PEST UNDER CONTROL.

Bunch, Nov. 7.-(SpeciaD-The
smallpox at this place seems to be

broke out in any other families. The
families under quarantine are as fol-
lows: Levi Smith, John Strunk, Aaron

In the Sixth Ward.

The contest arises over the vote in
the sixth ward, where, according to
the statement of the officials above re-
ferred to, Mr.. Dana received 271 votes,
Mr.. Chisman 222 and Mr.. Warren, the
socialist candidate, 25 votes. These
figures are shown on the envelope in
which the book for the county board is
enclosed, and they also appear in writ
ing in the book which is held by the
township clerk. In this book, however,
in the space where the vote is tailed,
only 261 TALES appear to the credit
of Mr.. Dana, making difference OF
ten votes in the totals. The question
which arises is: (Which of the two
is right, the '271' which the five cleo
ton officials, three democrats and two
republicans say is correct, or the '261'
which is given by the tally sheet in
the one book?"

CHISMAN CLAIMS IT
SAYS He is Elected Treasurer by
Four Votes.
A "MlX-UP" in THE SIXTH WARD
Democrats Claim That But 261 Votes
Were Cast for r. P. Dana, Republi-
can, While the Boards Returns
Show 271 to His Credit.

Democracy in Wapello county is
making claims today to the effect that
d. E. Chisman and not R. P. Dana, IS
entitled to the office of county treasur-
err as a result of the election held
Tuesday. AS was stated yesterday
Dana was elected by six votes accord
ing to the statements of the election
officials, as they appear on the books
handed to the township clerk. The
duplicate books, which go to the board
of supervisors, have not, OF course,
been opened, and will not be until the
board convenes for the official canvas
of the votes.
The matter hinges on one point,
which is at issue between two men &C,
cording to their statements made to a
Courier reporter. There are 521 men
who voted in the sixth ward. Six bal
lots were mutilated, and one version
of the affair is that three good ballots
were given in exchange for three OF
these mutilated ones, SO that these
three were voted and were valid. This
would make SIS votes cast, which is
the number cast for Mr.. Dana accord
| ing to the returns certified to as cor
rect by the election officials. In oppo
sition to this statement is the one thai
no good ballots were given in exchange
for mutilated ones, so that the tota
number of valid ballots could be bu
SIS. R: P. Dana is authority for thu
first statement, and Stephen Barnes
alderman from the sixth ward is au
thority for the contradiction.

Rival Claims.

Mr.. Chisman, the democratic candi
date, claims that the tailed count
should be the one by which the cleo
ton is decided, while Mr.. Dana sees
no reason for not accepting the figures
which the five election officials sub
scribe to as correct and true.
Puzzlers.
A circumstance which aids in con-
fusing the minds of those who try to
solve the puzzle is the odd manner in
which the tally was made in the book
which is held by the township clerk.
There were 292 straight republican
votes. Instead Of putting this num-
Der, 1902" in the column provided for
it on the tally sheet and then starting
the tally Independent from this, in the
manner prescribed, the clerk who
made up the book in question first
made the 202 marks indicating the
straight tickets, then began his tally
from that number. That is the case if
there were,as the democrats claim only
261 votes cast for Dana. However, if
there were 271 votes, it is altogether
probable that the clerk made 1872
marks thinking he had 202.
The way he should have done is to
put the number representing the
straight ballots in one column, and
the number of votes arrived at by the
tally of the scratched ballots in an
other column, then added the two to-
gether for the total number. The
straight ballots should not have been
counted by tallies.

BradStreet'S on Trade.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1s-Bradstreet's tO-mOrrow

NEW YORK, Oct 1S.-Bradstreets tomorrow
will say:
Among the notable features brought out in
trade dispatches to Bradstreet's this week are
the reports of stimulated retail trade, due to
cooler settled weather and advices of continued
activity in all leading Industrial lines, notably
iron and Steel shoes and leather, coal, lumber,
jewelry and cotton and woolen goods The
shipments of products of these industries and
of groceries to consuming sections continue
heavy and are accompanied by reports of de-
lays due to the scarcity of cars. Another one
of those slight upward swings in prices of sta
pies, so numerous of late has also occurred by
which the general level of cereals, raw cotton,
dairy products and lake copper has been raised
Clearings have expanded because of an eXten-
sion of interest in the security markets, but
also because of continued good collections
which, in turn, have induced rather more ease
in money rates at leading markets. Advices
from the South are still of backward cotton
crop movement, hampering fall demand and COL
lections, but even here there has been an i'm
provement noted this week
Iron and steel consumption continue fully
equal ana IN some cases, in excess OF proouc-
tions. Features this week have been the sale
by merchant furnaces in the Pittsburg district
of 75,COO tons of Bessemer pigiron to leading
interests at from SIS % to SIS so ton at VAL
ley furnaces. Steel billets have continued scarce
and are practically unobtainable for prompt de-
livery, though $27 and SIS per ton is offered,
against the nominal quotation of $26 for dis
tant delivery; Pigron stocks in the Central
Orders for fully 1000, 600 tons of rails for next
years delivery have been booked, although the
principal consuming interest has not yet ap-
portioned its business, which is expected to ex-
ceed 165, COO tons. Plates, bars and sheets and
structural material are all active, but iron bars
are reported easier. Tin-plate mills are catch
ing up with their orders and cut is reported
in the price of wire nails.
Railroads are in the market for cars and one
Western system has bought 20G0 this week
Export business in iron and steel is not prom
Using.
Cooler weather and fear of frosts, coupled
with good reports from the print cloth industry,
have stimulated raw cotton and this in turn
leading bleached cottons Woolen goods are
rather quiet as regards demand, but the
mills are busy on heavy-weights and when these
are out of the way a large volume of orders for
spring weights guarantees continued activity.
Wool is steady and firm with a large con-
sumption progressing.
Failures in the United States number 1885, as
against 113 last week, 2S3 this week year ago,
221 in 1899 and 213 in 1898.
