!. ..KELLY'S FINE HAND.
With the Aid of Dorm He Plays
:: Cunning Game.
The Thirty Sixth District Given to Third
- strsat-Kow the Work Was Dene
Barnes Elected.

The stupidity of Wilson's lieutenants,
combined with the cunning OF Martin Kelly, S
two favorite henchmeu, WA. s. Nicholson
and D. S. Dorm, gave to Kelly and Crimmins
the five delegates of the Thirty sixth As
sembly district last night. The manner in
which it was done was in line with the
usual Kelly tactics, and when Martin pulled
his little string Mr.. Dorf and Mr.. Nicholson
danced.
The fine work was done in capyassing the
returns from the Thirty sixth District.
which, it had been ca med, was carried by
the Wilson ticket. So confident was the
latter of the result that he allowed his friends
in the Returning Board to agree that no con-
test should be allowed. Then Ii was dis
covered that the returns from the Thirty
sixth had been tuggled by kelly's heelers,
The officers Of election say that but 159
votes were polIed. and the taIly-sheet
showed 26S. The ballots were lost.
One of the officers of election said: when
the polls were closed 159 votes had been
cast, and Of these the Wilson ticket received
81 and the Kelly ticket IS. There was row
aud an attempt made TO steal the ballot
box. This failed. but they succeeded in de-
StToyng the tally-sheet and substituted one
with 26S votes. This gave the district 10
Kelly"
When the board met last night it went
into executive session, and Dorm NOV ed
that ali contests be ignored This was
agreed to.
Then the districts were taken up, with

AFTER THE COUNT.
Wien the returns were all canvassed
they showed majority Of 800 for w. II. L.
Barnes for delegate at large cut Of a total
vote Of little more than 1900. and also
revealed the fact that Burns, Wilson and
Mahoney had elected 81 delegates out of
the 10.
Then a wrangle Sprang up. and Mahoney
demanded to see the tally-sheeJ of the
1hIrty-sixth District This was bitterly
opposed by Dorm. who with the aid OF
Chairman Nicholson succeeded in holding
the fort for Kelly, who sat behind Nlchol-
son and whispered his instructions.
Mahoney moved to take UP the tallysheet
from the. Thirty-sixth, but was voted
down, McMuiiin of the returning board not
being present and having written to re-
woke his proxy, which was held by Green
wood.
Then Dom. moved to adjourn. and this
was carried with the aid of Kelly, who
voted loudly in the affirmative.
After the adjournment Dorm saw that the
fight had caused an increase of the bitter
feeling, and made an effort to divide the
delegation from the Thirty-sixth. This
would give 55 votes to each faction. a pri-
Yate conference viii be held this morning
to determine the matter. and 1t is quite
likely that the matter will be patched up.
