For the gang feudists had fired five shots straight into one of the crowds surrounding Suiszer’s cart tall, and it was only @ miracle that no one was burt. The cause of the trouble was a slink- ing little Meutenant of “Dopey Ben- known as “Joe the Greaser.” Joe had started out to collect defense fund for “Dopey Benny” when he was last arrested and held in bigh ball, and, according to underworld gossip, had “held out” a part of the funds collected for @ commission. Benny’s more loyal ieutenants were shocked at “Joe the Greaser's” con- duet—it wasn’t clubby; and they went out to “get” the commission shaver. ‘Two meetings were roaring away at the Seventh street and Second avenue corner near midnight. Sulzer was banging out oratory from one auto- mobile and Judge Hartman was spell: binding from another across the street. Suddenly two revolvers began to speak and the bullets drove into the crowd. “Joe the Greaser,” knowing that he was the target, made a dive for the saloon of ex-Alderman Schneider; three bullets splintered one of the plate windows by bis side as he Jumped. “Joe, the Greaser” went out a side door and down Seventh street as if he'd just remembered that somebody owed him money. Two men were geen to break from the crowd and run inty @ restaurant on the oppo- aive corner, Policemen Butler and Wagner fol- lowed the fugitives into the restaur- ant and arrested them. Several men in the crowd identified them as having fired the shots. Two revolvers were picked up from the gutter in front of the restaurant. When the policemen tried to get their prisoners out of the restaurant the crowd that had gathered at the shots came together in a common purpose of revenge and surged for- Ward to take the prisoners from Vd two policemen, It was not until Bweone: the reserves got on he scene that the two gunmen could be taken from the restaurant with safety. ‘The prisoners proved to be two well gaters, tie Hundred and i 7 nee ot Lote, ee Sitti susie,” of No. East Elev- enth [pny cee has mee, ferented mes in the last eighteen months oie areee vee from disorderly conduct to ult, j@ now under $7,500 bail, yet et in all this time his only punishment has been two fines of $3 apiece and five days in the workhouse.

CTION RETURNS —IN THE— ning World, To-morrow A plan to prevent 155 employees of the Metropolitan Hospital on Black- well's Island from voting was nipped bo in the bud by Magistrate MoQuade tn Yorkville Police Court to-day. All the voters in question presumably Gre Tammany men. The plan was engineered by Simeon Beckerman of No. 764 Fifth avenue, &® watcher for the Honest Ballot As- sociation. He went to the polling place on Blackwell's Island before the polls opened to-day and arrested and took to the police court Frank Chase, Henry Clay, Michael Daly and Kd- ‘ward Carroll, all of whom had reg- istered as paid employees of the Met- Topélitan Hospital. Chase had voted when Beckerman arrested him. He was charged with illegal voting. Ths othor three were charged with making false statements the time of registration. By agree. ment, the four cases were used as u teat of the law and the 151 remaining omployees waited until the news came from the police court before casting thelr ballots. Beckepman claimed, when he ar- yaigned his prisoners before Mi Mate McQuade, that, virtually, they were paupers, working for their board and lodging and, therefore, not en- titled to vote. He asked for an ad- journment in order that he might establish his charges after investiga- clses of the new dispensary of the Hospital for Deformities and Joint Diseases at Nos. 41 and 43 East One Hundred and Twenty-third street this afternoon. The new bullding, a six-story structure, is an annex to the main hospital at No. 1917 Madison avenue.
