HEARST SWEPT BROOKLYN.


Bird s. Co,er was elected borough
president of brooklyn on the municipal
ownership ticket and Hearst carried
tnat borough by q plurality OF 15.s2S.
Thc returns up to II o'clock indicated
that McClcllan's pluralities in Manhattan
and the Bronx and Richmond would

ties in Brooklyn and Queens borough.
Mr.. Hearst's large vote shows that the
Municipal Ownership League must bc
reckoned with as factor in the city's
politics. Colers election as president OF
the borough of Brooklyn gives tn,

estimate that this board will direct the
outlay of $500 100000 during the mex,
