THE GALVESTON DAILY NEWS. SUNDAY. MARCH 10. 1895.
LOCKHART-HANSCOM.
The Recount of the Various Ballot
Boxes in the Civil Dis-
trict Court.
MANY VOTERS SUMMONED
To Testify as to Their Ballots, Many of
Which Cause Doubt in the Minds
of Those Counting.
The civil district court was yesterday
again occupied with the hearing of the
Loekh'art-Hanscom contest for the posses-
sion of the county judgeship of Galveston
county before lion. "William II. Stewart.
In regard to the introduction of the bal-
lot box of the Fifth precinct Mr. Stubbs
for the plaintiff insisted on the ballots
themselves being produced in open court
as the best evidence. To this the defense
objected and the court ruled that the
box should be admitted and the vote
counted on tihe ground that the relator is
entitled to use the ballots therein as evi-
dence in support of his averments as to
the number of votes cast in the precinct.
Mr. Klnsaid: "Do I understand, your
honor, to overrule our objections?"
The court: "Yes. cir."
The ballot box for the Fifth precinct was
then brought into court by County Clerk
Law, who testified that the box was deliv-
ered to him on June 7, 1894, at 12 o'clock
noon, and that the locks and seals were
intact and had not been opened since it
was in his possession. This box at the
official announcement of the returns in
November gave Loekhart 158 and Hanscom
371 votes.
In his haste to save the county 12^ cents
per hour spoken of by Judge Stewart pre-
viously In needless delays, Clerk Law, by
mistake, brought up the box containing
the registration certificates, etc., instead
of the ballot box. According to his honor's
figuring, this delay of fifty-five minutes in
changing the boxes cost the county just
$0.87'/2*
Upon the return of the clerk with the
ballet box the recount was proceeded with.
The examination of the ballots disclosed
the same errors on the part of voters and
officers of the election as the previous box
did. Ballots 55, voted by Will Lowth, 202,
voted by Tony Aull, and ballot 263, voted
by Alfred Allen, were found to have both
names on the ticket. A ballot was found
en which was written on its back, "not
official-rejected." Mr. Kincaid objected
to this ballot being counted unless the offi-
cer counting the same was brought into
court to testify in regard thereto. The
ballot H'as shown to the court, who ruled
that the ballot should be counted, but
that summons should be issued for the
officer in question. This was a Loekhart
ticket, and the defense objected to the
ruling of t'he court.
Max Barschow voted ticket No! 184 and
left the names of both the candidates ori
his ballot, while Richard Anderson, who
voted ticket No. 253, scratched both names.
This latter ticket was reserved for future
consideration at the instance of the plain-
tiff. J. Jacobs also scratched both names
on ballot No. 195, and in the case of Otto
W. Blum's ticket, there was a doubt as
to whether he scratched both names or
only one. The ballot was reserved. When
the ballot cast by Henry W. Leslie, No. 185,
was drawn from the box, Mr. Kincaid ob-
jected to its being counted for the reason
that on its back appeared the words "not
official-rejected." Further objection was
made because the voter wrote his name
on the back of the ticket. Judge Stewart,
however, allowed it to be counted, but
suggested that the voter be summoned to
testify as to how he intended to vote.
Exception to the ruling of the court was
made. John Cox and Richard Campbell
voted ballots 312 and 224 respectively, and
left both candidates' names unscratched,
and John Dunn's ballot, No. 334, was
pointed cu yellow paper. This ballot had
both of the candidates' names left on it,
and in addition it did not have the official
s-tamp on It. The ballot was thrown out.
John Highland left both names on ballot
No. 287 and Gus Schmidt did the same
thing with ballot No. 357. Ballot No. 67
was probably cast by S. Cordon. It bore
the word "rejected" on the back.
Mr. Kincaid: "I object to this ballot tie-
ing counted, your honor, because the stat-
ute provides that if a ballot, is received
lifem any one who is not entitled to vote
for any reason, the election managers shall
make a note of the number of the ballot,
apd when they come to count, it. they shall
reject it. In the absence of all evidence
the presumption is that the election offi-
cers did nothing but their plain duty under
the law and this court is bound to presume
that they so acted in this case, until the
relator explains by proof that the action
of the managers of the election herein was
wrongful. That is the explanation of all
■those ballots which have been found to
bear the same notation 'rejected.' "
The court: "I overrule your objection."
The name of Tom Bonner anoeared on
the back of ballot No. 345; it was marked
"not official," and was objected to. The
ruling of the court was that it be counted,
and it was accordingly done. Ballot 326*
E. C. Atkinson: 7t5, P. F. Walsh; 300, J.. M.
Bri'tt; 70, Mike Hogan; 35, I. Best; 114. Wm
Hart; 25, Jerald Grattan; 116, P. J. Dunn,
and 298, John Lane, were all found to have
Indicated no choice of candidates, the
voters having left both names unscratched,
while ballot 63, Charles Cleaves, and 10,
Martin palton, attained the same result bv
scratching both names. There was no of-
ficial stamp on the ballot of Tom Burns,
No. 92, and Mike Glynn's name appeared
on the face of ballot No. 359. Mr. Kincaid
objected to the ballot being counted for
this reason, and also that it had pictures
drawn upon it and "pot-hooks" and other
hieroglyphics were to be seen thereon. It
was also marked "rejected." The ballot
was examined by the court who ruled that
it was a good ballot and ordered that it
be counted for Loekhart. Ballot No. 90
created a doubt in the minds of those en-
gaged in the recount as to the intention of
the voter, and George P. Dewes may possi-
bly be summoned to testify. The ticket
was not counted. The same trouble was
found to exist with ballot 77, Peter Cum-
mins, but on examination the court ordered
that it be counted.
This ended the recount of box 5 and the
result stood: llanscom 174, Loekhart 159.
Compared with the result announced in
November, this is a loss of three votes for
Hanscom and a gain of one vote for Lock-
hart.
The Sixth precinct box was then sent for
and the court and jury proceeded to inves-
tigate it. In November this box gave Hans-
com 115 votes and Loekhart 117.
The examination of this box was a repe-
tition of that of the others, many voters
having shown no choice for the two candi-
dates. Ballots 243, 238, 230, 184, 244, 25G, 160,
234, 178, 200, 31, 78, 155, 175, 64 and 15S were
found to have both candidates' names un-
scratched, and ballots 247, 194, 233, 146
237, 262, 167, 56, 191 and 130 were found
with the names of both the candidates
scratched off. Ballot 262 was found to have
the name of the voter on the back and
was reserved for future consideration. The
name of F. D. Davis was found on the
back of ticket No. 119. It was ordered to
be counted. Ballot No. 69 was reserved
and not counted and summons issued for
J. L. Rabera to appear Monday and testify
in regard thereto. This completed the re-
count of this box and the result, Loekhart
118 and Hanscom 114, was announced. This
is a gain of one vote for Loekhart and a
loss of one vote for Hanscom, or a net
gain of two votes for lJot*kh»rfr- —
^.^announcement of the result Judge
Stewart said that he would adjourn the
further hearing of the case until Monday
morning at 10 o'clock, and that beginning
on Monday night the court would hold
night sessions until the conclusion of the
case was reached.
Mrs. Ella Goodale Smith, one of the shin-
ing lights of the Vegetarian society of
America, says of Diamond Butter oil: "I
am using the Diamond Butter Oil and shall
continue to do so until something better
takes its place, and I doubt if anything
can do this unless Edison gives an elec*
trie process for shortening our food."

M. LASKER FOR SENATOR.
He Will Accept If He Does Not Have to
Make a Fight for the Office.
Mr. M. Lusker was seen yesterday after-
noon by a News representative and asked
whether or not he would accept the nom-
ination of state senator to lill the unex-
pired term of Senator Crowley.
"The first Intimation I had of the mat-
ter," said Mr. Lasker, "was in the para-
graph inserted in The News this morning.
Since then I have been approached by a
number of people regarding the matter.
There will be very little time now left in
which to. do anything in the senate. The
election, you know, takes place April 6. [
have given the matter no thought what-
ever until to-day, but will say this: Should
1 be nominated and there be no opposition
I will accept. If 1 have to light I don't
want it. I will be willing to sacrifice thirty
days for the good of the city and state,
but T will.make no light for the position.
"The gentlemen who compose the senate
are, so 1 judge from their work, men of
business worth and sterling character,
with whom 1 would take pleasure in asso-
ciating.
"There are several laws of vital impor-
tance that I would take pleasure in assist-
ing to a final passage were I a member of
the senate. I appreciate the courtesy that
has been paid to me in this matter, and,
as 1 said before, if I am nominated without
opposition I would take pleasure in ac-
cepting it."
A number of business men expressed
themselves to News reporters as favorable
to Mr. Lasker's nomination, with the hope
that he will be chosen to represent the dis-
trict.
TIDES OF THE WEEK.
SKULL AND BONES SOCIETY.
How Thirteen Galveston Young Men Will
Enjoy Themselves.
Much has been written and much has
been said concerning what are known as
skuM and bones societies, but up to a few
weeks ago Galveston had no such organi-
zation. On the 15th of February thirteen
fun - loving, unsuperstitious, rollicking
young society lads met and organized the
Galveston skull and bones society, the ob-
ject of w'frieh |s to kill the superstition con-
cerning the number thirteen.
Said one of . the members yesterday to a
NeWs,reporter: • "On the 13th of April we
will give our first 'thirteen dinner.' There
will be present thirteen members at one ta-
ble and thirteen invited guests at another.
Thirteen dishes will be served and thirteen
waiters will be in attendance. The menus
will'be on black paper and the covers and
other decorations will be in 'black. In fact,
both the guests and the waiters will be
furnished with -black dominoes when they
enter the banquet hall. At the head of
each tattle will be a skull, and at the bot-
tom cross-toones."
The young men through modesty request
that their names should not appear in pub-
lic print, wherefore they are not given.

The map showing the results of the last
monthly survey of the bar by the United
States engineers has been completed.
While the results, in the main, of the sur-
vey were published by The News several
days ago, a study of the map develops the
fact that the eighteen-foot basin inside-the
bar has materially spread out In all direc-
tions. The eighteen-foot curve is pushing
seaward in two prongs, the longest, of
which approaches within a distance of 400
feet of the outside eighteen-foot curve.
Through the straight channel intervening
a depth, at mean low tide, of 16*4 feet is
shown. Since the survey of June 1, 1891,
was made the inside eighteen-foot curve
has moved seaward approximately a mile
and six-tenths, while the outside eighteen-
foot curve has receded seaward about one-
fourth of that distance. The channel con-
tinues to cut out in a straight line and
is still pitted full of holes of varying depth,
which shows that the action of disintegra-
tion is continuing in a most highly satis-
factory manner.
During the week ending Friday 2764 tens
of sandstone and 1767 tons of granite were
placed in the north jetty. The work of re-
building the railroad on the south jetty,
preparatory to recommencing work on the
extension ol' that jetty, continues satisfac-
torily.
Through the courtesy of the pilots' asso-
ciation The News is enabled to publish tfie
following results of the daily soundings
made by the pilots on the bar during the
week ending Friday last:
March 2, 14 feet 9 inches.
March 3. 15 feet 6 inches.
March 4, 15 feet 6 inches.
March 5, 16 feet.
March 6, 16 feet 5 inches.
March 7. 16 feet 3 inches".
March 8, 16 feet 6 inches.
When it is taken into consideration that
the prevailing winds have a marked effect
ui)on the tides and that the winds have
blown almost steadily from the westward,
the most unpropitious point on the com-
pass for a. favorable showing, the results
of the pilots' soundings are most satisfac-
tory and indicate a marked improvement
in conditions obtaining previously. In ad-
dition to becoming constantly deeper the
channel continues to cut out in a straight
line, which is a matter of the greatest im-
portance, as it reduces thereby all chance
of delay to a ship through grounding to a
minimum.
