ROLLING IT UP.

ROLLING IT UP.
Late returns from all but 497 out of
the 1888 election districts north OF the
Harlem river in New York state, give
Palmer, Republican, for secretary of
state, 344, ,709; King, Democrat, 224, 715, a
Republican plurality of 1894 outside
of New York and Kings counties,
showing a Republican gain of 26, 1873
compared with 1893. Deducting the
Democratic plurality below the Har-
lem, the Republican plurality in the
state at large will be in excess of TO-
600.
The Morning Advertiser tomorrow
will say editorially: although the
figures of the Tammany vote show
that the organization possessed great
er strength than had been generally
supposed, the success of the Tammany
ticket is no surprise to citizens who
have intelligentIy observed the prog
ress of events. The triumph of Tam
many is due first of all and above all
to the blunders, the apathy and the
incapacity of it's opponents. Another,
and the most humiliating of all the
causes of fusion defeat was the be-
trayal of reform by some of the men
who are bound by every consideration
of honor and patriotism to support
the union ticket
REPUBLICAN sHOUTERS.
The Press tomorrow will say editor
tally: This is a Republican United
States. That is the greatest fact that
yesterdays voting esta ablished. New
York and New Jersey take their places
among the Republican commemorative
by majorities so magnificent as to
leave no doubt that in the great ma
tional conflict Of 1896 they will stand
with all their might for Republican
candidates and Republican politics.
The people have given a new declara-
tion against the Democratic party and
all it means"
The Stats Zeitung tomorrow will
say editorially: "Platt has attained
his object. Through the fusion with
the state Democracy of our city, the
plurality for the state Democratic
ticket has been so reduced that the
Republican plurality above the Har-
lem cannot be counterbalanced. The
victory over the fusionists is, in their
circumstances, the only success of the
friends of personal liberty, and it Is
bedimmed in that it will be pronounced
by Tammany as it's victory at the
same time
CUMMINGS WINS.
The election of Amos ]. Cummings,
Democrat, to congress from the Tenth
district is conceded by the Republicans.
Last year the district went Republican
by small margin. Cummings plur.
ality is estimated at 1000.
Foley, Democrat, who ran for the
senate against ex-Police Inspector
Williams in the Twelfth district claims
his election by 5000 or 1000 majority.
Williams comedies his defeat.
In 2,769 districts out of 1883 election
districts outside of New York and
King, King had 337, ,093; Palmer, 446. 3O5.
The same in 1898 gave Myer 242, ,522;
Palmer, $50, ,621.
NEW YORK, Nov. g., $3.50 a. m.-Re-
turns so far show the election to the
assembly of SO Republicans and 4s
Democrats.
AS nearly as can be estimated the
senators elected were as follows: Re-
publican, Sc; Democrats, IS; Independ-
ent, l.
The nearly completed returns show
that Tammany fell behind the vote
for the Democratic state ticket by
from 10000 to 24,000 in the city.
HE'S SORRY.
In an interview Commissioner Roose-
welt said at police headquarters: "I
admit the Democratic county ticket is
successful. 1t is too bad that the
Coos ran ticket for themselves, thus
compelling the fusion ticket to go it
alone"
BROOKLYN MAYORALTY.
BROOKLYN. N. Y, Nov. 5.-The
elections in Kings county passed off
very quietly. The mayoralty contest
was very close and the result up to
a late hour was uncertain. At a.
m. $50 districts gave Wurster 57,O5S:
Grout, 5S,332; Shepard, 6,793. At a.
m. reports from 533 districts gave
Wurster 64,S76; Grout, Ga, 422; Shepard
1882. Wurster leads by 454
GAINS AND LOSSES.
ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 5.-As the re-
turns from the counties north of New
York came in all predictions of Re
publican loss and Democratic gains
were noted. Palmer, for secretary OF
state, whose plurality, it was alleged
would be greatly cut in all northern
counties, showed a gain over his vote
of 1893 in almost every county he had
gained, except, possibly, New York,
Kings and Erie, while his opponent,
King, had lost. The only way in which
there could be said to be a Democratic
gain towards normality in the vote
was induced by the gain from New
York city. In counties where the Dem
ocrats had expected to gain, except
Albany, the gain was not apparent,
and the whole support of the Demo-
cratic state ticket seemed to fall upon
New York and Kings county. In
Kings county the surprise was great.
1t was the home county of the Demo-
cratic nominee for secretary of state,
and yet 1t had not polled the vote that
it was supposed it would indeed it fell
farbehind. Even Albany county did
not come up to the record it was sup
posed to make. 1t found favorite in
its nominee for secretary of state and
kept its plurality down to the barest
kind of plurality for the Democrat.
The result, taken at It's best, was a.
well-told victory for Republicans, SO
far as state issues went
In the municipalities the Democracy
won won: Tammany is in control of New
York; YORK city, the Cleveland element in
dominant in all other parts of the
state.a result that is not satisfactory
to either party.
The state majorities for all Republi-
can candidates are In excess of any
figures thought of by leaders of any
party. David B. Hill will not go back
to the senate. at Washington unless the
Democrats should elect big enough
majority in the assembly next year to
overcome the Republican majority in
the state senate on joint ballot. In
New York city the Good Government
organization will not be entitled to
print its candidates on the regular bal
lots next year, if it has a ticket in the
field, as 1t did not poll the per cent of
all votes cast necessary under the law
for place.
