LAST TUESDAYS ELECTION
Democrats Get Maryland, Democratic
Mayor for New York.

Baltimore, Nov. 4--This morning
returns from two hundred and fifty
four precincts out of three hundred
and eight in Baltimore City have been
counted and they show majority of
1912 for Winfield, the democratic can
didate for governor. 1t is quite GER
tain that the returns from the re-
manning precincts will increase this
lead. Complete returns have not
been received from this county on
from any county in the state, but
enough is known to warrant the state
ment that Winfield is elected by seven
thousand majority. The democrats
have elected substantial majority of
the legislature, insuring a democratic
successor to United States Senator
McComas, republican. The democrats
won every office in Baltimore. The
unprecedented delay in counting the
ballots is on account of the long tick
ct, which is one of the longest ever
voted in this state.
REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN
OHIO.
| Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 4.--More
complete returns received this morn
ing indicate that the plurality of
Herick, republican candidate for gov
ernor, over johnson, the democratic
candidate, will exceed over one hun
dred and twenty-five thousand ma
Jorlty, but the rest of the republican
ticket did not win by as large plur-
ality. The republican majority op
joint ballot in the legislature for
the reelection of Senator Hanna is
now placed at 80 out of total men,
bership of 143, almost three times as
many as two years ago. Chairman
Dick said this morning: Hanna IS
plurality did it," Today efforts are
being made to ascertain if Johnson
carried one-fourth Of the counties, or
% cut of 88. Ohio never exceeded the
one hundred thousand mark but twice
before, once during the civil war
when Brough was elected governor
on the republican ticket, when he
won by 101 ,009, and in the panic of
1896, when the democrats did not
vote and the republicans carried the
state by 1907.
BECKHAM AHEAD.
Louisville, KY, Nov. 4.-Returns
received from eighty three counties
this morning, number of which are
incomplete, give Beckham, democrat,
for governor, majority of 26, 500.
The figures do not indicate the real
majority, for the reason that most OF
the thiIty-six remaining to be heard
from are normally republican, and
each give a majority of 800 or more.
Many of the other counties are in re.
mote sections in the mountains, and
it will be two or three days before
complete returns are received from
these.
THE SAME THING.
Boston, Nov. 4. The republicans
have carried the state by about the
same majority that they did in the
last election.
A CLEAN SWEEP.
New York, Nov. An the elec-
tion yesterday Tammany made clean
sweep of the offices. The plurality of
Mcclellan, democrat, and the rest OF
the ticket will be in the neighborhood
of 5000.
| GARVIN WINS.
Providence, R. l., Nov. 4.-The
democrats elected Governor Garvin
yesterday by a reduced plurality. The
other state officers are republican. The
leading cities sent democratic members
to the legislature and it is believed
that the vote on joint ballot in the
legislature will be close. y
SAME OLD STORY.
Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. ii he
latest estimates from the country dis
tricts indicate that the republicans
have carried the state for their ticket
by majorities ranging from two hun
dred and twenty five to two hundred
and thirty thousand.
UNION LABOR WINS.
San Francisco, Nov. 4.--Schmitz,
the union labor candidate for mayor,
was elected. The republicans are in
the minority in almost every point OF
of the contest, the democrats and un.
ion labor candidates capturing every
Office.
REPUBLICANS WIN.
Lincoln, Neb, Nov. 4. Barnes, re
publican, is probably elected over
Sullivan, the democrat, for supreme
court judge. The vote in the state
was very light.
