EXAMINING THE BALLOTS.
Twelfth Hard Contest Is Nearly at an
ICnd-Manlcy and Sweeney Will Kctain
Their Scats in the City Council.
Select Councilman James Munley and
Common Councilman Morgan Swee
ney are declared elected to their re
spective offices by the count of votes
which ended 'yesterday In the contest
brought against them by John J. Kear
ney and Henry W. Coyle.
Mr. Manley Is ahead of Mr. Kearney
by twelve votes and Mr. Sweeney Is
ahead of Mr. Coyle by only four votes.
The term In select council runs on two
years more and that in common coun
cil expires in April. Mr. Sweeney Is a
candidate for re-election und Is opposed
by Mr. Coyle.
The election took ulace In February.
ISM. The returns Indicated the victory
of Mr. Manley by 21 votes nnd Mr.
Sweeney by 0. Without delay the con
test was instituted nnd Attorneys W.
C.aylord Thomas and W. W. Ilaylor
were appointed commissioners. Aflev
u great deul of work it was found that
sixty-live of those who voted were not
entitled to the privilege owing to lion
residence, not being naturalized and
not having paid taxes.
Whim the November election came
around the election bourd in the First
district of the Twelfth ward unwitting
ly dumped all the ballots In the box
Into the stove and burned them. That
did not offer any great Inconvenience,
however, as all the Illegal voters In that
district were brought Into court and
examined ns tq, how they voted.
At the hearing nnd in the counting of
the ballots In the other district the con
testants were represented by Attorney
John U. Kdwards and the respondents
by John F. Murphy. A decree will be
handed down In a few days by the court
settling the contest and ordering by
whom the costs shall be paid. It Is
quite likely that the county will be
saddled.

Judge Kdwards handed down from
equity court yesterday an opinion in
the suit of the Klectric City Land Im
provement company against the West
Itidge Coal company, and an order dis
Ourselves.
Possibly it is not in good taste to make personal allusions,
but we are such an excessive young firm that it ma)' be
pardoned. We cannot point with pride to a long and distant
past we cannot even refer to last year; but we can plant
four feet on the living present and serve your interests with
as much pleasure and profit as our more ancient and re
spected competitors. Most of our stock is even newer than
ourselves, and it may interest you to know that our ambition
is a trifle larger than the commercial field we hope to occupy.
We are a bit over-anxious to place your orders on our brand
new order book aud to feel the weight of your silver in our
pockets. Perhaps you will find it convenient and profitable
to allow us an opportunity to do both.

missing the bill of complaint at the
cost of the plaintiff.
In August. 1S92, the plaintiffs pur
chased from the heirs of Ferdinand von
Storch. 100 acres of land In Providence,
neur lreen Ridge street and North
Main avenue, reserving the right to the
heirs to the roal and minerals, and
with the assurance that no mine or air
shaft shall be intentionally opened or
any mine fixtures established upon the
surface.
The land company wanted it for a
town plot. Five lots were sold to Indi
viduals and these lots were afterwards
purchased from the Individuals by the
West Ridge Coal Coal company, which
proceeded to open an air shnft on one
of the lots. The land company brought
Injunction proceedings. (
Judge Kdwards ruled that the de
fendants, being owners of the coal un
der the live lots aforesaid, the proviso
connected with the coal reservation Is
nut binding and Imposes upon them no
obligations to other lot owners, nor to
the plaintiff.
