DEMOCRATS CARRY CHICAGO.
Carter Harrison HAD More Votes Than
All other Candidates Combined.

Carter Harrison Had More Votes Than
All other Candidates Combined.
Chicago. April THE mayoralty
election yesterday resulted i'm q decis-
i've victory tor the Democratic party
Its candidate Carter Harrison, having
more votes than all the other candi-
dates combined. He defeated Sears by
from $1,000 to 10000 votes. In the pres
idcntial election Mckinley had So 99S
plurality over Bryan Several wards
always strongly Republican were car
ried by Harrison.
The feature Of the election was the
strength shown by Harlan. He ran
second to Harrison, and although an
Independent with no organization be-
hind him, he secured more votes than
the regular Republican candidate,
Judge Nathaniel Sears. one thing that
helped Harlan greatly was that Sears
was looked upon as being the nominee
OF the Republican machine. which has
grown unpopular in the ranks of the
local Republican party. Harlan secur-
ed a heavy vote from men who would
have voted for the regular Republi-
can nominee had it not been that they
wished to express their opinion of the
machine. He drew some votes from
the Democratic party but not many.
The vote for Hesslng was largely
from the Germans, and came from both
parties. He was the nominee of the
gold Democrats although he went be-
fore the people on a business mans
platform The result was never much
in doubt, although Harlan, Sears and
Hessing all claimed that they could not
be beaten. The campaign was fought
