 AFFECT NEW HAVEN
Reilly in Oifce as Sherif--But Little Change in Vote

Hartford, Nov. 2o,-Sheriff Thomas L. Reilly was reelected sheriff of New Haven county by practically the same vote as returned by the various moderators in the towns of the coun- ty. according to the official figures of the state board of eanvassers today which accorded to request Of coin- scl for Frederick W. Orr. the rcpubli- can candidate, and canvassed the en- tire 33 wards of New Haven. The only change found in the New Haven vote was in the 18th ward. where the Orr vote was folnd to be bs5 instead Of 5S5 as returned by the moderator and as shown by the master sheet of the election which Town Clerk John Doughan produced.
 The canvassing board gave n hear ing on the New Haven sheriff vote based upon the affidavit of Benjamin Levin of the 18th ward. who claimed that the returns should have been bs5 votes for Orr instead of 565. Town Clerk Doughan was present under a subpoena issued by Attorney General Healy as commissioner of the super ? for court.
 MT. Doughan upon advice of coun- sel, Robert P. Butler, refused at the outset to produce the ward returns, but offered to show to the board the master sheet.
 A discussion arose in which Mir. Butler and Charles Kleiner, of New Haven, took part. as 10 whether Mir. Doughan had to comply with the re- quest of the board. The result of the discussion was that Mir. Kleiner de- danded a recount of the entire 33 wards, saying that there was likeli- hood of errors in other wards beside the 18th.
 MT. Butler objected to the request as going far beyond in scope the ob- ject of the hearing.
 MT. Kleiner argued that there were just as likely to be other errors as in the 18th ward covered by the affida- Wt. If there was no error mo one would be hurt was Mir. Kleiner's con tention.
 general had a conference and the de- cision was that the board was entitled to make complete canvass of the city Of New Haven on the vote for Sheriff.
 Mir. Butler said Mir Doughan would submit the ward returns with the un- derstanding that the attorney would assume the entire responsibility of the precedent created
 ''I accepted the responsibility" re- piled Mir. Healy-
 The board then proceeded to can vass the vote of the 33 wards.
 After the canvass, the board an nounced that the only change in fig ures was in the 18th ward, where Mir Orr gained 20 votes.
 Mir. Butler contended that the voting machine and ward returns could not be given without an order from the superior court.
 Secretary of State Warner held that the powers of the board gave it the right to see the returns.
