In Greater New York all the Democrat

After the gubcrnatOrial contest. rs
much interest was taken in the State
Legislature as in anything else. The
close friendship known to exist between
Mr.. Croker and Senator Murphy caused
Il general belief that the Tammany lead
er would do all in his power to secure the
Legislature in order that Mr.. Murphy
might retain his seat in the Senate and
the result shows he did his best. Not
w~ithstanding this, however. the State
Senate will be Republican by / and the
Assembly by %.
