TEN INDICTMENTS.
Tammany Men CHARGE Frauds on Part
of Hearst Supporters.

OF rledTot ouPPOEhSiS'
New York, Nov. 13.-Ten indictments
for violations of the election law and
two for assaults committed at the polls
at the election last Tuesday have been
drawn up by the grand jury.
The situation was described by Mr..
Hearst as follows: THE law commit
tee has discovered some yer amazing
things and the deeper we go into this
thing. the uglier It looks. We have evil
dence against twelve district lealers
and l am confident that we shall send
two or three OF them 10 prison. l am
Just as much interested in the CONNER
cial prosecution OF thise case as ! am
in the recount. In this case IL makes
no difference whether 7 am declared
elected or not. in comparison with the
greater duty of sending criminals TO
Jail. 1t was for this purpose" Mr.
Hearst added. "and TO strengthen the
evidence against a certain district lead
er. that I made the additional offer OF
$4,000 reward"
Here Mr.. Hearst said many letters
had been received by his managers
purpoTting to show that men from
Connecticut. Massachusetts and New
Jersey had come TO New York on elee-
ton day. and after voting fifteen or
more times for the Tammany ticket. for
which they received a five dollar note
each time, returned Il their homes.
President Voohis Of the board Of cleo
lions, said the talk about missing bal
lot boxes was foolish. The board he
said. knew how many boxes IT gave out
and So far as he knew. all that could
have come back here have been re-
ceived. He declared that the story
about ballot boxes being found In
North river is all false.
II was announced at Tammany Hall
that Tammany district captains have
secured evidence showing frauds by
Hesrst's supporters on election day.
Several leaders said that while a re-
count nigh lessen McClellan's vote.
the counter charges OF fraud which
they intend to bring against the Hearst
organization win likewise bring about
the lessening of the Hearst vote, and
that In this way an equal reduction will
be made I'm the vote. which will not
effect the result. An offer was made in
Wall street to bet $4,000 against $780,
900 that W. r. Hearst will be seated
as the next mayor OF New York.
Two ballot boxes were found in a
barber shop at 156 Third avenue. one
of them full OF half soiled and torn bal
lots and the other empty This bar
bershop was polling place Of the
first election district OF the Eighteenth
assembly district. which is the district
OF which Charles +. Murphy. head Of
Tammany Hall. Is the leader. Hearst
watchers found the two boxes Depu-
ties from State Superintendent of Flee
tions Morgsn's office took possession OF
the boxes.

Trial Justice in Georgia during the
reconstruction period. His first case
happened to bo one in which the de-
fendant asked for a trirl by jury.
When the testimony was all in and
the argument had been concluded,
the lawyers awaited for the Judge to
proceed with his instructions to the
jury. The justice seemed somewhat
embarrassed. Finally one of the
lawyers whispered to him and told it
was time to charge the jury.
Looking at the jury with grim
judicial air, the judge said:
"Gentlemen oh de jury, sense dis
is very small case, Til jes' charge
y'all dollar an a ha'f apiece"
