10TH TO ABIDE BY THE RESULT
There seems to be murmur Of disap-
prevail in some quarters concerning the
result of last Tuesdays primary cleo
ton in this city, and it is limited that
the Council nominees may not have @
walk-over in the general election. In
the Second ward James II. Lob an
nounces himself as 'sunup to sun
down candidate for Councilmanic hon
ors." while in the Fourth, John Schafe
is not satisfied with the count OF last
Tuesday night, says he 'had no show,
has given the committee few days in
which TO make a recount and has be-
come so dissatisfied at the idea of being
rejected as an Areopagite that he
threatens to become an Independent
candidate at the coming election. The
friends of Mr.. Paul r. Evans are said
to be anxious to return him to Council.
The murmurs of detection in the Third
ward have become very loud, and dark
horses are said to be in grooming.
There is no marked spirit of despera-

fame could be famed from the few
sparks disceruible there. In regard to
the general city officers nominated by
the primary there seems to be no marks
Of disapproval and that they will en-
counter no opposition is generally con-
coded. Perhaps, after all, everything
may become serene by election day,
but at present there are signs OF kick

tor Price to-day sent the following let
ter to Mr.. L. c. Barley, chairman of the
city democratic committee
ALEXANDRIA, Va, May 5. 1898.
Louis c. Barley, esq:
My Dear Sir-I would like you to invite
the judges and clerks of election OF the 4th
ward TO meet me at your office this evening
say about 81 three o'clock. and examine the
votes cast for auditor in that ward. Ny rc'.-
son for .king for this is that apparently ia
100 votes behind my associates on the ticket,
in ward which have generally carried, and
it appears to me that the judges have made a
miscount inadvertently, no doubt. Yours
Z. T. PRICE.
Mr.. Barley replied as follows;
ALEXANDRIA, Va, May 5, 1898.
E. f. Price, esq:
Dear Sir-Referring to your letter of to-day
will say that since you desire to 90 over the
count in the 18th ward, SO far as you are con-
cerned, will get Messrs. Vincent, Ballinger
and Walker to come to my office this evening
at 3 o'clock and We will go over the tickets
Very truly yours, LOUIS c. BARLEY.
The judges of election met this even
ing in accordance with the above and
recounted the vote. They found that
for auditor Mr.. Price received 3S1 votes
instead of 362, as given him in the GA
zETTE on Wednesday, or 262 as return
ed by the judges on the night of the pri-
mary. The judges say the error was made
in the compilation of the vote by the
clerk. Mr.. Price had no opposition at
the primary, and only wanted the vote
recounted for his own satisfaction.
The judges this evening also recount
ed the vote cast for Councilmen and
found the returns as heretofore pub
lished to be correct.
