LEGAL BALLOTS.
Supreme Court Decides On Some
Wrong Initial.

The supreme court Wednesday
handed down an election decision
that will be of interest to electors
generally and particularly so to
those concerned in the DeGaw-
Fitzsimmons affair in Detroit.
Washburn Horning and James Green
were respectively the Republican
and Democratic candidates for
treasurer OF Saginaw county at the
recent election. On the face of the
returns Horning had a majority.
Green was granted recount, the
question involved being the DISPOSE
ton Of the votes of Chesaning town
ship. On the recount, the canvas
scrs rejected 239 ballots, III Of
which were cast for Horning and GO
for Green, because the initials OF the
inspector appeared in the lower
right hand corner instead OF in the
upper right hand corner, as provid
ed by the statute. The canvassers
held this to be Distinguishing
mark. Green s counsel claimed that
the requirement as to the position
Of the initials is mandatory and not
merely directory.
The rejection OF these votes gave
! the election to Green, and Horning
obtained from the circuit court a
mandamus directing the canvassing
board to reconvene and recount the
ballots cast in Chesaning township
including the rejected ones. Green
carried the case to the supreme
court, which has affirmed the action
of the court below, thus giving the
Office to Horning.
In its unanimous opinion the court
says that the record does not dis
close that either the electors or in
spectors knew any mistake had been
made in marking. When one of the
ballots was folded it could not be
told that it was not marked in the
upper left hand corner. There was
nothing to indicate that there was
any wrong intended by anyone in
connection with the transaction.
The court declares that there is
no doubt that the purpose Of the
statute is to secure fair impress
sion OF the will of the electors, by
secret ballot, uninfluenccd by
bribery, corruption or fraud. The
disfranchsement of whole precincts
by reason of an honest mistake on
the part of the election officers, is
declared to be inconsistent with this
purpose. So much of the statute as
requires the initials to be Endorsed
is held to be mandatory, but the
opinion is expressed that the re-
requirement as to the particular
place the initials shall appear is
merely directory.

the guns could have been TRANSPORTED
ON the back of 81 mule, or, in an ex-
tremity, could have been carried by

PRAISE FOR HEROES.
Gen. Miles was visibly affected by
the loss sustained before Santiago yes
terday, though he said that life must
be sacrificed in any great military un-
dertaking. He spoke of the late Capt.
Capron, one Of the killed, as a most
efficient and valuable officer. And the
general did not forget the privates,
many Of whom he personally knew, es-
pecially among the regulars Gen. Miles
was pleased with the result Of the en-
gagement. He says it demonstrates the
ability Of the American troops to cope
with the enemy.
SIEGE GUNS ARE NEEDED.
Gen. Miles and the department are
considerably annoyed over the loss Of
the lighter that was to have been used
by Gen. Shafter in unloading and get
ting ashore the big siege guns. Gen.
Miles says there will be need for those
big guns before Santiago is taken. The
department will use every effort to sup
ply the deficiency promptly.

1t Is given out today that Gen. Miles
will go to Tampa at an early date and
will accompany the reinforcements to
Santiago. He hopes to be able to swell
the number of troops to be sent to Cuba
at once to $4,000. Gen. Miles is said to
have expressed the belief that by the
time the Tampa expedition reaches
Santiago that city will have been cap
tured by Gen. Shafter. Gen. Miles ex-
poets to reach Tampa Monday morn
ing. The total strength of Gen. Cop
pingers command Is above $1,000 men.
AS many Of these as transports at
hand will carry will, it Is said, be taken
with the expedition that Gen. Miles will
accompany to Cuba.
OFFICIALS PUZZLED.
War department officials are puzzled
because there has been no reference in
reports thus far received from Santiago
of what was done with the automatic
machine guns with which the soldiers
were supplied when they left Tampa.
The rough riders had two Of these little
guns that weigh scarcely thirty pounds,
but are said to be most effective weap-
ons. Their absence from reports Of the
engagement cannot be explained in the
loss Of the lighter, which Gen. Shafter
took with the expedition to Cuba, as

MADRID, June 25.-The Spanish YER
sion Of the American operations in
Cuba received from official sources at
Havana says Rear Admiral Sampson
conferred during the week with the in
surgent leaders, Calixto Garcia, Rabi
and Sebecco, with the object of con-
centrating large force of insurgents
at landing place. Sebecco met an
American vessel at Bayamto received
1000 rifles and quantity of ammuni-

Then they attempted join Castillo at
Baturnao, but the Spaniards prevent
ed them, having organized such a per-
feet defense between Manzanillo and
Santiago that the rebels did not dare
to risk serious engagement with the
Spaniards.'
Continuing, the official report says
the insurgents expected that the point
of Decentralization of the Americans
would be devoid of defences"
Then a singular explanation is made

sert that they have checked the

the Spanish regulars, resulting in
victory for the American army. de-
spite the great disparity in the forces
engaged, all in favor of the Spaniards.
There was a busy scene at the war de-
partment throughout the day. there
being natural anxiety on the part
Of army officers and friends Of the SOL
oilers at the front to learn later details
OF the engagement near Santiago city.
There was little to be ascertained at
the war department, however, that had
not been given In the first dispatches,
and many went away disappointed.
GEN. SHAFTER HEARD FROM.
Later in the day advices were re-
cefved from Gen. Shafter, but they
were meager, simply confirming what
was already known, and making the
news Of battle official What Gen.
Shafter placed especial stress upon
was the need of lighter, with which
to get ashore the big siege guns and
ordnance. The telegram merely stated
that the lighter taken with the expedi-
ton had been lost, and the department
acted promptly on Gen. Skaters sug-
gestfon, wiring Gen. Coppinger, at
Tampa, to send on to Gen. Shafter the
first lighter he could secure in that
vicinity. 1t will likely be sent with the
first expedition to leave Tampa for
Santiago. Six thousand men, COM
prising the command Of Brig. Gen.
Snyder, the Third division of the First
army corps, are expected to depart from
Tampa within the next three days.
Gen. Henry's division will get under
way about the same time, so that
within brief period Gen. Shafter will
have been reinforced by from $4,000 to
$4,000 men. The war department does
not propose to take any chances of
reverses in Santiago, which it is now
said will be the basis for operations in
Cuba Lieut.. Joyce, so 1t is given out
on good authority, has informed the
department. that the Spanish forces in
eastern Cuba number fully $1,000 men.
Of this number $4,000 are in Santiago
and the remainder at Manzanillo. The
Americans and Cubans together will
look after the Spaniards in Santiago,
while the insurgents alone will prevent
