Justice Bartlett, in two decisions hand
cd down in the Supreme Court, Brooklyn,
to-day has assisted materially in the
unraveling of the election snarl in Mount
Vernon.
Ever since Nav 10. when the election
was held. Edison Lewis. Republican, and
Edwin w. Fisk have been fighting for
the Mayoraty; meanwhile Mayor Brush
has held ove".
In one Of the decisions Justice Bartlett
allows All alternative writ of mandamus
to issue to try the questions of fact AS
to two disputed ballots east in the Sec
ond District of the Fourth Ward.
ON tho other decision His Honor denies
the application of Edison Lewis. Repub-
lican to compel Mayor Brush to hand
over the Mayoralty on the ground that
the vote was properly canvassed OH May
10 by the Board of Aldermen.
At the meeting in question but five
Aldermen were present out of ten. They
were Republicans. Mayor Brush is n
Republican also.
Mr., Fisk claims that quorum was
not present. He says five out of ten
Aldermen do not constitute a majority.
