Attorney Of Queens county, is being
! supported by all the Democrat factions.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6, P. NJ MAYNARD.
| the Democratic candidate for Secretary
| of State, is being heavily scratched in
! the German districts on account of his
| legislative record on the liquor license
| question. On the other hand, many Re
| publicans are voting for Maynard because
| of their prohibition leanings. The vote
! throughout the State is about even with
! that of two years ago. The greatest in
| terest centres in the contest between
! Carr and Maynard for Secretary Of State.

NEW YORK, Nov. :. 2:15 A. M.-The
Herdd says: New York by yesterdays
vote passes into the category of doubtful
States in the Presidential election of 1884.
and the managers of the Democratic party
have nobody but themselves to blame for it.
At the time we go to press it appears that
only part of the Democratic State ticket,
/ probably, is elected, and this by a maori-
/ ty of only 10000 at the HIGHEST The
majority for some of the names on it Is
! less, and the leading candidate on it,
Maynard, perhaps, is defeated. This, at
/ best, is loss of more than 175, 900 votes
/ from the Democratic majority on the
/ State ticket last year. A strong Repub-
/ lican majority is elected to the next State
/ Senate. Probably it will be in total
/ of 32. The present Senate is Demo-
/ cratic by majority of 4. The AS
/ sembly is in doubt, with the
| chances favOring a small Republican ma
/ j0rity. The present Assembly is Demo-
/ cratic by nearly two-thirds majority in
a total of 12S, and returns from the coun-
| try counties also show what Is very
| Ominous of evil to the Democrats
next year-that there is strong
| Republican reserve vote which was
not cast yesterday. The election in
/ BROOKLYN yesterday was close all around.
| Mayor Low was reelected by a small ma
! jority. Herman, Democrat, and Daggett,
| Republican, We're elected Senators, and
one Senatorial district is in doubt. The
/ county and city tickets are also in doubt"
! NEW YORK, Nov. I, 3 A. M.-The vote in
