SUGGESTIONS FROM THE SUPREME COURT Illrrctlnni to Voter * Contained In n UeclMoii Hnndeil Down I.IMI Mar Cronies Only mill I'lucci tu I'roprrljr I'llt 'I Ill-Ill. . . . A decision of the supreme court at the last May term made clear n number of points which We're heretofore hidden under n dense veil of uncertainty , and If .Its provisions are carried out there will be considerably lets danger of the loss of votes by reason of a failure to observe the minor details , It Is held that the voter must rriark his ballot with a cross consisting of only two straight lines , and this must be In the proper circle or square. No mark but a cross can be counted , and If the voter makes a cross , but cross , but adds some other distinctive mark , or If he marks outside the circle or Miuare.lt should not be counted. Cvery ballot which Is so marked by the voter as th.it It could be readily Identified should he rejected ; that Is , If any other mark bo made on the ticket by the voter than the statutory cross or crosses which could read ily be used as an Identifying mark the ticket must be entirely reacted , even though the voter did not Intend the mark for that pur pose. Perhaps the most Important po'nt of all decided Is In relation to the- manner of vet ing , where more than one candidate Is to bo elected to the tame oKlce , This year two or more justices and constables are to be elected In every township , and In most parts of the state two or more district judges are to bo chosen , The supreme court holds that If one wlshss to split hs : ticket on any such office he must abandon the circle and mark all the candi dates for whom he desires to vote. To Illus trate : If a. republican should mark tils ticket with a cross In the circle and then put a cross opposite a democratic candidate for district judge his ticket should be counted only for the democrats thus marked , and not for any republ.can candidate for that oflice , and this would bo true even If he marked with a cross such a number of republican candidates as would make up the proper number to be elected. If any one wishes to divide Ills ticket on judge , justice , constable or other multiple office * , he musl leave the circle entirely blank and prefix a cross to the nainS of cacn candidate of his cho ce In the square oppo site the names for which he wishes to vote.

A bomb exploded to night outside a house in Ttlney street , IMrk lane , two doors from the residence ol Ihe Hon. Sir Henry Hawkins , ono of the justices of the queen's bench divisions of her majes ty's high court of justice. The front of. the house was much damaged and the windows on the < opposite side of the street were smashed. The house was occupied , but no body was hurt. The force of the explosion must have been great , 0.1 the door of the house was blown In and tin atone steps shat tered. The street was at onto crowded by the police. A search revealed the re mains of the bomb. Suspicion rests on a man who alighted In the vicinity of the house from a cab which had convened hint from the Savoy hotel. He has not yM been arrested. Justice Hawkins Is the Judge who sen tenced Frederick Charles , Victor Oalles , Joseph Thomas , Duncan and Jean Battollo , the Wollsan anarchists , to various terms of Imprisonment , He also presided nt the trials of other anarchists and Imposed sen tences of various degrees upon them. It IsPi thought In some quarters that the ex plosion was an attempt to- secure revenge against the judge , but that the author of itac made a mistake In the house. Another account of the explosion says the house Is the residence of Hon. Reginald Brctl , son ofhi the late Lord Eshcr. Mr. Brett was at his club and Mrs. Brett was In the hall ofSI her residence when the bomb exploded. She was , however , not hurt. The bomb ploughed up a. cavity eighteen Inches deep below the threshold of the front door , which was blown to pieces. The top step , a slob of concrete , forty by sixty Inches , was was blown across the street. The1 railings were . twisted. The sound of the explosion was heard for two miles. .MAKC1KM1 STi : < VI > lLi : ONW.IK1) , Oily Alter City Captured by the Victorious Japanese Armln. YOKOHAMA , Nov. 4. Advices receivedClf here from the front show that there has been heavy fighting In. the country Just north of Port Arthur. The dispatches received are brief and arc silent on some Important points. U appears that Field Marshal Oyama divided his forces. While one di vision landed on tlio coast ot the peninsula , north of Tall-En-Wan , another 'division ' was delachr/d with orders to effect a landing near Kin-Chow , and to proceed thence and Join the main body of tlie army. This operation was a complete success. The Japanese encountered no Chinese warships and the transports reached Ka-Yen-ICo nnd disembarked troops , guns , horses and muni tions In safety , Kin-Chow , which Is a walled town and which was believed to be held by a largo garrison , " 'was' Immediately attacked. The outer defenses'were carried by the Japanese after a few hours' fighting. The Chinese made little- further resistance and the Japanese were soon irlasters of the place. In the meantime Hie Japanese flMt. which had convoyed the transports , opened a heavy flro on Tall-En-Wan and Kakul-Yo ( ICay-Yen-Ko ) . The fire scarcely ceased for many hours. Covered by the 'lire from the ships the land forces attacked * and captured Tall-En-Wan In brfllia'nb a fashion. The dispatches state that the losses' were heavy. They also mention that an 'Important naval engagement occurred Saturday , but give no details. Yesterday was ( lie forty-second anniver sary of the birth of the mikado. There will be great public rejoicing to morrow over the victories thus far won by the Japanese armies. Up to the time of sending this dispatch there has been no confirmation of the report ol the capture of Port Arthur. Field Marshal Yamagatn's army continues Its victorious march. The division under General Tatsuml pushed , for ward and captured Fung-Wang-Chlng , as already cabled to the Associated press. The enemy was scattered and fled In the direc tion of Taku-San , Kal-Joa and Hoten-Fu. No righting Is mentioned as having occurred at Fung-Wang-Chlng , but it Is alleged 300 Chinese were killed nt Tal-Kai. Field Mar shal Yamagata's official dispatch says the detachment under General Tatsuml has oc cupied Fung-Wang-Chlng , a fort which ranks In importance next to Moukden. The principal portion of the army fled toward Moukden , and the remainder In the direction of Hcl-Chen and Taku-San. The Chinese Inhabitants , who have been plundered by the Chinese soldiers , welcomed the Japanese army. The Japanese captures to the present ore flfty-flve cannon , 1,500 small arms , 20,000 rounds of artillery ammunition , 2,500,000 rounds small arms ammunition , and a quantity of other material. DEFENSE OF MOUKDEN COLLAPSED. A dispatch to the Times from Tlen-Tsln says that Fung-Wang-Chlng was burned by the Chinese. The defense of the road to Moukden has collapsed. General Sung , with the remnajit of his army. Is In the Mathlen- Ling pass , between Fung-Wang-Chlng and Lino-Yang. Winter lias set In and snow has fallen In Manchuria. The dispatch adds that the Japanese cleverly effected a landing at PItz-Wo ( Kin-Chow ) , while making a demonstration against the opposite coast of Shan-Tun. They cut the telegraph wJres , thus preventing the news ' ( rom reaching the Chinese admiral , A Chinese fleet , consisting of fourteen war ships and a torpedo flotilla afterwards started to attack the Japanese , but was recalled. It Is believed the government IB reserving the fleet for moro Important service. Prince Kung , the emperor's uncle , who was recently appointed president of the Tsung-ll-Ynmen and chief ofm \ admiralty , has now been appointed dictator , Indicating a futhcr centralization of authority. The Japanese entered Fung-Wang-Ching on October 31. A Shanghai dispatch to tlie. Times says that LI Hung Chang will go lo take command of the first Chinese army. Viceroy LI Tul of Nonkln , becomes viceroy oMTIen-Tsln. The viceroy of Wu-Chang has been appointed tea a similar position In Nankin.
