GREAT GAINS
FOR HEARST.
Many Defective Ballots Counted
for Mayor Mcclellan Marked
for Identification.

NEW YORK, Dec. Proofs of the
election frauds alleged by William Ran
dolph Hearst in the mayoralty election
came with the opening of the first bal
lot boxes here.
In a recount of the first four election
districts Mr.. Hearst made an uncon-
tested gain of seventeen votes.
This is an average of slightly over
four votes to district, and if the aver
age is maintained through the 1,700>d dis
tricts in which sufficient evidence of ir-
regularitics has been collected to insure
the opening of the ballot boxes the cleo
ton of William Randolph Hearst as
mayor is said to be assured.
These are but the unconteSted gains.
III addition there are flfty-two more
votes for Mayor Mcclellan void under
the ruling of Justice Giegerich because
marked for identification. Oh which
counsel for Mr.. Hearst will ask the APP
pelate division to make a definite rul-
ing
In the first box opened net gain of
seven votes for Mr.. Hearst was record
ed by correction of the returns OH
spit ballots.
Again in another box the split ballot
gave Mr. Mcclellan four more votes
than he was entitled to, and once more
in the third box the split vote was sc
counted rs to deprive Mr.. Hearst of six
ballots to which he was entitled.
Serious as were the inroads made on
Mr.. Hearst's vote by the manipulation
of the split ballot. an error" that ap'
peared with such regularity as finally
to be regarded as sinister and signifi-
cant, an even greater method of fraud
was disclosed in the deliberate manner
in which clearly void ballots We're
counted.
Ballots plainly marked for Identified
ton. so fragrant as to leave no doubt of
the intent of the voter, turned up time
after time rs the inspectors turned over
the votes during the count. They We're
marked with loops. stars, double cross
es and other fantastic markings.
All had been passed along to swell
Mr.. McClellans total. The Hearst
watchers kept tally of them as they
passed and at the close of the first day
of the recount had il net total of fifty
two ballots, which on the recent ruling
of Justice Giegerich will have to be
cast out in the final adjudication.
Clarence j. Shearn, chief counsel for
Mr.. Hearst, said:
''The examination of the first ballot
box sustains our contention that there
was fraud in the count.
"From now on the question becomes
one not as to whether or no there was
fraud in the count, but how extensive
was the fraud"

ST. PETERSBi l(G, Dec, ,. - The
ear has signed a manifesto abolishing
martial law in Poland
At LODI, Poland, many foreign own
ers of factories have paid off their
workmen, shut up the factories and de-
parted from the country, leaving their
property to the care of the authorities.
The delivery of all mail matter in st.
Petersburg has ceased.
The girl telegraph operators were

Great excitement has been caused by
an uncontirmed rumor that grand

All the telegraphers of Finland have
struck. The railroad telegraphers have
refused to transmit messages to the
czar.
Fear is expressed at the capital that

utterly unable TO find weapon to
fight the passive revolution and is
hesitating, hoping that the tide will
somewhat subside and permit the re-

Premier Witte refuses to consent to
the former, although the court officers

for it.
An official statement is made that
none of the Scvastopol mutineers will
be executed.
The crisis continues. The telegraph
tie-up Throughout Russia is practically
complete, and the government does not
know what is happening in the interior
of the empire.
There are many indications that
financial disaster will overtake Russia
shortly. There are no buyers on the
St Petersburg bourse and it is abso-
lutely impossible to sell Russian bonds.
1t is reported that the government
intends to mobilize all the Cossacks in
the empire, who number 100000.

CREDIT AND SETTLEMENT.

The most important points
in Judging a mans credit;
are first, his good name;
second, his ability to pay;
and third, the manner in
which he does pay.
You may ask how these
relate to you? In this way;
in order for us to buy as
low as any yard; get our
stock shipped as quick, and
receive the best of its kind;
our credit has to be good.
So is it with you. If you
are not getting the service,
stock that your good credit
demand; wouldn't it be a
good idea to try us. We
are bound to keep our credit
good: First, on account of
giving Our trade better ser
vice; and second, resulting
partly from the first; more
business and consequently
more profits.

was badly burned about the face and
hands, the right hand the worst. He
dressed the burns and Coleman was
removed to the city hospital. He will
probably recover, but there is danger
of pneumonia setting in after severe
burns, especially so since Coleman
