the superintendent of the defendant
company's works TO assist in the re-
moving of condenser. After a num-
ber Of preliminaries had been given at
tention, the plaintiff. who got on a lad
der, was ordered TO pull on a chain
which was attached to a block and
tackle. After a while Farrell noticed
that the condenser to WHICH the chain
was attached was not moving fast and
remarked IL TO the boss. Patrick Brad
ley, who, with a sharp predatory re-
mark, said Farrell was not pulling on
the chain Farrell pulled a bit harder
and the block and tackle came down.
Fortunately il did not strike him
square on the head, but only q g1anc-
ing blow, though the blow left several
scars on his head. Farrell was knocked
senseless, and for seven weeks was laid
up from the effects Of the accident.

tained, in perfect order and 10 ring

NO RECOUNT.
Board Of CanVassers Has Denied the
Request Of Mr.. CoveIl.
Mr.. West viii Serve as Alderman From
Tenth During Next Year.

The board OF canvassers and regis
tration, after mature deliberation, has
decided not 10 grant a recount on the
vote cast for alderman in the Tenth
ward, and this opinion is based strictly
upon the law governing such cases.
Attention is called. i'm the opinion deliy-
cred by the board, to the fact that
errors were discovered i'm almost all the
wards, and also that both Mr.. West and
Mr.. CoVell were seated at the counting
table beside the members OF the board
during the official count.
In summing up the case the board
calls attention TO the judicial opinion
given in the case of Kneass, Parsons,
y. 605. The court says: I'VE then re-
fused to Mr.. Deal a recount OF all the
ballot boxes of the city and county be-
cause. although he complained of gem
eral errors in the count of all, he desig-
mated particulars in none We refused
this apparently reasonable request
from "a deep sense or the danger that
would follow II we should too readily
accede 10 such plausible acquisitions.
We saw that If we once acquiesced in
general allegations of error in the count
we would be bound by the result OF such
a count. and that thus we might be
made the instrument OF defeating the
popular will by affording convenient
means of accomplishing il.
We know we We're bound TO order
an examination of the boxes and a re-
count OF the ballots. whenever the re-
turn of particular district was as
sailed for causes stated, with sufficient
precision TO induce us to en-
tertain a complaint preferred. Against
II we felt that further than that IL
would be unwise To go. and on that
ground our foot was placed, from which
1t never since has been nor ever will be
moved A"

CORBETT The FAVORITE.
Wagers Of 100 TO 80 Made That
He Will Defeat Tom Sharkey.
Sporting Men From All Parts Of Country
Gather 10 Witness Contest.

New York, Nov. 22.--Today this city
is the rendezvous OF thousands OF men
closely identified with sports Of every
kind. and pugilism in particular, who
have come from all over the United
States to watch James j. Corbett and
Thomas Sharkey settle their fistic ar
gument before the Lenox Athletic club
tonight. The uptown hotels are
thronged with visitors. and the trains
which arrived at the several depots all
the morning brought contingents OF
sporting men who arc all anxious TO
see the big fellows don the gloves.
No such gathering Of the followers of
fights has ever before been seen in New
York. Corbett still holds his position
as favorite I'm the betting, the Sharkey
people getting 100 To so for their money
whenever a wager Is made.
Both pugilists are resting today, Cor
bett at his residence I'm this city and
Sharkey at his training quarters in
South Brooklyn. The reports from both
quarters announce the men 10 be in
splendid physical condition. Each side
seems TO think it's man invincible, but
the general opinion favors Corbett, who
in the past has shown himself 10 be
the cleverer. Sharkey's rugged frame
can withstand a great deal Of punish
ment, but the question which puzzles
the bettors and others interest Is: Can
Sharkey have improved sufficiently to
land on such a ring general and scien-
tihc boxer as Corbett?
Many claim that Sharkey has i'm
proved wonderfully, and none OF them
is more confident OF the sailors chances
of victory than his manager and
trainer, Tom O'Rourke. who says: He
has learned a great deal and is vastly
improved. He was never I'm such splen-
did shape, and / am confident he will
win -
