The ba!lotbOXe> of the last election in
Cincinnati had been In the possession of the
police for four months previous TO their d,-
livery to the senatorial committee. They
had been accessible 10 the gang all that
time The keys to them were scattered all
over the city. There have been my etrriuu~
"utEiyingN aS 10 what they would reveal Of
republican frauds when they were opened.
Well. yesterday one OF these boxes was
investigated. and it was found that there
were tweutyfour republican tickets with
the names of the four republican senators
scratched of. and no names substituted.
The Judges and clerks of the pre.in I
that the box came from were i'm
mediately interviewed by a representa-
tive of the Commercial Guzctt,. and they
unanimously testified that there were no
such scratches when the tickets were put
into and locloed in the box by them.
This Is the kind of republican fraud that
is awaiting the committee in those boxes
The boxes have been tampered with for the
PURPOSES of this investigation.
