Voting began early and continued quite regularly until the close of the polls. The total vote for the six pre- cincts was not as much as was ex- pected by many, though more than 300 votes had been cast by noon in the first three precincts. It was noticed that there were very few arguments in the vicinity of the polls, and the | masses seemed to feel that the vote was matter of no great importance. There was an absence of anything like a spirit of intimidation. There were no ward heelers in view, and the greatest purist would have found no fault with the methods in. vogue. The Thirty-Fifth District cooled his ardor and he departed. No other episode disturbed the quietness of the district and the policemen were content. It Is thought that the vote cast in the Thirty-eighth District will exceed one-half the number polled at the last eiection, but in any event the vote was small. At the close of the booths it was the prevailing opinion that the fusion ticket had carried the district, but by what majority no one seemed willing to attempt to calcu- late. The Thirty-Ninth District. In the Thirty-ninth District the election was very quiet. The voters came silently, with their candidates’ numbers on a card, received their bal- lots, deposited them and went their way. The only thing that occurred to change the monotony of silent voting were challenges in some of the pre- cincts. In the Sixtieth Precinct there were three challenges on the ground of nonresidence“at the places given, but each furnished satisfactory proof of residence, and they were allowed to swear their votes in. At Precinct 62 TUESDAY, DECEMBER , 1897. ./ be taken from the body of citizens present. James T. Brady of 1617 Lark{n street and John Osborne of 2305 Jack- son street were chosen and sworn in by J. S. Daley as judges of election, and business proceeded. At the Seventy-seventh Precinct O. D. Baldwin was a prominent worker in the interest of the Phelan combina- tion, and was very active with the em- ployes of the Sacramento-street line. Early in the morning there was con- siderable talk to voters who were ap- proaching the polls, but when they crossed the 100-foot line they were driven back. One disgusted individual, who believed from what he had ob- served that things did not go his way, exclaimed, “It's no use trying to do anything here, for the plug-hats have all got their work in for the Phelan gang.” At the Seventy-sixth Precinct at a quarter to five in the afternoon about one-third of the registered vote had been polled. The only incident that changed the routine of voting was the challenging at various times during the day the soldiers from the Presidio military post. There were ten such challenges, on the ground that the men booths were lenged, there any votes chal- Forty-Fifth District. In the Forty-fifth District, the wholesale center of the city, voting went along quietly, but the vote cast was small. The election officers had an easy time of it and the police were | to quell any | not once called upon breaches of the peace. COUNTING THE BALLOTS. A Quiet Evening at the City Hall Election Headquarters. There was very little interest about election headquarters during the entire evening. Scarcely a baker’s dozen of spectators lingered about the precincts of the Registrar to heartheresult of the quiet election. The returns were handled by L. J. Welch, legal adviser; H. J. Mulcreavy, | chief deputy, and D. J. Gordan, of the affidavit room. In all the work there was very little delay. Long before the returns began to come in the clerks | for the fuston freeholders. the fusion | Along Brannan street, where were lo- | cated the booths for the Twenty-first, | | Twenty-second and Twenty-third pre- | cinets, the day was particularly quiet, | | and the vote was lighter than the most | pessimistic expected. In the Twenty- | fourth the vote was only 197 out of a | precinct that brought out nearly a | thousand voters at the last election. The Thirty-Third District. In the Thirty-third the activity was confined mainly to the Twenty-seventh Precinet, where the inmates of the | County Hospital voted. There were thirty or forty of them, and they all came down between 10 and 12. Some- thing over 200 votes were cast in that | precinet, which was more than the ‘showing made in elther the Twenty- fifth or Twenty-sixth. Voting in Precinct Twenty-eight, Tennessee and Twenty-second streets, was slow umtil late in the afternoon, | when ballots went into the box at a of admitted s barely ten of the John h and Timothy Sul- Et?

Most of them own homes of their own, and they were opposed to jeopardizing their interests by placing the government of the city in the hands of one man. What s true of Precinct Twenty- eight is also true of Precinct Twenty- nine, 1201 Railroad avenue. In this precinct there was no opposition to the | fusion ticket. The sentiment for the| people’s ticket was so one-sided that it | was monotonous. A good vote was | polled during the forenoon.

There were a great many conjectures as to the out- come of the vote, but the policemen in charge of the various precincts re- ported that the election was one of the quietest on record. The Thirty-Seventh District. Had it not been for a fe\}' homely little voting booths placed 'here and there, about which a few small-fry politicians hovered, it would have been difficult to tell whether or not yester- day was election day in the Thirty- seventh District. In the early hours of the morning the voting was moder- ately brisk, but when the whistles be- gan to call the laborer to his tofl and the business man to his desk the dis- trict went to sieep. It did not again wake up during the day, and at § o'clock the booths were closed and the count quietly began. Less than half the number of votes usually cast in the district were polléd, and the pleas- ing absence of warring “ward heelers” and inebriated enthusiasts made the day for the members of the election board drowsy and uninteresting. The Thirty-Ei ght District. But one incldent caiculated to call forth the reprimand of a police officer occurred in the six precincts of the Thirty-eighth District yesterday. A “pviitician,” who feeling in his heart that he was not “born to blush un- seen” endeavored to do a little elec- tioneering in the immediate proximity of the Fifty-fifth Precinct booth. He was warned to make his departure to other scenes, but as he did not exhibit the desired haste to obey instructions he was taken by the collar and de- posited outside the line that marked wake. The solitary policeman on duty | tilted his chair in one corner of the | booth, drew his helmet down over his | eves and slept the sleep of the inno- | cents. The comments at that place were thai people in that section took no interest in the election. | . Two workers for the Phelan push put in an appearance at the Sixty-fifth Pre- | einct, but soon retired in disgust, as it y Was apparent that there was not any- [ thing for “de push” to do. | The Fortieth District, | The Fortieth District included the | Richmond and Cliff House section, and those who live in those sections were at the polls early.- At each precinct | Quiet prevailed, and there was not an arrest and not a disturbance that | called for police intervention. There | was an absence of workers at the poll- | Ing places, and- the only prominent | politiclans noted there were Ned Lan- igan and Johnny Bennfield, while ex- County Clerk Haley was out working against Lanigan and his interests. Said one of the officers at the Sixty- sixth Precinct: “We got 2 challenge list, but we haven’t had a chance to use it,” ‘and that was at half-past 4 o’clock in the afternoon. The Forty-First District. Another quiet district was the Forty- first. Within its boundaries reside a great many members of the mercantile | community, and they in unusually | large numbers, in view of the fact that | it was a special election, went to the | polls. At the Seventy-fourth Precinct the polls were opened on time, but it was impossible to proceed on account of the | non-arrival of the clerks. The line of voters grew, and at the end of half an hour the voters demanded that clerks along slowly all day long, but at no time was there a rush at the booths. Tom Conboy, one of Buckley’s old lambs, who was doing special service at the polling place in the Bighty- sixth Precinct in the interests of the Phelan-Examiner ticket, created a dis- turbance by challenging the vote of one of the residents of the district. Conboy ordered the police officer who was stationed at the booth to arrest the voter, and in a maudlin way talked of some serious charges that were to be preferred against him. The voter satisfied the election officers, and Con- boy was toid to go ahead and swear | to charges it he so desired. Soon after- | ward it was found that Conboy was | there to intimidate voters, and he was run out of the 100-feet limit of the polling place. At the Eighty-fifth Precinct at Bush and Stockton streets, David Keating, a clerk of the polling place, was ac- cused of unlawfully marking the ballot of a voter who desired the assistance of one of the clerks in preparing his vote. The voter ciaimed his eyesight was defective as his reason for asking for assistance. Keating was taken to | the City Hall, where he made an ex- planation of the facts and he was re- leased Forty-Fourth District. About a third of the total vote was cast in the Forty-fourth District. Vot- ing went along steadily all day, but at no time was there a rush at any of | the booths. There were no disturb- | ances at any of the four polling places | in the district and at none of the| TR ry mmcm RETIRING FROM THE DESK BUSINESS.
