvass win then be complete, except that
the corrections are yet to be made, and some con-
cern exists over an alleged inaccurate footing up
OF the totals by the expert calculator. Some mem
bers have discovered that the addition Is wrong,
and ann nounce that they will not sign the of1cal
canvass until the addition is corrected II will be
probably Saturday night before the corrections are
completed, and Monday morning before the oflcal
totals are given to the press. There have been al
ready 500 election oficers sent for for the purpose
Of correcting returns, and others are ordered
