NEW YORK.

New York, Nov. 5.-The city Of
Greater New York, which last year
elected a fusionist to the mayoralty,
returned to the democracy yesterday
and rolled up one of it's old time ma
jorities for that party. Locally, the
candidates voted for were three JUS
tices of the supreme court, 10 mem
bers of the national house of repre-
sentatives, q state senators and 62
state assemblymen. In Kings county
a sheriff and in Queens a district at
torney were elected. Coler's plurality
for governor in the city was above
10000.
From the start, the returns showed
that Edward Il. Amend, Vernon NJ.
Davis and Edward f. Mccall. the Tam
many democratic candidates. were
elected to the supreme court bench
by pluralities ranging from 10000 to
$4,000. Their opponents were William
A. Keener, Alfred Steckler and Ernest
Hall, who we're appointed to the SUI
preme court by Gov. Odell to fill va
cancies. Keener and Steclller were
nominated by both the republicans
and the Greater New \ ork democracy
and Hall by the republicans. The
Greater New York democracy placed
John Dewitt Warner in nomination
for the Office against Mr.. Hall and
the Tammany candidates. The vote
cast showed remarkable change of
feeling from last year, when Mayor
Low carried New York county by
about 5000
The reversal of the vote in Kings
7
year Low carried the county by more
than $4,000, while the unofficial re-
turns last night gave Coler 26,546
plurality and Indicate that William E.
Melody, democrat, for sheriff, had
won from Adolph l.. Kline, republican,
by about the same fgnres.
Queens borough, the only one of the
five boroughs in the Greater City that
was carried by Shepard, for mayor
last year, gave an estimated plural
ity for Coler of $500. This was about
1900 more than had Deen estimated
by the party leaders.
Oyster Bay, /. l., Nov. 5.-The town
of Oyster Bay, President Roosevelt's
township, complete, gives Odell 1926
and Coler 1851. In 1900 the town gave
Odell 2,O41 and Stanchfield 1929.
President Roosevelt's own district,
the Fifth, gives plurality of 81 for
the democratic state ticket.
New York, Nov. 6.-Ohicial figures
on the vote for governor vary but
little from the unofficial reports. Ac-
cording to returns made to the oili-
cials at Albany by the several coun.
ly clerks, the plurality for Odell, rep.
is 2,SS7. Only three counties above
the Bronx were carried by the demo.
cratic nominee, the aggregate plu.
rality for Coler in these counties be.
ing 1,O11. This and the Greater New
York plurality of 122,O74 given tc
Coler was met and overcome by ar
upstate republican plurality of 1885,,
972, the difference being a net plural
ity of 12SS7 against lll,126 plurality
for Odell in 1900.
The state legislature is controlled
by the republicans by reduced ma
jority, but one so large as to admit
of no doubt of the return of Mr.
Platt to the United States senate.
The New York delegation in the
lower house of congress will number
81, instead of "a as in the present
congress. 1t will contain 20 republ
cans and II democrats, whereas the
present delegation stood % republi
cans and - democrats. All of the
more noted members of the delega
tion have been returned, including
Serene Z. Payne, chairman of tn,
ways and means committee.
