Election Contest In Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, MD, November 13.-At the
late election James Bond Irregular Demo
craD and Richard II. Allison (Fusionist)
were voted for rs candidates for CLERK Of
the Superior Court OF this city. The re-
turns after the close OF the polls showed
the election Of Bond by 800 majority. The
Judges are required to make their returns
within ten days after m election. In the
first precinct OF the Ninth Ward on the
dav after the election the pOll-bOOks were
noticed to be incomplete, in that the num-
her OF votes each candidate had received
was omitted in the certificate OF the
Judges OF election, but the books
were completed before they were re-
turned. The precinct gave Bond
a large majority, and the friends OF ALI
son claim that the precinct should
be thrown out, thereby giving their
candidate majority. In the third
precinct of the Eighteenth Ward on
the night OF the day of the election,
after the tickets had been counted, it was
found that there were 80 more ballots in
the box than names on the pOll-bO0ks,
giving Allison such majority that II the
first precinct Of the Ninth Ward was
thrown out he would be elected. The
return Judges have met daily since up to
Yesterday, but their proceedings were not
satisfactory TO Allison and his friends. Al
lison is the present clerk OF the Superior
Court, and rs such is the custodian OF the
tickets after they pass from the return
Judges Of election. Yesterday he invited
Bond TO Join him i'm a recount Of the bal
lots, but that gentleman declined, as the
organic law provides that only the House
OF Delegates shall make recount of bal
lots in the event Of contest. Allison
and his friends this afternoon began a re-
count Of the ballots. which will require
several days, rs there were cast ut
$50 precincts in the city $1,000 ballots. So
far only small number OF the return
Judges have refused to sign the returns, a
few under protest and five or six who in
sist that Mr.. Allison received majority OF
the votes cast. Ii is made the duty OF the
clerk OF the Superior Court to send the re-
turns to the Governor before any commits
sion can issue, but ii the commission shall
be issued and the party who receives il
shall be found by the House Of Delegates
not TO have been elected, then another cleo.
ton shall follow within thirty days. The
muddle daily grows thicker, and there is q
probability that It will only be cleared by
the action Of the House OF Delegates, as the

The Greedy Relief Expedition.


WASHINGTON, ID. G.. November 13.-The
court OF inquiry into the conduct OF the
last expedition for the relief OF Lieutenant
Greedy In the Arctic regions has been In
session several days. To-day Lieutenant
Darlington was on the stand. In reply 10
inquiries Lieutenant Darlington described
the finding OF The unsigned memorandum
known as Enclosure No. 4, substantially
as described In his reports to the CHIEF
Signal Officer. He said he first heard oil
the paper In conversation, and subse-
0uent conversation with General Hazen
left upon his mind the impression that the
memorandum was volunteer work OF the
executive officer. "merely to have
II ready I'm case IL was desired"
General IIazcn neither endorsed or dis
ayowed the memorandum. and Lieutenant
Darlington consequently did not regard
IL rs an official paper in any respect. This
is the document which was referred TO in
an explanation from the Signal Bureau a.
Garlingion's Supplemental Instructions,
which IL obcyed would have saved his eX-
pedition from total failure. Lieutenant
Darlington described the stores, firearms.
&c, taken by the PrOteus, and the method
OF storing the former. lie said he sent IN
urgent Telegram 10 tlt tUlcl HlEHil Oulttl,
asking that he and his party be permitted
to accompany the Alhambu TO st. Johns,
in order to personally supervise the trans
shipment Of stores to the Proteus. but re-
Ceiyed no reply TO his telegram and FOL
lowed the previous instructions in going
bv the Yantic. Lieutenant Darlington
said he never saw the Instructions given
10 commander Wldes until his return TO
Washington. He knew merely that that
vessel was to accompany him north. sub
iect 10 circumstances and the condition OF
the ice. but understood from the start that
the Yantic was not to interfere with the
Proteus. He expected from the beginning
that when the ice pack was reached the
Proteus would necessarily proceed alone,
while the Yantic would seek more circuit
tuous and safer route. In reply to direct
inquiry by the Court Lieutenant CARING
ton said the Yantic was practically OF no
use. why was she sent them"
"Wen, as ! supposed, merely to satisfy
public opinion"
Lieutenant Darlington explained his
parting from the Yantic At 81. Johns as
being due to the knowledge that he had
certain preparations to make ut Disco, and
thought it better TO proceed and get every
thing ready there before the Yantic arrived,
the route for st. Johns TO Disco being open
with no possibility oil danger. No neces-
sity for the two vessels to keep in company
