COURT DENIES A BALLOT MOTION.

Justice Blur denied yesterday the motion
of William NJ. Bennett, chairman of the
Roosevelt executive committee. TO direct
the Board Of Elections TO place the names
Of the candidates for delegates 10 the Pres
dental convention at the top Of the ballot
for the primary election to be held on
March 26. Justice Blur said that while the
Board OF Elections had a certain amount
OF discretion in the matter of arranging the
ballots 1t had no right to place the Presi-
dentiaf delegates at the top of the ballot.
The ballot will therefore have at the top
the names of the delegates for the state
convention. This applies also TO the Demo-
cratic ballots.
