The NIaIOraltY QuestioN.

Judge Harrison, counsel for MT. Andrew,
 in his visit to the Town Clerks office to in-
 spect the Third ward city box was accom-
 panied by the conveyancer, Mir. J. Gardner
 Clark, who went as disinterested person.
 On examination Mir. Clark was of the opin-
 ion that the seal was all right, although the
 paste or mucilage had been affected by the
 heat. He was satisfied that the box had not
 been tempered with. The Town Clerk said
 the seals on the other boxes had been so af- fected by the steam heat of the room. Moderator McGann, of the Third ward, says that he sealed the box properly by pasting the paper over the keyhole and the thin space between the cover and the body of the box. The piece was wet with mucilage wheI he attached it. Representative elect Law says the return he made (to the Town instead
 of the City Clerk) was all correct and ac | cording to law. He had made them at half past II o'clock Wednesday night. It was | understood that, while not agreeing as te the law, the moderator would place the returns in the City Clerks hands. Wher | this is done the City Clerk will give MT. An drew his certificate of election, as on the facs | of the returns he has received the larges
 number of votes. Then ex-Mayor Lewis ca1 l bring his petition for a recount.
