ELECTION NEWS.

Alderman Gessner Tells How the Re-
 publicans Were Defeated What Another Prominent Official Says.
 Alderman Gessner of the Eighth ward was quite talkative last night over the election, and he didn't hesitate in condemning the Republicans for not doing their duty. "It was the Democrats who helped us," he said, "and the Republicans who defeated us. Why, there were enough business men right here in the center who belong to the Eighth ward who could have elected Sloat, had they voted. We had the carriages going all day long, but very few would come to the polls. The reason given in almost every instance is, We're beaten anyhow. Whats the use of voting? Now we probably have as good a canvass in the Eighth as there is in any ward in the city. When we had got through checking the Republicans had a majority of 55. When the votes were counted the major ity was over 200, showing that many Demo- crats had voted for Sloet. The usual vote boiled in the Eighth is about l, 100, but this time 1t was only about 800. The Repub- licans stayed at home; the Democrats turned out, and enough voted for Sloat to have made his majority good one had the Repub- licans done their duty. It was the same case in nearly all the wards"
 'sDo the Republicans intend to contest the electionW he was asked.
 "Not that know of. Whats the uses It wouldn't do any good, for we're beaten. That's enough, ain't ita"
