The Republicans Fearfal that Lee's Majority Will be Larger than Cleve- Jand’s—Preparing to Delay Voting 1 the Large Colored Wards. Special Dispatch to Tae Evexnxa STAR, RICHMOND, VA., Nov. 2.—The latest indite- tions, especially from this elty, are not favor- able to the republicans, who are generally ex- pressing their fears of a decidedly larger ma. Jorty for Lee than was given to Cleveland. The democratic city organization, hitherto quiet, is today extending and unfolding itself in all directions, It ts said to have for use tomorrow in the large colored wards a mass of testimony affecting the residential qualification of a number of col- ored voters. As permanency of abode is not the rule with al number of colored male citizens here as well as in other cities, the dem- oOcratic managers, if they press the point under consideration, can greatiy delay the ballot. at many of the colored precincts, where at best the facilities for voting are not on a very liberal scale. The republicans, therefore, may be de- layed ip polling many legal votes to-morrow because of a long contention over the rights of person Whose votes will be in dispute.

At the proper time all necessary reforms may be made. Though elected as a democrat, he said he shall strictly observe the rule that pub- le office “is a public trust, to be sed for the public, good; put it must be distinetly understood “that ‘it is my settled be- lef that the voters of a successful political party, when honest and capable,and possessing the confidence ot their fellow chisesus.: Oeaetre to have seats at the governmental table.

His Examination Continued To-day— “Buck” Grant again on the Sta: New York, Nov. 2.—The examination of Wm. 8, Warner, who is charged in connection with the firm of Grant & Ward with having swindled the Marine Bank, was continued to- day before U.S. Commissioner Shields. U. 8. Grant, jr., was called by the defense and iden- tified” @ monthly statement of Grant & Ward, representing profits on a flour contract. Several other documents Were identified by the witness, who said that he was led to believe by Ward that the cor tracts were perfectly legitimate agreements. Atthe time of the failure witness had coutracts representing $900,000 in his hands, which he believed to be valid. ‘The witness did not take Qutas much money’at any time as he mnt into he firm. He did not know many ot the people who had dealings wiih” the firm of Grant & Ward. In regard to Warner's dealings with the firm he said that he supposed that the latter was advancing money on flour notes and contracts. ‘This concluded Mr. Grant's testimony. Col, Bliss, of the defense, said he understood that the district attorney {intended to put War ner's case before the grand Jury sometime this Week, He desired to protest against such a pro- cedury as the case should be allowed to pro- ceed ta finish before the commissioner. The case was then adjourned. 2 ES CUSTOMS FRAUDS IN CANADA. Leading Liquor Firms Said to Have Swindled the Government for Years.
