IN last night may be Judged from inc
ro)lpwinr extract from the Evening Post,

S%proffrrs OF support have been coming

Stock Market Sensitive.
The stock market showed some sensl-
tIyeness to the Hearst vote, and to"the
fact that the Municipal Ownership
League will have representation on the
hoard Of estimate and npportionment.
which controls municipal franchises.
Stocks of several Of the local corpora

X one OF the Wall Street tickers made
the statement that there seemed little
doubt thu 1.-THE politicians were genuinely
frightened by the closeness of the cleo
ton and Mr.. IIearsis demand for re-
count.
N Superintendent of Elections Morgan
said tonight tina t while doubtless many
Illegal votes were cast, he would express
no opinion on the contention made by the
Municipal Ownership League managers
that they amounted to 5000. He had
made, he said, many arrests. but only
thirty of the prisoners were held by the
magistrates.
Acknowledgement Mayer said that he
had Information that Illegal votes vera
cast in several assembly districts. In
any event, however, said the Attorney
General, even should we discover thou
sands of cases Of Illegal voting, it would
not affect the count, for the reason that
the ballots cannot be deducted. So far
us we are concerned, our jurisdiction
ends with the prosecution Of the crlml-
rails where the crime of illegal voting
has been committed"
