No After a Hard Struggle the Po- lice Separated the Opposing Factions. ' R. MANN’S STATEMENT. Claims That a Determined Attempt Was Made to Do Him Up. The Democratic meeting in the Thirty-fourth District last night was | replete with disgraceful scenes which finally culminated in one of the “push’ getting away with the ballot-box. Had | it not been for the presence of several | of Captain Gillin’s men serious trouble | would have occurred. The meeting which was called for the purpose of effecting a permanent or- ganization and also to elect twenty members to represent the district in the General Committee was held in Mis- sion Turner Hall on Eighteenth street, between Valencia and Guerrero. There were two tickets in the field. One was headed by John L. Herget, professionally known as Young Mitch- ell, and the other by Robert Mann, As- sistant Prosecuting Attorney in Judge Conlan’s court. When the balloting commenced a gang of ward heelers surged around the box and attempted to prevent the respectable residents of the district from voting. Mann’s adherents, realiz- | ing that they were ‘“‘up against it,” as one of them expressed it, called upon the policemen who were present to see that they got a square deal. The minions of the law, acting under instructions from Captain Gillin, re- fused to interfere with the balloting, but announced that they wereprepared to oreserve the peace at all hazards. | and toughs would attend the meeting | | mitting murder to gain their end. | | of prominence in this portion of the State. | Mrs. Jonathan Wright, to Cornelius A. | Monterey during the Civil War and, as Pearson, Proctor, Prochaske, Strackujan, Walsh and Shelhimer. A GOOD EXAMPLE. Fred C. Siebe Takes the Initiative in Patriotic Action. There is more than one way of evinec- ing one’s patriotism, and because a man may be a little too far advanced in years to go to the front with a gun and fifty pounds of equipage on his back, it is no reason why he can not do a great | deal of good in other ways. Fred C. Siebe, the brother of the As- sessor, showed a spirit yesterday which | cannot be too highly commended, and | which will probably be the first step in a direction that many other prominent and wealthy merchants will follow. When the hour at which the troops were to depart had been definitely ascer- tained, Mr. Siebe called over two hun- | pations, M Rugen, | dred employes of his shoe factory and | when convinced | wholesale liquor store together and told | known and would be published whether | | them to quit work, go out and see the procession and not to return until they | had cheered themselves hoarse in honor | of the flag. | ‘When the parade was over, the troops had departed and the clerks and labor- ers had returned to their several occu- Siebe informed them that hed to enlist might do so surance that their positions would be apen to them on their return from the war; and that every man so dofng would be presented with a paid- up insurarce policy, made payable to | any member of his family he wished to | provide for, and that the house would stand the expense. | This is the first step taken by any lo- | cal merchant to do what he can toward encouraging enlistment that has neces- | | sitated his going down into his pockets. _ When interviewed last night concern- ing his action, Mr. fabe was at first in- clined to say nothing about it, but, Just as the opposing factions were about to clash a man named “Jim’ Fennell, who is connected with the School Department, rushed upon the | stage, and, seizing the ballot-box, | threw it to a confederate. The latter | attempted to get away with it, but was | seized by a police officer, Who took the | box from him, | Subsequently it was taken to the Sev- enteenth-street station and turned over to Captain Gillin. There were several lively scrimmages after the box wag taken by the police, but no serious harm was done. Mann was sorely grieved at what he termed the desperate methodsemployed by the push. “I was told yesterday,” he remarked | when discussing the theft of the bal- | lot box, “that a gang of ward h('(‘lerS{ for the purpose of seeing that Herget | was elected. Several of my friends | warned me to be extremely cautious, | as the push would not hesitate at com- | “After the polls opened I realized that the ‘push’ was determined to elect Herget. They gathered around | the ballot-box and refused to allow any of my friends to vote for me. “When a battle seemed imminent Fennell, so T am told, seized the box and threw it into the wings to the right of the stage. Just as his confederate was about to get away with it several police officers grabbed it and afterward took it to the Seventeenth sf-eet sta- tion.” Mann's friends say they will cause the arrest of Fennell to-day on a charge of malicious mischief. MISS DAISY WRIGHT BECOMES A BRIDE. Muriuge. of a Young Lady Who Was Born in Monterey’s Old Custom-House. PACIFIC GROVE, April 20—A quiet home wedding occurred here this morn- ing, the principals in which are persons Miss Daisy D.

Dean First Lieutenant Alexander T. Dean, Troop B, Fourth United States Cavalry, has again and for the last time en- tangled himself in the clutches of the military authorities at the Presidio. Wine, women and song are the cause of his downfall. Yesterday it was Lieutenant Dean, to-day it is plain Mr. Dean, his resignation having been ten- dered to avoid a trial and certain dis- missal. A military court had several times tried Lieutenant Dean for drunkenness and conduct unbecoming an officer,, but so0 far he has only been reprimanded or lost a few files in rank. On various occasions while “sprees” he has used Uncle Sam’s fire- arms to perforate the walls and ceilings of saloons and gambling houses in Arizona, and later in the Yosemite National Park. His escapades in the Yosemite have been the talk of the of- ficers and men of his regiment since they occurred. His latest debauch, that happened only a few days since, has capned the climax. It is stated by one close to the authorities that while under the influ- ence of liquor he left his overcoat, cane, watch and chain with a woman of questionable reputation.

Cleare will, in a few days, be ap- pointed a second lieutenant of infantry. The universal wish of his comrades, as expressed in their toasts, is that he | may be successful and attain the high- | est possible rank in the army. Ser- | geant McCleare enlisted August 15, 1894, | and was promoted through the grades | of corporal, sergeant, to regimental | sergeant major, the highest rank ob- | tainable by an enlisted man. Sergeant McCleare is respected by all the men of his regiment for his manly, soldierly and accommodating qualities. | Last September he passed a competi- | tive examination at Fort Leavenworth for a commission, and stood third in merit of seven successful candidates. He is a son of Captain William Mec- Cleare, U. S. A., retired, of Berkeley.
