the questions propounded by the judges and returned to Bennott's bastile without giving him a life. Quiet and Orderly. Thore was no trouble at any of the polling places. The voters came along nicely and just rapidly enough to keep the election officials busy without crowding them. When the polls closed everybody had voted and there was an absenco of the wusual crush around the booths. A half hour luter the vicinity of the booths was deserted and the judges and clerks srore at work counting the tickets that were to decide the political fortane of about 100 candidates. In accordance with the request of all of the polilical committees, the elec- tion officials in most of the precincts counted the vote on mayor first, and Mayor Bemis had evidence of his handsome endorsement before 10 o'clock After the result on the head of the city tlcket was known the election officers settled down to the detail count of the vote on the other candidates, with the result that but little definite information was secured until after midmight. Who Are At 4 o'clock this morning returns were nearly all in. The result as i mated at that hour cannot be materially changed by the official count. Bemis will have a plurality of over 2,000 Bolln will have n majority for city treas- urer of about 1,000, Olsen is re-clected comptroller by about 400, Becka has a good majority for police judge.

The average voter hurriedly ate his sup- per with supremo indifference to dyspepsia last evening and rushed dowu town to wateh the election returns, us flashed w the public by Tus Bee stereopticon. Immense crowds gathered at Seventeenth and Farnam stroots, while a few wandered down the street to witness the rivalry between the Waorld-Herald and the Figaro, The latter. whose journalistic career will doubt- less terminate with the expiring echoes of the campaign horus, made an effort to fash the returns on the ruins of the Farnam Streey theater. Early in the evening a bulletin bearing the ivscription “Rosewater Turned Down~Bedford, Bennewt and Eller Elected” appeared on the Figaro's “slide” with regu- O ailuartatug savis ahd sasuaciis AL ieuares s and spaswodic attempls at landscape vie As the ofticial results ralled in, howeyer, and Mr. Bemus' election was universally conceded the bullecin was wrevised.

Finally w weary of readiug advertise- mwn bt aad Figaro wspirations and paid buy Litsle attention to the “handwriting on the VFarsaw Street theater wall." Fhecrowd that watched Tun Bse bulletins was 4 large and enthusiastic one. When the roslection of Mayor Bewmis waus evideut, and the returns from forty-eight precincts proelaimed the glad tidings to the expectant throng, cheers followed one anather in quick succession and there was_genoeral rejoicing. As enrly as 9:90 o'clook, Chairman Sheehan of the democratic city central committee concoded Mayor Bemis' clection by 2000, When this fact became known to the crowd, the republicans and all admirers of good municipal govern- ment proceeded to “jollify.” Tin borns, em- bellished with red, white and blue paint, were iashed in the air, and trumpeted en- thusiasm resounded through the streets.

Suaborough, chairman of the repub- lican city central committee, s1id that he re- garded the election of Mr. Bemis as the most_important vietory of Omaha republi- cane for many years. “The contest was decidedly mixed,” he said. *“T'here were features connected with it which were not altogether creditable to the county committee or other republican organizations. The mayor was assmled on all sides. Our victory under the circum- stances | regard as_an extraordinary one,” At 12 0'clock Cuairman Sudborough could not give a definite estimate on the balance of the city ticket. He thouzht tho entire ticket was elected by small majorif but added thaton city clerk and police judge there might be some doubt. Death of the: Docror's Hopes. A reporter called at Mercer headquarters at 8:30 o'clock last evening to obtain the velaims and concessions” of the political rainbow chasers, After cutting his way through great chunks of darkness, the re- porter finully foundsghe building where the big doctor nursed his mayorality boom and listened to the ‘‘cuckoo call” of W. J. Broatch and other enthusiasts who inocu- lated the doctor with the fatul virusof polit- ical ambition. A rattle at the door sent a sepulchral echo through the desertod room, where but a few days ago the voices of “Mercer's merry minions” mingled in a grand anvil cnorus of confidence. ‘The doctor’s honeyed expectancy had be- come a pickled disappointment.

According to tho story of one of the watchers, the party was about to alight from their carriages wher Colonel Bacon was ae- costed by McKane, who remarked vhat he had been looking for him. Colonel Bacon produced the injunction, which had been secured from the supreme court yesterday frernoon, and attempted to serve it upon MceKane. MceKane refused the papers and led his officers to take Colonel Bacon into custody, which was immediately done. Tho rest of the party were ordered 1o et out of town as soon as possible.

BUFFALO'S ELECTION, Scenes Around the Folling Places In that City Yesterday, Burraro, Nov. 7.—Tne First ward was a scene of battle {rom sunrise to sunset. Over @ hundred patrolmen and as wany special deputies were detailed there to keep order, The chief strife was over the election of alderman, The so-called “ward boss,” Jack White, who, it is alleged, has tyrannized over the inhabitants for upwards of a dozen | years, was opposed in this slection by Con- tractors Connors and Kennedy, one a repub- lican and the other a democrat. Both, it was alieged, had colonized the ward with huudreds of hirelings aud scoopers woo had taken up a residence in the. ward for thirty days prior to election and were marshaled to the polls today like catile. The police and deputy sherifl, it is, alleged, gave partisan aid to theanti-White colonists and schemers, In the Fourth district four pugilists were stationed at the door of the booth. Billy Baker, Reddy Strauss, Char- lie Marks, and one Morgan, alias Ken- nedy, made up this quartet, and there was very little trouble there. Oneor two of White's zcalous aahereuts who insisted on f:;ulux oo close to the polis were picked up dily und dropped in the mud by Baker or Morgan, but no fighting ensued. = Not only was it impossible for the adherents of White to deposit their votes, but even watchers were refused admission.

Bostox, Nov!'7"Theresult of the election in this state can only be described as a hugo politicul landsiide. For the tirst time in throe years, the state will have a republican governor, and his plurality is 80,000 at least The whole tickgtis electea with him, and the legislature,is solidly republican in both branches, Capgid democrats had conceded the defeat of John, J. Russell, their candi- date for goverror, by a small majority, while even the most sanguina republicans would not claim over 15,000 for Greenhalge.

One of these cities, New Bodford. gives him 1,304 plurality, where in 1801 Russell and Allen were about oven. The chances are that other ‘outside cities will increase Green- halge's lead to 25,000 or 80,000, Two hundrod and forty-five towns show a net democratic loss of 13,207, Boston re- turns from the entire city, excopt o cinct, gives Groenhalge " 20.005; Russell, 38,723 u republican gain of 3811 The shows have in JUDGE GARY ELECTED. His Suceess Concoted by the Chieago Times by n € CnicaGo, Nov. s, the senior democratic paper, concedes the clection of the entiie republican judicial ticket. with one possible exception, and claims no moro than five of the county commissioners inside the eity. The clection today seems to be abouta standofl. At midnight the returns indicated the republicans had elected the entire judi- cial ticket and the democrats had secured the county commissioners inside_the city. The Judicial ticket has herotofore been on 't nonpartisun basis, but this year the demo- crats broke away and nominated a ticiket of their own and the republicans seem to havo clected every juaicial candidate. The ereat fight has b en over the election of Judge Gary, who presided at the trial of the anarchists. ' At the time Governor Altgeld pardoned the anarchists he made a severo at- cacic on Gary. Gary seams not only to have poiled the “full republican strength, but o have drawn on the democratic vote as well. Tn almost every precinct he was from 5 to 10 per cent ahead of the res’, of tho ticket. The general result shows decisive republican gains over the presiaential elec- tion of a year ago. Lays it All to the Muchine, New Yorg, Noy. 7.—Commenting on the result of the election, the New York Staats Zeitung will tomorrow say: “The demo- cratic machine in/ our state has aone its worlk thoroughly. It has wiped out last year's majority ' of 50,000 votes and delivered the statd into the hands of the republicans, as fatas this was possiblo, in yesterday’s elegtions. 1t is a terrible defeat for the democrafic,party, but will probubl prove a blessing i disguise. It was better to defeat the party in ively unim- portant election, afd in this way compel 1t to reform itself than to enable its present miserable leaders to continue upon the road followed of latayears. 1t certainly is worth of notice that Magnacd was miserably cut i the three cities hyving the strongest Ger- man-American population.” Legislature Stilh Democratio, NEw Youk, Nov. he election in New Jersey was for dight members of the state senate and thed entire house of assembly. Today's clection Wb to fill the plage of one republican and seven democrats. 1t resulted in the choice'of seven republicans and one democrat. The republican gain was six.

Democratic Success in Virginia, Ricumoxp, Va., Nov. 7.—Returns from throughout the state show O'Ferrall, demo- crat, has been elected governor by a good majority. All the other democrats on the state ticket were elected by majorities rang- ing from 50.000 to 35.000. The day passed off quietly and no disturbances have been re- vorted. The negroes took but livtle interest in the election and their vote was divided. Fought at the Polling Place.

NEWSPAFER COMMENT, What Some of the Lerding Jours of the Landslide. Avausta, Ga., Nov. 7.—After reviewing the republican Jandslide in Ohio, lowa, Mas- sachusetts and New York, the Chronicle says: Butinthe midstof 8o much that is gloomy, there is much of comfort in the fact that the Old Dominlon remains “as firm asa fortress with its fence of stone.” The populists have madea valiant charge for Virginia. Simpson and Pence stumped the stato; indeed, ull the urtillery of the peo- ple's party wis concentrated against O'Fer- rall, The returns indicate that it was all in vain, and the democratic party has gouo through. It cannot be denied that the action and inaction of congress have bred elements of discord among the people, and these, with the unfortunate vdstmation of local factors, have wrought thé ¢onfirmation which we are forced to deplora oday. Warning to the Demoorats, LouvisviLie, Nov. 7.—The Commercial to- morrow will say editorially on the result of the election: 1n 4ll the contested states the tide was witi the republicans. 1n Ohio, where the contest was on national issues and the contest swas distinctly made be- tween protection and free trade, between the author of the MckKjnley bill and the ,author of the plank in ti¢ Chicago platform,that do clared protection umeoustitutional, the mag- nificent majorityefMekKinley shows that the ople neve* meayhin previous votes to en- Horse the. free iiade polloy.

Chicago Fapers, Cuicaco, Nov. 7.—Chicago papers cows ment as follows on the election: Inter Ocean—It looks as though there had been a laudslide. In New York, Massachu- seuts, lowa, Ohio and Penusylvania the r publican candidates have been elected by majori.ies, the magnitude of which cannot be determined at the time of writing this, but which are emphatic in rebuke of demo- cratic free trade policy, democratic pension- hating policy, and of the democratic policy of selling national offices to the highess bid- der, and of paying eloction return robbers by gifts of places on the supreme bench ot & great state. Record—Notable republican victories were won at the polls yesterday in various siates. Think Chief of the causes Is the seriou s financial disturbance of this v The belief that the democratie bromise of tariff changes has been at least in part to blame for these evils doubtless influenced many voters ¥rom the New York World. New York, Nov. 7.—The World will s The result in New York is the overthrow of tho bosses and the breakdown of the ma chine. The disaster was recorded when the state machine defied decency by the nomina tion of Maynard. The act was an affront the moral Sentiment of the state; it out- raged every propricty of politics, It not only violated th entiment of orential respect with which the peo- ple of New York have regarded their court » flast resort, but was an act that furnished a fitting ciimax to tho sort of machine pol- itics and boss ruie which founa expression in the snap convention of 1802, in tho elec tion of Murphy as senator, in the flagrant violation of the demoeratic principle of home rule by the legislature, and in the subjection of the party to the willof an oligarchy This is the first opporiuvity that has come to the voters to deal with this misleading of the party, this rale of tho bosses. This is significant. From Other Papers. New Youk, Noy. 7.~The Tribuno will say The victory in New York is complete, The reaction against the democratiz party is against all that it represents and emboi i Nune of its infamies has availed to save i from public condomnation, but each has added weight to the blow. The long reign of democratic knavery has come toan end here at last, and none too soon for the safety, not less than the honor of the state Putcanenriia, Nov. 7.—The Press says this morning: In 182 the people voted under 4 blind, wayward, unreasonmng im pulse.

A year ago they werc deluded into voting for a “'change.” ~ Yesterday they proclaimed that they kave had enough of it and are eager o ‘change’ back to what they foolishly voted away. The North American says the verdict of the country upon the avowed policy of the democratie udministration with regard to the tariff has been rendered and it is one of empi d general eondemnation The Times says: ‘Tho_republican organs will naturaily and justifiably derive satis- faction from yesterday's sweep.

Peculinrly Significant, St Louts, Nov. 7 Under the caption, “The Republican Triumph," the Globe: Democrat will say: The vietory in New York is peculiarly significant and gratifying. While the nomination of Maynard undoubt- edly hurt the democratic ticket, it scems dent from the voie that even with an unexceptionable candidate in his place democracy would have been beaten, The significance of the republican triumphs in Ohio lies in the fact that with tho tariff as the chief issue the republicans have rolled up a far greater plurality than they had previously gained in many years. The admimstration and the party it represents are condomned und re- buked. ‘Ilie people have procliimed their Purpose to reverse their action of 1802 in the oming congressional and vresidontial clee- tions.

Ohio has so emphatically endorsed the principle of protection for American industries that the issue of 1896 is now equivocally and dis- tinctly cut out. On it Massachusetts was redeemed yesterday; on Towa was won the republican fold and Jersey has been hifted free from shackles.
