    Proceeding by the People, on relation of Jacob A. Cantor, against the County Board of Canvassers of the County of New York and others, in which Isaac Spiegel intervened. From an order denying a motion to cancel, vacate, and annul a statement of the result of a canvass by the County Board of Canvassers of the County of New York, and a certificate of election issued by the State Board of Canvassers of the state of New York, relator appeals. Affirmed.
    Argued before INGRAHAM, P. J., and CLARKE, SCOTT, DOWLING, and HOTCHKISS, JJ.
    
      Thomas F. Gilroy, of New York City, for appellant.
    Terence Farley, of New York City, for respondent.
    Leonard J. Obermeier, Deputy Atty. Gen., for State Board of Canvassers.
    A. S. Gilbert, of New York City, for respondent intervener.
   PER CURIAM.

It is well settled that the court has no inherent power to review the action of the election officers or boards of canvassers, but, before it can act, must find authority to do so in the Election Law. Matter of Tamney v. Atkins, 209 N. Y. 202, 102 N. E. 567. We find no provision of law authorizing the court to_ vacate the certificates against which this motion was directed.

Order affirmed, with $10 costs and disbursements to the intervener, respondent Isaac Spiegel.
