Coming as it does, straight from the hands of the people, in spite of the opposition of the bosses and machines, my election is peculiarly grati- fying. The District Attorney’s office will g0 on for four years more under my di- rection, for the same system has pre- vailed for the past four years. “Thare is nothing more to be said save { a test of strength between on one side and an aroused ion on the other. There Is no the people when they have scd, and my election is a lesson that the bosses will not soon forget.” Mayor McClellan, upon learning that he | had been rc-elected, issued the following statement: i “The result of the election shows me | more plainly than ever my duty .o the | people. With God’s heip I wiil discharge | it to the best of my ability. I shall keep every promise made before the election.” | Mr. Ivins said early in the evening: “I really have little to say excent that 1 am the happlest candidate that you ever saw.” ! The members of the law committee of | the Municipal Ownership League were In conference early this morning and de-| clared that legal demands be made to- day or to-morrow (Thursday) at the latest, for a recount of the entire vote; cast in New York City. The Héarst men | declare that the fraudulent voting throughout the city was the most fla-| grant that has ever been attempted in| this country. g | | According to the Tribune, fraud | charges were made last night by sup- | porters of Hearst and Jerome. Defl- | nite charges that officlal counts of | votes in the Sixth and Eighteenth As- | | sembly districts had been withheld | | were made at Jerome's headquerters. ' Assistant District Attorney Rand, with several attaches of the District Attor- that | ney's office, went post-haste to the | Sixth and Eighteenth districts and | | founa th: at ballots that had been count- | Yclock had not been officially | reported. Assistant District Attorney ! Denison was sent to police headquar- | | ters to get ald from Commissioner Mec- | Adoo. The Jerome men say that the most flagrant frauds have been per- | petrated to try to accomplish the de- | feat of Jerome. From Tammany Hall, Charles F. Murphy, shortly before 11 o'clock, lent! out word to every leader in the city | that the honor of the organization was at stake and every vote for McClellan He told them to overlook nothing and spare no expense in getting the facts to Tammany as early as possible. “Count every Democratic vete and turn in the report without a moment’s | hesitation,” the warning ran, “The | honor of Temmany is at stake.” i The county of New York, with forty- six election districts missing, gives: Flamer 12,637, Osborne (D.) 104,193, ed at 6 Shearn (Municipal Ownership) 68,701, Jerome (Independent) 107,718. This gives Jerome a plurality of 8525. ‘With three slection districts missing in Manhattan, the vote was: McClellan 118,442, Hearst 101,691 and Ivins 54,656, giving McClellan a plurality of 16,752. In the borough of Brooklyn, with fourteen election districts missing, Mc- Clellan has 66,975, Hearst 82,908 and Ivins 88,438 votes, a Hearst plurality of Dr. Pierce's Pelicts Cure Comstipation. 15,988. In Queens, with four missing districts, Hearst had a plurality of 721 | at tha { which the | Brooklyn and Queens boroughs. | shows that Hearst votes., and in Richmond McClellan won by 1620 votes. e e DEFEAT OF CHIEF MURPHY. Power of the Leader of Tammany Hall Is Shaken. NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—After a campaign unusual in its public interest and excite- ment, Tammany Hall met defeat to-day in its hard-fought efforts to elect James ‘W. Osborne to the District Attorneyship of New York County and saved the May- oralty of the city by only a few thousand votes. So close was the contest that up to 11 o’clock the result was not certain, but t time the indications were that George B. McClellan, Democrat, has been re-elected Mayor for a four years' term, and that William T. Jerome, Independ- ent, had beén re-elected District Attorney. The extent to which the Tammany or- ganization was shaken may be judged from the ct that there was no fusion of the opposition parties, the means by organization had been com- bated heretofore, but that Jerome, run- ning as a candidate of no party and with | *his record in office as his platform, suc- ceeded in overcoming the former prestige of the Democratic organization, and Wil- liam R. Hearst, standing as the nominee of the Municipal Ownership League, a new factor in New York politics, came within a few thousand votes of being elected Mayor. $ At 11 o'clock, when about half the re- turns for New York County were in, it appeared that Jerome had won by sev- eral thousand.” His ‘riumph was almost entirely a personal oue, and showed that an appeal may be made successfully to voters on the strength of personal hon- sty and persistent, systematic denun- clation of graft and political bossism. Mr. Jerome's campalgn was conducted with a special opposition to Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall, ana his reputed wealth, and the result prac- tically is a defeat for Murphy as well as for Osborne. Up to 11 o'clock Mr. Hearst, who car- ried the boroughs of Brooklyn and Qucens, refuscd to concede his defeat, and his campaign mangers declared that a contest would be made. Willlam M. Ivins, the Republican nomince, was third in the race for Mayor, and ran far behind Hearst. Bird S. Coler was elected Borough President of Brooklyn on the Municipal’ Ownership ticket, and Hearst carried that borough by a plurality of 15,652, The returns up ta 11 o'clock indicate that McClellan’s pluralities in Manhattan and the Bronx and Richmond would more than overcome the Hearst pluralities in the vote for Mayor ‘Dfllled a little more than 200,000 votes, that apparently these votes were drawn almost equally m the Democratic and Republican ties. McClellan’'s vote is probably 110,000 smaller than his vote two years ago, while Ivins' vote was about 125,000 smaller than Low’s vote of two years ago. These figures, however, may not be entirely accurate owing to the fact that a number of Republicans probably voted for McClellan in order to ald in the de- || feat of Hearst, s ¥ Hearst’s large vote shows that the Municipal Ownership League must be reckoned with as a factor in the city's politics, Coler’s selection as president of An analysis of the borough of Brooklyn gives the league Cotinued on Page 4 Column 8. {“in his pre-election estimate. | Legislature he said that he counted on ROME TRIUMPH IN NEW YORK REPUBLICANS CARRY |PHILADELPHIA RESCUED STATE OF OHIO. Returns Show Herrick Has a Lead Over Pattison. DEMOCRATS GAIN — COLUMBUS, Nov. 8, 1:30 a. m.—Ohio voters yesterday chose a Governor and various State officers, though at this ' hour it 1s impossible to glve a positive statement of the winners. Only 440 of the over 4200 precincts In the State have been heard from, giving Herrick 55,060 and Pattison 53,399. In the big cities the Democratic gains thus far average 108 per precinct, while the Zain outside these cltics averages only | 34 to the precinct. Lstimating the remaining precincts at the same ratlo, | Pattison will be nearly 40,000 short of | the 230,000 Republican plurality of last year, with which comparisons are; made. Reports of estimated county bdlurali- ties thus far received simply indicate | that the result will be close, with nothing definite to show which way the victory will fall. ~ Chairman Garber at 1 o’cldek said he could not give out any formal statement | at this time, but that from the reports d him he considered the atticon and the entire Dem- ticket assured. He sald he be- n's plufality would ap- ocratic lieved that Pattiso; proximate 26,000, the figure he had glven As te the a large Democratic majority In both | houses. CINCINNATI, Nov. 7.—Since the early | reports, which estimated the plurality of | Pattison (D.) for Governor at 10,000 or | 12,000 in Hamiiton County and a like | amount in Cuyahoga County, the returns | have failed to indicate the eclection of | Pattison. Taking 22 precincts in Cin- ! cinnati, forty in Columbus, sixty in Cleye- land and’sixteen In Toledo, the avergge Democratic gain is 106 to the brecifet. In 120 precincts received outside of the above citles the Democratic gain is thirty- three to the precinet. Estimating the 33 precinets in the above cities and the 339 precincts outside mive a Democratic gain | of 189,68, or 40,261 votes less than Lay- lin's (R.) plur: in 1904, | George B. Cox, the well-known Repub- | lican leader, ght gave cut the fol-l lowing statement, withdrawing from ac-| tive service in the “Now that the el people have signtiled their preference for | city, county and State otfici md sincerely trust ih have selected wisely —I wish to announce to the public that from this day, after twenty-five years 'of | active service in the ranks of the Re-| publican party, my personal actvity inj politics shall cc I will continue to, ver and the | vote the Republican ticket, but others| must bear the burden of future cam-| paigns.

In these ninety precincts, Pattison, | behind his ticket, but up to midnight he ! T| at midnight IN THE BIG CITIES Democrat, for Governor, had a plurality of 3125 over Herrick, Republican. The Republican leaders concede that with the possible exception of Alexander Handen, Republican, for Probate Judge, the Demograts have made a clean sweep of all city and county candidates. The Leader, Independent Republican, says that Tom Johnson, Democrat, for Mayor, will bave a plurality of 12,000. COLUMBUS, Nov. 7.—At 11 o'clock to- night the Tesult of the election in Ohio might still be considered in doubt, al- though the Democratic leaders claimed the election of Pattison and the entire Democratic ticket by substantial plurali- ties, while the Republicans simply refused to concede such a claim, insisting that the returns were insufficlent at that hour | to Indicate anything except that the vote had been very heavy and that the amount of scratching had made counting very | slow. In the cities the Republican loss exceeded 100 to the precinct, but as the loss outside of the large cities was, so far az reported, only about 3) per cent, there was no certainty that it would run high enough to wipe out the 230,000 Re- publican plurality with which com- parisons were made. Less than 3%0 of the 4200 precincts in the State had been heard from at 11 o’clock. 1t has been expected that in view of the bitter fight that was made on Governor Herrick personally he would - run was running two votes to the precinct ahead of Colonel Harris, the Republican andidate for Lieutenant Governor, who was expected to poll the average party | vote. If this is continued throughout the vote would indicate that the bitterness of the attacxs on Herrick had apparently | reacted in his favor and gained him votes instead of losing them. The early reports, | though very meager, were so strongly in favor of Pattison that his election was bulletined and announced in many of the extre but as fuller returns came in, publ Democrats refused to give out any state- | ments, although they still maintained | that they had gained a notable victory. | Early in the night reports from Cin- cinnati were to the effect that Hamilton County, which had been counted on by the Republicans to give 20,000 plurality | for Herrick, had gone for Pattison, but a private message from | George B. Cox to Governor Herrick an- | nounced that Hamilton County had given i the Governor 3500 plurality. The 8000 or more given by Cuyahoga Courty for Pat- tison was close to what had been an- ticipated by Republican Chairman Dick. | —————————— Injured Woman WIill Recover. SANTA ROSA, Nov. 7—Mrs. J. J.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 7.—Philadelphia ) has been swept by the reform movement, the City Party ticket winning by a sur- prisingly large plurality. While returns from only six of the for- ty-two wards in thfs city had been count- ed up to midnight, enough is known of | the result in the remaining wards to in- dicate tHe defeat of the Republican local ticket by from 60,000 to 75,000 plurality. The victory of the City Party carries | with it the election of Willlam H. Berry, the Democratic and Reform nominee for State Treasurer. J. Lee Plummer, the Re- badly cut throughout the city and Stat and he has lost his own county, which 1 usually Republican. The resuit has every appearance of a landslide foy reform, not only in Phila- delphia but, throughout the State. The returns up to midnight show that the Republicans carried only a few wards, and these were won by narrow margins. One year ago President Roosevelt car- rled the city by 180,834 plurality. None of the Republican leaders had much to say on the result. Sheriff James L. Miles, chairman of the Republican City Committee, would not admit defeat until midnight. Asked for a statement, he said: “I have nothing to say; what's the use?"” The City party sympathizers were cele- brating their victory to-night by parad- ing the streets. As soon as the result was definitely known hundreds of them formed in line and marched down Chest- nut street. An unusual turnout was that of the campaign committee of the City party, which is made up of some of the | wealthiest and most influential people in | the city. They marched behind a band | to the tune “Onward, Christian Soldiers.” | Contrary to general expectation there was no very serious disturbance in the city to-day. There were, however, many small scrimmages at polling places, es- pecially in the more thickly settled wards, | where the Republican organization is | very strong and where the City party put up a determined fight. The Police De- | partment was at all times master of the | situation, and wherever trouble was | started it was quickly stopped. Some of | these disturbances biossomed into small | rallies, but after the smoke had cleared | away it was found that no one was se- riously wounded. United States Senator Penrose’s | ward, the Eighth, which gave more | that 4000 Republican majority last year, was carried by the City party by | 50 majority. Estimates from every county in the | State indicate the election of Berry | (Democrat) for State Treasurer by | from 75,000 to 100,000 plurality. OM- cial returns probably will increase tha| figures. ! City Party Chairman Edmons to- | night sent the following telegram to | President Roosevelt: “Philadelphia has risen to its appor-[ tunity and stands redeemed. The prin- | ciple of honesty in government so fre- quently espoused by you has won an | Our majority | approximates 75,000.” To Secretary Root the following was | sent: “The masquerade is over. The crimi- nal and corrupt combination has been driven from power by the righteous in- dignation of a great Republican eity. We have only begun. Our thanks to Yyou for your splendid aid.” At 10 p. m. the City party headquar- ters sent the following telegram to Governor Folk of Missourt: “We have swept the city by 60,000 majority.” PHILADELPHIA, Nov. T.—Incomplete returns from various parts of the State indicate the election of Berry (D.) for ublican strongholds are showing unex- pected gains for Berry. Lancaster Coun- ty. normally Republican by 10,000, is n doubt. Dauphin County, in which Har- risburg. the State Capital, is located, an- other Republican stronghold, gives Berry 1500 plurality. Other Republican countles show the same enormous Republican losses. . Berry, nominated as a Democrat, was indorsed by the Independent Republicans and the Prohibitionists. In this city the Lincoln party, formed by the independ- ents, gave Berry a tremendous vote. lne State Treasury has been under Re- publican control since 1380. Rooseveit's plurality last year was 504,000 State Treasurer was the only office for which there was a contest at to-day's election. Judge John Stewart, an ap- pointee of Govermor Pennypacker, was re-elected Assoclate Justice of the Su- preme Courtefor the full term of twenty- one years. Presiding Judge Charles E. Rice and Judges George B. Orlady and James A. Beaver of the Superior Court were elected for a term of ten years. John B. Head (D.) also was eslected a Superior Court Judge to succeed Judge Peter P. Smith, the minority member of i that body, who failed of renomination. Under the law no elector is entitled to vote for more than three candidates for Judge of the Superfor Court, of which fodr are to be elected, as was the case this year. Head was the only Demo- cratic nominee for this office, which prac- tically made his nomination equivalent to an election. Homer L. Castle, who was brought into prominence by his attacks on the State Treasury management fol- lowing the developments in the Enter- prise Bank affalr, was the Prohibition nominee for Superior Court Judge. Public interest centered in the econtest for State Treasurer, for which the prin- cipal candidates were J. Lee Plummer, nominee of the Republican and Citi- zens' parties, and William Berry, the candidate of the Democratic, Prohibition, Lincoln and Independent parties. Berry also was the cholce of the city party leaders of Philadelphia. Judge Stewart was appointed by the. Governor to succeed the late Judge Dean early last summer, and was afterward nominated by the Republican State Com- mittee for the full term. He was subse- quently nominated by the Democratic, Prohibition and all other political parties in Pennsylvania. with the exceptiom of the Socialist and Socialist Labor p-rtlag. which had full tickets in the fleld for ail the State offices voted for at to-day’s election. an ished lined ; and Retailers of Clothing g uwp to fectly. materials; well tailored; silk new, straight front to the we guarantee to fit you per- mm $17.50, $20, $a5
