STILL AT WAR.
MEssRS. bean, DAWIS AND BISHOP
MAKE A NEW MOVE
In their Efforts to Gust Aldermen Hannah,
Deubler aad MeltOn-@Quo WarraRtO
Proceedings Insfituted--Dr.
Cheatham to GiEse May
ca Baldwin
Twist.

When the supreme court rendered its
decision some time since sustaining the
decision of Judge Query in the city cleo
ton case, it was generally thought that
that WAS the end OF the matter and that
Messrs. Hannah, Deubler and Melton
would be permitted to serve out their
terms as aldermen without further
trouble.
But it seems that such is not tke case.
Messrs Dean, Davis and Bishop, it APP
pears, only stopped long enOungh to take
breathing spell and each new hold
before giving their successful opponents
another round. These gentlemen,
through their attorneys, Messrs. Hoyl &
Parks, have instituted quo warranto pro-
ceedings against the successful asrirants
for aldermanic honors, and the whole
matter will take another course through
the legal mills.
The papers we're filed in the clerk
office late Friday afternoon, and were
served on Aldermen Hannah, Deubler and
Melton at about o'clock that nj ght at
their homes.
The petition to the court asking that
the election be set aside charges that
thirteen persons were allowed to vote
for Messrs. Hannah, Deubler and Melton
who were non-residents; that three voted
for them who had not paid their taxes;
that one Of their voters was not a natu
rallied citizen. while another was
min"r; that two were allowed to vote
who had not registered in the city; that
the managers adopted the county regis
tration list and ignored the city registra-
ti0n, thereby keeping one hundred
and thirteen persons from voting who
would have voted for the petitioners.
Judge Query has set next Monday as
the time for ii, airing The petition.
Messrs. Hannah, Deubler and Melton
have employed Bacon & Miller, OF Ma
con, and j. A. Laing, to look after
their interests in this suit They say
they are prepared to meet every charge
and show as large a number of illegal
votes on the other side, and that they do
not fear the result in the least.
After Mayor Baldwin.
DR.. w. B. Cheatham, who headed Al
dermen Hannah, Deubler and Melton's
ticket, and was defeated by Mr.. A. J.
| Baldwin, who headed the other ticket,
has employed Messrs, Bacon & Miller
and Laing to bring quo warranto pro
ceedings against Mayor Baldwin. DR..
Cheatham was defeated by six votes, and
thinks he can show up enough Illegal
ballots to GUST his successor.
No matter in whose favor a decision is
rendered next Monday, the matter will
again find its way to the supreme court.
A settlement of this unfortunate state
of affairs seems to be a long ways off yet.

The cXpressmcn. meanwhile. were in
the house consulting with Mrs. Clarke
| When they came out the crowd had
doubled. They had decided to knock
Oft the Stats from the door and let Leo
make his own exit. While this was
being done the people in the front rank
of the crowd tried to get back. and
| those behind tried to get forward, so
that they all stepped on one another,
and there was great noise and con-
| fusion.
This rumpus increased the nervous
| ness of the dog, and he began to bark
in terrific manner. The men re-
moved two of the Stats. and then Leo
removed the other Stats and also the
| the men. One Of the cxpressmen got
under the wagon seat, and the other
went ont over a wheel. Leo had the
| wagon all to himself, and he could
| have had the street if lie had cvinced
| any desire for it,
But he didn't; and right there arose
new difficulty. The dog wouldn't
| come down. Mrs. Clarke called to him
but he was SO excited that he did not
notice her. lie remained in the wagon
and addressed the crowd with his
laundering bass
Then came volley of suggestions.
Everybody knew just how the dog
should be induced to como down.
IF somebody gets up into the wagon
and coaxes him little,'' said a tall.
thin man, "he will jump down all
right"
Suppose you do it," said one of the
exprcssmen.
The thin man said that he had q
family dependent upon him, and the
crowd icered. This made the man an
CRY, and he climbed into the wagon.
Then he climbed down again very
fast to ask Mrs. Clarke whether the dog
had a habit of eating between meals.
She admitted that he sometimes gnawed
bones.

Whercupon the thin man in wrath

at that moment, and ridiculed every

L heard an amazing dog story day
or two ago, and, though it was told to
me by the owner of the dog, shall re-
peat it as fact.
When that able journalist, who is
known in Boston as Jim Clarke, left
the city of culture, and, bringing "a
large share of culture with him. came
to New York to engage in the prac-
tices of his profession, he arranged
with great care for the transportation
of his handsome st. Bernard dog, Leo
Leo is not as big as n cow, but he wears
more teeth. especially in his upper
jaw; and when Mr.. Clarke first med
itated intrusting him to an express
company he could not wholly repress a
doubt as to which of them would be
carrying the other when they arrived
in New York. Mr. Clarke has deep
affection for this noble animal, and he
feared that the brass in an express
messengers buttons might make Leo
sick. so he thought out scheme by
which the danger to the dog could be
averted. He decided to have the dog
brought on in his kennel So the
slanting roof was taken off: boards
were nailed across; and when Leo had
been induced to enter, Stats were
nailed across the door.
IN this way Leo travelled safely. and
nothing OF Importance happened until
q gigantic express wagon. bearing the
dog and kennel. was drawn up before
the door of Mr.. Clarkc's house in
brooklyn Then serious question
arose: How was the dog to bc got out
of the wagon? Only two men had been
sent with this unusual package. and
they could not lift one corner of it. Mr.
Clarke was not ut home, and there was
no mar in sight who could be hired to
assist.
The eXpressmen made some expert
ments with the kennel and succeeded.
in jolting it about little. Leo re-
scented this assault upon his dignity
with n growl that shook the earth
The small boy who is always present
on such an occasion, heard this sound.
and in the usual mysterious manner
Immediately summoned one hundred
other boys to whom he communicated
the startling information that there
was a lion in the box.
Its pony said one, "he's a-llicl-
ing"
Several men stopped to see what was
the matter, and one of them expressed
the opinion that it was not a lion but Il
bear. He got up into the wagon to
verify his statement. whcrcupon Leo
growled once more and the man went
out over the tail-board without being
