HAMILTON COUNTY FRAUDS.
Majority and Minority Reports of the
Ohio Investigating Committee.

COLUMBUS, o., April 28.-The reports of the
Ohio legislative committee which has been in
vestigating the Senatorial elections in Hamilton
county, have been completed and an agreement
has been entered into by the committee that they
shall be submitted to the Senate tomorrow, be
printed and come up for final action next week.
The confidence of members of the committee has
been abused and the leading points OF the reports
have already leaked out. The Republican MEM
bers of the committee review the frauds in Hami-
ton county in general, and concentrate on Spee-
fed frauds claimed to have been shown in the
fourth word of Precinct A, the sixth wards OF
Precinct ID and Precinct G, and the Ninth ward
of Precinct F. These give the Democrats ,S6S,
and the Republicans 179 votes. The report shows
by an accumulation of evidence that the returns
from these precincts were so perverted by fraud
as to be wholly worthless. So it recommends that
unner the first agreement of the committee OF six
which provided that the committee should throw
out the whole vote in precincts where there was
evident fraud by the officers of the election the
entire vote of these four precincts be thrown out
This would cut down the vote OF the Democratic
candidates 1858 and of the Republican candidates
159, and thus elect all the Republican Senatorial
candidates.
The report of the Democratic members, claims
that there were both Republican and Democratic
frauds and states that under the second PROPOSE
tiOn adopted by the committee of six, which pro-
yided that in the precincts where frauds were
committed by others than officers of the election,
the committee should ascertain the extent of such
frauds and eliminate them. The fraudulent votes
returned in four Democratic precincts, including
the notorious Precinct A, Fourth ward, and in
nine Republican precincts should be thrown out
BY throwing out these 13 precincts, a majority OF
about 900 is given for the Democratic Senators
now sitting for Hamilton county. therefore all
the Democratic members of the Senate are entitled
to the seat. e,
Both reports agree in some respects as to the
precincts which shall be thrown out under the
rule adopted by the committee.

OTTAWA, Ont, April 2S.-The House of COM
mons assembled yesterday. Dr. Cameron, NJ p,
of Inverness, N s., states that there is much ex-
citement in Nova Scotia over the fishery troubles.
He says it is necessary that Canadians in order

sue the practice, in vogue before the expiration
of the Washington treaty of shipping on board of
American vessels. If they do not they will be
compelled to remove to the United States and
ship from there. He argues that 1t would be
much better, all things considered to permit

tanning men and supplies than to drive them off.
