STUFFERS HARD AT WORK
Tough Gangs at the Regis
trar'S Office.
POLICE CLEAR THE ROOM.
An Affidavit in the Lambert Perjury Case
Disappears in Mysterious
Manner

Stufing the rolls still goes merrily on in
spite OF the presence of the police. All
day Yesterday gang of roughs and heelers
infested the Registrars Office, and a good
days work was done.
The efforts made by the Third-street
bulldozers to stuff the regis trstlon-rolls are
becoming more and more desperate. and at
one time yesterday Registrar Brown was
compelled to ask the policemen Oh duty to
clear the room Of the gang of ex-convicts
who were acting under the direct super
vision of Nike Holden. who was trying to
stuff the rolls of the Seventeenth Senatorial
District for Charley Fancher.
When the policemen were called upon
there was prompt clearance. But during
good portion of the day the gang had done
hard work.
Bill Bell, alias Pistol Bill. was there with
large gang of suffers. So was Windy
Mclean, from the Barbary Coast, who was
endeavoring to put en- ough opium hendS ana
other hard cases on the rolls to elect John
j. Martin, the dive-keeper. to the Senate III
the Twenty-fifth District.
Mike Dolan, a Republican election OIL
cer-elect for the Twenty-ninth District, but
who is registered from the notorious f0lo
House, on Howard street. between First ano
Second, was there with tough gang.
And there we're number OF clerks ana
other officials from the various departments,
spending the time paid for by the city In
looking after the registration OF the men
they cOnld count on to vote solid for the
nominees of the Third-street bosses.
Among others was George Bryant in his
shirt sleeves and with a cigarette in his
mouth, who was supposed to be looking
after the engine in the City Hall, but in
stead was swelling the lists by bringing in
gang of heelers.
Bryant was there nearly the whole OF the
forenoon, leaving his engine to run Itself.
One of the nuisances around the new City
Hall is the swarm of schoolboys who poster
the life out of every one having business IN
any part of the building for an election card.
They are there in the morning and IN the
afternoon, and again in the evening. In
fact they are there at all times OF the day
in larger or smaller numbers.
David Nagle, one of the United States
Deputy Marshals on duty at the reglstI a.
tion offices, was very indignant yesterday
over the statement in the Chronicle that he
was a Democrat
81 voted the Republican ticket before
Mike de Young ever did and l have voted
il constantly. l have never voted any
other and l never SHALL" he said yester-
day.
