THE NEW YORK PRIMARIES.
Lively Times for Many of the
Leaders.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19-John C. Shsehan
won his fight for the leadership of the Ninth
Assembly district az today's primaries
When the result was announced in the
Pequod Club, which was crowded with his
supporters they gave three rounds of cheers
for him and three rounds Of Kisses for
Richard Croker, who had attempted to turn
Mr.. Sheshan out. Having given vocal ex-
preston to their sentiments over the vic
tory, number Of them went down TO the
club where a large picture of Mr.. Croker
hangs on the wall. They turned the pic
ture to the wall and then gave three groans.
The fight in the Ninth did not bring out
so heavy vote as was expected. With
S.701 enrolled Democrats only 2,S62 votes
were cast. Il was impossible 10 obtain the
exact figures tonight. but the returns re-
csivsd by the Goodwin Smith faction
showed that Mr.. Sheehan had in the neigh
borhood of 1900 votes. against 1890 for Mr..
Smith, and 12s cast for the Goodwin Smith
candidates for the general committee on the
ticket headed by Mr.. Sheehan's name.
There were Republican contests in only
Stewart the recently deposed leader,
sought 10 rehabilitate himself by defeating
the organization candidate, Richard Nj.
Lush. While Stewart and Lush were cam
paigning through the district somebody
told +. Norton Goddard, known in the dis
trict as a wealthy man, that he had
chance TO beat both the other candidates.
He concluded he would try and accordingly
entered upon vigorous campaign. 1t was
not thought that anybody took Goddard's
candidacy seriously. Common report had
it that he was the good thing in the can
vass. When the returns were in last night
the result was: Goddard, 523; Stewart, 271;
Lush, 264.
This is regarded as a defeat for Senator
Platt and Mr.. Quigg. In Brooklyn the Re
publican organization forces were all along
the lire. The fight in the First Assembly
. district was the hottest and most impor-
iaat. Colonel Dady was pitted against r.
| Ross Appleton. and although the latter has
larger voting constituency. Coloaei Dady
won By majority of 237. In the Second
Assembly District former Sheriff Butling
met his political Waterloo at the hands of
William c. Beattie.
There were seven or eight ether contests,
but they were between the rival leaders in
the district, and the prestige of the or
| ganization management was not invo vel
The only Democratic primary contest in
Brooklyn which excited any spe,ial inter-

Nine Firemen of the Almirante

By strange prank OF fate, nine spaniards who

to perform this service for hattleship that did

Kid Mccoy knocks Out His Man In
Six Rounds.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19-Steve oDonnell,
boxing Instructor at Harvard University,
who has always. been considered a master
of pugilistic science, although never rated
as first-cIass fighter, was made to look
like an inexperienced novice by Kid Mccoy
at the Broadway Athletic Club tonight. The
battle only lasted six rounds, and in that
time ODonnell took a frightful beating.
He was finally knocked into state Of COM
piete submission. and when he had been
counted out he was unrecognizable. Nc
Coy could probably have ended the fight in
jig time. as he so clearly outclassed the
former Australian that the latter had nc

heavy wagons that pass over it are broken
and in some cases horses have tumbled
