AUSTRALIAN BY-ELECTION
EXCITING FINISH EXPECTED Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright SYDNEY, June 27. (Received June 28, at 8 a.m.) Polling took place yesterday for the Woollarhra by-election due to the death of the Speaker of tho Assembly, Sir Daniel Levy. Interest lay mainly in the fact that the United Australian Party’s preselection system was in tho balance. That party’s nominee, Mr G. B. Grant, who at present has a lead of 424 votes, is opposed by two Independent candidates who objected to the preselection by the party machine, one of whom, Mr H. Mason, is likely to figure in an exciting finish when the, preferences to the third candidate, Mr G. W. M'Donald, arc distributed.
