After long wrangle Supervisors were
named sad the voting began, but the
Supervisors appointed were powerless to
keep the crowd out OF the enclosure.
There was quarrel az to the right OF
Benry Donohue to vote, and the crowd
getting excited, and the railing being
frail, the re ling gave way.
Just before the close OF the caucus Mr..
Donohue came to the ballot box again,
accompanied by Mr.. Mclaughlin, who
stated that II the young man WAS legally
qualified to vote he had no objections.
This Mr.. McLaughlin's Supervisors Oh.
jected to; but the Chairman told Mr..
