HO CHARGES OF FRAUD ARE MADE; ARRESTS IN BOTH BOROUGHS. : Robert Winston, an Election District Captain! in the Twenty-first Assembly District, Al-| leged to Have Been Knocked’ Down by Members of the Gruber Faction. There are hot primary fights in Greater New York this afternoon in two widely separated sections of the city. The Seventh District in Brook- lyn, comprising Coney Island, Gravesend and Sheepshead Bay, William A. Doyle is fighting for the leadership against the McCarren candidate, Wogan. Senator McCabe and Assemblyman Kehoe are striving for the Democratic leadership in the Ninth District, which comprises the Red Hook neighbor- hood. . In Manhattan the fights are between rival Republicans. Alexander T. Mason, Odell’s man, is trying to down former Alderman Franklin B, Ware, in the Twenty-ninth, ani there is a concerted fight on Abraham Gruber in the Twenty-first. In both ofthese districts there were fights within a short time after voting began at 2 o'clock this afternoon, and two men were arrested at Fifty-third street and Sixth avenue as the result of an argument | at a polling-place. STARTED QUIETLY IN BROOKLYN. ‘The Brooklyn elections paged off quietly in the early hours of voting, although there was energetic work done all through the fighting districts. The odds were on Doyle in the Ninth, and with the powerful backing of “Kenny” Sutherland at Coney Island it appeared that he would win. ‘rhe Doyle adherents claimed after the opening of the polls that they had the influence of the Sullivan factton, which has a strong following at| Coney Island and on the race tracks in the Gravesend and Sheepshead Bay | sections. A large porportion of the transient population of Coney Island is recruited from the Bowery, and all are loyal to “Big Tim.” \ ‘rhe district captain and watcher on both sides were on the alert for repeaters and false voters, and late to-day two arreats were made in the Thirty-second Blection District, which takes in the Sheepshead Bay race-| Be ners are Charles EB.

Mr. Hitchings {s backed n hs fight by Philip Bloch, Chief Clerk of the Police Magistrate's Courts. ANDBAGGING. ORY aes of the day eared Robert Winston, of No. 155 West One Hundredth street. Winston is an elecion district captain for the Hitching® forces in the Twenty-first Blection District of the Twenty-first Assembly District. He did not appear at the polling place of his district | {nm a barber shop at No, 2517 Broadway, and a report started that he had been sandbagged’ and assaulted. The Hitchings forces believed the story | while Col. Gruber. laughed at it. i The police of the West One Hundredth street station were notified and Detectives Feherco) and Mangin were placed on he case. ‘ ‘After an investigation and report by the detectives the police were in- |‘ clined to scout the assault story. They stated that Winson, who is about forty years old, was seen in the neighborhood of his home at 12.30 o'clock, | apparently ill. He went to his home, an apartment on the third floor, it} is sald, and a short time afterward his wife came out, Mrs. Hoffman, the, janttress, said she was sure he was in l/s apartment, and she sald she had | heard that he had fallen down a flight of stairs, where or when ehe did not! know. | Leader Hitchings and Clerk Bloch, with Detectives Mangin and Reagan, | went to the home of Winston. After repeated knocks they managed to get’ Into the apartment. According to the story told the party, Winston left two of his Heutenan's |? ‘fat 12,80 o'clock and hed several drinks in a saloon at One Hundred and First street and Amsterdam avenue. Winston war on his way home when * two men approached him, one knocking him down and the other taking | the ballots and disappearing. The other man, according to the story, drove Winston about Central Park in a carriage. t After the interview Winston was taken In charge by Mr. Hitohings and taken to the office of Dr. Jones in One Hundred and Third street, near Cen-' tral Park West ‘ DES : Louis Cardana, a district captain, |* FIRE DRIVES OUT. THIRTEEN AILS Wild Panic in a Big Tenement at Nos. 36 and 38 New Bow-, ery, on Account of the Dense | Smoke. STARTED IN VARNISH « IN ADJOINING HOUSE. People in the Tenement Were at Dinner and Were So Scared that They Rushed Madly irs. The ten families in the big tenement- house at Nos, 86 and 38 New Bowery were driven from thelr rooms this even- ing by a fire in the factory of Martin Garvey, manufacthurer of and dealer in bar and store fixtures at No. 4. Al- though no one was injured, the smoke from the fire, the rush of flames in the Nght material in the Garvey factory and the noise of the engines caused a panic in which there were numerous sensational rescues, The fire started on the third floor of the Garvey plant, in which there was a Rreat quantity of varnish and excelalor stored. Before it was discovered it had eaten through to the roof of the four- story bullding and was working down to the lower floors, In the big tenement next door most of the families were at the evening meal. ‘The pantc operated among those on the top floors and fathers, mothers and children tumbled down the stairs with- out roeara to the steps, ‘ollcemen who were in the neighbor hood dashed into the house and helped the frighteped people out of the smoke- filled halls. A few were bruised, but the most damage was done to them from fright. Because of the proximity of the tene- ment and the nature of the goods in the Garvey plant three alarms were sent in. The flremen succeeded in confining the fire to the Garvey building. There were ten families on the upper floors of the tenement. After the flames had been subdued-they scampered back into thelr apartments to find dinners burned to @ crisp on the stoves and ‘thelr apartments full of thick smoke. The first podoemen on the w that 1 the fire had reached the tene- ment there must have been great loss of life among the tenants, It was fortu- nate that the men were at home, for thelr example did much to prevent the women from hurrying to the fire- escapes and perhaps jumping from the windows, MADOO ASKS WALSH TO EXPLAIN Commissioner Hints that He May Put a Gag in the Mouths of His Subor- dinates.
