   PER CURIAM.

We think that the requirement of the statute (Election Law [Consol. Laws 1909, c. 17]) that the oaths of the officers of the convention be filed is directory; but the proof of the taking of the statutory oaths presented at the Special Term was not sufficient.

The order should therefore be affirmed.
