Special Dispatch to The Call. 13.—The Interstate ssion met this morning to.hear the complaint of the Business Men's League of St. Louis. All the mem- bers of the commission were present e: cept Governor Fifer, who will sit with them to-morrow. 2x-Commissioner Cal- houn appeared as one of the counsel for the Business Men's League of St. Loul The Pacific Coast Jobbers' and Manu- | facturers’ Association asked leave to file tions in Jefferson, Christian, Knox, Johnson and other counties. It I + | claimed that enough fraudulent +4 | votes will be thrown out in these countles to give Goebel a majority on the face of the returns. The city s excited to-night ov. a rumor that the Governor intends to de- clare martial law in the event that Knox and Johnson counties are thrown out and that he will refuse to recognize Goebel as Governor under such conditions. This rumor of martial law is not generally credited, though there is almost certain to be a serious clash be- tween Governor Bradley and the clalmant. | +| +| 54| DI+ 4444444444444 44444 0 LOUISV Nov. 13.—The tangle eek’s election grows This was the third 1 count, but the work of the county boards of canvassers disclosed 1 ormation to clear the situation. airman Long of the Republican cam- paign committee to-day repeated his claim of a plurai 111 for Taylor, based on official re m 110 counties and un- | official returns from the remaining nine. The Democratic papers and leaders here have ceased to give figures, but specials rom Frankfort quote Candidate Goebel s saying they are confident of the success of the Kenton | County man.

The Vote, 50 far as canvassed, shows little change from the unofficial figures. The Federal Grand Jury, which was adjourned over the election, reconvened this morning, and was charged by Judge regarding election violations, par- v with reference to’the intimid: tion of colored voters. He recited the charges which had reached the ears of the court, described in detail the offenses upon which indictments should be found and continued: “Conspiracies may be hard to prove, but it s by no means impossible to prove them, both by direct and circumstanti evidence; and if you should find the ey dence and indict those who these' conspiracies you would get at a ss of men most likely of higher or at more pretentious grs This ¢l to the commu much more de the others. However, both classes should be indicted. The highest duty is imposed | .upon you to vindicate the law, and you will the more efficiently and commend- | ably discharge that duty if you shall probe matters to the bottom and without fear or favor indict every man, however | prominent or however obscure, who has engaged in any consplracy to perpetra s the- wrongs denounced by the statute. “The court also suggests to you that it is by no means impossible for officlals of high or low degree to engage in such schemes, and where that is the case the demand for punishment is all the more imperative, because an example should be In to-day secured with the enforcement of the law who make themselves the.instrument nf its violation." PORTSMOUTH, Ohio, Nov. 13.—This | was an ing day at Vancebury, Ky., | county seat of Lewls County, twenty | miles below here. An effort was made to throw out the ent ire vote of the county, which gave Taylor a plurality of 600, on a technicality, it belng claimed that the paper on which the ballots were printed Wwas too thin. On this ground the election board. last week threw out the vota of Mowe and Burtonville precincts, which e Taylor 209 plurality, and adjourned to-day Word was passed through y and to-day about 200 citizens flocked ‘nto Vanceburg and gathered round the Courthouse when the election board met at 10 a. m. News reached the crowd that the com- missioners were about to throw out the vote of another precinct, and there was an angry demonstration. Trouble seemed immine when it was announced that the election board had reconsidered its action by which the vote of certain pre- cincts had been thrown out and that the entire vote of the county would be counted as cast. An impromptu recep- tion was at once arranged by the crowd. SALTER SURRENDERS. Implicated in the Alleged Philadel- phia Election Frauds. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 13.—Deputy Coroner Samuel P. Salter, who Is Involved in the alleged election frauds in the thir- teenth division of the Seventh Ward, and for whom a warrant has been issued, surrendered himself to-day.

He admme({ he was working for the busi- ness men of St. Louls on a good salary and it was his duty to get all he could for them. He wanted the rates graded from New York west according to the mileage until the Missouri River was reached, and far enough west.of that to serve the interests of St. Louis, but he could not tell definitely where the process should stop. The whole rate question, he said, should be reconsidered and the rates revised to put the St. Louis mérchants |on an equal footing with those in the East, and so on to the Pacific Coast. He did not claim the railroads were earning too much money under existing condi- tions. The St. Louis man could now com- pete_with the Pacific Coast, through to the Pacific Ocean, In large quantities of | goods, ‘but he wanted the rates revised | €0 he could also sell to the retailers In small lots. Upon his cross-examination he admitted, in answer to questions put by the attor- I'ney for the Pacific Coast Association, that the St. Louis merchants got into thi: disputed rate war and when the condi tions were unusual, and he was trying by this proceeding to get an adjustment of rates so they could hold this field and go . farther west—in short, that the wanted all of the earth which they coul lay their hands upon. | of fiv who are said lleged ‘“repeaters, to have been brought to this city from Washington by Lieutenant Rodgers of the capital police and who are under bail for trial.
