NEW YORK, n. Y, Nov. 5.-The Re-
publicans carried New York State by So 600
plurality, New Jersey by over 5000,
Maryland by 10000, and claims to have
captured Kentucky. Besides swinging
these States over into the Republican COL
umn they increased their usual majority
in Massachusetts,, Ohio and all other
States where elections were held. 1t was
Democratic Waterloo. Tammany elected
her local ticket by 10000 and New York
went Democratic for Secretary of State by
10000, but the Republicans came down to
the bridge with over 100000 votes to spare.
In the Tenth Congressional District
Amos ]. Cummings CD was elected, but
his success was plainly due to his personal
popularity. OF the so Senators in this
State the Democrats elected only 16, and
OF the $50 Assemblymen only 46. In the
two cities below the Harlem the Demo-
cratic plurality of 60, 349 two years ago has
been reduced about 1900. giving the State
to the head of the Republican ticket by
$4,000 plurality in round numbers.
The two branches of the Legislature re-
main, as before, under the direction of the
Republicans. The election throughout the
State was orderly and rapidly conducted
and the results were quickly compiled. All
the talk about the difficulty of handling
the blanket ballot went for naught. So
far as the success or failure of the blanke t
ballot was concerned, the advices from all
over the State show that there was little
or no trouble and that the ballot was so
much of a success that the vote was polled
quicker than ever before. The total vote
of the State shows falling off compared
with the vote of 1898, the decrease being
confined, however, to the districts north of
the Harlem River. The city vote was
equal to that of two years ago.
The Tammany men were wildly enthusi-
astic tonight when it became authorita-
lively known that the fusion ticket had
been beaten. Under the stimulus of vic
tory the Wigwam took on an appearance of
beehive. into which the workers swarmed
in almost incredible numbers. The hall
was visited by at least 1000 braves. The
crowd cheered for Tammany and Croker
with vim. Downstairs Leader Sheehan
entertained the big ones who called to pay
their respects.
"This victory means that the Democrats
are coming to their Senses" Mr.. Sheehan
said. This is a Democratic city. Mis-
representations have been made about
Tammany, and the people believed them.
Now they have come to find that the
charges were false, and they have done the
only thing they could do-return to their
support OF Tammany. Yes, l think the
Democratic victory will be permanent. a
comparison of the government OF the city
as administrated by the reformers with the
work of Tammany Hall will show up Tam
many in such favorable light that the
people cannot conscientiously desert the
organization again"
Rev. DR.. Charles II. Parkhurst expressed
no surprise at the result of to-day's elec-
ton in this city. He said:
''All l can say is that if we have been de-
feated my belief and experience are that
we should learn a lesson from our defeat,
such as 1t will be necessary that the citi-
zeHs Oh this town shall be thoroughly con-
'ersaht with, in order that they may be
