and Kings County.
INTEREST IN MAzET'S CASE

NEW YORK, November S.-The receipt
Of later returns from yesterdays election
in this city and the state shows practically
no change in the figures given out last
night. In New York county the entire reg
ular democratic ticket was elected by plu-
ralities averaging about $1,000. OF the as
sembly districts in New York county the
democrats elected 81 assemblymen and the
republicans "A democratic gain of 4. The
republicans will probably have a majority
of "a in the assembly, republican gain of
10.
In Kings county Brooklyn) the demo-
cratic ticket was elected by pluralities aver
aging $4,000 except that Gray. democrat,
Tor register, was defeated by Howe, repub-
lican, by 18S votes. This was due to in
ternal strife in the party, a number of the
democratic leaders having practically with
he'd support from Gray. In Kings county
the latest figures show an assembly dele
cation made up of II democrats and re-
publicanS, republican gain of 3. In
queens county the democrats elected two
assembymen and the republicans one In
Richmond the assembyman is, as
usual, a democrat
O'Brien Ran Behind Ticket.
One of the surprises in New York county
was that O'Brien, the independent labor
party ledue., VINO was nOnllnd ed 1Cr SneTII
by the republicans, ran behind his ticket
about $500 votes. O'Brien is walking
delegate of the Granite Cutters Union, and
it was expected that many workingmcn
would vote for him who would scratch the
other names on the republican ticket. APP
parently just the reverse happened. Former
Justice Joseph r. DAILY, who was nomina ted
by the republicans for justice of the SUI
preme court, but who was not Endorsed by
the labor party, got more votes than
O'Brien.
Practically all political interest in this
city and even throughout the state is now
centered in the question as to whether or
not there will be contest made by Robert
Mazet.
