Result of the Election a
Albany. n. Y.

Unexpected Result of the Election at
Albany, n. Y.
ALBANY, April 10.-One of the quietest
municipal elections ever held in this city
was followed by almost pandemonium
on the public streets when the returns
showed that the Democratic ticket had
been defeated by tremendous majority
in favor of the Pure Election party, COM
posed of Republicans and independent
Democrats.
The battle of the day was between the
Democratic organization here led by D.
C.. Herrick, supporter of Cleveland on
the side of James w. Rooney, it's candi-
date for Mayor, and the honest elections
party, composed of Republicans and Hill
Democrats, supporting combination
ticket composed of members of both
parties.
TtThe result is tonight that the party
that has controlled the city for fifteen
years must leave the offices. The organ
iZatlon party last fall gave majority for
the Democratic nominee for Secretary of
State of 1853 while tonight it gave
more than that majority on the other
side. Orrin E. Wilson, Republican, is
elected Mayor by 1924 majority. The
two Aldermen-at-La Large are Republican
and the Honest Election party men re-
spectively.
In the council there will be five Re-
publicans, five honest election men, five
organization Democrats, besides the two
Aldermen above named. The Board of
Supervisors (city only, honest election
party, IL; organization Democrats, 6. The
Board OF Supervisors is undoubtedly Re-
publican, as the county is to be heard
from, and is usually Republican.

THE NEW CHINESE TREATY.
It's Opponents Encouraged Over
the Turn of Affairs.
WILL DELAY ACTION UNTIL THE
TARIFF IS DISPOSED OF.
The Tariff Bill Discussed in the Senate
Tho House. In Committee of the
Whole, Considers the Postof1ice
Appropriation Bill.
Special to the REcoRD-UN1oS.


WASHINGTON, April 10.-The oppo-
nents of the ratification of the Chinese
treaty are decidedly encouraged over the
prospects since the treaty was taken up
in executive session Saturday. They
have been led to believe that many Re-
publican Senators would assist in oppos-
ing the ratification and were not without
hope Of assistance from the Democratic
side. The fact that tWO-thirds vote is
necessary to secure the ratification of the
treaty is favorable to the opposition.
They will first try to defeat the treaty,
and if they fail will then seek to have it
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. White of Califo. MIA,
who is favorable to the treaty, is ex-
pected to reach Washington this week.
His position will probably have intiu-
ence on the Democratic side. 1t now
looks as if the opposition would try to
delay consummation of the treaty until
the tariff is disposed of.
Secretary Olney has rendered a decis-
ion which will be Of the greatest lmpor-
tance in the enforcement of the Chinese
Exclusion Act. Attorney Olney
holds that Chinese merchant, in order
to enter the United States or return here
after he has once left, must be designated
by name in the firm. Formerly under
the word Co. any number of Celestials
might enter the country, claiming to be
members OF the firm so designated. This
they can no longer do, but their names
must appear in the firm name.
In pursuance of this decision, there
fore, Secretary Carlisle has sent a tele-
gram to the Collectors of Customs at
Portland, Suspension Bridge, New York;
Key West, New Orleans, Port Town
send, Pembina, Burlington and San
Francisco, instructing them accordingly.

JUDGE JENKINS, ORDER.
Continuation of the Investigation by 6
congressional Committee.

Continuation of the Investigation by q
congressional Committee.
MILWAUKEE, April 10.-The Jenkins
investigation was continued to-day. Chief
Wilkinson of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Trainmen was the first witness. He
related the facts concerning the confer
ence of the Northern Pacific at the time
of the threatened strike. He and his as
sociates came to the conclusion thew
could not advise the men to leave the en-
ployment OF the receivers, but could adj
wise them to remain. To do otherwise
would be contempt OF court. The method
of bringing about strike was explained.
No steps toward a strike had been taken
by the Northern Pacific. Witness had no
power to order strike without action of
the employees. 1t is thought he had the
legal right to confer with the employees
about striking. but knew the right was
affected by the road being in the hands of
q receiver.
The investigation came to sudden end,
so far as Milwaukee is concerned, at 5
O'Clock tonight. All the witnesses were
examined. and as there was no docu-
mentary evidence to go over, there was
nothing else to do. and the affair will now
continue in Washington. The interest
was in Mr.. Spooner's testimony. He tes-
titled that Attorney Miller had dictated
the issuance of the first injunction which
forbade the employees of the Northern
Pacific from striking, and also the order
which was issued by Judge Jenkins. He
said this was customary among attorneys
in like cases. He said, however, that he
had nothing to do with the supplement-
ary injunction. Mr.. Spooner said he
took for the basis of the order for the in
junction Il decision by Judge Pardee of
the Federal Court in the Higgins case,
but Attorney Curtis admitted in answer
to a question by Attorney Harper that
there was no precedent for Judge Jen-
kins' order. There was some lively spar
ring between MIR. Spooner and Attorney
Harper, who represented labor chiefs.
The testimony of the labor chiefs was
similar to that of Chief Clark and Chief
Sargent yesterday. They all agreed that
the injunction prevented them from ex-
ercising their constitutional rights. They
were unanimous in saying that no man
bad felt compelled to remain at work,
but what they objected to was the appli-
cation of such power by the court
which they did not think was justice.
