resu ted in such close vote that at
10 o'clock at night the mayoralty OF
greater New York and the district at
torneyship in New York county We're
in doubt. Hearst for mayor had car
ritd Brooklyn by about $4,000 and the
latest returns indicated that McClei
Ian would have plurality in Man
haitian and the Bronx of probably
more than 10000 One hundred and
seventy-six districts were yet to be
heard from in Manhattan and the
Bronx and of course would change
McCleIlan's plurality. Hearst car

Clellan carried Richmond borough,
though the figures were not then com
plete.
Earlier returns Indicated that Os

ney. but latter figures showed gains
for Jerome and threw the result in
doubt.

New York, Nov. S.-Returns to mid
night indicated that George B. McClel-

between 5000 and 1000 plurality over
w. r. Hearst, municipal ownership
and that William T. Jerome, indepen-
dent, was reelected district attorney b.
1000 over James W. Osborne, dem
ocrat
At midnight Hearst declined to ad-
nit this defeat, charged gross frauds
and declared his intention to contest
the election, At that time returns
