Penitentiary Looms Darkly
Before the Allied Suffers

a majority will In any event, McNab
has the ear of District Attorney Lang
don. and there are legal ways to the
ultimate end that do not lead through
the channels of the law that wind from
the Grand Jury room to the doors Of
the penitentiary. McNab is after the
suffers and here are some OF the dis
closures that have reused him to the
fight.
BELLS GANG VOTES.
When election morning came there
emerged from the saloon of the noto-
rious Billy Bell. 427 Seventh street,
forty-flve as enthusiastic machine ad-
herents as ever disgraced an American
metropolis. While this place is moth
ing but a plain grogshop and pretends
to be nothing else save that in the rear
are few hunks that a Chinese would
shy at, it boasted OF these forty-five
voters as permanent residents Every
one of them voted. the majority against
the regular Democrat ticket That so
palpable a fraud was not discovered
by the Election Commission and moved
against before the outrage was con-
sammated is fact beyond understand
ing.
McNab says he will at first proceed
against those who voted from this
place With this announcement it is
quite probable that the guests at the
Hotel Bell will largely and rapidly di-
minish. The attention of the Police
Commission will also be called to the
fact that instead of running a straight
saloon Bell is conducting a suffers
hostelry- This the commission NAV not
like. as it granted Bell license to
serve drinks only to transient guests:
1t did not for minute believe he would
MI his place with hunks from, which
ward heelers could call for drinks to be
served at the expense of the machine
that so comfortably housed them
through the emergency of the primary.
