A COSTLY MISTAKE.
The 1 :, 900 Election Tickets All Have to be
Printed Over.


Printed Over.
The 1900 ballots to be used at the
election next Tuesday have defect
which must be remedied, says Judge
Hszen, and the whole lot has been re-
turned to the printer.
All this trouble came about because
the name of Joseph Marshall, candidate
for councilman in the Fifth ward and
Joseph Ward, candidate for justice of
the peace, were not printed twice on the
ticket Both Marshall and Ward were
nominated by petitions and called them
selves Independents"
When the Democrats held their con-
vention they nominated both men. City
Clerk NJ cFadden placed their names on
the Democratic ticket but they were not
placed on the "Independent" ticket.
Both Marshall and Ward protested but
Clerk McFadden consulted lawyers who
told him the names should appear but
once.
Marshall applied for mandamus last
evening to compel the city clerk to place
his name on the s'Independent" ticket
and Judge Hazen decided this morning
that it should be done.
This only necessitated printing the
name on the ballots of the Fifth ward,
but the same rule applied to Ward, the
candidate for justice, and as his name ap-
pears on all the tickets they all had to be
changed. The tickets had been folded
and apportioned out to the various pre-
cincts and they all have to be unfolded
and again run through the press.
By hard work they will be completed
by tomorrow evening. A force will work
on them all night tonight and all day to-
morrow

the Wrong Man.
CHICAGO, Nov, 16.-A man who was sup
posed to DO Clarence White, one of the
gang Of porch climbers who last spring
robbed tho residence Of Norman d. Ream,
on Lake Shore drive of thousands Of dol
lars worth of diamonds, was killed by de-
tcctives belonging to the Berry Agency
The Berry men have been trying to find
White ever since tho Lake Shore robbery
occurred, and on Thursday evening 1--WE OF
them were standing on the corner Of Win
throp place and Polk street. Two mon
went by in buggy, and the detectives
started in pursuit. The men refused TO
halt, and were fired upon, one of them be-
Ing Killed. This was supposed to be Clar-
ence White, but proved to be Frank White,
confectioner 1t Is supposed the two men
beloved themselves pursued by burglars,
Tho Inquest last evening over the body
OF White led to startling developments.
Tho discoveries mnde may result most
dlsastrously to not less than six members
OF the Berry detective agency, including
tho superintendent, and possibly seventh
man.
The circumstances surrounding the case
go to show that the buggy in which the
TWO men were riding was brought almost
to standstill when the tragedy occurred,
and that at least three of the detectives
who were detailed as assistants In the ar
rest OF Clarence White made an effort to
crowd about the vehicle and emptied one
or more chambers Of their reviewers In the
direction of the innocent man who was
Killed As result of the police investigs-
ton wholesale arrest of the members of
the agency was ordered by Inspector Fitz-
patrick, and eight men are locked up at
police headquarters.
The names OF those arrested are; Charles
A. Mcdonald, the superintendent; Joseph
A. We'll, David MoLain, Joseph Mackenzie,
Joseph Flschel, Charles Poole, John Frew
and j. w. Dix. The name OF the man
wanted is Thompson. This is the whole
foece of tho Berry detective agency.
Fischel admitted today that he fired two
shoes into the buggy, and gave evidence
duplicating Frew and Thompson. The
prisoner, Poole, also admitted having used
his revolver. White was shot almost to
pieces by the detectives, two bullets having
pierced his brain, two went through his
chest, and he was shot through the spine
