nors-Mayor johnson Defeated by
Herrick In Ohio.

New York, Nov. AFTER a remark
able campaign, in which there was
united against him nearly all of the
newspapers and practically every min
ister of religion in the city, George
B. Mcclellan, son of the civil war gen.
fral, was Tuesday elected third mayor
Of the Greater New York over Seth
Low, fusionist, the present mayor, by
a plurality of about 10000
Edward M. Grout was elected comp
troller and Charles V. Fornes presi-
dent Of the board of aldermen. These
two men were originally on the fusion
ticket and were endorsed by Tam
many, whereupon the fusionists took
their names from the Low ballots and
nominated other candidates.
Columbus, o., Nov. 4-The Republi-
cans broke their record in Ohio Tues
day in pluralities for governor by
electing My-on T. Herrick, Rep, over
Mayor Tom l.. Johnson, Dem, by con-
siderably over a hundred thousand.
The plurality on joint ballot of over
100 in the legislature for the re-elec-
ton of Senator Hanna more than
doubles any previous record.
Chairman Dick of the Republican
committee said the result was due to
"the remarkable personality of Hanna,
popularity of Herrick, endorsement Of
Roosevelt and the state administra-
tion," and that these conditions
brought about harmony among the Re-
publicans.
Ohio has exceeded 100000 plurality
only twice before.
Boston, Nov. although some
what pushed by the exertions of their
opponents, the Republicans in the
state election reelected Governor
John L. Bates by practically the same
plurality as last year. The rest of the
state ticket was also elected and the
party will have the usual proportion
of two to one in the legislature of 1908.
The weather was fine and the vote re-
markably large for an off year.
In addition to electing their state
ticket and holding the legislature, the
Republicans were also successful in re-
tanning control of the governors coun-
ci;, which will be composed of seven
Republicans and one Democrat.
Louisville, KY, Nov. 4.-The re-elec-
ton of Governor Beckham, the Demo-
cratic candidate, over Colonel Morris
B. Belknap, Republican, by majority
of fully $4,000 seems assured. The Re-
publicans concede the election of Gov
ernor Beckham.
Des Moines, Ia, Nov 4.-Returns re-
ceived up to midnight indicate the re-
election of Governor Cummins by a
plurality Of 10000 and of his associates
on the Republican ticket by substan-
TALLY the same pluralities.
Providence, R. l., Nov. AT mid
night the returns indicate. the re-elec-
ton Of Governor Garvin, Dem, by a
greatly reduced plurality. The vote
is very close, however, and the result
will probably be in doubt until the last
district is heard from.
Baltimore, Nov. AT l o'clock this
morning the returns are meager In
dications, however, point to the cleo.
ton of Edwin Warfeld, DEM, as gov
ernor over Stevenson A. Williams
Rep, and that the legislature, which
will elect United States senator, will
also be Democratic.

WAS AN ACCIDENT.
Defense Says So In Flood Murder
Case,

Grand Rapids, Mich, Nov. 4.-The
defense opened Tuesday in the trial of
Mrs Flood, charged with the murder
Of John London, and as outlined it's
argument will be that the fatal shot
was accidental, the gun going off when
London, who was seated at the table,
drew it toward him.
The first witness. was DR.. Bessey,
whose testimony as a medical expert
was to the effect that in his opinion,
Judging from the nature Of the wound,
the shot could not have been fired
from the pantry by person standing
therein, but was from below.
Charles L. Slade, who served in the
Spanish war, testified that he had
seen 800 or more wounded soldiers,
and from the description of the wound
drew the inference that it was an &C
cidental shot.

Ear thquakes.

These disturbances of earthS re-
pose and man 8 slumbers have been IN.
usually frequent during the past three
months and this adds evidence to my
theory that storms and earthquakes
have the same origin. The ancIents
imagined that these seismic shakes
came from the exercises of a huge
animal whose home was down In the
earth's Plutonian chambers. Then
came the more highly respectable
ideas Of the orthodox scientists who
told US that all the interior OF the
earth is a mass of melted matter, that
we are living on relatively thin crust
of partly cooled earth and that these
earthquakes are caused by the break
ing in or wave like motions of this
crust as it floats on the melted matter
just a little Below US. Strength of
imagination is to be admired and there
fore the huge animal visions of the
apcientS are to be preferred to those Of
our modern scientists. Common sense
says that earthquakes are of the same
nature as thunder which we may con-
siderately call cloutquakes.
