MAY LEAD TO BLOOD

NEW YORK. Feb. 14-The fight over
the office of sheriff of Hamilton county,
in the heart of the Adirondacks. has de-

cording to a Herald dispatch from Sara
toga.
AT the election last November, Locke,
Democrat, was declared elected by the
board of supervisors, but Kathan the Re
publican candidate, carried the matter to
the courts, charging frauds and irregular
tiles, and the supreme court decided In
his favor.
Meanwhile Locke had taken possession
of the office. including the courthouse and
Jail, and refused to obey the order of the
court and surrender to his rival.
Both claimants organized forces to Sc
cure the prize and Locke has, it is report
ed fortified himself I'M the county jail,
declaring the decision was wrong. and
will be reversed, and he does not propose
to give UP until the case has been deter
mined by the court of last resort.
Meantime the country. which is inacces-
sible by railroads, is buried deep in snow,
and there are fears that trouble may be
precipitated before the state authorities
can intervene to enforce the decision OF
the court. ~
