New YORK, Nov. 10.-The World prints
the following under the headline OF "a
Hint to Steal:" The managers OF the Re-
publican Committee, under the personal
leadership of Blaine, are making desperate
efforts to steal the State of New York by
means Of money and promises of official
patronage. They are seeking to debauch
the Canvassers of Elections to appear be-
fore the County Boards of Canvassers and
correct returns. All day yesterday secret
conferences were held in the rooms Of the
Republican National Committee, Stephen
B. Elkins, Secretary Fessenden (mon-
opolist), Jones, and Others being
present. Precisely what was done is
not made public, but at 5 o'clock the
following dispatch was flashed over the
Western Union wires:
Rooms of the National Republican Com
mittee, New York, Nov. 8: The committee
is confident that the official count will
give US New York, and elect Blaine and
Logan.
(Signed): A. FEssESDEN, Secretary.
a lew minutes dlt6E WdIQb d uloPdtCA
was sent to a trusty Republican at Glen
Cove, L. l., as follows: Have all the Re-
publican Inspectors present at the meet
ing of the county csnvassers Tuesday.
Don't fall" A similar dispatch was sent to
every county in the State, and it was
passed along the line that every county re-
turn is to be challenged. and plenty Of
| canvassers are prepared to swear to err
rors in the count, 80 as to change the al
ready certified and all verified returns.
OF course challenging of this sort is done
at every election, and those interested
generally have attorneys present. Ordi-
narily the matter is scarcely heard of, be-
cause it is generally done in the interest
Of SOM local candidates merely, Blu when
the result 10 80 close in the entire State on
the vote for President, people who never
heard Of such a thing go wild with excite
ment over what they term a Returning
Board, and are as manifestly ignorant Of
how votes are counted and officially re-
turned as they are of what constitutes the
Associated Press.
