WThere was a momentary stampede vesterday when the bell atengine house No. 1 struck once. No more taps fol- lowed, and while the department was all ready to respond there was no alarm. Billy Maloney, of the Pacific house sample rooms, is preparing to open up a {:m.-.v at Lincoln. He has many friends ere who dislike to sce him go, but pro- hibition must be enforced as against the open saloons.

The present rooms are proving too small, and a change will have to be made in order to accom- modate the increased numbers. Fred Green, the youthful colored des- perado, was arrestéd Monday night on a warrant issued by Justice Schurz. As everybody was interested yesterday at the polls the case was not brought up, but will probably be tried before Squire Schurz this afternoon.

The Democrats Show Up Strong and Claim the Local Victory. THE COUNT VERY SLOW INDEED. A Protest Against the Proadway Grad- ing Contract—An Umbrella Causes Much Trouble—Brief News From All Around Town. Counting the Votes. sterday was one of the strongest ret quietest elections held in this v. The new registry law bars out out those who had not their names en- rolled before, and there was none of the old-fashioned swearing in of votes. The try was a larger one than at any previous election, for there have been many additions to the population during the year. There was an earnestness about the election which was not of the brass band and hurrah order, although there was an abundance of music enough enthusiasm to make it inte ing. There was a lavge proportion of &ly voting, though. Men were numer- ous who kept their ballots snugly folded, not caring to display their intentions to ds even. There were many repube who apparently w ilfilling the predietions that the” prohibition policy of the party would drive some into the opposition camp. There was considor- able seratching on the local \ndi_dm The were open till eight o'clock, and vote being so large and the seratehing so plenty, the fud-,:os and clerks started in on their task of count- ing with what scemed little prospect of completing the count before the carly hours of the morning. The day cool and eloudy. and scemed especially cloudy for the repub- licans. The confidence of the democrats in their ability to make a clean sweep of the county ticket was in strange con- trast with the hopes of the republicans that they would succeed in electing two of their candidates, William Arnd. as auditor, and John Bennett, as sheriff. These two were heve the strongest stays for the republicans, and beyond them the med to be little confidence ex- presse There were few 5 of disturbance, and not an est during the d There L few hot wtion of peace. were occasional skirmishes, words, a blow or two, a sepa would-be combatants, and then Despite the fact that there was 10 be a police force, paid for b rs, they seemed to tind no oce s 80 long as the polls wero of the force were bus helping out the mayor's for the senatorship, and as ward workers, vather than poli The saloons—for ther in prohibition Towa—clos doors during the day easy to locate their bick ones, for about these there was a swarm, coming and going. There were as many evidences of drink as on any election day under the license system, and seemingly more. In the y wst it has been th tom Some open. ‘mer, :still saloons d their front but it was very for the mayor to issue a proclumation The ordering the saloons to be closed. singular fact is that although this p no such proclamation appeared, for it could not be done consistently, yet the saloons closed their front doors. The present law in regard to elections is very st in its prohibitions of ticket peddlers being allowed within hun- dred feet of the polls. The law provides that each voter shall have a chance to go to the polls alone, and having de- posited his ballot, to retire and lea the space clear for others. The rc rawn yesterday to show the *d line,” inside of which it that none but the men vot lengers and the special police should be allowed. The police regulations were yesterday arranged, apparently, in the interests of the democratic mayor, and in furtherance of his candidacy for the senatorship. Inseveral instancesdemo- cratic ward workers, and policemen peddling tickets, went within the sacred enclosure undisturbed and unmolested, while those working for the opposition ticket were summarily m'dr\rm[ away. Such acts were not only breaches of fair lay, but were direct violations of the aw, which should be followed up with such penalties as the law provides. There was much talk yesterday ab v being bought. There was ev indication that there was an unholy traffic going on, and some made tho claim that they had positive proof that such was ghe case. It was claimed that some of the lookers-on from a conven- iently located window saw the money change hands, and were ready to swear to what they knew. Colonel Daily was investigating the matter, but was not decided last night, or at least would not express himself, as to whether he would prosecute or not. The vote polled yesterday at the vari- ous polling polling places in the differ- ent wards was even larger than antici- pated. In all 8,072 votes were cast, which was 277 short of the registration. The First ward registered 604 and polled 557 votes, the Second ward regis- terved 994 and polled 904, the Third reg- istered 660 lnlé polled 622, the first pre- cinct of the Fourth ward registered 720 and polled 673, the second precinet of the Fourth ward registered 862 and polled 816, At 11 o’clock only three or four hun- dred votes had been counted, and the indications were that there would be no finish until 8 or 4 o'clock in the morn- ing. The count proceeded ve at a late hour was still very incomplete. The democrats claim the election by 800, and the republicans concede it, but by between 800 to 400 majority: There isno doubt but that the democratic county ticket is elected. 1 as supposed 1g, the chal- t slowly and p 2L Money to loan, & Judson, R Mixed Bids On Grading. When the first batch of bids were opened for the grading of lower Broad- way there appeared to be irregularities in some of them, there being an absence of bids and other deficiencies. Among the bids at that time was one by Owen Bros., who had been induced by Mr. Evans to bid on the work, he owning considerable property in that vicinity and desiring that the work should he done as eheaply as possible. The bid of Owen Bros. was drawn up in Mr, Evans’ ofice by his son, and in accordance with the dictation of Owen Bros,, who signed it. A bond wus made out with good surcties, but no definite amount was named in the boyd, It wasdecided that the amount should be specified, instead of being a blanket gugrantee, All the bids were rejected, and at a later meet- ing new ones were received. In preparing to bid again, Owen Bros. took their bond and bid back to My, Evan's office to have the defect remedied, The new bond was made out as required, and Mr., Evans, after sign- ing it, tore up what he supposed was the ol bond, aud threw it in the = waste busket. When the envelope . wus opened the bond [ man, was unfortunate enough yesterd | to lend his umbrella to some demoer was there all right, but no bid could be found. It was discovered that the bid had been torn up, and thrown into the waste basket instead of the old bond. The torn pieces were fished out, pasted together, and accompavied by an afti- of Mr. Evans corroborating this claim, and also by an affidavit of his son, who had drawn up the bid origin- ally and whoidentificd it as the original. With these affidavits it was evident there was no collusion, but simpiy an accident, The council admitted the bid under these circomstances and awarded the contract to Owen Bros., for filling the western end of the street at 35 cents a yard. Among the other bidders were Wells, Reilly & Co., who had offered to do the grading on the castern end for cents and the western end at ute. They were therefore awarded the eastern end of the work, They now yrotest against the award to Owen i!ro:‘.. and want to have all the bids rejected, or else that the contract he given to Wells, Reilly & Co. This firm now offers to do the entire grading from the Northwestern depot to the river for 33 cents. — “The Deestr ule.” This amusing amateur entertainment which was given here with such suc- cess, is now being reproduced in all parts of the country. The Congrega- tional society of this city found the de- mand for particulars so great that they have published a large edition of pamphlets giving the needed informa- tion as to how to provide this unique entertainment.

He couldn’t see why he couldn't have his own rain protector, and the words flew hot. O'Brien rested a man named Roseman, for in- terfering in the controversy, and turned him over to another ofticer Then he went for Carey osted him, There was much indignation about this roceeding, and a crowd went to the jail and demanded u Officer O'Brien had been v s during the day, and patience had ceased to bo avirtue.

How much do they cost and what protection do they give on an invention? I am anold reader of the News and this is my first ques- tion to you. Yours truly following cived by NDUSTRY, As there are a_very large number of inventors in Philadélphia, and as they are all more or less intorested in the questions asked in the letter above, a News reporter yesterday saw a well- known patent lawyer, who gave the in- formatjon desired, Application for a patent must be made by a petition to the commissioner of pat- ents at Washington, This petition must be accompanied by a specification and drawing fully setiing forth the inven- tion and claiming what is believed to be new. The inventor must also make oath, in writing, setting forth that he believes himself to be the “original, first and sole in- ventor” of the improvement claimed; that he does not knpw it to have been used, and does not, believe it ever was known or used before hisinvention. and that the invention has not been put on the market by himself or others with his knowledge or consent in any coun- t The inventer must also state that his invention has not been put in use or on sale in the United States for more than two years prior to the application, and the outh must contain a statement of the inventor's citizenship or re dence, It the inventor will write to the commissioner of patents for in- formation the commissioner will send him a copy of the rules and regulations of the patent office, which contains all the forms for the petitions and oaths re- quired in the applications before the patent oftice. ‘The government fee for a patent is$15 on filing the application and $20 after the application is allowed, and before the patent is issued.
