CHARLESTON, W. Va, Jan. 1S.-The
contest for the seat in the senate for the
Thirteenth senatorial district was be-
gun to-day before the elections commit
tee, Senator H. C. Mcneil, chairman.
Getzendanner claims that shafrer was
not legally on the sound money Demo-
cratic ticket, on which at least eighty
eight votes were cast for him, giving him
on the face OF the returns a majority OF
sixty votes. Shaffer's name was put on
the sound money Democratic ticket in
the whole district, on u petition filed in
jefferson county alone. and the petition
ers were Bryan men, who had no right 10
ask any name to be put on the ticket OF
any other party.
Furthermore the name OF Shaffer was
put on the sound money Democratic
ticket against the strong protest OF the
sound money Democrats. The National
Democratic (sOund money!, party had
duly filed in each county by certincate
duly signed by It's voters, nominations
for presidential electors, and mad made
no nomination for state senator in the
Thirteenth senatorial district. Shaiter,
not being 4 member OF the National
Democratic party. and mis- name not be-
ing legally on the ticket of that party
GetZendanner claims that Shafter is nor
entitled to any votes cast for him by rea-
son of his name being on that ticket. ~
Is set forth In Getzendanners nosiee OF
contest that fifty-one OF these illegal
votes We're cast in Jefferson county,
tVN
teen In Morgan. 1t IS alleged that many
more such Illegal votes were cast, Out
they were not tailed separately and the
true result cannot be fully ascertalned
without an examinatio OF all the ballots
I'm the district. II appears that wIthln
the legal time OF twenty days before the
election. the illegal Shafrer ticket was
dIed IN jefferson county, but that certih-
cate being found to be defective II was
secretly removed from the clerks ofhSe
after the twenty days. and another SUD-
Ex-state Senator George Z. Price,
counsel for Shaffer, moved to quash the
proceedings. He insisted that the Votes
cast for Shaffer on the sound money
ticket were good and should STAND.

Russell, "a son OF the Lord Chief Justice.
Baron Russell, OF Killowan.
After the jury had been charged Ivory
pleaded not guilty in clear, frm voice.
Mr.. Mcintyre has no legal status in

self to occasional suggestions to coun-

Mr.. Mcintyre at lunch said to a repre-

He added: IT am much struck with the
difference in conducting trial here and

him. He In no way admits his guilt, but
is satisfied that the verdict Will be
