UNIQUE ELECTION CONTEST.
Man Beaten for Congress by 10000
Cites a Legal TeehnicaIity.

NEW YORK, Jan. N.-Congressman Benja-
min l.. Fairchild, of the Sixteenth district,
today served notice of contest on William L.
Ward, who was declared elected in that dis
trict last fall and the house will have to de-
eide case without parallel in American pol
tiles.
Mr.. Fairchild, who is an organization Re-
publican, was renominated by a convention
held at Yonkers. Mr.. Ward, an anti-organi-
cation Republican. was nominated by a con-
vention held at White Plains, which was
controlled by w. H. Robertson, the anti
Platt leader of Westchester county.
Then a contest arose as to which was the
regular Republican nominee and entitled to
have his name printed the official ballot.
The lower courts and the secretary of state
decided in favor of Mr.. Ward. Mr.. Fairchild
then ran as an Independent Republican can
didate and received 700 votes in the district
Mr.. Ward received 700 votes, a plurality
Of 1900 over the Democratic candidate, and
was declared elected.
Mr. Fairchild appealed from the decision Of
the lower courts on the regularity of his NOM
ination, and yesterday the court of appeals
rendered a decision in his favor. On this de-
cision he will contest the election in the
house. His contention is that, in view of the
decision, Mr. Wards name was legally placed
upon the official ballot. and the winning
votes should be counted for himself.

EXPECTED THAT THE HICKS-DON-
NELLY TEAM WILL. DO An
OTHER TURN.
nINGMAN HAS MANY FRIENDS
LAST SESSION OF THE LEG
STATURE.
THEY WILL ALL BE HEARD FROM
When the Report of the Committee
Which Turned Down His Con-
test Has Been Submitted.

More fun is promised in the house
this morning than has been given here
yet, and certainly the Hicks and Don
nelly comedy sketch team has fur
nished the galleries some admirable
amusement thus early in the session
The house yesterday received the re-
port Of the committee on elections
throwing out the contest of George L.
Dingman for the seat now held by
Matthias Lehman, in spite of the fact
that Lehman is a Democrat while the
house is overwhelmingly Republican,
showing that the committee rose above
party lines
Whether it rose above other forms Of
narrowness is, however, a moot ques-
ton which has already given rise to
one savage tilt on the floor of the
house, paved the way for a second, and
bids fair to materialize the third this
forenoon. Judge Hicks favored turn
ing down the contest Of Mr.. Dingman
on the ground Of expense, stating that
contests should not be permitted to
take up the time of the house and its
committees unless there were good
grounds therefor.
Donnelly took issue with him, and
in so doing he won the admiration of a
number of Republicans, who were
frie ndly with Dingman. The latter,
who is a grocer in Northeast Mime
apolis, is a popular fellow, and, as
chairman Of the university committee
in the last session Of the legislature.
made an enviable\ record. His Repub-
lican friends, or about forty of them,
at least, want to see him seated. And,
with sharp trident in the hands Of
the sage Of Nininger, they expect to
give the G. o. P. elephant, driven by
Mufti Hicks, a few savage prods this
morning
They claim that, while Dingman was
beaten, apparently, in the recent cleo
ton by not to exceed thirty-seven
votes forty-two votes were changed
one way or the other in the recount.
and Mr.. Dingman gained slightly
thereby. They, therefore, hold that
there is good reason for the contest,
and beg leave to differ with the pug
nacious member of the Hennepin dele
cation.
