NEW YoREfNoy. 8 Tho election was
remarkable for the general auietuae
that prevailed in .he city despite the
intense PARTY feeling that ran at white
heat Id every district from the Battery
to spuyten Dyvel.
With the exception of few ordinary
encounters there was no happening that
could be called riotous in any section.
A tour Of the districts by close observer
resulted in NO discoveries more striking
theu the extraordinary serious deter
mined mood the average voter seemed
TO be in.
Men who never dream of taking
breakfast before o'clock in the morn
ing were everywhere st the polls before
they were legally open for voters. They
stood In the Chilly air reading the pa
spers, calmly waiting till the time came
for business to begip in the big district.
Onsthe west side there were long lines
OF men who stood for hours without
being able to- get anywhere near the
polls until two or three hours after they
had got place in the single files on the
sidewalk.
At one time in some Of the brown
stone districts, where the Republican
strength is noted, many OF the voters
became suspicious as to the real cause
of the slow movement ahead Of them
and at the ballot boxes and feelings
grew stronger that the delay was caused
by the malicious inactivity" of their
enemies.
In many instances there was some
basis for this view of the situation and
when itbeosme apparentto the specta-
tors and the Watchers that too much
time was being taken up by the s'slow
coachsSisss assa was CRY OF ''get !

Salem avenue last night, and the cleo
ton returns were received and placed

stated that they were not overly we'll
pleased with the election in the State,
but consoled themselves with the re-
turns from New York and West Vir-
GINA. The defeat of thoir party in this
State was attributed, in large meas.
ure, to the Walton election law, which,
they claimed, was made to defraud the
illiterate voters

of Refuge, Randall's Island.

Inmates Vaccinatcd.

DR.. Doty, chief Of the Bureau OF Con-
tagious Diseases, this morning officially
announced that smallpox had broken
out in the House of Refuge on Randall's S
Island.
There are five hundred inmates
of the institution. all boys, VIII Sc
ages range from twelve to twenty years.
DR.. Doty hopes, however, to prevent
any great spread Of the disease and this
morning sent a corps of men to the
island to thoroughly fumigate and dis
infect the House of Refuge and vacci-
nate every inmate.
The first patient to be stricken with
smallpox in the institution is Abraham
Noorhis. a lad of thirteen. He had been
confined to the hospital ward for the
last three days, i'll with a disease be-
lieved to be chicken poX.
Last night. however, he developed sus-
picious symptoms. The physicians iso-
lated him in room over the hospital
ward, and promptly notified the Board
of Health Office
Inspectors responded and pronounced
young Noorhis's illness smallpox. Late
last night he was removed to North
Brother Island.
The inmates of the Housa Of Refuge
were vaccinated very thoroughly four or
five months ago, but in View OF Noorhis )
Illness to-day's vaccination was ordered
as matter of precaution.

Actress Adeline Waters Brutally
Assaulted in Jersey City.
Several Men Held Her Prisoner in
an Empty House.
Rescued by the Police and Now
Thought to Be Dying.

The police of Jersey City early this
morning caught a number OF ruffians
red-handed IN an attempt crimnally to
assault n young woman in a lonely lot
on the corner Of York and Hudson
streets.
About o'clock word was sent to the
First Precinct Police Station that a
woman was being murdered in the lot.
officers Cody and Cannon we're
despatched to the place. When they ar
rived at the scene Cody went in at the
rear of the lot and Cannon in by the
front
In the lot is an unoccupied house.
Standing on the stoop of the house the
policeman saw a woman struggling to
free herself from a number OF men.
When the officers appeared three men left
the crowd and succeeded in making their
escape over side fence. The rest of the
men were rounded up and put under
arrest.
The woman was Adeline Waters. an
actress. playing with the Mckee Ran
Kin Company, which appeared in this
city week ago. Her clothing was
torn almost from her back, her hair
dishevelled and she was almost dead
from fright
The officer took her and the pris-
oners to the police station, where the
woman was too overcome to make a
statement. She was almost in a state
of collapse. This morning the men were
arraigned before Justice O'Donnell who
held them in 5000 bail each for trial.
The prisoners are Henry Fagan. a
fireman on the steamship Alaska, lying
at the foot of Grand street; John Con-
nelly, a switchman. Of 8S4 Garfield street;
Michael Klugens:iel, of 403 Summit ave-
nue., and William Gurr, of l07 Adams
street.
Miss Waters was in such a condition
that the police sent her to the City Hos
pital. wher she IS in a critical condi-
ton from shock. AS she has recently
been III the physicians at the hospital
fear she cannot recover.
Miss Waters Is a handsome brunette.
thirty-three years old. When the Mckee
Rankin combination was playing here
&. week ago she became i'll in the rail-
load station and had to be taken to
Taylor's Hotel. where she has been
since under the care of Dr. j. j. Nivin
She Hdu peei TAKING morphine TO aHay
her pains and 1t is supposed that she be-
came delirious last night and left the
hotel unknown to the doctor and wan
dering away, fell into the hands of the
men who assaulted her.
The police are looking for the three
men who escaped.
1t is not many weeks ago that the
public was Mortified by the report of the
finding of Miss May Barrowcliffe. a
music teacher with a fractured skull
In vacant lot in Jersey City.
1t Is possible that there is some con-
nection between that assault and the
one upon Miss Walters, as far as the
perpetrators are concerned.
