Election Commissioners avetived Republicans of “malicious challenging of votes throughout the entire county.”

Ill feeling began yesterday morning when Republican workers in heavily populated North Side precincts beseeched the Election Board for extra ballots to complement voting machines and the Board, over the vehement gument of Mr. Smith, refused: ta send ballots.

“You can say for me,” declared Mr. Smith, “that2000 Republican voters were distranchised by this action.” He cited as an | example the de-

On a vote by Mr. Schlosser and County Clerk Charles R. Ettinger, other Board ;members, it was decided that ballots would be sent only when re‘quested by the inspector at the ‘precinct. !

Anthony Faccione, 34, of 1119 S.

He said that in both instances he had been told that seals were re-| moved from voting machines and new seals affixed, and that persons at both polls were “shuffling ballots indiscriminately.” He said his suspicions first were aroused by the disproportionate vote between the voting machine and the ballots at the Washington St. polling place. | ‘Too Much to Swallow’ “The machine gave me an advantage of 724 to 266,” he said, “but the ballots gave me a lead. of only

five, with a showing of 45 to 40 in

my favor. That kind of ratio is too much to swallow.” The sheriff also dispatched his deputies, armed with. watchers’ credentials, to other North Side polling places where he said he feared vote juggling, but there was no other fraud alleged.
