New YORK, Nov. 6.-With the total
vote in New York city nearly 10000
less than it was at the contest for mayer
one year ago, Tammany Halls LEGAL
ticket polled about $4,000 more ballots
than were cast for Hugh J. Grant last
November, while it is estimated that
the anti-Tammany vote is something
like 10000 smaller than that which was
given to Strong last year. The fusionist
leaders admit that for some reason there
was an absence this year of unity of
purpose and concert of action that
characterized the work of the
anti -Tammany forces last year. In this
city the majority for the Democratic
state ticket is Appropriated at 10000
greater than the average of the major
ity for the Tammany candidates, which
are from 90, 900 for Sohmer, for recorder,
to 1900 for Purroy, for county clerk.
The last named is the chairman of the
Tammany committee on organization.
A list of the new legislature, based
upon corrected returns from nearly all
election districts and careful estimates
in others, shows that the state senate
will consist of 30 Republicans, IA DEM
ocrats and independent, and the as.
sembly will be made up of 80 Republic
ans and 81 Democrats.
NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-New York state
has been carried by the Republicans by
pluralities ranging from $4,000 to so, 900,
compared with plurality of "a ,4S4 for
the head of the ticket two years ago.
Returns from more than one-half of the
election districts outside of the cities of
New York and Brooklyn, or "above the
Harlem" shows net Republican gain
of 12,S03, as compared with the vote of
two years ago.
Maintaining the same average, the
gains will reach $4,000 outside of greater
New York. In the two cities below the
Harlem the Democratic plurality of co.
343 two years ago has been reduced
about IL 600, giving the state to the
head of the Republican ticket by 90, 900
plurality in round numbers.
In 1898, Palmer (Rep.), for secretary
of state, had a plurality of S4,S27 in
New York state above the Harlem river,
while Myer (Dem.) had plurality in
New York and Kings counties of co.
343, giving the Republican candidate

vote.
This year Palmer (Iiep. }, for secretary

a Republican plurality of 1885,; q Re-
publican gain of 20, 152 compared with

$1,000 in the state at large. The two
branches of the legislature remain as
before, under the direction of IT,
publicans. The election throughout the
state was orderly and rapidly conducted
and their results were quickly COM
piled. All the talk about the difficulty
of handling the blanket ballot went for
naught. So far as the success or failure
of the blanket 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 success that
the vote was polled quicker than ever
before. The figures from New York
City in the early evening showed there
was little or no chance for the Demo.

would not offset the nominal plurality
which the Republicans bring down to
Harlem bridge. The total vote Of the
state shows a falling off compared with
with the vote of 1893, the decrease being
confined, however, to the districts north
of Harlem river. The city vote is fully
equal to that of two years ago.
