STARTLING RESULTS.
Board of canvassers Discover Some
Rather Queer Proceedings.

New York. Nov. 1s.-In the thir
zenith election district of the First
assembly district the tally sheet showed
that seventy-nine votes were missing
from the published count. 1t was not
stated for which candidate these I'M
counted ballots had been cast. The
board Of canvassers allowed no one
but themselves TO handle the tally
sheets. Counsel for both Mr.. Hearst
and Mayor Mcclellan were allowed to
read all the sheets without touching
them. Comparisons were confined to
the votes cast for mayor. comptroller
and president of the board of alder
men.
In one election district of Queens
county the board of canvassers found
that Mayor Mcclellan received 200
votes less than he should have had.
One election district, the twelfth. Jf
the Second assembly district in which
william T. Jerome was not credited
with single vote. was discovered du-
ring the investigation. According to
the tally sheet of this district Mr.. Je-
rome received fifty-seven votes, but
he was credited with none.
The board had decided not to include
the Jerome votes in canvass. but his
attorney requested that the office of
district attorney be included, and Sc
cured an order from the supreme court
to show cause why this should not he
done.
A uprising mistake was found in
the Nineteenth election district of the
Second assembly district. The inspect
ors' returns in this district had credited
no votes to Ford. the Municipal own
ership League candidate for comptro
er. while Cavanaugh. Socialist candi-
date. received sixty-two votes. The
tally sheets showed that ne should have
received the sixty-two ballots credited
to Cavanaugh. while the Socialist can
didate received none.
