"a GREAT DEMONSTRATION. I

McC cClellan 10 Elected Mayor by
Seventy Thousand MINORITY
and the Result. is Com
sidered Significant.
After a remarkable campaign in
which there was united against him
nearly all Of the newspapers and
practically every minister of religion
in the city, George b. Mcclellan, son
of the Civil war general, was Tuesday,
3rd instant, elected third mayor or
Greater New York over Seth Low,
Fusionist, the present mayor, by the
large plurality OF 70, 0,OOO.,
Edward M. Gruut was elected CONN
troller and Charles v. Fornes presi-
dent Of the board IF 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. Tt was
the nomination of Grout and Furnes
by Tammany that caused Hugh Nc
Laughlin, the veteran leader of the
Kings county Democracy, to bolt and
declare that he would not support
men who were not Democrats. In
spite Of this detection, however, Nc
Ciellan, Grout and Fornes carried
Kings county. The management Of
their campaign there was taken over
by State Senator Patrick H. McCarren,
when Mclaughlin refused his aid.
NOT IN 1T.
a surprise was the small vote for
VIM. S. Devery, former chief of police,
who ran on an independent ticket,
which was given practically no sup
port. This result shows tremend-
Gus change In public sentiment since
Mayor Lows election two years ago,
when he won by 31,632. At that
time he carried all the boroughs but
Queens, his plurality in Manhattan
and tine Bronx being 5,363 in Brooklyn
25,767, and in Richmond 763 In
Queens, Shepard, Democrat, had a
plurality Of SCI.
Wednesday Mcclellan carried Man
haitian and the Bronx by about S.
900, a gain Of $4,000; Brooklyn by
about 5000, a gain Of $1,000, and
Queens by about 5000 gain of more
than 1900. This makes total net
gain for Mcclellan OF about lO3, 900,
as compared with Shepard's vote of
| two years ago.
| Low carried only one borough
Richmond by about 200 votes
The result was known early and at
8.15 Mayor Low sent telegram Of
congratulation to Col Mcclellan.
LOWS CONGRATULATIONS.
1t was as follows:
- pnnprat tl11ata Won IN yo,,r alao
I tion. II I can be of service TO you
pray command me. Seth Low
The mayor then said: II think
have to say tonight"
Col. Mcclellan, who is at present a
member of congress, made the follow
ing statement:
Il am deeply grateful to my fellow
citizens for their confidence in me. 1
renew the promises which I made be-
fore the election.
II have no bitterness of feeling for
any one.
II shall go at once TO Washington
to prepare for the extraordinary ses-
sion and as soon as the question Of
Cuban reciprocity is disposed OF shall
turn my attention 70 the affairs of
the city.
Il invite the cooperation Of every
citizen, whether be supported Inc or
not and regardless Of his political
/ views in the advancement OF the Guys
| good.
This victory should encourage ana
unite all Democrats for tilc presi'len.
