Bitter Legal Fightto Determine New York's Mayoralty. British Fleet at New York Was George IV.'t Wife Suit Against Pri vate Car Line All Amendments Carried Funeral of Sir George A. Williams. A campaign to defeat Tammany ITulI lu the supreme court and to declare William Randolph Hearst the rightfully elected mayor ol New York In place of George B. Mc Clellnn, was Inaugurated at a crowded mooting of Municipal Ownersh'p leaders on Wednesday and Mr. Hearst announced that with the evidence that 30,000 Hearst men wfia defrauded of their right to vote Tues day and that 1,000 electloi Inspector:! were guilty of Illegal acts the contest would be carried Immediately over the heads of the board of county canvas .sera Into the supreme court. The leaders said that in less than 21 hours after the polls closed the Municipal Ownership league had te cured over 1,000 affidavits chargtug il legal acts against nbo'it 1,000 election Inspectors. These affidavits s(ate that Inspectors In question wero Ti.iumniy men. Mr. Hearst himself said that within a year a "cliatu .f theso men' would be sent to Sing Slug It was also stated that in East Side assembly districts, 'minding the 38ih, Charles F. Murphy's homo district, affidavits have hoen secured to show lliHt nt h'iisi :!n,nim voles were Illegal y cast on the names of voters who went lo the polls to vote lor Mr. Hours! ami tin- .M unlclpal Ownership league ticket, but who when they ar rived found their names voted upon steady. Tho first legal step In a fight to se cure a recount of the votes cast on elec tion dny was the granting of an order by Supreme Court Justice W. J. Ga nor In Brooklyn compelling Police Com missioner McAdoo to remove every bal lot box from all the precincts in Great er New York to the bureau of elections. The contest over the mayoralty elec tion inaugurated by W. R. Hearst, the Municipal Ownership candidate, de veloped Interesting and spectacular features. For 12 hours tho nearly COO.000 bal lots In the boxes from the 1,948 elec tion districts choked the streets in the vicinity of the headquarters of the board of elections In Sixth avenue. The ballot boxes had been gathered during the night by the police and con veyed In patrol wagons and drays to the board's headquarters. There they were refused by the officials. The police had nothing to do but to remain outside and wait. Apprised of the situation the attorneys for Mr. Hearst appeared before State Supreme Court Justice Dickey and secured from him an order compelling John R. Voor hls, president of the board of elec tions, to accept the ballots. The order was served promptly and the ballots then were receipted for by the board. Under strong guards the wagons con taining the several thousand boxes were driven to various warehouses In New York and Brooklyn, where the bal lots were stored subject to orders ot the election board. Twelve Indictments. Ten Indictments for violations of the election law and two for assaults committed at the polls at the election last Tuesday were drawn up by the grand Jury, It was announced at Tammany Hall that Tammany district captains have secured evidence showing frauds com mitted by Hearst's supporters on elec tion day. Several leaders said that while a recount might lessen McClel lan's vote the counter charges of fraud which they Intend to bring against the Hearst organization will likewise bring about the lessening of the Hearst vote and that In this way an equal reduction will be made in this vote, which will not affect the re sult British Cruisers at New York. Thousands stood and watched on the batiks of the Hudson Thursday while six British warships in unison with double that number of American men-of-war fired a national salute of 21 guns In honor of Kiug Edward on his 64th birthday. Bedecked from stem to stern with flags of many colors, the column ol ships stretched for five miles up the Hudson from 42nd to 125th street, by far the largest, most formidable Anglo American naval force ever assembled in home or foreign ports. As the last gun of the salute thun dered forth across the water came the strains of "God Save the King." The bands on the Drake, the flagship ot Prince Louis, and on Rear Admiral Evans' flagship, the Maine, struck up the British anthem and quickly tho melody was taken up by the bands on the battleship Alabama, flagship of Rear Admiral Davis, and on the ar mored cruiser West Virginia, flagship of Rear Admiral Brownson, until tho music resounded to the shore, where the hum of a thousand voices swelled Its volume. Proof of Mrs. Fitzherbert's Marriage. By permission of King Edward, the London Daily Chronicle asserts, a package of papers consigned to the care of Coutts' bank to Mrs. Fitzher bert (Maria Anne Smythe), under the stipulation that It was not to he opened for a long period, has now after 70 years been opened and proved to con tain tho marriage certificate and otliei Indisputable proofs that Oooiko IV vas actually married to Mrs. Fitzhcr lert. It was txpectod that the pSrs !n Coutts' bank would settle a question which has agitated the British public for over a century as to whether there was Issue from tbe marriage but there Is nothing In the foregoing dispatch to Indicate that the question has been solved. It has long been reported that there actually was a male child, and that this child emigrated to the United States and settled In Washington, where he died some years ago after living quietly but In good circumstances.

The case Is regarded as of great general Importance by the attorney general and will be presented to as speedy a hearing as a Just regard for the Interests of the defendants will per mit. With District Attorney Butter field Charles Quarles of the Milwaukee bar has been associated. All Amendments Carried. Incomplete returns from New York state Indicate that all of the seven constitutional amendments wnlch were voted on Tuesday have been carried. Although the amendments were of considerable Importance only about one-third of the voters who went to (he polls took the trouble to vole for or against the proposed rhinites in the constitution. Of the votes actually cast the majority were in favor accord ing to such figures as were available. In New York the excitement over the close contest for mayor has occupied the attention of the bureau of elections and the vote for and against the amend ments has not yet been tabulated.

FEAST AT CONEY ISLAND. British Bluejackets Entertained by Men of American Squadron. Bowery at Coney Island Entwined With British and American Flags. After 15 Rounds of Beer Had Been Disposed of Men Started out to Do the Resorts, New York, Nov. 14. "Blood Is thick er than water." Written on the front ispiece of the menu cards, this famous saying of the American naval officer Tatnall never found more impressive expression than It did last night at the dinner on the Bowery at Coney Is land which the enlisted men of the first iquadron of the United States North Atlantic fleet gave to the enlisted men of the second cruiser squadron of the British navy commanded by Rear Ad miral Prince Louis of Battenberg. It was the keynote of the cheering with which the 2,500 British and Amer ican sailors made the great pavilion ring to the echo. It was the toast to which they drank beneath the over hanging British and American flags. It was the theme of the speeches that followed the twelfth round of beers of this mammoth feast, unique In the history of all navies and which will long furnish the theme of yarns on many a British and American berth deck. Three cheers were given Rear Ad miral Prince Louis and Rear Admiral Evans. Leaving the dinner for a few moments, they went into the balcony to watch the scene. Every HHllorman was on his feet twirling his cap aloft and led by a quartermaster at the end of the hall the mighty company cheered. Ovation to Two Admirals. There was another inspiring scene when after eating dinner the two ad mirals came down the center of tho pavilion between the solid ranks of cheering bluejackets. This ovation touched the two commanders deeply. The prince had an engagement at the horse show and was compelled to leave the banquet early. As' he did so he stopped to congratulate Chief Quarter master Schumacher of the Maine, who as chairman of the committee on ar rangements and reception had charge of the preparations for the dinner. The prince then shook hands with each of the "side boys" who were lined at the entrance to pipe the two admirals "over the side." "You have given me and my men a splendid evening," the prince said as he passed between them," and I thank you for myself and for them. Blood is thicker than water and we are glad to be ashore," he added, paraphrasing the hearty sentimeut "glad to see you ashore," which followed the .Tatnall's phrase on the menu cards' first page. Coney Island In the vicinity of the Bowery pavilion looked as if midsum mer had returned. The fakirs were about the enclosure long before the sailors and the all-year-round residents packed the approaches to the hall "to give the bunch a Coney welcome." Inside the picture was splendid. Overhead a frlese of British and Amer ican flags stretched around the hall and from each of the 12 chandeliers in the hall waved American and British flags. The balcony railing was inter twined with the colors of the two na tions. Across the lower end of the main hall was- a long table, with four small er tables adjoining at right angles. These were for the two commanders-in-chief and the staffs and the execu tive officers of the fleets. The British and American sailors were assembled on board the flagships Maine and Alabama early In the aft ernoon and taken to. Coney Island on three steamers. The band played a medley of popular sailor songs when the 2,500 sailors were being assigned their seats In the dining hall. Evidence of Discipline. Another evidence of their discipline came when for nearly an hour they sat patiently awaiting the arrival of the prince and Admiral Evans with the other officers, who came In six special cars. The party reached the hall about 7 o'clock and were roundly cheered. Before the first course was finished the prince with Admiral Evans went to the balcony to view the scene. The bluejackets cheered for four minutes. When the bumpers were filled the health of the British navy was drunk, standing. Then came three cheers for Prince Louis, three for Admiral Evans and three for the British navy. During the dinner it developed that through some misunderstanding the British sailors had granted shore leave only until 7 o'clock this morn ing, but Prince Louis promptly ex tended the time until noon today, when his attention was called to it, By 10 o'clock the 15 rounds of beer which each sailor received had been disposed of and the men started out to do Coney Island. Many of the amuse ment places opened up In honor of the visitors. At midnight the shooting galleries, the beer gardens and the other attractions were doing a rush ing business, and the 2,500 sailors were having the time of their lives. The dinner was a return courtesy for the entertainment which the men of the American squadron received when In England several years ago. While the men made merry at Coney the warrant officers of the British squadron entertulned the warrant offi cers of the American ships at a ball on the Drake. The dancing floor wag thronged with some 200 couples. W. H. ANDREWS' DEFENSE. Denies Debt of $10,000 to the Enter prise National Bank. Pittsburg, Nov. 14. William H.
