NEW YORK, November 7.—At 9 o'clock, eastern standard time, returns from the national elections were still so meager as to give no indication of the political complexion of the next Con- gress and were coming in slowly. Only one turnover had up to that hour been recorded—the clection of Cordell Hull, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, to the House of Representatives from Tennessee over the Republican incumbent of the fourth district. Democratic delegations of senators and representatives were being returned from the Southern Sates. At 9 o'clock one-third of the returns for the House of Representatives had heen recorded, mostly from the south. M er Concedes to Smith. In the state of New York the clection of Alfred E. Smith was conceded by Gov. Miller, the republican incumbent, and the New York Times announeed the election of Dr. Royal S.

In Connecticut, Senator McLean, republican, was in the lead; in Indiana, former Gov. Ralston was running ahead of former Senator Albert J. Beveridge from the few districts reported. Senator Lodge was running ahead in Massachusetts. Women Candidates Lose.

Voteless, but loval as e\'er—lhall was Washington tonight. Denied the right of franchise itself, the National Capital attempted to show its intense interest in the coun- try's business by pouring fully 100,000 persons into the streets to watch the results of the election that was held everywhere else in the United States today. Two of the century's greatest and latest creations—the motion picture and the radio—brought the returns to Washington from every corner of the nation and gave them to the peo- ple here almost as quickly as the voters in the respective districts of the country knew the results them- selves. Although the crowd was late in getting started, it came in_a steady stream to the newspaper offices from 9 o'clock on. At that hour there were fully 15,000 persons banked from curb to curb on Pennsylvania avenue | in front of The Star office; others arriving later even crowded into the Post Office Department steps. Two Screens Give New: pointed by Governor Hardwick to succeed the late Senator [homas Watson. She was the first woman senator but never| took her seat Alfred E Smith’s plurality over Governor Miller of New York continued to mount as the returns piled in. Senator France was running slightly ahead of Bruce on meager returns from Maryland. Senator Frelinghuysen was lead- ing in New Jersey. The second turnover in the House elections came with the defeat of Representative Benjamin L. Fairchild of the twenty- fourth New York district by James V. Ganley, democrat. Two screens were erected ac: the entire front of The Star building. On one of these were flashed the election returns from all over the country im- mediately after they were obtained from the Assoclated Press wires. During intervals the throng was en- tertained by motion pictures on the other screen, one of the subjects be- ing “SaYety First” lessons. As more complete returns began to arrive the enthusiasm of the crowds everywhere grew apace. Time and again cheers echoed up and down Pennsylvania avenue as a gain first for one party and then another was announced. More and more those who earlier In the evening had promenaded up and down F street and other highways of the eity flocked to one or the other of the newspaper offices. ; Auto Trafiic Suspended. .

Keeps Most of Seats in the House. The republicans have retained control of both the Senate and House by a very considerable majority, the election returns, which are coming in very slowly, indicate. At present the make-up of the Senate is 60 republicans and 36 democrats. Democratic gains have Been offset by those of the republicans, and, while the re- turns so far- received show that the democrats may have picked up Senate seats in New York, in West Virginia and in Indiana, now held by republicans, on the other hand, they may have lost seats in Rhode Island and Wyoming. Senator Lodge, veteran republican leader of the Senate, on the face of the returns, has been re-elected over his democratic opponent, William A. Gaston. In New York, the claim is made that Dr. Royal G. Copeland, Nemocrat, has defeated Senator Calder, republican. But Cope- tand is running considerably behipd Gov. Smith, the democratic candidate for governor of tic Empire state, and republicans still clinging to the hope that Calder would pull through. Democratic Senators. ) - Election of democratic senators from some of the southern states was early reported. Judge Walter F. George, democrat, was elected without opposition in Georgia. Senator Park Tram- mell of Florida, democrat was swept into office and Senator Claude Swanson of Virginia, democrat, won by an overwhelming vote. The returns from Texas so far received show that May- field, democratic nominee and candidate of the Klu Klux Klan, was running ahead of Peddy, who was supported by republicans and opponents of the klan. ceed Senator Page, defeating Mayo the democratic nominee. Former Representative Cordell Hull, chairman of the democratic national committee, who was defeated in the fourth Tennessee district two years ago by Representative Wynne P. Clouse, has defeated Clouse for re- elction. Early returns give George C. Peery, democrat, & lead of 1,196 in the ninth Virginia district, to 386 for John H. Hassinger. republican.
