BUDD'S ELECTION.
FIRST STEPS HAVE BEEN TAKEN
TO CONTEST 1T.
Wild, Wholesale Charges of Fraud
Are, as Usual. Made by the Re-
pubIicans. Who Have Hopes of
Seating Estee.

San Francisco, Dec. 1o.--A political
storm that has been gathering for
many days broke today. when P. B.
| Cornwall, chairman of the Republican
state central committee, went before
the state supreme court and took the
initial step in what is TO be aNcontest
of the election of James II. Budd, the
Democratic candidate, as governor OF
California. In San Francisco, owing
to the incompetency Of precinct cleo
ton officers and, in many instances,
/ their corrupt methods, the returns
| from many precincts have not been
! properly certified to The board of cleo
| ton commissioners, which is just COM
pleting its canvass Of the returns. In
several precincts. the officers have not
signed their returns and refuse to do
SO. Twelve officers of one precinct,
! in which glaring frauds nave been dis
covered, are row under arrest for re-
fusing to certify to their returns. 1t
! is claimed that If the vote of all these
precincts in which there have been such
Irregularities shall be thrown oct, over
twenty thousand votes will be stricken
| from the returns.
1t was in San Francisco that Budd
polled his big vote. sad as his total
plurality in the state rs less than 1900,
it is plain that the throwing out of
the returns from all these precincts
will defeat Budd and seat Estee, the
Republican candidate.
The Republican state central COM
mittee has decided to attempt this
very thing.
In pursuance of this plan, Chair
man Cornwall this afternoon flied
petition with the supreme court for
writ Of mandate upon the registrar of
elections and the board of election COM
missioners, citing them to appear and
show cause why they should not throw
out and refuse to count the vote of all
precincts the returns from which show
irregularities. The supreme court now
has the petition under consideration
On the state supreme bench the Re
publicans have a majority, but it is
not to be presumed that this fact can
have any bearing upon the questions
in issue.
If the court shall decide in favor of
the Republicans the effect of the de-
cision will be immediate and con-
elusive and Estee will be seated. If
a decision adverse to the Republicans
is rendered it is their declared inten-
ton to carry the contest into the leg
islature, where they have an over
Wheimins majority. The Democrats
are furious They declare that all the
election officers in San Francisco, on
account of whose frauds and incom-
potency it is proposed to throw out
these returns, were appointed under
a Republican administration and did
the bidding of the registrar of eiec-
tons, who is brother-in-Iaw to D NJ.
Burns, secretary, and the practical
head of the Republican state organ
izatiOn.
The supreme court refused to Issue the
restraining order asked for.
The court advised the attorneys for Mr.
Cornwall to apply for an alternative
writ, returnable at some future time. and
have the matter come up in regular order

The Meadowcrafts Spring n Surprise
ON the Court.
Chicago, Dec. 1o-The defense in the
trial of Meadowcraft brothers. charged
with fraud in connection with the
failure of their bank, caused a sensa-
ton today by the introduction Of
unique methods.
The first witness called for the de-
Tense was John D. Collins, upon whose
Testimony an Indictment against the
defendants had been returned. The at
torneys in the defense questioned Mr..
Collins as to the amount of his de-
post, and then publicly rendered him
that amount with interest. This they
claimed cleared their clients of the
charge of ennbezZle1nent, declaring that
under the law eInbezzlement could not
be charged unless the money involved
be lost to the depoJitor.
The court took the matter under adj
