Hoard of I'tecdon (omnliialoneri KlnUhrn It Work, Fit AXKl'OKT. Ky Iec. O.-The ntnte hoard of election commissioners, sit ting us a cunvavsing board, linished its work at 4 o'clock yesterday nfternoon. and today at 11 o'clock the member will sit in the state senate chamber ns a con testing board to hear arguments in the cases of 11 contested counties. The first great light will come up on the question of whether or not the board has the right to go behind the certificated returns tiled with the secretary of state by the differ ent counties. Upon the issue of the ar gument on this point will rest the name of the next governor of Kentucky. On the face of the returns now on file with the committee Taylor has a plurality of 12,8,'IM, his total vote being 1IK1.714. against I'.O.Itai for Ooebel. If there is to be no "going behind" the returns the hoard will have no option but to issue the certificate of election to Taylor. If the board decides that it has the power to go behind the returns there Is no telling who will receive the certificate. It will depend entirely upon the results of the contest to be decided before the board, uud the matter will without doubt be carried for final settlement to the state legislature which meets next month. The proceedings were enlivened by (tovernor Itrndlcy. who made an address to the board regarding the statement that he had brought soldiers into Frankfort. PENSIONS DECREASE.

The secretary concurs iu the recom mendations for legislation providing that no pension be granted to commence prior to the date of filing the claim, for an early revision and codification of the pen sion laws us the numerous amendatory laws and decisions have made the whole system a labyrinth of laws and legal opinions. Secretary Hitchcock urges leg islation to definitely construe the act of June 27, 1800, relating to widows' pen sions. FIGHTING YAQUIS.
