BOSSES KNOCKED OUT
MoKaneism and Furguesonism
Throttled at the Polls.
New Utrecht's Tyrant Defeated by
1.-The Evening World
Right and Justice Triumph Over
brutality and Crime.

Furgueson has been defeated in New
Utrecht and McKane's creatures have
been swamped in Gravesend. No Won
der the honest citizens of those two
Kings County towns are rejoicing to-
day over the result of the election Of
yesterday.
The rCformers had hard fight in New
Utrecht, Van Pelt having a majority
Of Is. In Gravesend, Bennett, the anti
McKane candidate for Supervisor, has
a majority of l66.
Everybody in New Utrecht says the
defeat of Furgueson was due to the
exposures made by THE Evening
World" Had the boss been able to
vote the seventy men he had registered
from the Inebriates' Home. the result
would have been different, but when his
schemes were laid bare by The Even
ing World' and information of his de-
signs was filed with a Supreme Court
Justice, the boss thought discretion the
better part of valor and decided to keep
the seventy at the Home.
The election of yesterday means a
revolution in the MANAGEMENT of these
two towns. Many of the abuses and ir-
regularities that have so long disgraced
Gravesend under the McKane regime
will now be corrected, and in New
Utrecht the citizens will have a chance
to investigate the gas contract, the grad
ing jobs, the peculiar assessment ar
other suspicious affairs by which Fur
gueson became rich and the taxpayers
poor. 1t Is not unlikely that the result OF
the investigation will be scandal that
will deeply Involve Furgueson.
Contrary to general expectations, there
were few fights at the polls in Graves
end and New Utrecht. The attempt OF
the Mckaneites to shut off Col. Bacon by
an injunction proved abortive. Furgue-
son evidently did not care to overreach
himself. and allowed the voters to cast
their ballots without molestation. This
was the first time in many years that
there had not been fighting OF, inVmda'
ton at the polls in New Utrecht.
The Democratic candidate for Super
visor in Fiatbush. Henry .Hesterberg
beat John Mckinney by SO in the towr
of Flatbush. The entire Democratic
ticket was elected. Alfred Steers ant
Edward S. Sweeney were chosen Jus
tices of the Peace.
The Republicans carried the town O.
Flatlands by safe maJorities for all theii
nominees. John l.. Ryder, their candi
date for Supervisor. was elected owe,

FRANKLIN PARK. n j.. April A.
The action OF the Law and order League
of this place In ordering all negroes to
leave Franklyn Park by Saturday night
has caused II commotion among the col
ored settlers.
The Law and order League was in
duced to take this step on account OF
the feeling of unsafcty among the white
residents of Franklyn Park since the
horrible Baker tragedy, when Mrs Moore
Baker and her infant were murdered
by two negroes. who were in turn killed
by Baker.
Some Of the negroes have already left
Franklyn Park. and II Is expected that
others will follow their example.
The Law and order Society is in earn
est and determined to get rid of the
negroes, and II necessary, the League
will offer the negroes Inducements to
leave for good.
