Notes: A re-count by the Elections and Qualifications Committee produced the totals Jones 1058, Richards 1062, Informal 24. (LAVP 1898 (2) Vol.1 p.421)
Source: SMH 28 July 1898, p.7, reported as incomplete. However, these totals were used in the Year Book of Australia (1899) and in the petition investigated by the Elections and Qualifications Committee, and the totals match those of the Statistical Register, suggesting this was the final result.
