Commonwealth Attorney and n MuIc.

The Richmond Railway and Electric
Company was reported by officer Foster
for cruelty to animals, and the case was
thoroughly ventilated and discussed be-
fore the Police Justice yesterday. II
seems that a mule attached to one Of
the Broad-street cars fell down at the
corner of Ninth and Main streets. Messrs
W. A. TONNES and a. Il. -Gugon were
on hand to represent the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty 10 Animals: Mr..
w. r. Meredith was present as the repre-
sentative of the railway company. but
Commonwealth s-Attorney Spotswood was
busily engaged elsewhere. a rule was
issued for him. 1t was explained that 1t
was purely accidental that the mule fell
down. A great deal OF argument was liz
dulged in, but after a brief recess the
Court was asked by Mr.. GuiGon to dis
miss the case, which was done. Colonel
SpotsWood came to the rescue of the JUS
tice as soon as he could. but not until
after the controversy over the long-eared
quadruped had ended.

expires The contract was filed TO the
letter. despite the fact that the shops are
banked up with work.

in Richmond before. and the amount OF

tho totlI mum Der who voted.
w. II. SchiTey, tally keeper at the

the number Of votes in the box as received
by the commissioners.
Mr. SchiGey was seen and asked what
were the facts Of the irregularities at

L pledge of secrecy for the present con-
corning the Incidents OF the election at

his opinion to throw out the box. lie
said that IN addition to the poll list being

These reports, and the appearance Of

but what conclusions or purpose they
have arrived at has not been disclosed
DR.. Stokes further said that he had not
yet admitted his defeat or thrown up
the sponge, as had been stated bv some
of the papers. He, in fact, thought there
was still room for doubt He
has simply refused to say any
thing one way or the other to the
newspaper correspondents, as he did not
propose to acknowledge defeat until he
knew it to be a fact. The returns from
from Lexington as yet were very meager,
he said, amounting to those received from
four precincts, which gave him majority
of Ia votes. These precincts were along
the lines of railroads, where Judge Izlar
was strong.
