delay in collecting the returns than ever
known here before. Up to O'Clock this
afternoon the vote had been completely
canvassed in but eighty-six precincts in
this city. These gave Markham, R., for
governor, 1884; Pond, D., 1899. Out
side precincts have been coming in
more rapidly, and the total vote
in 769 precincts throughout the
state, including the eighty six
precincts in this city, give Mark
ham, 57459; Pond, 5O,77s. Markham's
plurality, 66S1.
SandersOn Elected Mayor.
These constitute returns from little
| over one-third of the total number of
precincts in the state. The Democrats
| concede the election of the entire state
Republican ticket, and in this city the
Republicans have undoubtedly elected
sanderson mayor, and have also elected
the entire municipal and county tickets,
with the possible exception of the
sheriff, indicating a change of fully
seven thousand votes in this city in
favor of the Republicans.
Eighty-six precincts in San Francisco
give Sanderson, R., for mayor, 5911 !;
Goad, 4551; O'Donnell, 4S10.
Stanford's Recollection Assured.
There are twenty hold-over members
OF the state senate, OF whom twelve are
Republicans and eight Democrats.
Twenty senators and eighty assembly
men were elected yesterday. The re-
! turns are too incomplete to make any
accurate estimate, but with the present
Republican majority in the state senate,
| the Republicans are sure of a safe ma
jority on joint ballot, and the election
! of Republican to succeed United States
Senator Leland Stanford is assured.
! Six Republican congressman.
The returns from the six congress
ional districts of the state indicate that
the Republicans have carried every dis.
trict. Later returns from the First dis
trict, which was in doubt, show that
Barham has been making net gains
throughout the district, and is appar-
emily elected. This will give the Re-
publicans a gain of two congressman in
this state.
