The New YORK frauds Deits lavss-
sigStsd.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Sth.-The
Star this evening publishes high
ly interesting dispatch from its
New York correspondent which,
though seemingly somewhat sem
sationai, is known here to have
been written by person not ad-
dicted to sensation. He says:
While up to this time the very
suggestion of going behind the
New York returns aud declaring
this State for Hancock has been
classed as part of the machinery
for letting the Democrats down
easy, it has been discovered that
the Democrats are very serious
about the matter and are working
to that end with vigor unknown
during the canvass. After an In
dustrious search for Information
leading to the Democratic inten-
ton in this matter, your cores
pondeut with inside secrets, finds;
First-That the pressure to open
the contest for the vote of this
State comes from localities outside
Soutnern states aud mainly frtJhls
Kentucky and Richmond. M.
dispatches and letters and outside
Democratic newspapers have
worked with great effect upon the
Democratic Committees here
who had their local difficulties tO
settle aud who feared the effect of
the opposition the business men
here would give to any further
election talk.
Second-That the disputed ques-
ton Of the support of the solid
Southern Democracy is settled in
this matter, or the committee
here would not 60 on with the pro-
jet. The Irving Hall, Tammany
Hall and the State Democratic
Committee have been diligently
at work and claim to have made
discoveries that astound those who
are engaged in the prosecution of
the inquiries into the various al.
legged frauds. Among other things
they have found that the prepare.
ton of illegal tickets Ia a technical
violation OF the law, which Is
penal offense under the statute. The
intent Of the voter is not denied,
but the law makes it obligatory
that certain kinds of tickets only
should be voted and opens the pen.

Third-rhe National Democratic
Committee has not yet taken hold
of the matter, but its Executive
Committee meets here Friday. At
that maetiDg the reports from the
three other committees now work.

Wits to prove frauds involving over
20, 900 votes.
Fourth-These commissioners
will request the National Commit
tee to insist upon the appointment
OF a Congressional Committee OF
investigation in the New York
election and make it the very fret
business of both Houses at the APP
preaching session.
Fifth-Thst they are serious in
the matter is now beyond a doubt.
The Republicans have done
nothing, believing up 10 this time

propose to be ready to demand that |

Senators have already been heard
from. Senator Davis, of West Vir.
