Clarence J. Shearn, Mr.. Hearst's chief

at the figures today. He said that they

accountants. These reports showed Mr..
Shearn said. that there was net change in
Mr.. Hearst's favor of 1852 on the various
court orders.
1T would appear to u.s." said Mr.. Shearn,
''as though all of the court orders had not
been complied with l have started an in
vestigation and comparison of the figures,
and unless we find that there is mistake
on our part, else that this Hearst gain
was offset by some gains for Mcclellan not
claimed by the latterS own lawyers, we
will go into court and ask for mandamus
requiring the canvassers to reconvene and
correct errors. This, however, will not de-
lay the issue of any certificates
Mr.. Shearn said that ne had not aban-
doned the program announced.
I'VE intend TO ask the legislature said
he, for bill authorizing the opening of
the ballot boxes and giving thereby a
chance to inspect the ballots. This would
lessen the time which quo warranto pro-

THE COREY RUMPUs.
Wife Will Not Agree to Any
Reconciliation

Mrs. Corey will see her husband when
she goes to New York the first of next
week. but she is not going there for the
purpose of discussing any plan that NAV
lead to a reconciliation of their troubles
Mrs Corey will listen to no proposal for a
compromise with the object to bring her
back. to Mr.. Corey's household again"
This statement was made last evening by
a relative of w. Ellis Corey, president of
the United States Steel Corporation. at
Pittsburg. in reply to the reports that the
Corey family trouble may be reconciled
next week, when Mrs. Corey goes to New
York.
Mrs. Corey is with her another, Mrs.
Frank Campbell. of 7516 Ormond street,
SwissYale During her visit here she has
discussed her family affairs with her rela-
tives and number of her intimate friends.
and she has given them all to understand
that, whatever course she shall decide upon
for the future, she will not consent to
reconciliation.
Mrs. Corey has. confided to several of her
friends that her husband has requested an
interview with her when she reaches New
York, but just what the purpose of this
interview is it is said that even Mrs Corey
does not fully know.
1t is believed by some of Mr. Corey s
friends that, acting under the advice of
Charles NJ. Schwab and others. he is now
anxious to adjust matters so that the name
of Mabelle Gilman, the actress which
rumor associates with the troubled marital
relations of the Coreys, will be forever
buried. 1t is declared, however, that if
this is Mr.. Corey's intention he will find
that the plan will fail.
1t is asserted that Mrs. Corey. under GER
tain conditions, would agree not to institute
divorce proceedings for the present, but her
friends declare that she has asserted that
under no conditions would she agree to live
with her husband.
Some insist that Mr. Corey desires to con-
fer with his wife concerning the proposed
divorce proceedings and that he will sub
init no proposition whatever looking toward
a reconciliation.

Much excitement has been caused at

DO You Understand the

But thousands OF those freight
