Many'Indicted
For Wholesale
Ballot Frauds
Election Board Officials
and Employees Accused
After Recount of Returns
by August Grand Jury
Few Arrested So Far
Changes in Favor of Smith
Charged; Socialist Candi-
dates the Chief Sufferers

More than a score of officials ana
employees of the Board of Elections
we're indicted by the August additional
grand jury before it adjourned a week
ago, it became known yesterday. They
are charged with ballot frauds.
Only few of the indicted men have
been arrested, because it has been
found that most Of them used fcti-
tious names. One specific instance of
this practice was the arrest of Patrick
Hardy" who was identified as Patrick
j. Harden, process server Of District
Attorney Swann's Office.
patrick Hardy" was indicted Janu-
ary Z, charged with mutilating ballots,
but it was Harden who pleaded not
Grain in General Sessions yesterday.
He was held in $1,000 bail. Harden
was Immediately suspended by District
Attorney Swami.
Socialists Chief Losers
A recount by the grand jury dis
closed that the frauds could not have
affected the result of the elections in
so far as the candidates robbed Of
votes were concerned.
Socialist candidates, however, we're
the chief losers. In the 9th Election
District of the 4th Assembly District
$50 votes cast for Theresa Malkiel, the
Socialist candidate for Assembly, were
scratched and credited to Samuel
Dickstein, the Fusion candidate. While
in the 10Th Election District of the
that all the votes cast for August
Claessens, the Socialist candidate for
Assembly, were credited to the Fusion
candidate.
Other frauds in both the 18th and
18th Assembly districts showed that
many votes cast for Governor Miller
were marked for Governor Smith.
Four Seized in One District
In the 18th Assembly District four
men have been indicted and arrested.
They are Austin McSweeney, Amos
Schwarbeil, Jacob Rubenfield and
Charles Cassonelli, all election Off
cials. They are charged with making
a false statement of the result of the
fed that former Governor Smith re-
ceived 571 votes, Governor Miller five
votes and Dudley Field Malone, the
Farmer-Labor candidate, one vote.
The correct count shows, according
to the Indictment, that Smith received
476 votes and that Miller and Malone
got more votes than they were credited
with.
Further allegations are that James
Kelly, the Democratic leader, who was
captain of the Tenth Election District
of the Seventeenth Assembly District,
made wager with the Republican
leader of the district that Miller would
only get nine votes. 1t is said that
the inspection of the ballots in this
district shows that on 1O9 ballots the
cross in front of the name Of Miller
was erased and cross marked in front
of the name of Smith.

Bedtime Stories
Hunger Makes Whitley Bold
BY Thornton W. Burgess
The timidest become most bold
when panched By hunger and by cold

A. Reddy Fox knows. He is by no means
the timidest of the people of the Green
meadows and the Green Forest, but he
IS one of the warest and he never
takes any needless risks. But some
times when hard pressed by hunger
Reddy becomes the boldest of the bold.
The same thing is true of others.
Since the coming of the snow Reddy
mad been having hard time to get
enough to eat to keep heat in his body.
he seldom knew what it was to have
a full stomach. The result was that
ne was often about Farmer Browns
nenyard even in broad daylight, hoping
Tor chance to catch one OF those fine
fat hens But Farmer Browns bov
kept those hens locked up at night and
in yard with high wire fence bv
day, for he had seen Reddy about and
knew just what Reddy was there for.
He was sorry for Reddy, but he
couldn't afford to let him have any
of those fat hens.
How Reddy did hate that wire fence!
ihere were those fat hens with nothing
octween them and him but that miser-
able wire netting. Day after day he
stole up behind the barn to look at
those fat hens and try TO think Of
some way to get one Of them ALWAYS
he hoped to find the gate left open.
But he never did. He felt sure he could
climb that wire fence, but he knew that
1t would be slow work and if he did
climb it and get inside he wouldn't
be able to climb out again in a hurry
with a fat hen in his mouth. Some
times ne was sorely tempted to try
1t, but his common sense ALWAYS pre-
vented any such foolish act.
One morning he was peeping around
the corner Of the barn Watching those
Tat hens. Farmer Browns bow had
just fed them and they were makiny

Messenger Says
Bandit Wore Gold
Teeth as Disguise
Victim of $l50,o00 Theft
Tells Whitman's Aid He
Has Found Gang Leader;
Arrests Are Expected

John Mckenzie, a messenger for the
Chemical National Bank, who was
robbed of $1,000 in currency and $144,-
900 in securities in Grand Street De-
cember 20, said yesterday he saw the
leader Of the three men who robbed
him Monday, ate at the same table
with him in a restaurant and trailed
him until he discovered his name and
address.
Mckenzie was a witness before Fred
assistant in the policy inquiry, the
holdup having been called to the at
tention of Mr. Whitman by Charles
Schneider, a private detective, who as
serted the police had interfered with
him in his work on the case Mr..
Groehl found no grounds for Schneid-
er's complaint but evinced considerable
interest in McKenzie's testimony.
According to Mckenzie, the leader of
the footpads was disguised in COM
plete set of gold teeth when the rob-
berry took place, though he discovered
only Monday that the glittering pan
cply was merely a disguise.
The luster of the teeth had not pre-
vented him from noting the other feat
ures Of the robber, he said, and his
gaze encountered the same features
Monday as he was passing a restaurant
on 125th Street. At that moment they
were wrestling with small steak, said
Mckenzie, and although it was obvious
that the teeth that went with the feat
ures were no limitations, Mckenzie
was sure he had found his man.
To make sure he entered the res
taurant and took seat at the same
table. AS the steak succumbed to his
neighbor's attack the explanation of
the gold teeth he had sported Decem-
ber 20 dawned upon McKenzie-they
were a disguise.
He followed the man until he had
learned his name and where he lived
Mckenzie said, and then reported his
discovery to the private detective work
ing on the case. Schneider said the
man named by Mckenzie had left the
city, but intimated that one or more
arrests might be made in the case

THE. JAPANESE WAR SCARE
BY OR. FRANK CRANE tCopyright. 1921. by Frank CraneD

Any one who has knowledge of the conditions which enter into military must be either amuzed or amazed at those who endeavoring to work up the military ambitions of Japan.
 While it is of much importance in to strike the first blow, and the nation that is minutey pre- pared down to the last buckle and cartridge box may gain the initial advantage by sudden attack the final outcome of any conflict is rather determined by the staying power and resources of country.
 This illustrated in the last war, when Ger many succeeded frghtfuy at first only to be inexor ably rolled back and crushed when the combined power of the Allies had gathered itself together.
 The resources of the United States infinite ly superior those of the island empire of Japan that in combat between the two nations there could be but one issue.
 George Gleason an international Y. M. c. A. secretary, returning from trip to the Far East, de cared last month in addressing the Congress on re duction of ornaments in Chicago follows:
 1Even if there were cause real fight to finish between the two nations would put Japan off the map The island empire might capture the Philippines, Ha wa or even part of our west coast, but when the mighty resources and technical skill of this vast tnent were once nlobilized Janan, unable to draw bankrupt Europe, would be literally starved to her knees.

Copper

We are all interested in the resumption of industry. There is general belief but it is only belief that the mines will begin operations that the copper surplus at the time the mines closed not much above the ordinary surplus and that it would probably be wiped out in months.
 The following is from Wire Message" the house organ the Habirshaw Electric Cable company New York while not authority the copper situ- ation is authority a copper product. It is view of conditions only late the end May:
 It has been long while since the closing prices for copper in month showed advance the opening prices. This is true May. The encouraging, but it should be borne in mind the advance is slight and that it is due any sub stantial improvement in domestic consumption. Drastic reduction in output increase in exports have strengthened the statistical position of copper. It is estimated that by mid production will not be than half of the present export and do mestc demand The properties closed down repre- about 75eo of the total United States output. One authority estimates that the production of 22 representative companies is about 21o of normal but there is doubt that production has been heav fly reduced; that exports have improved particularly to Germany and that domestic consumption is thing there has been improv during the past thirty days. These facts that hole is being made in the copper surplus, which is a plete reversal of conditions prevailing for many months past and amply explains the rise in price. It also jusfes the advice several authorities that the time has for consumers to consider antici pating requirements.
