that they smootbed with lingering
fondness. In the convention itself

stranger several times around the same

him believe that he had ridden for
miles. they had not the slightest timid-

Colonel Pete Hepburn got in cab

When he descended he asked the fare.

for?" asked Uncle Pete

HAVANA, April 22,-Already there has
been an attempted electoral fraud although
the electoral period has just commenced.
On Monday evening Mayor Cardenas
attempted 10 secure copies Of the electoral
lists which, compiled from the caucus re-
turns, contain thenames OF all the electors.
This was blocked by the authorities, Last
night several employees who are under the
supervision OF the Mayor we're put In pos
session Of theAists for the purpose Of pub
AAelypestlnR them-hey took the lsta 20 a
certain house. where they made copies Of
them instead Of posting them.
The secret police discovered what was
being done and arrested the men. Five OF
P. them we're detained pending an investiga-
ton. which resulted In their release this
afternoon, there being a question as TO the
| criminallty Of their act, The lists were
finally posted to-day.
The significance Of the affair is not in its
~orlminality, but in the effort TO surrepti-
| tlously gain an advantage. and there is no
question that the perpetrators knew they
we're not playing fair, Mayor Cardenas lea
Conservative,
The performance lie somewhat discourage
ing after the American efforts 10 force clean
politics. However, II is not thought there
will be actual frauds In the elections, because
a strict supervision will be exercised, and
under the new laws frauds will be severely
punished,
Gov. Magoon has signed a decree appoint
ing central and provincial electoral boards.
The central board, which will supervise
the elections from Havana, consists, Of
the Chief Justice Of the Supreme Cotrt,
the senior justice Of the Audiencia Of Havana
and DR.. Hernandez and DR.. Averhoh. Law
professors at the university. These APP
p~ointees are non-political. The board also
contains wo representatives Of each politi-
cal party, making the total membership
ten. Col. Crowder Of tho Judge Advocate
Generals department will supervise the
boards.
This Is the first distinct step toward the
establishment Of the republic, The
Miguclista faction Of the Liberal party
continues to cry that the Government
fayors Alfredo Zayas. the leader Of the
opposing faction, for the Presidency. Many
persons would not be surprised II the
Miguelistas refuse to vote. particularly
If they see that Zayss Is certain 10 win.
Then they will raise the cry of fraud, as was
done at the last election Of Tomas Estrada
Palma. Such a development, however, can
only occur months hence.
