IN CLOSE QUARTERS.

The members of the Kentucky legis-
lature will be in luck II they succeed
in concluding their senatorship fight
without personal encounters. Satur-
days session abounded in surprises and
excitement. For a time the tide ap-
peared to be running in Blackburn's
favor. but the opposition was able to
put new and unexpected obstacles in
his way.
Few people believe that the senator
ship is an honor which Mr.. Carlisle is
in quest of-the rumor is that, upon his
retirement from the cabinet, he ex-
poets o make New York his home.
However, the secretary's name is men
toned whenever the roll call of the
joint session is made; Mr.. Carlisle's
name is used day after day apparently
because ii can serve a safer purpose in
checking Blackburn than If the So
called sound-money democrats were to
agree on Mr.. McCreary or, indeed. on
any other candidate who has thus far
been mentioned.
The confusion will ripen rapidly at
Frankfort If attempts are made to I'M
seat any members of the joint session
or If the Pigment of legal authority is
resorted to in order to strengthen this
or that candidates vote. That would
be a desperate resort. 1t has been fire.

being Democratic BY one majority. it was
decided on majority vote 10 proceed no
further unless Clerk Halliday acceded to
its demand.
While the wrangling was going on Nj.
Barcar drew up writ of mandate asking
Superior Judge Buckles to order the clerk
to deliver 70 the Board of Supervisors ali
unused ballots, the ballot stubs and re-
Iected ballots. District Attorney Devlin
appeared for the defendant and the case
was heard at once The court held that
II was not the DUTY OF the canvass
ing board 10 determine whether the
ballots sent out had all been used and
accounted for; that the election board
must put the uncounted ballots in the
packages containing the other voted bal
lots, and these. packages could not be
opened, and as the clerk had not refused
20 perform any duty required OF him by
law the writ was denied.
As the unofficial returns gave J. J.
Luchsinger, the Repu biican nominee, but
8 majority, it appears from remarks
dropped by Democratic politicians to-day
that Mr.. Barcar Will contest his election.

journed this evening the returns of but

Committee.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Nov. 9.-Fusion-
ist Barlow's friends, who have been claim
ing their candidates election to succeed
McLachlan, appear to have been
counting ballots before they were taken
from the box. The officers of the Repub-
lican Congressional Committee have ad-
vices from the upper counties 10 the effect
that, because Of errors in reporting returns,
McLachlan was represented SIS being be-
hind, whereas it now seems that he has
been elected by 100 plurality. The report
ed complications are in Monterey and
Santa Cruz counties.
In Los Angeles County the Supervisors,
in reporting returns to-day. corrected
footings amounting TO ninety-eight votes
in favor of MeLschian, with only quarter
Of the tally sheets covered.
Information of these gains having been
com municated to Congressman McLach-
Ian at his home in Pasadena, he at orce
came to this city and TO his Office, where
he was called upon by numerous friends,
who expressed their belief that q fair
count would show him in the lead.
From number OF precincts in the
county and especially N Precinct of Pas
adens, the Republican candidate lost
large number OF votes by most unusual
circumstance. 1t seems that the ink used
IN supplying the stamping pdQS was OF
the indelible kind which adhered in large
quantities TO the ballot, and since no blot
ting pads were used to take up the sur
plus ink, it remained and when the ballots
were folded for depositing in the box
crease occurred between McLachlan's and
Barlow's names and the offset from the
ink in the McLachlan squares was con-
spicuously visible in the Barlow squares
as well. This, on its face, seem ed to indi-
cate that the citizen bad voted for both
candidates, and Notwithstanding a close
inspection made the real reason perfectly
plain, the election board there aud else
where deciued that the ballots should not
be counted for either candidate.
All such votes, as far as known, were
HcLechlan's loss. Leading lawyers claim
that in contest these votes would be
given to the Republican nominee because
OF he evident intent on the part OF the
voters Mr.. McLachlan by no means con-
cedes his opponents election, reports to
the contrary notwithstanding. To-day he
said:
