NEW YORK GOES REPUBLICAN,.
Rooscvelt's Plurality About 10000
Brooklyn stood by Van Wyck.

New York Nov. Sat II O'Clock the in
dicat!ons are that Theodore Roosevelt,
the republican nominee. had carried New
York State by a plurality over Augustus
Van Wyck of about 2o.e1. The total re-
publican vote when received will probably
show falling of as compared with that
for Gov. Black in 1896 of about II per cent.
in the municipality Of New York the old
time democratic maporty was approx
mated Van Wyck's vote being about $1,000
greater than that of the republican cam
ddate's. This latter result was helped in
some measure by the result in the bor-
uugh of Brooklyn Ikings county, which
in 1896 gave Black, yep, "A plurality of 2S,-
GS2 but to-day gave a democratic plurality
OF about 1880 Brooklyn is the home Of
Judge Van Wyck, but this fact does not
wholly explain the practical reversal of
pluTalities, which 1t is possible Is attribu-
table to the lu5ewarmness of the friends
of Jacob Worth, who was depOSed from
the chairmanship of the county commit
tee as consequence of his OPPOSITION to
the plans Of Senator Platt in the mayor
atty contest last year. The returns are
incomplete and in some cases are missing
altogether. The indications being compu-
tations upon the figures at hand, point to
a republican plurality in the counties
above the Harlem of about 100000 to on
set which the democrats can produce only
81 600 plurality of Greater New York. The
soldier vote will be counted shortly but 1t
Is not likely that this will materially al
ter the result. RoOsevelts probable ma
jority will he increased.
The figures on congressman are not ac-
cessible at this hour but there are ndica-
tons that the democrats have some dis
tricts in New York The majority of Con-
Ercssman Quigg in the l4th district was
reduced by Chanler but he is probably
returned. Congressman Sulzer, democrat

senators and assCmblymen. The republi-
cans had in the last Legislature II major
ity Of % on joint ballot and the leaders OF
the party profess confidence that there
will be no material diminution Of that ma
jority. A republican legislature will mean
the election of A republican to the United
States Senate in place of Senator Murphy.
Every condition was favorable to the
polling of a full vote in all parts OF the
State In this city there was no fullilment
of the predictions of trouble at the polls.
The State deputies, authorized by act of
the last Legislature, We're most in evil
dence In the east side districts, where the
cheap lodging houses are located. The nu-
merous arrests made was below rather
than beyond the usual record of n general
election and in many cases the occasion
was found to be in the carelessncss of
registration clerks Fights at the polls
were few and easily quellcd There was
no friction between the deputies and po-
lice.
on the streets down town there was the
usual election night noise. Returns were
displayed III front of the newspaper Of
fees and in numerous public places. Dem
ocrats good naturedly accepted the fact
OF the defeat of the State ticket which
was apparent from the returns displayed

pensation they could in the result In the
city.
