NEW YORK ELECTION CONTEST
Hearst Supporters Secure Courts Order
for Tally Lists,

Counsel for the Municipal Ownership
League, in New York, yesterday obtained
from Justice Amend, in the supreme court
an order directing County Clerk Hamilton
to produce before the board Of county can
vassers the original tally sheets in his
custody at their meeting today or, in de-
fault of so doing, to show cause today why
he should not do so.
Justice Amend also restrained the board
of county canvassers from taking any ac-
votes until the question as to the produc-
ton of the tally sheets had been decided
1t was claimed by counsel that the tally
sheets were necessary in order that the
vote might be properly canvassed.
A similar order was obtained from Justice
Diekey in Brooklyn against the canvassers
of Queens county.
The aldermen of the greater city met
yesterday in their respective boroughs and
organized themselves into county boards OF
canvassers. Twenty-nine democrats and
eight republicans and fusionists made VI
the aldermanic board of canvassers foI
New York county.
The board decided that the votes OF
twenty-three of its thirty-SeVen members
shall be required to adopt any resolution
1t was also decided that three members
shall constitute a quorum for contests and
comparisons. This action was portesteo
by Henry Yonge, counsel for w. r. Hearst
The board adjourned until tomorrow with.
out acting on the protest.
Attorney General Mayer will appear be-
fore the grand jury again today and will
ask for a large number of additional in
dictments charging fraud in the election
dence before the grand jury will take all OF
the present week.

DEMANDS OF UNION LABOR.
Features of the Report of the Fedora
ton Council.

A determined stand was taken for the
enforcement to the letter of the Chinese ex-
cluslon laws of the country, the legalizng
of the eight-hour workday in all work of
the government, the abolition of convict
labor where 1t completes with union man
ufactured goods, and the renewal of the
agitation for the alteration of the injunc-
uon laws of the country, by the executive
council of the American Fedora atom in its
annual report submitted at yesterdays SEES
sion of the convention at Pittsburg.
The report took the national administra-
ton to task for its failure to enforce the
eight-hour law in all government work. and
plea was made for every state federation
organization to Immediately institute a
campaign for the establishment in their re-
spective states of the eight-hour law.
A popular chord was struck when First
Vice President James Duncan, who was
reading the report, made a ringing appeal
for equal elections for women. The report
cited the four states in the Union which
now grant equal rights to the women and
predicted the publication of the ballot when
universal suffrage granted.
The seating Of G. p. Shea, president of
the Transfers Union of Chicago, as a DEL
egate yesterday is looked upon by the In
ternatonal Association of Steam Filters as
big card for them in their right for a
federation charter, Shea, who has been
joined by other delegates, will help them
in the convention.

Evidence.

Former Judge Wing, counsel for Mrs.

land yesterday that an application for a
writ OF certioFari is now being prepared and
will be submitted TO the Supreme Court of
the United States with a view of obtaining
Il review of Mrs. Chadwicks case before
that tribunal
The Supreme Court will be asked TO con-
slider Mrs. Chadwick's case on the general
ground that errors were made In her trial
before the United States district court and
also in the United States circuit court of ap-
peals at Cincinnati.
District Attorney Sullivan, who p-osecut-
ed the case against Mrs. Chadwick on be-
half of the government, was apparently not
surprised when he learned yesterday after
noon that the defense would file an applica-
ton with the United States Supreme Court
for writ of certiorari. Asked of the filing
of the application would in itself cause a
stay of execution, Mr.. Sullivan said he
thought not.
LAS soon as the mandate of the court of
appeals is filed 1t will become the duty
OF the United States marshal to remove
Mrs. Chadwick to the penitentiary," said
the district attorney. "If the Supreme

vious to the election was employed as a
