some opposition from the steam navigation compa-
MES, and the subject has boon brought into CO urt
through a suit commenced yesterday by the Schuyler
Steam Towboat Company. The case was brought
before Judge Blatchford yesterday In the United
States Circuit Court on motion for perm anent in
junction restraining the further progress OF the
work. The plaintiffs allege that between
New Baltimore and Barren Island about thirteen
miles south of Albany there Is channel the east

ton, and that the defendant has been engaged tor
time past. and Is at present engaged, In dredg
ing channel the west side Of the river, and that
the dredgings have been deposited in the eastern
channel. thus impeding navigation. They also
alege that the defendant proposes to construct a
dyke across the eastern channel to force tho water
20 the western shore, course which they say would
be entirely unlawful, and would probably serve to
atop all navigation at that point. Upon the CON-
plant and afhdavlts attached Judge Batchford

THE OFFICIAL CANVASS.

The final meeting of tho Board Of County Can
vassers will, it is thought be held this afternoon.
when the official vote will then be declared if the
County Clerk is ready with the tabulated figures.
The Board held few minutes session yesterday for
the purpose of receiving the report Of the Commit
tee on Corrected Returns. The corrections are
trivial and do not in any way affect the results
already announced. The committee states that in
of sample ballots not attached to the returns
about two thousand inspectors were summoned to
the City Hall and examined. The law was quoted on
these points. when they stated that they had COM
piled with the law understood by them. In such
cases the returns could not be corrected, as the
statutes did permit inspectors retain ballots
Guided
The report of the committee also deals with the
controversy between Robert II. Strahan, republican,
aud John W. Browning, democrat. in the Eighth
Senatorial district. An opinion was received from
the Corporation Counsel IN which it was stated that
the duties of the Board merely ministerial
and they could not ignore the returns as sent in.
The committee consequently recommends that the
figures presented to them be counted.
An objection to the reception of this report was
made by Supervisor Sauer the ground that 1t had
not yet been signed by Supervisor Kiernan, a men,
Der of the committee.
Supervisor Perley remarked that Mr.. Herman had
seen the report and concurred in it's conclusions.
After some further wrangliug the matter laid
over until to-day. The Board will reassemble at two
O'Clock this afternoon.
