 Mayor John F. Studley was re-elect- ed mayor of this city yesterday, which makes the third consecutive time, and not only was he reelected, but he car- ried every ward in New Haven, an hon or which has never before been given to any man or ticket in the history of of this city. Mayor Studley's plurality over the democratic candidate, William s. Pardee, was 2,9sS In 1903 Mayor Studley's plurality over Thomas I. Kin ney was 1,776 and in 1901 Mayor Stud ley defeated ex-Mayor Driscoll by 999 votes. Never in the history of the re-. publican party has it carried the third and Seventh wards for it's candidate for mayor until yesterday, when they both gave Mayor Studley a handsome plural ity.
 Another surprising feature of the elec- ton yesterday is the fact that Freder- ick H. Brethauer, democratic candidate or reelection for town clerk, lost ev- cry ward in the city, and his opponent Frederick F. Whitaker won with plu- rality. of Z, ,4SO votes. MT. Brethauer has been connected with the town clerks office for over tWenty-seven years. He was appointed assistant town clerk in 1874 and served for one year, returning to the same office in 1878. In 1888 he was elected town clerk and has been reelected every election since that time.
 Jonathan W. Rowe denl., who has been the controller for a number of years, was reelected yesterday by a. plurality of 1,751 over Henry Herz, rep. MT. Rowe made the best showing on his ticket and led it all over the city.
 Henry Fresenius, dem., who has been city treasurer for a number of years, was defeated by s. Fred Strong, rep, by a pluality of 492 votes.
 Henry E. Norris, dem., who has been city clerk since 1899 and who defeated Edward A. Street, rep, for the position, was this time in turn defeated by MT. Street, who was given a plurality of 123 votes.
 Francis G. Anthony, den. who has been tax collector for a number of years. was reelected by a plurality vote of 1,241. His opponent was W. E. Weld, rep. ...*r :.
 City Sheriff Hunie, den., was defeat ed by J. T. Kollerstrom, rep, for that position. MT. Hunie defeated MT. Kol- lerstrom two years ago. MT. Koller- stronl's plurality is 402. :
 James J. Carr, dem, was reelected registrar of vital statistics by a plural ity vote of TOT. His opponent was Wal do H. Minor, rep. E
 Francis s. Hamilton, rep, and Fran cis w. Foley, dem., were both re-elect- ed as registrars of voters. #
 The republicans also elected all four of their candidates for aldermen-at- large; all three candidates for con- stables; all three candidates for select men, and all three candidates for grand jurors. In addition to this they elected ward aldermen in the Second, Eighth, Tenth and Fourteenth wards. This, in addition to the four republican alder men-at-large elected will make the next board of aldermen republican by three votes. The new board of alder men will be as follows: Republicans: Townshend, Curtiss. Hamilton, Loos, Hotchkiss, Woodford Smith, Brown, Homan, Johnson, McKerness and Ma tE1anson. Total, 12 Democratic-Court- ney, Burk, Collins, Devine, Langley, compton, Allen, Healey, and Maxwell. Total, 9.
 The, vote of yesterday was not as large as it was expected it would be, 2fhe total vote for all the five candidates for mayor being only 1S,2SS. Elizur L. Sperry's total vote, non-partisan mu- nicipal, was only 1870. This was con- siderable of a. surprise as it was esti- mated that it would be much larger. Never in local election has there been a larger number of split votes than yesterday and for this reason the counting was most difficult and tire- some. The so-called west pocket vote" was everywhere in evidence.
 The election was full of surprises, and among the many noticed was the fact that in the city election two years ago the total vote of the Eighth ward was 1892, and this was exactly the same number boiled yesterday. An idea of the amount of pasting which was done can be gained from the First ward. In this ward the total republican vote was 4O7, and the total democratic vote 207. The straight republican votes were only 14s, and the straight democratic votes only IF. This leaves 264 splits in the republican votes, and 90 splits ill the democratic vote
 The voting machines are reported as having Woiked splendidly in the Fifth
