TR CANVASS REGUN. ‘The County Clerk yesterday afternoon, asslst- ed by Justices Doyle and Hammiil, commenced the oflicial canvass of the returns of the late election, The place sclected for the work was the Clerk’s private oflice, an 8x10 room, and the attendance of lookers-on was necessarily limit- cd. There were present, however, beside the Canvassipe Board and roquisite clerks, James . Root and Mr, Brayton, reoresenting the He- ‘publican Central Committee, and Junlor Doo- litlle representing the Democracy, and reporters ropresenting the several papers of the city. lio work fvas comienced at 2 o'clock with Tocked dours, and the Firat Ward returns were takenupby precinets, Inthe First Precinct thers was a slight dlscrepancy between the retitrns and the tally-sheet, but nothing at all material, In the other precincts there were some lmper- fectious, coming of the Board selecting Incom- petent judges and the judges incompetent clerks, IJmt nothing that caunot be easily rem- edied and corrected. In the Bccond Ward the &ame condition of affalrs was found to exlst, but tho errors were iminaterial and passed over, Upon the completion of the canvass of the Sec- ond Ward, the work was suspended until this morong at 10 o'clock. During the progress of the canvass the *un- terrified ” on the ontslde, Including the * Ring " Commlssioners ami pap-suckers, were in the Dighest glee, and Among them it was boldly as- serted that the “Ring " was to be perpetuated after all, and that Guenther was to be counted fn. Those that spoke in this strain believed what they said, too, and seemed to have some assirances {romn some compeicnt source, Some of them were nffering to wager that Rouutree would be re-clected County Attorney, that McCatlrey wonld'be mado County Awent, and that the several county Institutions wonld re. main In_the hands and under the control of the old Ringsters another year, so great wae thefr confidence that Guenther would be given his seat fu the Board by hook or crook. They were in the deepest earnest, and Irom the way they talked and acted there Is no doubt but an effort s on foot, and a well-devised scheme has been laid, to keep Wheeler vut of the Board If possible. ‘Iiey fully appreciate the importance of Guenther's vote n thc organization, which would give them a majority, and in the desper- ation of all concerncd 12 would not be surprls- Ing to sce an attempt to defeat the public will in'the matter, A reporter broached the subject to Mr. Guenther during the day, and bhe confessed that he had heard of the proposition, but denied that he had bad or would have anythlur to do with it. Heo sald he bad been toldthat in Hyde Park a great many Republican tickets had been voted with his name printed on thein, and that they had been {nadvertantly counted for Wheel- er, yet he believed that lie liad been honestly beaten, and was satisfied with fhe large vote he had recelved, Ile'did not prOpose to contest Wheeler's electlon in any event, for he was realiv tired of the office ‘and wanted to retiro, But If counted in, he sald, e would sorve and do the best he could. TIIE COUNTY BUILDING. Egau did not call for his order yesterday for the $7,500 voted him the day before, and Periolat was not heard from. Theophilus Stevens, twice tried for the mur- der of Thomas Murphy, the jury disagreeing both times, was yesterdny discharged from custady, thore being no probabllity of bis final conviction. “ The Grand Jury yesterday did very little work. But’one case was heard and a true bill was found and returned, Some complalnts about thie West Park Board management are to be heard Friday. Commiskioner Holden yesterday did not make known who the experts were to measure Sox- ton’s brick and dome work. Sexton wns very " busy during the day, and may not have had time to suzgest names to bim, ‘The Finance Conunittes fafled to meot yester- day to lix uF the tax-levy, but will mecet this morning. ‘The Chairmai said to a reporter during the day that the Court-House would not be Llaken into aceount fn the levy, as it was very clearly shown in these columns’ )'nltcnlu‘y that it coulid not be. Tho rate of taxation will prob- ably be ¥5 cents on tho §100, an focrease of 11 cents un the rate of o year ago. AT WORK IN TUE DARK, vy The Judidary Committee, intrusted with the matter of reporting on the salarles of the county cinployes tho coming year, held a secret eeting In'the office of the County Attornoy gesterday, Why the meetlng should have heen rocret caunot be divined, but It was sccret, and whatever was done cannot be kuown untfl to- day, when 1t will report. A reporter got a glance at the works done, hiowever, beforo it was vompleted, and found that the allowainee for the County Attorney was to remnin at $7,000, In the othier ofllces” the salarles were sligntly re- duced, but not in tho proportion that the condltion of tha_county’s finances would seem t demand. The Attorney's salary, ft Is understood, was Jeft at $7,000° on the suppos|- tlon that Roantree could be ro-elected, If It {s clear to-day shat ho cannot be, the fgures witl bouvnt down to ubout #5000, whéreas £2,500 would be a liberal allowance unless the new Board really intends to hire a roputable lawyer. THE COUNTY CLENK'S ASSESSMENT. The County Clerk has really levied an asscas. ment of $3 per day on his mien; but not for Oc- tabier, as hierotofore stated, but for November, an,in order not to take tho amount dircetlyoul of thelr pockots, Is to have them at the office tive evenings In tho week burning was and story- telling, and.In bis tencrosity will allow them pay for six evenings at each, which ainount he will sce well spprooriated, A great mauy mean and despicabia things have been doue in that offieo in the last e»ur years, but this beats oll. [t Is an finposi- lon not unly on the poor cm[:loyul, but also on the publle, and will amount in the aggrerato to not less than §5,000, Such n proceeding was never beforo heard of, aud it Is & cotmmens tary on the character of his cmployes that they, or sa many of them, will stand it.” The propo- aition ac f{rat waa that they should divide thelr #1 5 day to make up a party ' delicit," put they would not have it. As the® schicmno Is to be wurked now, the man are to coma to the oflice lu the evening, and sit around, be credited therefor with 82 oxtra a day, and the county {a to puy the same, and Lieb Is to pocket the woney, TIIE CITY-HALL. ‘The Committce on Ralirosds fs called to meet In the City Clerk's oflice Thursday afterncon aL 3 o'clock, City-Attorney Tuthll! was msdo Lappy yester- day.
