SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL
REDWOOD CITY. Sept. 2S--Carl J.:
Coburn. Supervisor from the Fifth Dis
trict, is here TO contest ,yhe- primary
election held IN, Pescadero last Satur-
day. and IL possible to seat hts delega-f
tion in the Republican convention to
be held in San Mateo Saturday. Co.
burn alleges that fraudulent methods
were employed TO defeat his delegation.
and as proof offers the count o. the
election which shows that 15s votes.
were cast at the primaries, while at
the last general election only 1S1 votes
were east. This. he says. only leaves
three Democrats in the district, which
does not hold good owing TO the num-
ber OF votes cast at the Democratic
primaries.
The fight for the nomination OF Su-
pervisor in the Fifth District has been
hotter than at any election held in this
county for some time. Three candt-
dates entered the field. and at the pri-
maries held last Saturday each -candi-
date entered his ticket and worked for
his delegation. Carriages were sent out
and brought voters from. afar. young
men whose age was doubtful casting
their frst votes. At the close of the
polls Edgar Shaw's delegation had re-
ceived hfty-eight votes, Coburn's fifty
six and Dr. Blackburn's forty-four-
There was so much fraud IN the
election. Coburn asserts that the. cleo
tion clerks refused to sign the re-
turns. but returned them to the coun-
ty central committee with an explain.
alton for acting so.
The county committee. refused to
take the matter up. but promised Co
burn that the election viii be exam
ined into by the convention before the
delegation from Pescadero is seated.
At that time the returns will be opened.
and if the election board has refused
to sign them, as Coburn asserts. fur
ther action may be taken which might
allow one OF the other delegations to
be seated.

LICK BOYS R0UT
CARR's GANG.

The routing of Brick Carr, swash-
buckler OF the street corners, who has
well known police record. and the
Potrero gang of hooiigans. of which he
is the acknowledged leader was the
outcome of a lively street fight that
kept the Mission district in consider
able excitement yesterday afternoon.
The football team of the 'oS class of
the Lick School was practicing in a
vacant lot on Potrero avenue, between
Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, when
Carr came along.
''Youse don't pass that ball right,
Johnnies," he said to the football play
ers. Lend it to me a second and I'll
show youse the correct dope"
The Lick boys refused to receive any
instruction from Carr, and to register
his disapproval Of their reticence he
seized two of them and banged their
I heads together. The youngsters irnma-
diately rushed for Carr, and he
knocked them down again. Then the
whole crowd took a hand and Carr re-
treated.
In few minutes he was back with
about a dozen of his gang The Lick
boys were game, however. and a pitch
ed battle was soon in progress The
/ hooligans had much the better of it in
size and weight, but more boys from
the school arrived and went to the as
sistance of the football squad So de-
terminedly did they battle that Carr
and his gang were obliged to fee.
Carr himself was badly battered Div
ing around a corner with his scattered
forces he disappeared from view, to
return again in the course of two or
three minutes astride horse and flash
| ing revolver. He rode the horse full
tilt at the crowd of Lick boys and be-
gan firing. His aim was either bad
or he fired only over their heads

HISTORIC VESSEL

A recent statement To the effect that
the original vessel which brought the
intrepid Ponce de Leon to Florida, had
been discovered buried in mud and

bastian river about a mile from St.

not to say disbelief. A further investi-
CATION Of the rumor has established the
fact ,nat on the land of +. Sanchez, an
old Spanish galeon in fair state Of

river. Sufficient excavation has been

eral construction of the ship. 1t is built

REPAIR SHOPS
COME HERE:
LAR Rebuilding to be Done in
Fort Pierce
WORK COMMENCED
W. j. 'rowell is Placed in Charge as
Foreman OF Work twenty-five Men
to be Employed.

another important move for the ben
emf OF Fort Pierce is the decision of tho
officials OF the Florida East Coast rail
way to establish at this place branch
OF their car building shops for the pur-
pose OF repairing cars.
The officials of the road have found
that 1t is not practicable to transport
all cars for repairs to the shop at St..
augustine, neither have they room or
equipment there to handle all such
work, and Fort Pierce has been selected
as the place to establish the branch as
1t will be located at about the middle of
the line when completed to Key West.
Last week W. l.. Singleton, master
car builder of the road, was in Fort
Pierce, the guest of N. J. Trowel, and
while here selected the place for the
beginning of operations, and Mr..
Trowell was summoned to st. Angus.
tine to complete arrangements.
1t is the intention of the railroad
company to at once erect a store room,
20 40 feet, which will be used to house
the tools, hardware and paints. Work
has already started in preparing the
land for this building, at the point be-
tween the repair track and the railroad
Y, and two carloads of lumber and a
carload of materials and tools is ex.
pected daily. When this arrives the
building will be Immediately erected,
and the work of repairing cars will be
begun on the track adjoining the store
room, and later car-repairng shed
will be erected.
N. j. Trowell has been placed in
charge as foreman of the repair work,
and he will be assisted by twenty-five
men painters, carpenters and helpers.
Mr.. Trowell has already engaged eleven
nen, and will fill the quota as soon as
he work progresses.
This is another enterprise for Fort
fierce that will add to its population
md the extent of its business. Now if
We can secure canning factory and
rate mill our immediate necessities
viii be alleviated.
Again, another necessity is brought
o the front. Where are all these people
o be housed? Is there no method of
from ten to twenty-five house ,
