TROUBLE IN H0B0KEN.
Ballot Bexes in Two Precincts Found
with RolIs of Tickets In Them

w tbA hNsstA8 0t EtcABtS In nGFn.
The regular Democratic primaries in
Hoboken last night were conducted in an
orderly manner. A heavy vote was polled
The closest contests were over the mem
bers of the County Committee Those in
the race for County Committeeman in
Hoboken were:-M. ]. Coyle, John Hag-
gerty, James Londrigan, Arthur Nc
Mahon, ]. ]. McGowen, P. j. Gerhardt
James Gilfllin, Michael Crossen, H.
Hoppe, e. J. Ford, w. F. Scheffer, T.
Lyons, w. T. Havens. Charles La Pointe,
Frank La Point and Charles A. Meyer
In the Third precinct of the Second
ward Crossen objected to the ballot box
used by Hoppe, and W. H. Ellis, Jr, on
behalf of Crossen, asked that the interior
of the box be examined and Hoppe OBJ
jected and Ellis and Crossen insisted,
and when the box was opened Ellis put in
his hand and drew forth several rolls of
tickets.
In the Fifth district of the Fourth
ward Detective Owen Quinn was stand
ing near the door when he thought he
saw something peculiar about the box
presented by Arthur Mcmahon. It was
covered with a screen and when Quinn
tore the screen off it was found that holes
had been bored in the side of the box
and in each of these holes was a roll of
tickets. Quinn brought the box to the
station house. The fact that Mcmahon
should have resorted to this was COM
mented on as strange, as he had practically
no opposition.
There was hot fight in the Third
precinct of the Fifth ward between
Charles Meyer and Frank La Point This
was the bitterest struggle in the city.
La Point won.
The successful aspirants for the position
of County Committeeman were:-Auxust
Muench, P. ]. Gerhardt, w Schaffer.
Charles La Point and Frank La Point
H. L. Allen and John ]. Marnell were
nominated without opposition for mem
bers of Assembly.

Mr.. H. C. Post of Fort Scott Kan, was
a caller at Republican headquarters this

well did he run there that Mr.. Lillis ran
one thousand or more votes behind Heller
wining by about 4.00O.
The only fight of Importance for the
Freeholder nomination was in the Second
Ward, where Frank Lelane ran against
Michael Kenny, the present representative
of that ward. Kenny won by 1856 votes.
The Jacob-Lewis crowd assert that there
was crooked work at the primaries, but
no particular precinct has been specified
as yet.
1t was a noticeable fact that P H.
O'Neill did not put in an appearance at
the primaries. 1t was expected that he
would at least vote against the regular
nominees but he did not. 1t is thought
that O'Neill viii be back in harness by
November ilustling for Heller and all the
other regular nominees of the party.

aged 81, one Of the keepers of the instltu-

has always been looked upon as one of the

Armed with these he ran to the main en-

head of Thomas, who was on duty there,
demanded the keys, Thomas refused to
surrender them. whereupon the desperate
young criminal lowered the weapon and
shot the keeper in the lower part Of the

Bryan yesterday demonstrated again that
it made no difference whether his voice

at Springfield, Kenton and Findlay, and
last night made two more in this city. At
Springfield the nominee made Il twenty
minute talk, and at Kcnton he addressed
5000 citizens. The address was made in
the park of the little city and was well
received. The crowd was made up mostly
of farmers, who cheered the utterances of
the nominee heartily. In this city crowd
of 10000 gathered in the school square,
and the cheers that greeted Mr.. Bryan at
times became deafening roar.
