A CLOSE RACE.
That Between O'NeiI and McMuIIen
for Sheriff.
O'Neil Has the Best of 1t So Far,
But NIcaIullen Does Not
Surrender.

Nothing has transpired since yesterday
morning to change the result of the cleo
ton in this city and county, as then un-
derstood, except that George McAlullen,
the Republican candidate for Sheriff,
claims that the election of Thomas
O'Neil, his Democratic opponent, is not
assured, and that it will require the Off
cial canvass of the votes to determine the
result.
AS the matter stood yesterday O'Neil
had an apparent plurality of some fifty
votes over McMullen, but the latter
claimed to have advices that would ma
terially reduce that number. He also
claimed that in one precinct large num-
Der of ballots had been thrown out be-
cause of informalities in connection with
candidates for other offices. If this be
true, the election officers were wrong, as
the law specifically declares that errors of
that kind shall apply only to the offices
affected. O'Neil and his friends, how
ever, feel confident of his election.
Two errors We're made in the totals for
Sheriff, as published in the RECORD
UNION table yesterday. A typographical
error gave McMullen 1920, whereas it
should have read 5000. O'Neil was given
3,10S, instead of 3,702. When these foot
ings were made there were three pre-
cincts that had not been heard from,
leaving-according to the returns at hand
% Neil in the lead by eighty-two, as
suming the precinct returns TO be correct
Two of the missing precincts give Nc
Mullen siXty-nine and O'Neil thirty
eight This would leave the vote with
only the American River bridge precinct
out)-McMullen 1863, O'Nen $40, or
hfty-one in O'Neil's favor.

AWFULLY POOR SHOOTING.
A StoCktonian Pumps Five Bullets at
a Sacramentan,
At One Yard Range, But Only One
Took Effect-The Wounded
Mans Statement.

Thomas O'Connor, Roadmaster for the
Southern Pacific Company between Sac
ramento and Lathrop, was shot at the
Stockton depot yesterday by Timothy
Lynch, formerly a section foreman run
ming out Of Stockton.
Five shots were fired by Lynch, four
of which struck O'Connor, but only one
seriously wounded him. Three of the
shots struck OConnor in the back and
grazed his side, making only slight flesh
wounds, while the fourth struck him in
the left hip, and passing through lodged
in the groin.
The shooting took place near the depot
at Stockton, at the corner of Sacramento
and Market streets, and in the presence
of large number OF witnesses.
After the shooting Lynch ran into the
Antelope saloon, threw his revolver, a
32-caliber weapon, on the bar, and ex-
claimed, so ii is said:
IF l haven't killed him, I'll do it
yetw
lie was Immediately arrested by Officer
Welsh of Stockton and taken to Jail. On
the way he is said to have repeatedly ex-
claimed that he would kill the - -
- if he had not already done so.''
O'ConnOr, who lives here, was brought
to the Railroad Hospital last evening,
and was seen by a RECORD UNION re-
porter, to whom he gave the following
version of the shooting:
O'COnnor said he discharged Lynch
two months ago from the section for the
neglect of his duties. Since then he had
heard several times that Lynch threat
ened his life and had said that he (O'Con-
nor would die with his boots on"
~,
Lynch has been in Oakland and san
Francisco, until four or five days ago,
when he went to Stockton. VConnor
says Lynch was undou btedly lying in
wait for him when he went to the train
yesterday. He saw Lynch Just as he got
within a few yards of him, and as Lynch
stepped in his way he walked around
him.
As he passed. Lynch asked: "What
about those letters you have been writing
about me?"
O'Connor says he had written no let
ters, and thinking Lynch merely wished
to begin a quarrel, he passed on without
a reply.
He lad taken but a step or two when
Lynch drew his revolver and fired the
five shots in rapid succession, the re-
yolver being a self-cocker. He says
Lynch was to all appearances perfectly
sober, and chat he deliberately tried to
kill him, and shot him when his back
was turned.
O'Connor's wounds are not dangerous,
and his physician says he viii be ali
right in a few weeks. His escape from
death was a miraculous one, as Lynch
was but little more than an arms length
from him when he fired, and evidently
intended to kill him.
O'Connor is an old and popular EN-
ploye of the company, and well liked
generally.

SUPERVISORS IN SESSION.
New Roads That are Wanted Out in
the Country.
A Petitioners Bright Prospects-LaSv-
yer Wharton's Medicine Bill
Election Officers Salaries.

The Board of Supervisors met yester-
day. All Of the members were present,
and there was large crowd in the lobby
of persons who served as election officers
and who are desirous of getting their
money. The board will not, however,
audit these bills until tomorrow, and the
election officers Will not get their money
until Monday.
The first matter taken up yesterday
was a petition from q. ]. Furnish and
others for new county road in Alabama
Township in the vicinity of Dry Creek
As the petitioners had forgotten to hand
in the customary bond with the petition
the latter was pigeon-holed.
Supervisor Jenkins. Chairman of the
Committee on Roads and Bridges, was
called upon for a report. He said that
work was progressing on the Putney
bridge and some others spanning the
Costumes. All would be in good condi-
ton for the winter treshets. All of the
! bridges, he said, had been found to be III
worse condition than was expected.
The petition OF l.. Frasier and others
Tor new county road near COnley sta
ton, in the southeastern part OF the
county, was then taken up for considers
ton.
Mr.. Frasier addressed the board in be-
half of the petition. He said the road
would benefit many farmers in that
locality and would be great convenience
TO children going to school.
IN answer to question by Chairman
Greer, iras!er admitted that he had no
children, but he added that prospects III
that direction were very good"
1t had been ascertained that the road,
including a necessary bridge, would cost
the county some $500, aud the Super
Yisors were 10th to contract that much
expense 1T this time. SO they laid the
matter over for a month and informed
MIR. trasier that they would have To
have more substantial assurances that the
road was really needed than had been
given them thus far.
Z. Il. Wharton, the attorney, presented
a claim to the board for $50 and then ex-
planned. 1t appears that some time ago
Thomas Richards, WI 0 was was 4 stran-
ger to Wharton. was taken i'll with
typhoid fever and brought TO Wharton s
house by man who said he was a friend
and would pay all expenses Of richards
illness. Richards was too sick to be re-
moved 10 the county Hospital and fin
sly died. he friend" never returned
and y nartOn is out the amount of his
claim for medicine, doctor and nurse. The
board took the matter under considera-
ton.
County License Collector Bates reported
that be had collected -, ll6 50 during the
month of October.
The board then took up the regular
monthly bills against the county and
spent The remainder Of the day in eXami-
ming and auditing them. An adjourn
ment was then taken until to-day.

A PAINTERS FALL
Richard Shay Precipitated Thirty Feet
by the Breaking OF IA Rope.

Richard Shay Precipltated Thirty Feet
by the Breaking of Rope.
About IL O'Clock yesterday morning a
painter named Richard Shay, engaged in
painting the Christian Church, on Tenth
street, between o and p, was precipitated
about thirty feet to the pavement by the
breaking of one of the ropes holding the
scaffold on which he stood.
He was picked up in an unconscious
condition, but soon revived and was
taken to the Receiving Hospital.
DR.. Nichols, the City Physician, exam
ined him, and it was found that he had es-
capped without broken bones. The doctor.
however, pronounced him severely
shaken by the fall, and it was thought
probable that he was internally injured.
He was removed TO the County Hospital
for treatment.
Shay was working on the front of the
tower when the accident happened and
fell feet foremost. He would have been
instantly killed on the cement pavement
had there not been an empty box stand
ing there, on which he struck. 1t was a
light affair, but served to break the force
OF the fall somewhat.
only few minutes before the accident
occurred there was another man on the
swinging scaffold with him, and he is at
loss to account for the breaking of the
rope with but one-half the weight it had
previously sustained.

Mr.. Cunningham Was Not Dead, Nor
Was He Dangerously III.
The rapid and shrill blowing of a po-
lice whistle, and a man PROSTATE on the
pavement in front of the Florence Mis-
sion, attracted q large crowd about 10
o'clock last night.
One man rushed wildly through the
crowd crying, 81 know himl He has
taken poison! l saw him take itn'
Half dozen policemen were promptly
on hand, and endeavored to keep the
crowd back to give the supposed diving
man air, and a hack was summoned,
All this time the poor man lay flat on
his back on the stone pavement, motion
less and apparently dying.
Four officers finally carried him to q
hack and got him safely aboard. Then
he suddenly revived and began to fight
like a shoulder-striker, and was beyond
question alive and doing quite as well
as could be expected.
At the Receiving Hospital he kicked
over a cot and soon convinced the officers
that he was full of fighting whisky, and
that if he was poisoned it was by that
article.
lie was recognized as one Thomas
Cunningham, and his reputation was
such that he was locked up in a cell
pending his recovery.
He called wildly for someone to give
him chance ana a cigarette, and then
subsided and was soon snoring me-
lodiously.

GAVE THEM A RUN.
The officers Have Difficulty Catching
q Butte Fugitive.

A telegram was received at police head
quarters yesterday from Sheriff Ander-
son Of Butte County, asking the officers
here to be on the lookout for man
named James Morgan, who is wanted in
Oroville for embezzlement.
Officer Lowell located the man later in
the day in the Western Hotel, but Nor
gan recognized him and managed to give
the otfier the slip. Lowell was Joined by
Officer Ahern and the two went to the
depot, where they found Morgan again.
Once more the fellow ran and then there
was lively chase. Special Officer Hi
Greer happend to be at the depot with his
ambulance and started his trotter in the
wake of the fleeing Morgan. Lowell and
Ahern made the best time they could and
managed to keep the fugitive in sight all
the time. Greer caught up with Morgan
in the alley between Second and Third. J
and K streets, and drawing his pistol
