Board Of Inspectors IN an election dis
trict OF the Second Assembly District,
the indicted inspector on trial yes

miner for violation OF the election laws.
1t was a serious case; one OF the worst
yet brought before the court 1t was
shown that Republican votes had been
cast. but in the count they had wholly
disappeared.
This was a district in which a prize
was offered for the best showing for
Maynard and against Bartlett. Was the
offer Of the prize a temptation to the
inspectors to commit frauds? Was it. in
fact, a bride held out to the inspectors?
1t is possible that Dooley, who was
found guilty after a de.iberation by the
Jury lasting only ten minutes, may get
seven years Imprisonment.
Will that be the end OF the case?

BALLOT REFORM.

Although II Is given out that a sharp

cpSn oeclv& that Prof. Collin, whom
Cor. P9owsr is accustomed to consult
OF constitutional questions, entertains a
fixe@ cpinion tina the Sheffield bill is
open to constitutional objections. 1t Is
rumoreo tnat a strong opinion has al
ready been prepared presenting that
view OF the question. If the Sheffield
bill should be returned from the Exec
utive Chamber with such an objection.
It q said hat the Republican leaders
will then favor the adoption of the
Sulzer bill, which Is thus likely to be-
come a law.
Both bills simplify the present law and
are decided improvements, the sole diff
ference between them being the blanket
paster provision. Outside tn" constitu-
tional question, 1t is quite certain that
the abolition Of the paster would re-
move the xcuse for raising money in
elections, and that Is doubtless the con-
sideration that influences many of those
who regard the paster as an evil that
ought to be dispensed with.

The argument on an order to show
cause why the order OF arrest OF Hyman
HICKMAN, who is confined in the Ludlow
Street Jail In default of $1,000 bail,
should not be vacated. was heard by
Judge Freedman in the Superior Court
this morning.
HICKMAN was arrested on Feb. 6, pend
ing the action for divorce and alimony
brought by his wife, Bertha. on the stat
utory grounds. They were married in
Russia three years ago. They came to
this country o afterwards.
In his complaint, HICKMAN claims that
on Aug. 10. 1892, his wife's father. who is
wealthy. induced her to abandon him.
He again induced her to come back. but
exactly one year later, she again left
him. She then asked hin to consent to
a divorce under the rules Of the Hebrew
Church, but upon his refusal she began
proceedings, saying she would keep him
locked up until he consented.
In the mean time HICKMAN began a
suit for $1,000 damages against his faith

lions.
