New York, lune 26—With the practical close of the actual recount ing of the votes cast in the. last mayoralty contest today, caire charges by Clarence J. Shcarn, coun sel for W. R. Hearst, that ballot boxes had been stuffed. When Mr. 'Hearst began his legal contest for the mayor’s office, now occupied by George B. McClellan, lie had a p'u rality of 3,834 votes to overcome. The returns from the contents of only 46 out of a total of 1.985 ballot boxes remained to be recounted when court adjourned today. As the recount stands with the contents of 46 boxes unreported, Mr. Hearst has made a net gain of 863, leaving a plurality of 2.971 for Mr. McClellan I Mr Shcarn said that his client would still be able to prove fraud suf ficiently glaring to invalidate Mr. Mc Clellan's title to his office. Counsel for Mr. McClellan declared that the charge of ballot-box stuffing was baseless.

June 25.—Greasing ‘masts, sea boots and oil skins with ambergris, valued at approximately $400 a pound, sailors on the British j bark Antiope. wasted about $20.000 worth of the stuff, unaware of the value. It was not until yesterday that John Mathiesen master of the vessel, learned that he had let a for tune slip through his fingers A small part of the "grease" had been saved, and this was identified by an Oakland druggist as ambergris. i The Antiope reached here from Newcastle, Australia, a few days ago. On the way up. in latitude 22 south, a I great quantity of ambergris was seen floating on the surface of the ocean, and a calm prevailing, the men man aged to scoop up several b’iekctsfnl of the stuff The "grease" was found excellent, and was used for slushing down the masts, the balance being emnloyed by the men on the oil skins and boots.

TARGET ORDERS SEALED. Atlantic Fleet to Practice Under Un usual Conditions. Washington, June 27 .—This year's target practice of the ships of the Atlantic fleet at Magdalena bay. be ginning about November 1, will be attended with unusual conditions. Each ship is to have sealed instruc tions. to be opened after the estab lishment of the ranges. This will add to the severity of the firing, and will impart an amount of anxiety which will be appreciated as having its advantages. Before the regular target practice begins each ship will steam past the target and fire a limited number of shots in order that the pointers may get practice in shooting, but not until then will the ship's crew know at what angle the vessel will pass the As each target or at what speed ship frequently has a certain amount of ammunition left over which is not tired oil the regular run for various reasons, the decision has been reached that this ammunition will be utilized to carry out special target practice with two or three battleships firing against a a moving target towed by another battleship.
