The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1893-11-09
NEW YORK.


most peculiar campaigns in the his
tory of the state closed at sundown
this evening, and it is safe to say the
Democratic managers are not more
surprised at the result than are the
Republicans. The dominant issue in
all portions of the state has been ring
rule and Republicans in New
York City, Brooklyn, Albany and
Buffalo have been greatly assisted by
organized efforts of independent DEM
Gratis. I. H. Maynard, candidate on
the Democratic ticket for judge OF the
court of appeals, against whom the
independent Democrats waged war
most bitter and unrelenting, has been
surprisingly and overwhelmingly de-
feated. In New York he ran $4,000 be-
hind his ticket, Brooklyn over $4,000,
and Erie county severall thousand
At most, without exception, the re-
turns from every part of the state
show he is heavily scratched. The re-
suit at this time seems that he is de.
feated by a plurality close in the
neighborhood of 100000. Practically
complete returns from many OF the
counties and scattering returns from
Others Indicate that the Republicans
have elected their entire state ticket
and will have good working majority
in-the legislature. In Brooklyn the
local campaign was fought most bit
terly. Mayor Booty, renominated by
the Democrats, was opposed by the
Young Mems Independent Democratic
club of Brooklyn most fiercely and
the Republican candidate Charles
Schierer indorsed, with the re-
suit that the Democratic ma
iority of 10000 at the last cleo
tion was completely overturned and a
Republican mayor elected by about
$4,000. VIM. J. Gaynor, prominent
Democrat, who for the past two years
led in the fight against Boss McKugh-
lin and his ring, was nominated by the
Republicans for supreme court judge
in the Second district with the result
of 10000 majority in his favor.
Almost riot occurred at a polling
booth in Gravesend, asuburb of Brook
lyn. this morning Col. Bacon, counsel
of the Republican general committee,
and a party of prominent Republicans
arrived at the town hall few minutes
before the polls opened, intending to
serve ALI injunction from the supreme
court authorizing them to watch the
progress of the balloting. Just as they
stedped out of their carriage they were
set upon and beaten. One man was
struck a violent blow in the face and
had a portion of his wiskers torn off
A clergyman was knocked down and
several other Republicans were more
or less injured. Bacon was arrested
The affair created great excitement.
