THE NEW YORK CITY CENSUS.
Mayor Grants Second Demand for a
kecOunt-lt Differs From the First.

Mayor Grant will probably find that he has
made another blunder in the matter Of de-
manding q recount of New York city The
evidence he has sent to prove that the count
by the federal census was incorrect presents
the demand for recount in entirely differ
ent form from that it bore when appealed from
the superintendent OF the census
and it is not improbable that Secretary Noble
will inform Mayor Grant that the evidence
should have been sent to the superintendent
of the census instead of to him (the Secretary.
The case comes before the Secretary upon an
appeal from the superintendent decision,
which was made when no evidence Of an in
correct count had been submitted The
Secretary decided the case as it came to him,
and it is reasonable to suppose that
he may decide that he ID not warranted in
taking up the case Ill q now form, in which the
superintendent has not had chance to con-
slider it. A gentleman who is familiar with the
case said to STAR reporter today that if Mayor
Grant wanted to base his demand upon any
evidence he might have he should make the
application and submit the evidence to the
superintendent OF the censu Iand If he decided
against the recount the case might then be ap-
pealod to the Secretary. There il no hkeli-
hood that New York will get q recount.

The campaign is practically over, 50 far, at

ters have now ceased. practically. the shipment
of documents and are resting ON their laurels
or rather on the hopes of laurels
to be gained next Tuesday. For months
the rooms of the two committees
have been crowded with documents OF all sorts
in process of distribution to an anxious COM
munity. Now, however, there are not enough
documents left at either place to furnish read
ing matter for q single Ohio voter. They have
all been shipped, and presumably the in
dustrious granger is burning midnight oil
pouring over the transgressions Of Mckinley or
the iniquities OF Carlisle. The documents
having all been sent there only remained for
the active workers here to see that the en-
ployes were paid off and then HE themselves
after the documents and go home to vote. The
two headquarters by tomorrow will be pretty
well cleaned out of managers and tonight the
republican headquarters will be closed for the
first time III many moons.

SOUTHERN REPUBLICANS,
Leading Democrats Who Favor the
Election Of Coleman and Ewart.

1t is understood that democratic leaders,
especially northern democrats, are urging the
democracy of Mr.. Coleman's district in Louisi-
ana and of Ewarts district i'll North Carolina
to let these two republicans be returned to Con-
gress. The reason for this is that they both
voted against the election bill and were fair
representatives Of their people.
1t is argued that the return of these men
would be a refutatlon of the charge that no re-
publican, however able and respectable a man
he may be, can expect any political prefer
mett from the south. Both Ewart aud Cole
man had the respect of their democratic COL
leagues in the House and we're generally re-
garded as the ablest republicans that have
been sent from the far south; and it is urged
that their defeat would be pointed to al an evil
dence of intolerance.
