magnetized and deranged from being
carried In a trolley car aud they will
probably be much surprised. Yet the
facts are strong In confirmation OF such
statement.

shows that on the average two and
half times AZ many magnetized watches

regularity in the count made by the cleo
ton officers Of the precinct, or to az
feet the result OF the election, far as any
candidate Is concerned.
This tedious and trying work, begun by
the committee about 1870 o'clock Friday
night, was not concluded until about )
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and when
this matter had been disposed OF the
result Of the primary was formally an
nounced, and the committee closed a ses-
sion that had lasted A hours without re-
cess or adjournment.
The recount showed that the returns
made by the precinct officers were practi-
cally correct, though there was one error
in recording the vote OF Mr.. Brock, owing
to a small mark opposite the number
being mistaken for the figure by the
official who was making the tally, ana,
being added as SUCH. This made the vote
for Brock, for the Council 100 more than
he was entitled TO.
With this exception, there is little dif-
ference between the vote returned "
the judges and that given by the com
mittee. Such slight differences as do ex-
ist is due 10 the fact that the precinct
officers did not count the votes OF candi-
dates whose names had been so scratched
and then partially erased as to leave
a doubt as to the voters intentions.
Some Of these, the committee, in their re-
count, passed, while others, which had
been allowed to go in by the precinct
officers, were thrown out by the former.
