 In Government Rule.

NEW YORK, Nov. S.--lncomplete re turns from more than two-t thirds of the counties in the state of New York make it impossible to give definite fig llres on the state ticket otlcr than for governor. Charles E. Hughes, Re3uh l!can candidate for governor. has majority of 52,G00 approximately, but the remainder of tie candidates are in doubt.
 For lieutene..t governor Lewis Stuy- vesant Chsnlai, Democratic-Indepe ence league candidate, has lead in the city of Greater New York of 134.- 94l. Up state NJ. Linn Bruce. Repub- lican candidate for lieutenant govern or, is running slightly ahead of MT. Hughes vo.e. AS Mir. Hughes came down to Greater New York with q lead of approximately 12acco, IL will readi- ly be seen that the vote for second place on the ticket will be very close, and only the complete official count will determine the successful candi- date.
 Despite the defeat of William k. Hearst reports seem to indicate that the rest of the Democratic state ticket is elected by majorities ranging from 8,37G to S,261.
 The returns are not complete in many instances, but the following figures are given as pluralitics for Democratic can dates:
 For lieutenant governor, Chanler, 3,376
 For secretary of state, Whalen, 3,5332.
 For comptroller, Giynn, 6.799.
 For state treasurer, Hauser, 6,1S7.
 For attorney general, Jackson, G,942.
 For state engineer, Skene, s,261.
 Returns are coming in very slow from up state counties, and from these it is impossible to predict the result of the entire count ns to the subordinate places on the two tickets. At Repub- lican state headquarters no definite statement or claim could be had. It was stated that as there were still about twenty counties to be heard from officially nothing would be given out until these have reported.
 Governor Elect Charles F.. Hughes gave out the following statement.
 Tt is victory for sobriety and for decency in the administration of gov ernment But the people will not tol- crate indifference to public wrongs. They desire neither exaggeration nor infammatory appeal on the one hand nor moral or political obtuseness on the othershand IThe election is re buke to demagogical methods. and 1t Is also impressive in its demands for responsible leadership. l shall address myself to the task of squaring the ad- ministration of government with the interest of the people. confident that may rely upon the support of all good citizens. not only those who voted for me, but also those who in the intensity of their desire to end abuses voted for my opponent. To the work of insuring, to the extent of my power. the just ad- ministration of the government of this state shall devote myself unreserved- ly.
 while perfectly wen. am very weary from the labors of the cam paign. and I want few days of per. feet quiet. For this reason I am going to the mountains for a little outdoor life and undsturbed rest. There is nothing of political significance in tho trip. It is simply to get good breath of fresh air. When return I shall close up my business affairs and at once prepare for the important duties to which the people have assigned me"
 Mir. Hughes left for the Adirondacks last night in company with State Chair man Woodruff. whose guest he Is to be at Ramp Kill Kare.
