The Empire State Elects Republican on
GERS and Legislature.
ALBANY, Nov. 6.-New York has not
added another landslide record to the IA
NOUS ones Of the past two years. The par
ty which came in power by one Of these
landslides is not by the vote Of yesterday,
dismissed, as was predicted, except as re-
lates to few municipalities. The state
officers elected two years ago by the Re-
publican party have been re-eleoted and
two branches Of the legislature remain, as
before, under the direction of the Repub-
licans. The election throughout the state
was orderly and rapidly conducted, and
the results were so quickly compiled that
all the talk about the difficulty Of ham
ding 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 OF no trouble, and that the bal
lot was so much Of a success that the vote
was polled quicker than ever before.
At an early hour it was apparent that
the Democratic gain, while considerably
over the vote of 1898 and 1894, was not
sufficient TO carry the state Some Of those
earlier, returns showed a rather sgnif-
cant fact, so far as New York city was
concerned, and that was that whilo there
was a large increase in the Democratic
vote over the past two years there was not
the same percentage Of loss to be attribut-
cd to the Republican ticket, and this fact
was also evident In the districts received
early in the night from outside somo OF
the big cities. This was accounted for by
the fact that the Democratic vote Of 1898
had been greatly reduced by people of that
party remaining away from the polls.
The following are the state officers elect
ed;
Secretary Of State-John Palmer.
Comptroller-James A. Roberts.
Recommendation B. Colvin.
Attorney General-Theodore E. Han
cock.
State Engineer and Surveyor-Camp-
Associate Judge of Court of Appeals
Celora e. Martin.
The legislature will be strongly Repub-
lican. OF the 30 senators elected 81 are
Republicans, 12 Democrats and / Inde-
pendent Republican. The Republicans
have elected 100 assemblymen and the
Democrats Al.
NYAoK, Nov. 6.-Rookland county gives
n Republican majority, and Senator Lex
ow is reelected.
UTICA, Nov. 6.-Henry J. Coggeshall has
been elected senator for the Thirty-fourth
district by an approximate majority Of
$500.
NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Returns from the
counties north Of the Harlem river give
Palmer (Rep.), for secretary of state,
844, 709, King (Dem.) a24, 715, a Ropub-
lican plurality of 119, 994 outside Of New
York and Kings county, showing a Re
publican gain Of &c, 1888 compared with
1S93
The gains over the vote of 1898, when
the present Republican state officers were
first candidates, were made chiefly In the
interior Of the state. Despite the fact that
the Democratic party carried New York
city by plurality of $4,000, there was a
relative gain for the Republicans as COM
pared with 1893, when the Democratic
state ticket carried the city by 81, 900 plu-
Tality. In Kings county, however, the
Democrats made positive gain over 1898.
when the Republican state candidates had
q plurality amounting TO 1000 votes.
Uhis year the Democrats appear to have
carried the county by plurality of 5000.
The Republican party elected "A maiori-
BY Of its candidates for the Legislature. Il
looks as though the senate would have as
It's members 81 Republicans, IL Democrats
and ! dependent-Henry J. Coggeshall,
who had Democratic Endorsement. In
the assembly there will be 1O7 Republic
ans and 43 Democrats. This gives the Re-
publicans a majority on joint ballot Of So
votes.
The term of Office Of David b. Hill as
United States senator win expire in 1897.
The Republican senators just elected win
vote for Mr.. Hills successor. With Re-
publican majority OF 25 in tho senate al
ready assured, Mr.. Hill must manage to
elect so Democratic assemblymen in 1896
In order to be reelected. This would give
him 80 assemblymen and 13 senators, II
Coggeshall should vote for him, or a total
of 102 votes, and the Republican party
would be in the minority, with 81 sena-
tors and 81 assemblymen, or with a total
vote Of only 90 on joint ballot. Mr. Hill,
therefore. viii have to increase the Dem
ocratic vote in the assembly Of 1896 to 50
votes, or to make gain in the fall of 1896
Of 5S votes
The following Is the estimated plurali-
