New York City.-After one Of the
most remarkable campaigns ever
known in New York, the Democracy
was swept back into power. and in
spite of the fact that nearly every
newspaper and practically every minis
ter Of religion was against him, George
B. Mcclellan, son Of the Civil War
General, was elected third Mayor Of
Greater New York, defeating Mayor
Seth Low by plurality Of 63,617
votes. All the Tammany city candi-
dates were elected by about the same
majority. In four Of the five boroughs
Democrats were elected as Borough
Presidents. George Cromwell, Of
Richmond, will be the only Republican
in the new Board Of Estimate and APP
portionment, which controls the city
budget and is the arbiter Of all e1pen-
ditures for public improvements.
The vote shows tremendous change
of public sentiment since Mayor Lows
election two years ago, when he won
by 1852. At that time he carried all
the boroughs but Queens. his plurality
in Manhattan and the Bronx being
1868; in Brooklyn. 25,767, and in Rich
mond, 763. In Queens, Shepard (Dem-
ocrat) had plurality Of SCI. At this
election Mcclellan carried Manhattan
and the Bronx by 56,S29; Brooklyn by
1903, and Queens by 519S. q gain of
more than 1000. This makes total net
gain for Mcclellan of about 100000,
Us compared with Shepard's vote of
two years ago. Low carried only one
-Richmond-by 21S votes.
To the astonishment of all political
forecasters, Brooklyn. the stronghold
Of the Fusionists, was carried for Nc
Clellan by plurality of approximately
1908. This means the political retire
ment of the aged Hugh Mclaughlin,
Democratic leader in Brooklyn, who
fought the Tammany ticket. Mcclellan
carried every borough with the excep-
ton Of Richmond, which gives small
Low majority.
Another surprise was the light vote
given to William s. Devery, former
Chief of Police, who ran as an indie
pendent candidate for Mayor, and who
boasted that his election was "a sure
thing" His total vote in Greater New
York is 1886. This is smaller vote
than was given to the Socialist Labor
candidate, and but little more than the
average Prohibition vote.
Edward M. Grout was elected Con.
troller and Charles Y. Fornes, Presi.
dent Of the Board Of Aldermen. These
two men were originally on the Fusion
ticket and were endorsed by Tammany.
whereupon the Fusionists took their
names from the Low ballots and nom
mated other candidates. 1t was the
nomination Of Grout and Fornes by
Tammany that caused Hugh McLaugh'
lin, the veteran leader Of the Kings
County Democracy, to bolt.
The vote was enormous. almost up
to the registration, which was G2S,S07,
and was probably the largest vote ever
cast in the greater city. though nearly
10000 who registered stayed at home.
The total vote cast was 569, 9,13O.

was submitted to the voters providing
