Buffalo, Nov. S.-Returns from the
city show the election of j. N. Adam,
democrat, for mayor by S,9S1 majority.
Syracuse, Nov. S.-The republicans
carried this city by nearly 5000 for
Mayor Alan C. Forbes. This is the
record majority of this city.
| Albany, Nov. S.-The republicans
carried Albany county and city by
large majorities. Mayor Charles H.
H. Gaus was elected for a third term
by 5000 majority.
Philadelphia, Nov. S.-City Party
Chairman Edmonds last night sent the
| following telegram to President Roose-
welt:
philadelphia has risen to its oppor-
tunity and stands redeemed. The
principle of honesty in government so
effectively espoused by you has won
an overwhelming triumph. Our ma
jority approximates 10000"
Incomplete returns from various
parts of the state indicate the election
of Berry (democraD for state treas
urer by large plurality. Republican
strongholds are showing unexpected
gains for Berry. Lancaster county,
normally republican by 10000, is in
doubt. Dauphin county, in which Har-
risburg is located, another republican
stronghold, gives Berry 1900 plurality.
Other republican counties show the
same enormous republican losses.
Baltimore, Nov. S.-The election in
Maryland yesterday was for state
| .,1o ~
officers, and in Baltimore for a judge
of the supreme court, sheriff, city
clerk and surveyor. The issue which
engrossed popular attention was
proposed constitutional amendment,
the avowed purpose of which was to
disfranchise negro voters, but which
aroused widespread opposition among
many democrats and foreign voters in
both parties. Owing to the extreme
length of the ballot the count has been
slow and at late hour last night the
votes in some of the city precincts and
remote county districts had not been
counted.
The returns so far received, how
ever, make certain the defeat of the
proposed constitutional amendment by
decisive majority of 10000 or more
and very probable the election of Nc
Cullough, republican, state comptrol-
Ter, over Atkinson, democrat, and the
election of republicans in three out of
four of the city legislative districts.
The republican candidates for sheriff,
city court clerk and city surveyor in
Baltimore are also elected. Chief
Judge Harlan, democrat, is reelected
by 10000 majority.
Boston, Nov. S.-Lieut. Gov. Curtis
Guild, jr., of Boston, the republican
candidate, was elected governor of
Massachusetts in the state election
yesterday by plurality of 29,435 over
Gen. Charles w. Bartlett, of Boston,
the democratic candidate. For the
second place on the ticket, for which
there was an unusually warm contest,
Eben S. Draper, of Hopedale, the re-
publican candidate, won over Henry
NJ. Whitney, of Brookline, his demo-
cratic opponent and the leading advo-
cate for reciprocity, by a plurality of
3,942. The republicans also elected
seven of the eight members of the ex-
ecutive council and the usual large
majority in both branches of the leg
islature.
Richmond, Va, Nov. S.-The indi-
cations are that the democrats have
carried the state, but by very much
smaller majority than usual They
have won all along the line, but the
vote has been much smaller than
usual, though the weather was fair
everywhere. In Richmond, of a total
vote of about 1000 only about $500
were polled. The democratic majority
here will be about $500. The demo-
cratic majority in the state will be
about 10000. The republicans have a
representation in the present legisla-
ture on joint ballot of about 1G. In the
next legislature they apparently will
have about 25.
Louisville, KY, Nov. S.-One hun
dred and forty-two precincts out of
1S4 in the city of Louisville give Paul
G. Barth, democratic nominee for
mayor, 1887, and O'Neil, fusion, 12,-
973. Barth's plurality, 1894. Elections
were held in the state for 100 seats in
the legislature, but returns have thus
far been received from only 33 dis
tricts, including the city of Louisville.
The democrats elected 29 legislators,
the republicans three and one race is
doubtful. This shows a democratic
loss of one legislator compared with
the returns from the same districts
two years ago. The complexion of the
Legislature will be practically un-
changed and the democrats will have
a good working majority with which
to choose a successor to Senator
Blackburn.
Chicago, Nov. 8.-The republicans
made a clean sweep of the election In
Chicago and Cook county, electing all
of their candidates with the exception
of one man. The sole democrat to
reach the promised land was Webb a
candidate for trustee of the sanitary
district. The republicans elected fou1
