they had lost their votes by their negli.
Rence spent the day In their wi amuse.
ment, evading q best they might the
meritsd r~sproaches Of their friends.
There was quite q noticeable difference
In the color and texture OF the paper
used. That Of the Citizens ticket was
o light pink, while that used BY the
worknemsn was OF Q somewhat deeper
shade and quite thin.
The Workingmsn drew up and pre-.
ssntsd TO the election officers In each
ward . protest against the Oitizsns' tick
cts being counted OF Tailed. quoting the
law on the subject, and claiming that a.
theirs was purchased from the Secretary
Of State II was Of the legal standard, and
that the other wa illegal.
There were several mixed or bogus
tickets brought ont during the day IN the
interests OF the rival candidates for Sen.

In regard to the squabble about the
color Of the tickets. Mayor Kallock de-
clarsd last night that II thors WA any.
thing in the Law the tickets Of the Citi-
zsns' Protective Union should not DO
counted. It was an unjust discrimina.
ton, 0 violation OF the elective system
and ought not to be allowed to stand.
When informed that the paper had been
certified to a. correct a. required BY law.
he said 1t made no difference and would
not hold II the law was good for any.

About II O'Clock Denis Ksarnsy was
taken with Q fsinting spell on Market
street, but succeeded in reaching the
nearest drug store. where he became
unconscious bsforsia restorative could
be administered. At one time II was
thought that he wal beyond recovery.
but hs revived and entered . buggy,
when he again tainted. He sitsrwArd
stated that be had psrtaken Of very It'll,
food for the last three or four days. and
In consequence had become very weak.
A morning paper Affects to believe ths,

THE RESULT.
At3r. N. the count stood Citizens'
ticket, 1892; workingmsn's. ll.uT
There are about 1000 yet uncountrd.
Byrns's vote 10 l6,0l7 and Frsud's
1879.
The very latest summary Of the returns
indicate that the majority for the Cit.
zsns' ticket will not vary fer from 1000.
CITIZENS REJOICING.
The Republican Headquarters. at the
Palace Hotel, were filled until midnight
with prominent members Of the party
and Others interested in the success OF
the Citizsns' ticket. Az the returns
came in showing an undoubted ma
jority for that ticket, their spirits sp.
pearsd to rise oorrespondingly, and
when two-thirds Of the total vote had
been counted, giving al that stage over
1000 majority, the sxprsssions Of salts
faction were unbounded and the cham.
payne flowed freely. The opinion gen.
orally expressed was that the result OF
the election would be greater confidence
In business circles and restoration Of
peace in the city.
TIE DIFFERENCE IN BALLOT PAPER.
It's not decided yet whether the Work
ingmsn will contest the election on 40
count Of the difference Of the ballot
paper, though the report 10 that they
will. The facts OF the case regarding
the paper have been ascertainsd, and
that IL that the W~orkingmen procured
their paper from the Secretary Of State,
while the Citizens Union obtained theirs
from . dealer in the city. There 10 no
evidence that tho variation in color was
the result OF intention. Az to the
charge OF surveillancs Of voters. rendered
possible by the difference In color Of the
ballots, the charitable hypothesis 10 that
1t was merely done to keep the u OF the
voting with the view Of anticipating the
result in. Q general way. Whether or
not any contest 10 to DO made, the gen
eral impression seems to be that nothing
will come Of 1t, a. mere informally will
not not b allowed to reverse the clearly
