DEMOCRATS CARRY newark.
NEWARK, N. J., oct. 8.-Thls was day
OF surprises for the politicians OF Newark.
Mayor Haynes, DEM, was reelected by u
majority OF over / 600, but the Republicans
| elected enough aldermen to hold the con-
troll OF council for another year. Harrigan,
who has represented the Twelfth ward,
which IL usually good for 800 or 900 DEM
ocrltic majority, was defeated by over 200
majority. This Is the second time In the
history of the ward that q Republican has
been elected alderman. This was the great
surprise OF the day, but WAS mainly due to
the opposition OF the ltsv. Father Fleming,
whose church is In that ward.
There.was very little excitement In any
part Of the city, except In Il district OF the
| Sixth ward, where they attempted to vote
5DO men In one hour. The new council
| will stand: 10 Republicans, IL Democrats
and one In doubt. There Is not tine least
doubt OF 1t being a complete Democratic
victory, so far us the head OF the ticket ts
concerned, az Haynes got over LOO ma
lority over Richards.
