I'll 1ST DISTUICT OF OLD FOIUIH HNAM 1NKD YKSTKKDAY. Pefore the examination of witnesses: yesterday morning In the Langslnff Kellay contest, there was it hearing be fore Judges Arehbald und Gunster In the former's chambers on u petition llled by Mr. Kelley's attorneys to quash tile second bill of puillculurs llled by Mssrs. Holgute and Mnmilton. Judge Arehbald granted it rule to show cause why the bill should not be quashed and fixed Monday, May .'3, nt 9 a. m., as the lime if or n heating. Meanwhile all other pnceedlngs of the contest are stayed. Judge Arehbald permitted the witnesses subpoenaed for yesterday to be examined. Senator McDonaM on the part of Mr. Kelley, nttucked the bill of particulars for tlie reason, he said, that It specifies that a number of persons voted Ille gally for the tenson that they were not born In the culled States and had nev er been uatutnll.ed In conformity with law and therefore were not citizens of the I'nlted States at the time they cast their vote at said election. Following said specifications are 13.500 names or tluTcabouts. while as a matter of fact there are not that many aliens lit the county. XFMHKH OP ILLKGAL VOTKS. The bill sptolilcs that 12,500 or there abouts, voted Illegally In the several districts set opposite their names at tho election on the second of Xovember. IMC, lor tlie reason that they received and agreed to receive for themselves and for others, money, reward, nnd consideration for their votes. As a inciter of fed It Is specllled in the bill that all the Votes i nst for -M. J Kelley at said election, with the exception of about 1,000, wcte fraudulent for the reason above specified. Th" lull contains a specification thai a number of persons voted Illegally li the several districts. Following this sppclflcntloii aie about 13,500 names. It Is a. palpable misrepresentation to st.ito that lK.tiOO or nearly that number of persons In this county voted In elec tion districts In which they did not re side .Mr. Holgute- argued that the bill came within the law nnd answered all its requirements. Further than this the respondent was not entitled to a bill. The purpos-e of attacking the' particu lars, he said, was lo secure more time by endeavoring lo block the pioceed Ings. JFDGK AKCIIIJALD'S OHDKK. The examination of v.itnesse's wns then pi ooooded with, but Judge Arch bald made it his busini'ss to como to the arbitration room and announce' that no witnesses except those sub poenaed yesterday would lie examined until the rule now pending Is disposed of Those who were examined were from the First district of Old Forge town ship nnd were as follows: John M.
