Rush Applies for
Right to Inspect
Primary Ballots
Has Reason to Believe He
Was Nominated. He
Declares

The Honest Ballot Association, in
behalf of Thomas E. Rush. Surveyor OF
the Port and candidate in the recent
Democratic primaries for the nomina-
tion of Justice Of the Supreme Court
applied to Justice Whitaker yesterday
for an order permitting an inspection
of the primary ballots cast. Henry De
Forest Baldwin, counsel for the asso-
citation, told the court that numerous
discrepancies and errors had been dis
covered since the primaries and that
an inspection might disclose further
regularities, and. possibly. the nomi
nation of Mr. Rush.
On the face of the returns John V.
McAvoy, Tammany candidate. received
O,56S, and Rush. who resigned his
Tammany leadership and ran indepen-
IDENTIFY, 17,44S votes. Mr. Baldwin said
that in The Bronx Borough an appar-
ent discrepancy of | 900 votes had been
found. and that in the same borough
2.3l9 ballots had been protested and
not counted. which, il was argued, wa
against the interests of Rush.
Herbert Limberg, who appeared for
Justice McAvoy. remarked that he
thought it strange that the Honest Bal
lot Association should concern itself
only over alleged frauds at the Demo
cratic primaries and remain inactive
over alleged frauds at the Republican
primaries in the interest of Mayor
Mitchell.
Justice Whitaker reserved decision
and asked the attorneys TO file briefs
to-day.

Is Primary Inspectors
Indicted; Expect More
To Be Named To-day

Sixteen new indictments against cleo
ton inspectors, charging them with
fraud in making returns the Mitchell
Bennett primary results, were handed
up 70 Judge Mulqueen in General Ses-
sIonG yesterday. Thus far there have
heen forty-two indictments of Repub-
lican and Democratic primary in
spectors.
1t was predicted in the Criminal
Courts Building last night that large
number of additional indictments would
be returned to-day. Among them. u
was said. will be true bills against a
prominent member Of the Republican
County Committee and his young son.
who Is an election captain in Harlem
district.
The evidence against these two men,
it is said, shows that the father at
tempted 10 have his son put in as bal
lot counter in place of the Republican
chairman, but the plan failed because
the Democratic chairman in the polling
place objected. II is alleged that the
son remained, however, counted the bal
lots and made the entries on the result
sheet, but did hot sign his name.
According to Assistant District At
torneys Olcott and Wallace. who are in
charge of the investigation. the recount
showed that Mr. Bennett had been de-
prived of thirteen ballots in this cleo
ton district. The principal witnesses
against the county committeeman and
mis- son were the Democratic chairman
and the policeman stationed at the
poll.
Three of the four inspectors who
were indicted on Monday SURRENDERED
yesterday and were released in $4,000

were set to work inspecting the hotel
registers. Alexander p. McCauley was
the only person to be found who reg
istered from Toronto. and was ar
rested. Three charges OF forgery
against him were dismissed there.
Then he was indicted here and extra
dited.
In New York Mr.. McCauley was pos
lively identified by statesmen as the
man who had swindled them. De-
frauded storekeepers were brought
from Chicago. and they declared that
McCauley did not resemble the man
who had defrauded them. District At
torney Swami was beset on both sides
by the compliments here and by Nc
Cauleys friends in Toronto, who came
here and positively identified him and
furnished afidavits for an abb. Mr..
Swami assigned Assistant District At
.ornev Kilroe TO investigate. Mr. Kill
roe went TO Canada, Chicago and st.
Louis.
Meanwhile, Mr.. McCauley, who was
spending his own money hiring de
tectives TO find the real christmas"
Keough. fell i'll in the Hotel Manhattan.
While ne was in bed word came from
Chicago that more forged checks bear
ing the name ~. II. Paget' were being
passed in Chicago.
This circumstance caused District
Attorney Swami to go before Judge Nc
Intyre and ask for a dismissal Of the
indictments against Mr. McCauley.
Among the affidavits was one which
showed that the accused man, accom-
panied by his counsel, had gone 10
Brooks Brothers and had tried on sew
eral suits, size 40, and that none of
them fitted him. Kilroe told the court
that he had examined more than forty
witnesses, all of whom furnished evil
dence showing that McCauley could not
have been in New York on the day the
forged checks were passed.
Through an apparently honest mis-
take this defendant has suffered great
financial damage and his reputation
and good name have been irreparably
injured" said Mr.. Kilroe. "No one
can possibly regret this more than the
District Attorney of this county, who
now moves to do all that he can TO
make reparation TO Mr.. McCauley."
