New York. The latest figures oh.
tainable show that Roosevelts plu-
rality in the state is not far from
21,500. Only ten counties in the state
gave Van Wycl1 pluralities and they
were all localities swayed by Cities as
New York, Kings, Queen and Erie.
The falling off in Roosevelt's plurality
as compared with Blacks in 1896 is
due to a decrease in the Republican
vote up the state of $1,000 and in
Greater New York of GO, OO0 Against
this, Van Wyck gained 10000 above
the Harlem and SO, 900 below it as COM
pared with Porter two years ago. The
result on congressman in this state
seems to have surprised even the Dem
ocrats themselves.
Compared with the election of 1896,
when Black defeated Porter, this
shows Republican loss of from 1907
600 to 1876, 1000. Roosevelt came to the
Harlem river with 100000 plurality,
and Van Wycls only $4,000 in Greater
New York. The vote outside the city
shows that Roosevelt lost 61,000 as
compared with Black. In the country
districts Van Wyck ran about 10000
and in the city about $4,000 ahead OF
Porter, the Democratic head, two years.
ago.
The vote of the state furnished sew
eral surprises. Rochester, the home
of George w. Eldridge, commissioner
of public works, gave Roosevelt only
42O plurality, against 4,196 for Black
in 1894. Rensselaer, county, the home
of Governor Black, gave Van Wyck a
plurality of about 700. Black carried
it by 1880 two years ago. Roosevelt
ran ahead of Blacks figures in Allie
gheny by 800 and in Broome by $500.
Nineteen of their candidates were
elected, the Republicans getting but
fifteen. In the present house the New
York delegation stands twenty-seven
Republicans to six Democrats. In the
Greater New York all the Democratic
candidates were elected.
After the gubernatorial contest as
much interest was taken in the state
legislature as in anything else. The
state senate will be Republican by
four and the assembly by twenty.

st. Paul, Minn.-John Lind silver
Republican, with Democratic and Pop
ulist Endorsement, will have not less
than 10000 plurality in the state over

only fusion candidate to win. The

be chosen by majorities even greater
than that for Lind.
All seven Republican Congressman

Sixth district, has defeated Charles A.
Towne by a close margin, but it may
exceed his plurality of two years ago,
