New York, Nov. 10.-It is ascer-
tained from \ perfectly reliable source
that the Tammany commissioners are
at work obtaining what are called legal
proofs, of alleged illegal voting in no
less than twenty-five assembly districts.
These commissioners will submit their
report to the board Of state canvassers
which meets at Albany on the 18th.
There Is but one democrat on the board,
Horatio Seymour, jr., and while a ma
jority will undoubtedly declare the Gar
field electors duly chosen, Seymour, on
the faith Of Tammany afiidavits, sup
ported by the additional evidences Of
illegal voting, which it is said will be
furnished by the democratic state COM
mittee, will declare the Hancock elect
ors duly chosen. This, 1t is expected.
will at once bring the issue before con-
gress and, following the Louisiana pre-
cedent, the expectation is that that body
will not hesitate to 60 behind the re-
turns and see just what the alleged
frauds amount to in fact. In the inte-
rim public interest in the controversy is
to be kept alive by mass meetings at
Irving hall and Cooper institute.
A prominent member ri the demo-
cratic national committee Is desiIous Of
having 1t understood that that body is
not taking any active part In the pend
ing investigation.
Roundout, N. Y, Nov. 10.-The
chairman OF the Ulster county demo-
cratic committee has served upon the
board Of canvassers Of Ulster county n
protest against counting the republican
electoral ballots, claiming that said bal
lots do not conform TO the requirements
Of the statue, in that they contain both
caption and indosement, and that the
names Of several OF the candidates are
not printed ''in plain type with letters
Of uniform size' Ulster county here
tofore was largely democratic, but on
the I'd inst. gave Garfield 100 majority.
Hudson, N. Y, Nov 10.-The chair
man and secretary of the democratic
committee have served upon the board
Of canvassers Of Columbia county, pro-
tests against counting the republican
electoral, congressional, assembly and
county tickets, on the ground that such
ballots were illegally indorsed. The
protests were ordered placed on die,
and the board adjourned till Thursday
to take legal advice on the question.
The board comprises twelve republicans
and ten democrats.

Laying the niamc ON jay Gould.

Chicago, Nov. 10.-J. w. Midgeley,
commissioner of the southwest pool
gives for publication the official records
of the meetings, which clearly show
that Jay Gould and the Wabash are to
blame for the recent outbreak among
the railroads, and that Gould is really
the aggressor, while seeking to throw
upon Mr.. Blackstone, Of the Alton road /,
the odium Of precipitating the war by
violating the agreement to which he be-
came a party. Blackstone says he never
signed the agreement as worded, and
his testimony is corroborated by Mid
geley, who was secretary Of the presi-
dents meeting, and by others who were
present.

Zeifert had been forbidden the house,
and yesterday he returned and drew n

Consolidation OF the Union and Cen.
tral Pacific L. n

New York, Nov. 10.-There was n
special meeting Of the Central Pacific
and Union Pacific directors and the
largest stockholders here last night ut
the residence Of President Huntington,
Of the Central Pacific road, for the pur-
pose Of arranging consolidation and
amalgamation Of the two roads and
branches. Jay Gould was present. and
1t was rumored late last night that u
basis had been arranged and n consoli-
dation scheme was decided upon, the
details Of which were TO be submitted
TO the stockholders. 1t Is thought that
the shipment Of over 10000 shares OF
the Central Pacific stock to London
last week shows the managers expect
to float the stock In Europe.

New York, Nov. l0.-The following
letter has been addressed 10 the Albany
Argus BY Edgar X. Apgar, member Of
both the democratic state committee
and executive committee OF that body:
Albany, Nov. 9.-As there appears
10 be some misunderstanding on the
subject. 1t Is proper TO state that there
has been no meeting held since the
day Of the election, either Of the
democratic state committee or the
executive committee OF that body, nor
have notices been sent to a member
Of either committee for any such meet
ing In the future. Any action taken
BY members OF the committee, whether
officers or otherwise. Is individual ac-
tion, which the committee has not au-
thorized, and for which 1t cannot be
responsible in 90 grave n matter as call
ing into question the vote Of New
York In the electoral college. Too
great caution cannot bo exercised. The
only way In which any contest could
be made, with even 4 shadow OF prob
able success, would be by the rejection
Of the republican electoral ticket, on
which the word ''electors" has been
twice printed. This, I believe cannot,
and should not be done. To change
the result In any other way more than
10000, separate cases OF fraudulent or
corrupt voting would have to be proved.
an evident impossihility. It certainly
cannot be expected that the present
state board of canvassers will declare
otherwise than is shown by the face Of
the returns, and my view Of the demo-
cratic doctrine leads me to hold that
congress cannot 60 behind the seal of
the state TO investigate frauds at the
polls In the choice Of presidential elec-
tors. This being so, It seems to me all
talk assuming to possess oficial charac-
ter, about having the electoral vote of
this state cast for Hancock, and Is cal
culated to bring ridicule and reproach
upen the democratlc party, and wsuld
tend, II importance were given TO it. TO
produce still worse effect. Those who
would justify even slight departure
from the established laws and forms,
to count In Gen. Hancock In spirit Of
revenge for the frauds of '76, would,
in my Judgment, 60 far to make bad
precedent Of that year rule for the fu-
ture, and would take long step toward
mexicanizing our government.
Holding firmly to these views, I am
compelled 10 their public utterance as
q member Of the democratic committee
and Of the executive committee, in or
der that / may not be considered to
have, by silence, acquiesced In what
purports to be, but Is not, the author
izsd action Of either committee.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) EDGAR X. Agar.

Washington, Noy. l0.-while Ma
hene Is independent, he leans strongly
toward republicans, and is bitter, almost
to yindietiveness, against the demo-
erats, on account Of the shabby treat
ment be received from Barnum's COM
mittee. He says he may or may not
go into the republican caucus, but will
not go into the democratic, and will be
avenged.
A letter from Hancock, received here
by an army officer, says: Garfield il

rated without any fuss.

The FeeIiax 10 w..hIas,s.,

Washington. Nov. 10.-The anxiety
expressed in many quarters yesterday
concerning the threatened attempt TO
defeat Garfield's election by throwing
out the vote Of New York, has been ef-
fectually disposed Of to-day by the cold
water thrown upon II by the letter Of
E. X. Apgar, from tho state democratic
committee, disclaiming any support to
any such proposition, and by the appa-
rently well authenticated declaration Of
Gen. Hancock, that he Is totally OF
posed TO the agitation, and believes that
Garfield was fairly elected.
II Is now believed that the fomenters
Of the agitation will receive ne encour-
agement from the influential leaders OF
the party. The movement TO invalidate
the vete Of the state OF New York for
Garfield and Arthur will not amount TO
anything more than feeble minority
protest, IL, indeed, 1t does not soon be-
come simply ridiculous.
Gen. Malone, senator-elect from
Virginia, arrived In Washington last
night, and was to-day interviewed,
with very small results. In reply to
the question, what will be his future
course In politics, he said: Nobody
but myself knows. There is my most
intimate friend tpointing to Collector
Brady, Of Petersburgl, he does not even
know my position. II you will find
exactly how stand, and let me know,
l will give you ten thousand dollars"
Notwithstanding his facetiously eva
sive answer, there have been several
indications to-day that he contemplates
some sort OF an alliance with the re-
publicans. Collector Brady, who Is his
most intimate friend, and who accom-
panies him here from Virginia, is a
strong republican. Gen. Malone, since
his arrival last night, has been visited
by republicans, and not by democrats.
He was in conference this morning
with George G. Gorham, and immedi-
ately after the unsatisfactory interview
with the reporter, went to his rooms
with Collector Brady and Mr.. A. NJ.
Clapp, to carry out a meeting which had
been prearranged by Collector Brady.
Gorham said to-day, after a talk with
him, that in his opinion Gen. Malone
would act with the republicans rather
than with the democrats.
Thera is considerable inquiry in po-
iitical circles just now touching the
health OF Senator Grover, OF Oregon.
Should he be too unwell to attend the
session OF the senate, the republicans,
with Mahone's vote. would have ma
jority without the vote of the vice-pres-
ident. Should he die, the Oregon leg
islature, being republican, will send
republican successor, and in such an
event the republicans would have the
senate, regardless Of how Malone might
act. Some time ago Senator Gro yer
was at Wilmington, Delaware, very III,
and there were doubts then whether he
would ever sufficiently recover to take
his seat in the senate. He was subse-
quently reported to be improving, but
has not recently been seen.

We have had lively times lately. Poll.
