THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES. A Lively Oontest in Most of the ‘Wards of the Oity. BROATCH PROBABLY BEATEN. Build zing and Repeating Indulged in By the Followers of Biroatoh, Who Had No Regard For the Law. Yeaterday's Primary Battls, The republican primaries to elect dele- gates to the republican city convention, which takes place today, were held yesterday afternoon, The contest was a spirited one, and would have been one-sided as against the mayor had it not been for the illegal'voting of gangs of graders and laborers who had been im- pressed into service 'he disgraceful spectacle of these men, under paid overseers, in dirt wagons, carry- nlls, carriages and motor cars, traveling rom one precinet to another and voting for Broatcl's supporters, was, in the estimation of old residents, never equaled in this city, AlL the graaers in the city were excu from work and spent the aay 1n casting ille gal votes in all the wards, ‘Tho first instanc Was that at the Fifth wara when 200 graders from ‘I hirty-fourth street rodo to the polls and voted Broach tickets which wera given them by their employers, ‘They then rode to the Sixth ward and subsecquently to the other wards in the city in which the act was repeated. Tho witerworks company also had a gang of men which it voted promiscuously throughout the city. These men wereunder the direction of Superintendent Wiley, who, when taken to task for encouraging the high- handed outrage, said that it wasthe company and not he who was responsible for the act. The electric light company, 100, ok a hand in the business. It had two large ryalis in which it | them to the several poiling places of the city, where the men voted for Broatch. Duff Green had control of a gang of re- peaters, who work on paving jobs when they are not stuffing ballots. These he boldly and flagrantly led to vote in at least half a dozen wards,, Ho tried to repeat his work in the Fourth ‘ward, but found men a little sharper than himself who frustrated his de- sign. Tne street commissioner with his gang of men increased nearly ten-fold, joined in the general ballot sigfling. In fact there was scarcely a contractor, o puplic ofticor who desired Broatch's favor, or an aspirant for positions in s gift who cid ot take part in the outrageous atlempt t rob the people of their right by the most ehameful and reprebedsible prostitution of the right of suffrage, FINST WARD. There were 281 votes polled for the anti-Baoatch or Hu | ticket, as was called, and 204 ware cast for the Opposi- tion or mixed ticket. The followiug are the delegates chosen: William Upherson, Pete Boyson, W. A. Kelley, John Hooza, J. W. Lytle, Jonn Mathieson, Ernest Staht.

This was Broatch's own ward. Grading gangs were not allowed to vote without showing that their members were residents of the wasd uud, as a conse- quence, the shameful scencs which were elsewhero enacted were hore 10 a large ex- tent preventea.

There was more or less wrangling at these polls ull the afternoon, aud matters looked gaito threatening when the Broateh follow~ pra drove up their carry-alls with water- works hunds. There were thirty-seven of them, and after & long acd heated contro- versy they were allowed 1o vote, SEVENTH WARD, Tho contest was very close in this ward, pnd friends of both tickets were anxiously watching the dudges counting the ballots. The count showed that the iroatch ticket haa recoived 352 votes and the unpledged, or pnti-Broiteh, ticker had 383 votes. The fol- Jowing is a list of the delegutes from this wara: H, C. Akin, J.

Both men were taken to the station and dismissed, there being no chargo against them, The credentials of the anti-Broatch dele- gation were signed by the judges and o con- will result. . Edwards, the man who s alleged to have stolen the nll book, suid to a reporter last h that he had all the documents aud that wlhien the proper time came he would pro- duce them. He usserted that when the * eount was finished that he secreted the book because he did not want & “howling mob" 1o get hold of it.

Boyd in regard to the question of the mayoralty, was asked by a reporter whethier Mr. Boyd would run. In answer he said: “I can say that Mr. Boya, after leav- ing Omaba and within the past few days, wrote a letter which I received Tuesday last upon the sabject of his candiducy. Within tho last few days ho has been strongly urged by many influential ciuzens to say that he would be a canaidate. He, however, de- clined to do this, but in his lotter to me said that if upon consultation with Dr., ler we agreea that certain conditions isted, malking 1t necessary for the good of the city and tho party that he should “accept the romination, ho would do so. I saw Dr. Miller yesterday at Seymour Park. After roading Me.

Meyers, the ex-Thirteenth saloon keep- er, is again in trouble. He was arrested Tues day night by Oficer McMahon for attempt- ink to pass forged checks, Ho was first dis- covered 1n Balduff's on Sixteenth street, with a forged check for $40. The clerk re- fused to cash it, and then Meycrs wanted to borrow £5 on the check but was not accom- modated. He then attempted the same trick on Dalzell but was foiled again, He then went to Sherman & McConnell's drug store and endeavored to work the same racket, He was shadowed by the officerund as soon as he suw the policeman he threw away a uumber of ehecks and clambering into his buggy drove hurriedly away. » T'he omcer headed him off dnd placed him under arrest, Meyers resisted, sna, 1 the scuffle, fell out of his buggy, but got up and started away on a fast ru McMahon fol- lowed and overtook him, e again resisted, and o desperate fight ensued, McMahon and his elub coming out winners, A(ter this Mc- Mahon got into the buggy with Meyers, and whileon their way to the station Meyers at- tompted to escape several times, but was fin- ally placed behind the bars.

The Unclean Doctor Tried to Got the Husband’s Money Too, But Failed — Professional Confidence Shamefally Abusod. They Know Him in Winona. The Winona, Minn., papers are interesting themselves in “Dr.”” Slominski's record dur- ing bis recent residence there. The Daily Republican in that city, Nov. 16, contained the following: ““Slominski came to Winona in the summer of 1887 and remmned only a few months, but in that short time he mado a recordof an un- desirable kind and was finally followed to Duluth by a married woman who had been his patient. The woman in question was the wifeof Mr. Jolin Renszerwicz.a hardworking, industrious citizen of Winoun, who has been in the employ of Hon. J. A, Mathews for scveral years, Mr, Ronszerwicz was inter viewed by a representative of the Republi- can and gave the following story: He and his wife had been married about fifteen years and had only one child—a daughter, ed fourtes About four years previous to Slominski's appearance Mrs. Renszerwicz had been ailing, or appcared, to be, and had had several physicians in attend- ance from time to time. When Dr. Slominski advertised his lectures, she at- tended, und was very favorably imuressed with him, and prevailed upon her husband 10 go with her to him for treatment. Ho did 80, and the doctor guavanteed to curo her for $25—and showing a knowledee of the value of money, asked for it in advance. Mr. Ren- szorwicz, however, declined that proposition. Siominski attended Mrs, Renszerwica for a month or two, and, as the husband discov- ered later, was a frequent caller during the tune tho husband was away. Fioally, the doctor left for Duluth, but an interchunge of letters between himself and Mrs. Renszerwicz place. Tho result was that the doctor ¢ urged that Mrs, Rouszerwicz try u milder climate, such as California, whither the doctor and his family were going, and that it would surely result in her entire re- covery. After much discussion Mr. Renszerwicz de- cided to send his wife and their daughter to Canfornia and gave her $210 to pay her ex- penses, Ou April 7, 1885, he bought her a ticket for St. Paul und suw her aboard tne train. She wag to write him at once upon her arrival in California und if everything was favorable he would join her there. Three weeks passed before he heard from her, and then a letter came from Duluth stating that she was there at the louse of Dr. Siominski, who had not yet been uble to sell out his property and leave for the balmy air of California. Another lapse of time and a second letter stated that the dootor had given up going to Californiu, but was going to Colorado. By this time Mr. Renszerwicz thought it was. time that his wife either went to California or came home at once, and so wrote in an imperative mavner, Another three weeks clapsed and be receivea a letter from Cali- fornm, stating that she had arrived there with tho doctor, and as Mr. Renszerwicz had subposed, with the doctor’ wife and cnildren. About the time of the receipt of the lust letter a telegram was re- cewved by the husband asking the $100 at once, to which no attention was paid, and was followed by auother letter asking for $0 if ho could not send a hundred, as the doctor was broke and wanted to fiv up an office. The money wus not sent, as Mr.Renszerwicz was informed about this time that the doctor's wife was still in Duluth, and upon an interchange of letters be- tween them it came out that while Mr, Renszerwicz was believing that his wife was with Slominski and family in California, Slominski's wife thought that the doctor was with Mr. Renszerwicz and family at the samo place, His eyes were then fully opened. Mr. Renszerwica wrote to his wife in strong terms, and she in return wrote back and asked him to mortgage his property for $700 and send it to her, and he could have the privilege of keeping what other property he had, and *‘all would be over betieen them.” This financial proposition was declined, and Mr. Renszer wrote to his wife that ne never wanted to hear from her again, and he has not since April last, and does not now know the whereabouts of either the wife or child. It was evidently a preconcerted scheme of the doctor to obtain Renszerwicz's wife and through her his property. She evidently traveled around from place to place with the doctor, as her letters were written from five or six different places. Lr. T. W. Roberts, of this city, knew Slo- minski at the Chicago Homeopathic college, at which both graduated. He says Slominski bas his diploma ali right. Slominski sent his diploma to the state board, while he was in Winonu, to have it approved, so that he could practice in this stato, but it is under- stood that on account of his bad charvacter he w fused a license to practice. While in Winona he had a woman with him whom he represented s his wife, and two chidren—a boy and a girl. Several other escapades of @ minor character 1n which Slominski figured are framed in the memory of those who had the pleasure of waking his acquaintunce while mn Winona, ALEXANDEW'S DEBUT, He is Commissionea a Collector of Customs at Last, W.

Solid Ivory Suit of Furniture. The Maharajah of Durbhangah has become the possessor of a suite of furni- ture which is absolutely unique, besides which its value is enhanced by the asso- ciations of bygone days, says the St. James Gazette. 1t consists of a ca table, four arm chairs, two small tea- poss and a sofa, the whole made of solid vory. i It is said to have been presented by ippoo Sultan 1o Warren Hastings; and Sir George Birdwood is of opinion that this is probably the case asthe hoad and paws of a tiger (the badge of the Mysore fumily) figures conspicuously in the decorations of the chairs and sofa. Be this as it may, tho furniture was undoubtedly the property of Warren Hastings, and remained at Daylesford till after his death, when it found its way into the collection of Lord Londes- borough. When this collection was sold at Christie’s the furniture was bought by Messrs, Wintheimer & Co.. dealers in bric-a-brac, for £1,500, and it was subsequently purchased from them by the Maharajah. The cardtable isof an oval shape,covered with the usual green cloth, which is edged with gold em- broidery, It has six legs, delicately carved and gilt in an arabesque design. The sido of the table is similarly dec- orated, and a molding runs around the edge, carved in imitation of the scales of a date palm and souched with gold. The backs and sides of the arm chairs are beautifully carved in fretwork, two in arabesque pattérns and two in de- signs of conventional flowers.

The sides are carved and gilt with a beautiful tracery of conventional flowers and birds, The arms end in tigers’ heads, and the front logs in tigers’ paws, the whole being elaborately carved and gilt.

A VAST NEW CAVE FOUND. Two Moen Mako txtensive Explora- tlons Near Spenc a. A cave has just been discovered near this placo that rivals Wyandotte in Crawford county, says a Spencer, Ind., special. Two men explored this under- ground palace last night. The entrance is a hole_ twenty feet deep and throe fectin chameter, Passing through a hole they eame to a chamber thirty foet high, the dome of which was hung with many stone pendants dripping with water, forming a beautiful sight in the flaving lamps. A narrow passage led into another chambor about sixty feot high. ‘Then they entered still another room. Throogh a sixty-foot aisle they came to a man-hole which was covered with sand and dirt, the product of rains that wash through. The ovenings from here wore too small to pass through, but a hollow, cavern-like sound wus dis- covered beneath. A hole will he drilled through into the cavern below. The water disappears here and the air is observed to rush through. The ex- plorers spentan _hour and fifteen min- utes underground. ekl kL A Poet's Unildren, I don’t know whether Richard Wat- son Gilder, the Century eaitor, would be generally called a handsome man, butivis certain that his children are considered almost beautiful. George is the youngest of the Gilder family, a handsome four-year-old, with face al- most angelic, says the Boston Journal. Yet behind those angel eyes, lies a little soul and mind turbulent with ischief. He 18 most unconguerable in respect, and his pranks are as nu- s as thoy are unique and origi- nal. Mr. Gilder’s children are of the most creative order. Littie Dorothea, who owns to nine summers in the most innocent manner, has just invented a plan for protecting a_favorite doll from the destructive assaults of the misciief lovinjr George. “‘What is that you have around your doll’s neck, pet?’” asked her mother a few days ago. “That, mamma,” said the little girl, coming up close to her parent with a confidential air, *‘is a bell. You see your baby can cry if George bothers her when you are not looking. but my baby can’t cry,so I have put this bell on her 50 that I can hear if George takes hor up when I’m down stairs.” The small Dorothea, who looks like a fairy, with her weaith of blonde hair, tiny face and strauge dark eyes, is weighted with the full dignity of her Puritan name all the time, Mrs. Gilder maintaining a family tradition against the curtailing or mutilating of beauti- ful names. She herself never was or is known among her family or intimates by any less dignified title than *‘Hel- ena,” a name that swts her perfectly.
