Fraud is Claimed.

New York Nov. S.-The Herald says:
| While the republicans admitted that
Perez NJ. Stewart had received the great
i er number of votes in the nineteenth
assembly district they unanimously de-
clared that Robert Mazet would again
occupy his seat in the assembly. Stew

of alleged fraudulent votes cast in the
district for the Tammany hall ticket t.
1t was announced that Mr.. Mazet would
make a contest and there was ample evi-
dence to Justify republican legislature
in throwing out more tnan 400 votes,
which were cast against him. This re-

night before the figures became known.
The fight mad been so bitter that the
small plurality was held to be INSULT

strange feature of the fight Is that in the
democratic districts Stewart has run be-
hind while in republican districts MaZet
has run behind his. MaZet's losses We're
