Special Dispatch to The Star. WINCHESTER, Va., November 8.— Hundreds of voters in the seventh con- gressional district made mistakes in marking their ballots for governor in Tuesday's election, according to reports reaching here today from the various counties on both sides of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and as a result the vote for both Pollard, the Democrat, and Brown, the Republican-Fusionist, was | constderably reduced. Election officials were quoted as say- ing the presence of four names on the ticket for governor had a tendency to confuse many people. In numerous in- four were marked out. In others cross-marks were made either before or after or in the center of cer- tain names, all of which invalidated that portion of the ticket. In Shenandoah County, where Brown received 2,322 votes and Pollard 2.137, judges of election threw out 340 ballots as being improperly marked. Over 100 such tickets were disregarded in Clarke County, nearly 100 in Winchester and more than 100 in Frederick .County. It was saild that large numbers of bal- lots had to be cast aside also in Rock- ingham, Albemarle, Green, Madison, ‘Warren, Rappahannock and Page Coun- ties, The result, however, would not have been changed, according to elec- tion officials, although the vote for one candidate or another would have been increased or lowered. Pollard's vote in the district was approximately 13,263 and for Brown 8,586. Boy Exonerated in Hunting Death. Special Dispatch to The Star. MARTINSBURG, W. Va, November 8.—J.
