REPUBLICAN VOTES CAST.
PRIMARIES HELD WITH FEW CONTESTS

|
TRICT-oFFICERs AND DELEGATES CHOSEN
There was more stir and excitement than usual
| in connection with the Republican primary
elections held throughout the city last night
! Lively contests took place in half dozen dis
trcts. but in only three of them, the AAlst,
| XVIIth and Vth did the opposition assume
| formidable proportions In only ohe' the ''h'
was there any disorder.
| The struggle in the XXIst between the friends
Of Mr.. Whitney and Mr.. Hess exciting,
but good nature prevailed ana the result
| in favor Of Mr. Hess, was accepted
with satisfaction. The friends of Mr. Hess desired
to have it distinctly understood that it was no
personal attack on Mr. Whitney, who is now ex-
ccedingly ill., but purely difference of opinion
a matter of politics and nothing more. The fight
| lasted from 0 o'clock in the morning until that
| hour At night There were 800 votes polled, the
largest ever cast at a primary election in this dis
| trict The ticket known as the 1IeSs-Leary
ticket. which was headed by Elihu Root was
elected il receiving 1868 Of the 500 votes cast. or
| this number III were scratched tickets.
In the With District the contest was marked py
| unusual bitterness, and resulted IN the possible
| removal OF one OF the inspectors of election Inc
| faction headed by Frank j. Carroll and John =.
Dodd nominally trumphed over the regular ticket
| lac vote Of or TO Z out of total enrolment Of
| 5g7. as recently revised by the County Commit
| foo Dodd and Carroll at the last enrolment
| were opposcd 10 each other. Carroll came out
ahead in that contest. his chief Lieutenant then
| being Audcy j. Mooney. Since then differences
bovc arisen between the two The specific cause
Of the trouble at the primary, however, arose
from the presence at the district headquar-
tors No l23 West Iouston-st., of Edward
+ Kincrlc who had been appointed ms one
| of tbc inspectors Of election at special meeting
| Of the County Executive Committee on Saturday
night kncrc was appointed in place Of Alex
andcr Mcqueen, who was removed upon his own
confession it is said that he had supported Peter
Mitchell, the Tammany nominee for Civil Justlcd
AT the last election Mcqueen. however. had been
the chairman of the Board. and objection was made
70 Kincrlcs claim that his appointment carried
ee championship with it, Three of the five in
spcctors disputed this claim, and selected Peter
AIata. rs chairman. The Carroll-Dodd faction
were willing to admit Kincrle as an Inspector
although it was said that he did not show any
credentials He insisted upon being chairman
however. and attempted TO stop the voting, By
placing his hands over the slots in the ballot
boxes Mr. Arata then ordered the police to
remove him.
The accounts Of what followed differ materially,
but Kincrc was arrested by Officer Robert
Reid. and taken To the Frlncc-st
police station Sergeant Cruise refused
10 lock him up, however, and he ran back TO
the polling place Then he said that he had been
rupturrd. and Captain Thompson. the commander
Of tho precinct advised him to 20 10 hospital
promising 10 send for an ambulance at once. He
refused tins assistance, however, and walked 10
his home. at 80. Il Narick-st ON the way, it
was said. he fell down from exhaustion, and
alarming rumors were spread regarding his con
dition. Dr. Iarmcr Of No. 1903 Narck-st. was
called in and ne gave strict orders that no one
should be- permitted To talk to the patient lie
wade no report TO the police, however, and Cap
tain Thompson was unable To- find him last
evening
The police say that no unnecessary violence was
used in removing klncrc, and udcule the idea
that be WIS seriously hurt. but The Allen
told - Tribune reporter that klncrlc was treated
IN the most brutal manner. AFTER hlncrlc went
away the voting was done hF the opposition.
