The Republican plurality in 1898 was
1851, and in 1894, 1854. The result of
Tuesdays voting, therefore, shows a
Democratic gain of 1853 over 1894, and
a Democratic loss of 1856 over 1898, on
the Gubernatorial vote. The vote for
Clerk. Auditor and Recorder shows a
substantial Democratic gain over 1898,

Austin, Texas, November 6.-Threat-

with a turn, three miles in all Start
ers, Bubear and Barry, English; Rogers
and Teemer, American. The race was
a terrific one from start to finish and
the yellow flag was flying clear to the
mile and a half stake. The English
crew turned and got away first. The
Americans were right after them, how
ever. Down the course 10 the three
fOurths flag, a stroke of 80 was pulled.
At the three-Quarter flag they passed

From this quarter the average stroke

the finish line Teemer gave out entire

the line by himself The Englishmen
were so close on the Americans when
Teemer gave out that they Immediately
shot past and took the lead, passing
over the line five boat lengths in the
lead. Time. 17:40. This time was
made over a course with hardly rip
pie noticeable anywhere and lowered
the worlds record on three mile

leans had been favorites in the pools
with bets of 3 and 8 to l on them, caused
many sports to go dead broke tonight,
while patriotic Engishmen in attend
