Franklin Bartlett. who was nominated by 'h'
Republicans and National Democrats IN the
With District. was regarded as strong cahd'-
date who would probably receive IA majority OF
the votes In the district. While he made
successful canvass In Richmond County. which
he carried by more than 100 plurality the
overwhelming Tammany vote in the lower part
~ this city prevented his reelection. His op-
ponent. John II. G.. Vehslage. the Tammany and
silver candidate, is coal-deaer who Is little
known TO the public except for term OF service
In the Assembly. The contest between J. Muir

District. was carried on with the greatest bitter
ness as the result Of the election two years ago
in the same district contested. and Mr..
Mitchell won after a careful investigation by
committee of Congress. on the ground Of n large
fraudulent vote for his opponent. Mr. Mitchell
made a useful member OF Congress In the shor.
term Of service and his sure and more emphatic
victory over Mr.. Walsh this year was well re-
ceived by all friends Of the sound money cause,
The closeness Of the contest In the IXth Dis
trct between Timothy j. Campbell and Thomas
J. Bradley left the result uncertain for many
hours fter the polls had closed but later figures
indicated Mr.. Campbcll's defeat.
