New York, Nov. 7.--Comp!cte un-
official returns from every district of
Greater New York give Seth Low,
fusion candidate for mayor, 2e4,992
and Edward NJ. Shepard, democratic
candidate, 265,12s, making Lows
plurality 29,s64.
Van Wyck Defeated.
In addition to the canvass for
mayor, public interest largely CEN
tered in the nomination by the fu-
sionists' of William Travers Jerome
for district attorney, and Mayor
Robert A. Van Wyck, by the demo-
Gratis, for justice of the supreme
court, were voted for only in the ter
ritory contained in New York county.
Returns received up to II p M. indi-
cate that Jerome had been elected
by comfortable plurality, and that
Mayor Van Wyck had been defeated,
the latter running behind his ticket
from $4,000 to 10000.
With the election of Charles V.
Fornes as president of the board of
aldermen and Edward NJ. Grout as
comptroller the fusionist triumph in
Greater New York appears nearly
complete.
The Legislature.
Reports received from the various
sections of New York state show that
the republicans will retain control of
the lower house of the state legisla-
ture, the number of republican and
democratic assemblymen not differ
ing materially from the figures of
preceding years.
Croker Not to Retire.
Richard Croker denied Wednesday
that he had given up the leadership
of Tammany Hall or that he would
do so. Mr.. Croker said:
The report that ! am to quit politics is
absolutely false. ard it is not true that
am to sail for Europe atonce. I am in good
health and shall stay right here for some
time to come"
Des Moines, Ia, Nov. 7.-Returns
from the county auditors of Iowa in
I;o,fo {bo% 4bo ultimate oAo;o1 ro<o
will give A. B. Cummins, the republic
an governor-elect, something like 81,
900 plurality. Four-ffths of the coun-
ties have been heard from, and a con-
sentative estimate of the remainder
indicates this result as quite certain.
Unofficial returns from every county
in the state give Cummins 234,492;
Phillips, 145,o64; Cummins' plurality,
so,42s. The returns on legislators are
not complete, but the republicans
have surely made good gains and in
creased their already large majority
by eight or ten. Returns from 46
counties on the prohibition vote give
Coates, their candidate for governor,
$500 votes, a net gain of 4,6s5, indi-
eating a total prohibition vote of IT,
74s.
Columbus, O., Nov. 7. - Late
night Chairman Dick,
of the republican state commit
tee, had the returns from Sc
in Ohio, with only two
and the two missing counties
were estimated from the newspaper
reports with the following results:
Sixty-two counties have republican
pluralities aggregating 9o,s4o. Tween
ty-six counties have democratic plu-
raiities aggregating 20, 17o, making the
plurality of Nash over Kilbourne for
governor, 67,661, and approximat tins
$4,000 plurality for other candidates
on the republican state ticket.
The republicans elected 6s represent
atives and the democrats AZ. The
state senate stands Fl republicans and
10 democrats. The republican ma ior-
ity on joint ballot for United States
senator is 35. The official count will
not change these figures on the .po-
lltlcal complexion of the Legislature,
but the republicans say they expect
the official count slightly to increase
their plurality on the state ticket.
Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia, Nov. 7.-Practically
complete returns from the state give
Harris (rep) for state treasurer &c.
$50 plurality and Potter (rep.) for
supreme court judge 1899 plurality
The official totals from the few coun-
ties in which the vote is incomplete
will not materially alter the forego-
ing pluralities.
Maryland.
Baltimore, Nd, Nov. 7.-Returns
received in this city up to midnight
and including every county in the
state, partly official and partly esti-
indicate a result in the legis-
lative contest which is almost with
out parallel in Maryland. The most
careful estimates and calculations
give the democrats 46 delegates and
seven newly-elected senator's, which
combined with the ten who hold over
in the senate assures the friends of
Mr.. German total of GO on Joint
ballot. The republicans, it appears,
have elected 40 delegates and six SEN
ators, which, added to their three
hold over senator's, gives them a to-
tai of IS on joint ballot. These fig
ures indicate that the republicans
will be able to organize the house of
delegates.
Rhode Island.
Providence, r. l., Nov. 7.-Complete
returns from the 139 districts in the
state give Gregory (rep.) for gov
ernor 26,242, Garvin (dem.) 1883.
