That the nomination of Isaac II. May
'pard for Judge of the Court of Appeals
las the cause of the defeat of the state
Ltmocratic ticket is clearly apparent
hom the latest figures obtainahle of
the result OF yesterdays election.
The %slaughtering of Maynard at the
polls was the great feature of yesterdays
battle. He was knitted in every election
district in the city, and the fact that he
ran about $4,000 votes behind his ticket
II evidence of the tremendous load which
the Democrats were carrying in the fight,
by attempting 10 bolster up 50 unpopular
and so unfit a candidate.
The vote for Judge of the Court OF APP
peals throughout the State is equally
surprising. Edward T. Bartlett, the Re-
publican candidate, secured in the var
ious counties pluralities of about 10000,
while those for Maynard do not exceed
5000, a plurality for Bartlett of $1,000.
While these figures are not official they
are believed to be very near correct.
The official returns may show an even
larger plurality for Bartlett.

Meyer, jr., the city gave about $4,000
plurality out of a total vote of nearly
259, 900, Meyer receiving over 1856, 900 and
Palmer 5000. Maynard's vote was
about l22. OOO: Bartlett's over $1,000.
The vote for the Prohibition, Populist
and Socialist candidates for the Court OF
Appeals was 1850: giving Maynard a
majority of 1000. His plurality Is a
little more than $1,000, or $1,000 less than
Meyers
Compared with the registration, which
was 265. 900, a vote of 259,OOO shows a
smaller falling off than in any recent
election, indicating how thoroughly
aroused the people were and how faith
fully they did their duty.
In 1889 the falling off was 10000; In
1890, 1000; in 1891, 81 900. and in 1892,
1000.
Another story that the figures tell, is
that Maynard's defeat is not IA victory
gained by Republican votes. On the
contrary, the figures show that in this
city, the Republicans were apathetic,
and did not poll their full party vote,
The total vote for Palmer is something
like 76, OOO~
This would be a fair Republican vote
In an of year, but it is well known that
those figures exceed the total of the Re
publican vote cast. Thousands of Demo-
Gratis voted for Bartlett, and in many in
stances the whole Republican ticket, to
show their dissatisfaction with machine
men and methods.
The Indifference or other causes that
kept the Republicans from the polls is
ascrlbed by Republicans to the rotten
ness Of the local Republican organiza-
ton as now managed, and they look for
a reorganization of the party In this city
as one of the results of yesterdays cleo
ton.
Mr.. Plat is now, or will be, in COM
plete control OF the party machinery
BY getting rid of Jacob NJ. Patterson and
others he will a supreme sway. Mr..
\Platt has always been called a boss,
NUT he never had supreme sway In party
engagement like nate Hin!
HE has won chief now and
republicans expect great things from
him, A Governor is TO be elected next
year, and If he is not a Republican
Plat will be blamed for 1t.
Tammany has made IA clean sweep
OF the city inc county ticket by plu-
ralities which. in the cose of all the
candidates, except perhaps John II. Eel
Vows for Distrlct-Attorney, Will range
Ihbout the same as those given for the
State ticket.
{ Mr.. Croker has also pulled through
all his State Senators, and all the AS
semblymen elected for this city, with
the exception of three,
In those three districts the liepubli'
Ns were successful. James II, Shelf
was elected In the Eleventh Dis
by n plurality OF lea votes over
prick J, McClcy, his Tammany OPP
