Ret0Sns Coming In Slowly.
Up to 9 O'Clock "a ballot boxes were re-
turned to City Hall and placed in cell.
These were from the most populous districts
in the central part of the city, vet the vote
was surprisingly light In the "a districts
only 1913 votes were cast. Mr.. Kennedy re-
ceived within few votes of this entire
number. In the First ward E. S. Braun re-
ceived two votes and in some of the other
wards there were struggling votes for other
candidates. In the Second district of the
Seventh ward 46 votes were cast, all of
which were for Mr.. Kennedy. Two of these
votes were cast aside as they were defective.
Up to II o'clock there were but "a boxes
left in City Hall and 1t is thought the elec-
tion officers are not informed as to where
the boxes should be deposited. Those who
brought their boxes in were uncertain as
to what disposition should be made of the
box keys. Sergeant Sherry did not know,
but advised them to retain them until they
could be legally informed.
1t is not known when Councils will meet
to induct the Mayor-elect into Office, but it
is thought special meeting will be called

TO DISCUSS THE STRIKE

A Meeting of the Building Trades Held In
SaIler's Hall.
A meeting of the Building Trades Unions
was held in Saller's Hall last night to dis
cuss the situation between the Builders
Exchange and the Trades Unions.
The hall was we'll filled with representa-
tives of various unions, who literally ap-
plauded the sentiments of the speakers.
Thomas Grundy, the real estate man, was
principal speaker of the evening, and during
the course of his remarks he took occasion
to anathematize the press, the power of
capital and the general condition of poll
tics.
Mr.. Dougherty, representing the knights
of Labor, followed Mr.. Grundy and re-
marked in quiet, inofensive manner that
the press was too powerful to make an
open fight against, and said it was ad-
visable for a contestant to act in polite
manner when fighting power
No definite action was taken on the SUBJ
Ject under consideration.

William NJ. Kennedy Has No
Opposition at the Polls
and Is Elected
ALLEGHENY CITY'S MAYOR
A Forgotten Feature of the New Law
Causes CONSERVATION.
OPPORTUNITY FOR SLICK WORK.
Very Few Votes Cast and No Excitement
Over the Election.
SOME PLANS OF TIE NEW EXECUTIVE

William NJ. Kennedy was elected Mayor
of the city of Allegheny by the lowest vote
polled in that city for years.
The cause of the small vote cast and the
apparent disintereste6ness of the voters of
Allegheny is attributed to the fact that
there was no opposition to the Republican
candidate, Nh. Kennedy, and, in some few
cases, to its being the first election held in
Allegheny under the new Baker ballot law.
The polls presented the unusual appear
snce of semi-desertion. The crowd of poll
ticians and hangers-on who in former years
marked the location of the polling places,
was conspicuous by its absence. A calm
expression was upon the fronts of the build
ings, anG the feminine pedestrians, who, in
times agone, gathered their skirts about
them and hastened by on the opposite side
of the street, had their keen curiosities
gratifed, and they at last saw within the
mystic shrine where men made destinies.
Election judges Have a Slow Time.
In the various precincts the judges wore
a semi-disgusted expression at the quietude
of the day and the disinterestedness Of the
people, and they amused themselves during

CAN'T TAX PATENTS,

Judge Mcpherson Decides In Favor of tn >
Westinghouse Company.
In the case of the State versus the West
inghouse Electric and Manufacturing Com
pany for taxes, Judge Mcpherson handed
down an opinion at Harrisburg yesterday,
declaring that patent rights can't be taxed
by the State. in 1888 the company was
taxed for s14, 964 As and in 1890 for $16,-
793 81. The tax law exempts companies
organized exclusively tor manufacturing
purposes, but the State officers contended
that its charter covered such variety of
powers that the company did not come with
in this limitation of the law. Judge Nc
Pherson thought that the company was a
manufacturing concern, and then he added
that a tax on patents was subversive of the
National Governments powers, and repug-
nant to its paramount sovereignty.
