SAN FRANCISCO. September 27th.-Vot-
ing at the Republican primary election
began at noon to-day in the 176 pre-
cincts in various parts of the city. Crowds
OF young men started IN early, going from
place to place and asking for representa-
ton" They claimed to be in various
interests. Some wore Republican buttons
and some did not. The appointed officers
at the precincts were instructed to allow
no one beside themselves within the room
where the voting was going on.
At the Fifth Precinct, Thirty-fifth Dis
trict, on Tehama street, near Third, half
dozen young men came up shortly after
noon and demanded to be admitted to the
Office where the ballot-box and election
officers were. When they were refused
they made grand rush for the front win
dow, and party at the same time tried to
break in the rear door. Police officers
Murphy and Mahoney had just arrived.
When they saw the trouble they pulled
their clubs, and the attacking party soon
retired with several sore heads.
A PoLLING-PLAcE RAIDEp.
About five minutes before noon, before
the police officers had arrived at the voting
place of the Fourth Precinct, Thirty ninth
DISTRICT Stevenson street, near Seventh a
party OF twenty young men came up and
asked to put some of their number within.
County Committeeman ]. J. Dunn, who
was in charge of the polls, was on the
sidewalk, he had just sworn in two in
spectors, who were within. He promptly
refused to allow any one else inside and
tCl fha axr-1 30
was to seize him from behind, and
REVOLVER DISPLAYED
Made him quiet. They quickly smashed
in the windows, knocked out protecting
bars and then jumped in the Office, driving
out the appointed officials. Dunn saw
them put lot of ballots into the box and
proceed TO take in all the votes that began
to appear.
He told the police officers that the men
in charge had no right within, but the
officers took the matter as Joke and Dunn
then went down to the County Committee
headquarters. Dunn says the assaulting
crowd, in his judgment were Democratic
lambs" out for holiday. The contest
in this precinct was bitter one between
Messrs. Heney and Langstaff.
SIMILAR DIsGRAoEFUL SCENE
Was enacted about the same time on Sec
ond street, near Howard, in the Fourth
Precinct, Thirtieth District. A crowd that
was refused admission made an assault on
the polls with axes and clubs. They beat
In the doors, and one man narrowly es-
capped injury from one of the axe-blows
The inspectors fled with the ballot-box,
and the police appeared just in time to save
trouble. Affairs were so mixed up by this
incident that the polls in this precinct were
not regularly opened until about O'Clock.
