Fatal Quarrel Between a Ward Poll

KILLED III THE MIDST OF 4 CROWD.
Patrick BraRnigaR Shot to Death by Big Neck
Smth-Beth Men Former Residents
of San EraReiSs.
srecial TO THE MoRNISs Gait

SACRAMENTO, March S.-Just after the
POLLS closed this evening in the First Pre-
cinet Of the First Ward. some words passed
between big Neck" Smith of San Fran
cisco, a ward politician, and Patrick Bran
nigar, piasterer, of this city, when Smith
shot and killed Brannigan. The latter was
considerably under the influence of liquor.
He and SIN it'll had a little quarrel earlier in
the day and Branugan is said TO have
threatened to kill Smith. When they met
this evening some words passed between
them on the sidewalk in the midst OF
crowd, when Smith drew pistol and shot
Brannigan twice, and as the latter fell upon
the sidewalk Smith placed the pistol to his
head and shot the third time. Brannigan
died instantly.
Deceased leaves a widow and five chill
dren. He was native of New York. and
in his younger days prize fighter of some
note. He has always been known as
"Scotty of Brooklyn" Smiths act is re-
gaided as little else than murder, as Bran
nigan had made no demonstration at the
time he was shot. After the first shot,
however. he tried to draw a pistol. but
dropped it when shot the second time.
Smith surrendered TO Officer Gibson. and
was marched 10 the police station. Much
indignation is expressed, and some OF Bran
nigan's friends talk of taking Smith from
Jail and lyDching him. Smith has been
making his home here for some time. He
was very officious about the polls to-day,
and had several quarrels With citizens.
Smiths San Francisco Career.
During his career in this city 'Big Neck"
Smith had numerous rough and tumble
fights in which more or less blood was shed.
but he was generally regarded by his friends
as harmless fellow. His proper name is
George Smith He is a stOcky-built young
man OF about 80 years. unmarried, and has
no particular vocation.
Until SIX years ago, when he went to
Sacramento, Smith was we'll known here as
ward politician, and used to work the
wires to good advantage for his Republican
friends in the Tar Flat district. He was al
all-rngnd sport, ana when not engaged In
political work followed the races and de-
pended on the hOrsemen for livelihood
Pete DOrcy, who knows him well, says
that Smith. while hard man to handle, was
slow to anger, and would stand consider
able annoyance before proceeding to knock
the other fellow out. DOrcy says he has
seen him shot al and stabbed, and other
wise abused, but never knew him 10 use
any weapons except his fists.
Smiths Victim.
Patrick Branngan was well known for
many years IN this city as a pugillSt, but
still as a quietly disposed man. BE was
lab0rer and has lived for several years in
Sacramento, where lie was very popular.
Ills last fight was with Doony harris on
barge on the Sacramento River, but the
police stopped the mill. Brannigan was
known by his SObriquet of ''Scotty from
Brooklyn" and three years ago was work
ing FIR some contractors on the new City
Hail building.
