TAMMAAY TRIUMPHs
WITH APPARENT EASE
Van Wycki is Elected MayorofGreat-
er New York by
$4,000.
SETH Low WAS SECOND MAN
Democrats Garry the state for Chief
Justice OF the Appellate
Court by q Large
Majority.

New FORK, Nov. 3.-The result of the
election in Greater New York is a COM
plete victory for the Tammany city,
borough and county tickets. Van
W.Nck. the head of the city ticket, was
elected mayor of Greater New York
by n plurality of s7,3os. each of the
five boroughs contributed to the grand
total. Seth Low OF the Citizens union
candidate for mayor. carried several
assembly districts and polled a large
vote, but all the boroughs gave a plu-
rality for Tnmmany. Low is we'll
ahead of Tracy, the republican nomi-
nee, who was third in the race. low
polled 146,412 votes; Tracy, 1O1, OLE;
George polled 20,422 votes, and the
combined votes cast for Gleason,
Wardwell, Saniel and Cruickshank,
candidates of the prohibition, social-
list labor and united democracy par
ties, polled less than 5000.
Indications are that with the excep-
ton Of possibly of six OF twenty-one
assemblymen in Brooklyn and none of
the thirty-fve in New York, all the
Tammany candidates IRE elected. IN
Queens four nssemblymen arc demo-
Gratis. The Citizens union elected two
assemblymen in New York county.
The present representation in the as
sembly from counties in Greater New
York is: New York county, 90 demo-
Gratis and - republicans; Kings conn
ty, Z democrats and IA republicans:
Queens county, 2 democrats and 4 re-
publicans; Richmond county, ] repnb-
lean.

Republicans win in Iowa.

Des Moines, Nov. 4.-The returns by
counties are nearly.all in now. Chair
man Mcmillan of the republican state
committee, has complete returns from
"a counties. and has estimated returns
from the five remaining counties. by
this mean he has figured that tile p.u-
rality for Shaw, republican. is about
31,7s2o. He thinks these figures will
vary but little as the corrected returns
for the five estimated counties come
in. The plurality may be set down at
about $4,000, and below Sc, 900.
Chairman Walsh of the democratic
committee, las given out no figures
He thinks that errors in the returns
may reduce the plurality for Shaw to
20, 900.
The republican plurality last year
vas 65,522. According to the republic
,an estimate it is therefore just nhuot
.ut in two. Two years ago it was So
900 for Drake for governor. Then the
Dopulists had n separate ticket. If the
ropulist vote be subtracted the repGb-
Leans would have q larger plurality
this year than two years ago. The leg
islature is safely republican.
The senate has fifty members, OF
which th~irty-eight are republicans and
Twelve populists and democrats. The
house has 100 members, of which the
republicans have elected s%iXty-onc and
the populists and democrats thirty
nine. These figures are subject to,
slight variations probably to the adj
,antagc Of The democrats, but they are
essentially safe. The republicans lost
:our members in the senate and wen
teen in tn house compared with the
last legislature, which was overwhelm-
lngly republican,.
Among the defeated republicans are
Senator II. j.. Waterman of Ottumwa.
chairman of the ways and means com
'%nittee, and Representative Temple, of
Osceola, who became identified with
the measure known MS the Tempe
amendment, directed against the Chi
rago. burlington and Quincy railroad
voluntary relief department, or
against the feature which exempted
the company from liability at law un-
less the cmployc injured elected to
take the insurance.

vERMlLLloN BUSINESS is coon
In Everything but Building Bette,
Than for Three Years.

Nermillion. Nov. 9.-Durirg tl,e past,
week Il careful review OF the pas,
years business in this city and county
has been made by The Tribune's cor
respondent in this city. In every line
of trade except building Improvement:
has business been far ahead of any fo1
the past three years. last year in this
city, where improvements reached
over $4,000, this year will not aggrc.'
gate $4,000. Outside of the city, how,
ever, this line of trade has held its
own, even surprising that of last year.
The corn crop is very large and thou
sands of feet of lumber are being sold
every day for cribs. In the general
merchandise stores proprietors are all
satisfied and say trade is fur larger
than had been anticipated by them.
This fact is clearly evidenced by the
number Of clerks in the different
stores. Where there We're two a year
ago there are low four and five. Fam
lilies heretofore destitute will this win
ter be able to live comfortably. A
large addition has lately been added
to the court house, which was former.
ly too small to give each county officer
m Office therein. The county has also
been under a heavy expense in the
building of bridges, which were near
~ all carried away by the recent high
water, each II replaced being of
iron. Notwithstanding all this Il large
surplus still remains in The county
treasury.
The sale of Clay connty's tax list
has been in progress the past week
and a ready sale has been found for
each description.

Columbus, o., Nov. 3.--Thc democrat-
lie state headquarters kept open all
night with a force of clerks at work on
the returns. At 4.3O this morning Chair
man McConville claimed the election of
a majority of the legislature and would
not concede the election of the repuh-
lican state ticket. Others at the demo-
cratic state Headquarters said the re-
publican plurality fol, Bushnell for gov
ernor would not exceed 5000. The dem
ocratic state committee claims two ont
Of the twelve members OF the legisla-
ture from Cuyahoga county, and this
alone would wipe out the majority Of
two claimed by the republicans on joint
ballot. They are watching the count in
all close counties and districts and claim
the official count will show n democratic
majority OF nine in the Legislature. The
democrats claim all six republicans on
the fusion ticket at Cincinnati will vote
for Mclean for senator. -
Last night both the republican and
democratic committees telegraphed all
their county chairmen to bsware Of
frauds. State headquarters will be kept
open until the official counts are madu

CONTRACT MUST BE MUTUAL
The Arkansas Supreme Court De.
cides Right TO Rescind Com
tract Can't Re One Sided.

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 10.--Thc SUI
preme court Of Arkansas Saturday
handed down Adhesion which is of the
greatest interest TO the public in gen
eral. as well as To the brotherhood Of
Locomotive Engineers in particular.
II is well known that the locomotive
engineers are all employed under u
contract by which the seniority Of SER
vice gives priority Of right TO employ
ment, SO that when slackncss of bust
ness demands hat one or more engi-
neers shall lie discharged the Inst en-
gineer employed shall be the first dis
missed.
One of the senior engineers having
beer discharged he brought suit on the
ground that he was discharged with
out cause and in violation of his con
tract of employment. twas conceded
that his contract gave him the right to
quit at pleasure, and the court denied
his right to recover on the ground that
no contract ear. be valid that gives
only II party theretotl,e right to ter
inmate it.
The court holds that the right to re-
scind or terminate a contract must 1M
mutual. The decision is far reaching,
affecting as it does organized labor OF
all classes working under contract
agreements.

5ccived hi this city that Secretary Of
War Alger will visit Fort Meade about
the 18th of this month for the purpose
Of investigating the question Of ahan-
doning the fort. The matter has been
thoroughly considered by General
Miles and it is now generally under
stood that he is in favor and has rec
commended the abandonment of the
fort on the grounds that it is not need

pensc to the government. The fort
is one of the best in the northwest and

supplied from Sturgis. hut in an un-
satisfactory manner. a general united
effort will be made by the citizens of
the Hills TO bring things to bear on the
secretary when he comes that he may

Chicago, Nov. ia special to the
fimes-Hernld from Mari nshurgs. w.
Va. says:
Jndge Jackson handed down Il deer
sion which holds that transfer without
trial cannot l5c made Ims"r the ciNil
service Law because IL is equivalent to
removal. Judge Jackson insists that
the appointment of II man to n federal
position under the civil service law
gives him q right in equity 10 the place
which he is not forced to surrender
save for cause.
Judge Jackson remarks in his docu-
nlent that the leaving OF discretionary
power in the hands OF the heads of dr.
nartmcnts makes the civil service a
dead letter. He rules thar there is no
doubt The civil service law is entirely
constitutional.
His second finding Il that congress
has never delegated to the president
and the commission Legislative power.
His third point declares that the in
ternal ven service had been placed
under the merit code and he also holds
that any attempt 10 change the posi-
lion and rank of officers in civil sery-
ice departments is Il violation of the
law.
His final holding is tl,at n court of
equity has II right to sit in such case
and has the jurisdiction to restrain the
appointing power from removing the
officers from their positions. if sue,
removals are shown To be in violation
of the civil service act. lie therefore
ordered that the men who had been
shifted from n good salnried place to
