Hears of Proposed Fraud. It was said this morning that the sudden move made by Mr. Hearst last night fol lowed a .report by him) that a printing company had been at work Tuesday night printing ballots. The report was further to the effect that the ballot boxes were to be opened while in the hands of the police and stuffed. Mr. Hearst decided to act at once. The mrdor secured from Judge Gaynor directed the police commis sioner and all hia subordinates In the five boroughs to turn over to the board of elections forthwith all ballot boxea con taining ballots and stubs of ballots, and also to fije with the county clerk before noon today all envelopes containing tally sheets. Inspectors', returns, defective bal lots and ballots marked for ldontlllcatlon. The order was Issued on the affidavit of Mr. Hearst himself. The affidavit states Mr. Hearst's belief that he received a plurality of the voles, but that, according 14. the returns, 3,4JO more votes than he himself received were counted for Mr. Mc Clellan. Captain Cruse read the order to Commis sioner McAdoo over the telephone. be commissioner's reply., wag an order to the captain directing him to read the Gaynor order over the telephone to the captain.

Page, a republican member, but he too, was unwilling to take custody of the boxes. Mr. Voorhls told the representative of Mr. Hearst, who called at his home, that he construed the order of Justice Oaynor to mean that In directing the delivery of the boxes by noon today, opportunity was left to the Tammany forces up to the hour to seek to obtain an order to show cause why the boxes should not be delivered. When the drivers and policemen guarding the wagons, found that the unwillingness of President Voorhees to open the office meant a long wait, out In the cold, for them, they were angry, but they made th? best of it. Colonel Alexander 8. Bacon, one of Mr. Hearst'a lawyers, who played a promnlent part In the doings of the night, made arrangements for the police to get breakfast In a nearby restaurant. Police Captain Becker of Brooklyn, who came over with the load of ballot boxes from his sta tion to make aure that they were cared for. and who was the senior police officer pres An oiiiimarl fiharcA nr thA ammtlnn nnn dld'what he could to bring order out of the- confusion caused by the unusual situation. When Mr. Voorhls refused to accept the , ljillot boxes he ordered that they be re- ; turned to the police station house. At that time twenty-five police wagons were lined up In front of the office of the board of elections and policemen were unloading some of them. When they learned of the order of Mr. Voorhls they placed the boxes In the wagon again, but did not at ones return them to the police stations. Mr. Voorhls said he had asked the cor poration counsel for an opinion as to whether he should receive the boxes and would not accept them until he had received that opinion. Among the attorneys aiding Hearst Is William Ivlns, the republican candidate for mayor In Tuesday's election. Mr. Ivins volunteered his services to Mr. Hearst and the offer was accepted. Another attorney acting for Hearst Is Judge John F. Dillon, who wa at one time judge ofthe supreme court 01 10 wa. No Room for Boxes. - President Voorhls said that even If the legal decision should be that his board must receive the ballot boxes, he would have them sent under police guard to some stor age place other than his office, which- was too small for them. In Brooklyn also the ballot boxes were not accepted by the board of elections, but the police were permitted to carry them Into its room in the Temple Bar building. . By 6 o'clock this morning all the ballot boxes from the various precincts were in the offices under guard and Mr. Dady had gone to New York to confer with Commissioner Voorhls upon the situation. It was reported that many of the boxes In Brooklyn were not properly sealed. Shortly before noon extra police were called out to keep order In the vicinity ot the ballot boxes in Manhattan.

Manager Burgess of the Boyd theater j received the following telegram from ' Richard Mansfield last night, dated at Des Moines, where the great actor pre sented his new play, "Don Carlos:'' Some evilly disposed person, actuated by a spirit of mischief or jealousy, has sent i out an absurd report that the tragedy of 1 "Don Carlos'' is injurious to the Catholic church. No statement could be more ridicu lous or further from the truth. "Don Carlos" was written 118 years ago by the great poet Schiller and has been played since then for the last century at least twice yearly in the principal theaters of Germany, Including the Catholic stales. "Don Carlos" deals to a slight extent with the horrors of the Inquisition, and the InqulHltlon Is a matter of history with which many writers have dealt. The Roman Catholic church is too big and much too brond-minded to object to an historical tragedy by a great poet On ac count of a political organisation. Roman Catholic or not Roman Catholic, which has lung ceased to exin. RICHARD MANSFIELD. Mr. Mansfield will arrive in Omaha on a special train at about S o'clock this morn ing.

Paid sjrs.ono. NEW YORK. Nov. .-The house In Albany, N. Y.. which testimony before the Insurance Investigating committee has here tofore shown was for a number of years maintained by funds of the Mutual Life Insurance company, was again given some attention by Charles E. Hughes, counsel for the committee, when Michael P. Mul laney. the caretaker ol the house, was called today as a witness. Mr. Mullaney's testimony was In great part a corroboration of previous testimony that A. C. Fields, while employed as sta tionery agent of the Mutual, also looks after legislative matters and paid the rent for the Albany house. Today a number of vouchers signed by Mullaney were Identified, by the witness, who acknowledged receiving the money for them. Some purported to be for legal services, some for sundries and some for traveling expenses. Witness said he was not a lawyer, and could not explain why vouchers were made out to that Item. J. M. Beck, counsel for the Mutual, however, took occasion to remind tho counsel that all vouchers for the maintenance of this house. It had been testified, were charged to legal expenses. . Mr. Hughes said that did not explain why some were for travel ing expenses and some for sundries. Sundries Are Not Explained. Mullaney could hot tell what the sundries were, unless they were supplies. He had taken trips to New York to see Mr. Fields at the latter's suggestion. Me did not know how many times, he had been to New York. He some times bought tickets for Mr. Fields. Nineteen vouchers were Identi fied by Mullaney, for all of which he ad mitted he received the money, which aggre gated $5,739. These were paid between March 7, 1900, and July 12, 190S. Mullaney said his salary was $23 a month. He had never carried any money to Albany from New York for Mr. Fields and had never paid out any money for Mr. Fields. The greater part of the duy William 1 Barnes, sr.j formerly of Albany, but now living at Nantucket, Mass., sat In the room, but late In the afternoon he was excused for the day. Dr. Barnes figured in this Investigation .several weeks ago, when vouchers bearing his signature were produced, together with a letter signed by William Barnes, jr., of Albany reminding the Mutual Life that Ms father's "hono rarium had not been received." and further asking that a check be forwarded. Affairs of Metropolitan. The Metropolitan Life Insurance company figured In the greater part ot the day's proceedings. John R. Hegeman, president of the company, who was on the stand when adjournment was taken yesterday, was the first witness today, and the ex penses of the company were further gone Into. It was brought out that Mr. Hoge man's salary is the same as that of John A. McCall, president of the New York Life, $100,000. Previous to 1965. however, Mr. Hegeman received $90,000. The salary of Vice President , Haley Flake is $76,000. George H. Gaston, the second vice presi dent, receives $37,S00, and Frank O. Ayres, third vice president, receives $16,500. The work of . agents In, the field and their compensation was pLken up with Mr. Hege man, and later '(ines H. Craig, the ac tuary, was railed to supply details as to figures with which Mr. Hegeman was not familiar. Later In the day, when Mr. Craig waa excused, Mr. Hegeman was again called and the subject of the company's securities was taken up, but the Interroga tion had hardly begun when adjournment for the day was ordered.

PRINCE LOUIS IN NEW YORK Oraaa Displty sf righting Ships Marks IrriTsl of AdairaL OBSERVES THE BIRTHDAY OF THE KING Flaas Fly and National gelnte la Fired by Combined Fleet la Honor of Brltlsk Holiday. N NEW YORK. Nov. 9. Thousands stood and watched on the banks of the Hudson river at noon today while six British war ships In unison with double that number of American men-of-war fired a national salute of twenty-one guns In honor of King Edwsrd, who celebrated today his sixty-fourth birthday anniversary. Be decked from stem to stern with gnlly flut tering flags of many colors, the column of ships stretched for four miles up the Hud son, from Forty-second to One Hundred and Twenty-fifth streets, by far the larg est and most formidable Anglo-American naval force ever assembled In a home or a foreign port. Arrival of the Britons. Right royally was Rear Admiral Prince Louis of Battenberg nnd his splendid cruiser squadron welcomed to the Ameri can metropolis this morning. The squadron passed In through the narrows at 7:2S. the flagship Drake at the head of the column. As the squadron passed Governor's island the flagship thundered forth a national salute of twenty-one guns, which the shore battery answered In kind. Without di minishing Seed the cruisers swung around Into the Hudson river. The sight of them set the whistle of every craft In the harbor shrieking In welcome. Despite the early hour, hundreds who had gathered along the shore Hue doffed their hats and waved handkerchiefs In greeting to the visitors. Throughout this splendid welcome Rear Admiral Prince Louis stood on tho after bridge of the Drake, pleased and Impressed. As they came past Quarantine station each Bhip lowered Its small storm color and hoisted in its stead the large ensigns, which dipped again and again In answer to the salutes of passing craft Stretching down the Hudson awaiting the coming of the Brltisn squadron. In full dress, were the twelve men-of-war of Rear Admiral Evans' fleet. Admiral Evans, accompanied by Rear Ad mirals Davis and Brownson, repaired aboard the Drake at 9:30 o'clock to felici tate the admiral-prince on the birthday of his sovereign. Thirteen guns hailed Ad miral Evans as he went over the side of the Drake. Before the smoke of the salutes had- cleared away, the president's yacht, Mayflower, In command of Captain Cameron McR.
