New York, Nov. 6.-According to in
complete returns from all over the
state, received up to 1890 p. m. Charles
Il. Hughes, the Republican candidate.
has been elected governor of New York
state over William Randolph Hearst
the nominee of the Democratic party
and the Independence League. by APP
proXimately a plurality of 100000 Two
years ago Governor Higgins was elect
ed on the Republican ticket by SO,56O.
There was some doubt expressed to-
night as to the fate of the Democratic
and independence League tickets out
side of Mr.. Hearst, several of the New
York newspapers which have been sup
porting Mr.. Hughes declaring that
there was a chance for the subordinate
officers of the Democratic and Indepen-
dence League combination having been
elected.
Upstate Vote.
The latest figures seem to Indicate
that Mr.. Hughes plurality above the
Bronx will exceed $4,000.
To offset this Mr.. HearSts plurality
in Greater New York will. probably be
from $4,000 to $4,000.
In Brooklyn, where Senator Patrick
H. McCarren made a bitter fight
against Mr.. Hearst, the latter carried
the borough by a small plurality, prob
ably 1900.
At one time it seemed that Hughes
had been successful in Brooklyn. but
the late returns were all strongly i'm
favor of the Democratic candidate. Mr..
Hearst has been given a majority of
nearly 10000 in Manhattan and the
Bronx. Queens county. which includes
Long Island City, has gone for Hearst
by from 5000 to 5000. and Richmond.
Staten Island. has also given the Dem
ocratic candidate a plurality
Cities Voted for Hearst.
As was generally expected Mr..
Hearst showed his greatest strength
in the cities throughout the state, and
took out of the Republican column q
number of the more important munich
palities which heretofore have been Re
publican. Among the cities which gave
Hearst plurality were Buffalo, Roch-
ester. Utica, Troy Elmira, Rome, Little
Falls and Johnstown.
All Of these except Utica and Rome
were Republican two years ago. Mr..
Hughes did not gain q single CITY. The
Republican ticket was successful. but
sustained serious losses i'm Syracuse.
GloVersvlile, Amsterdam, Ithaca, Wa
tertOWn, Schenectady and PlattSburg
AS result of the scratching and the
voting for the same candidates under
different party embems, the returns
for the subordinate offices on the vari-
Gus tickets are so complicated as not
to be available tonight.
Tammany Gets Judges.
Great interest centered here in New
York in the campaign waged for the
Judiciary ticket named by committee
of lawyers headed by Joseph N. Choate
and former Judge Alton 3. Parker. The !
Tammany and Independence League |
joint ticket has won over the non-par-
tisan candidates by big pluralities
Stale Senator Thomas F. Grady of
Tammany Hall has been reelected over
Thomas Rock. who has been known in
the campaign as "Eight-hour" Rock. |
and who claimed he had been "tricked''
by the Independence League
Throughout the state there has been
notable falling off in the vote of 1904
which was a presidential year. The
Republican ticket showed the greatest
loss in this respect, especially in the
cities.
In claiming the election of Mr. |
Hughes tonight by a large plurality. |
Republican State Chairman Woodruff |
said:
Il knew all along we had lost the |
labor vote. Every possible thing was
done TO recover it, but / think without |
avail
Mr.. Hughes said: q
Il am very much gratified if | am /
elected, as now seems 10 be the case
Whatever my plurality may be, my
feeling is not of citation, but of respon-
sibility.''
Do Not Give up.
Neither Max F. Ihmsen. chairman of |
the Independence League; w. j. Con- |
nors, chairman of the Democratic state
committee nor Mr.. Hearst was willing |
to admit defeat at a late hour tonight |
There were many odd turns to the
balloting, Here i'm New York il was
Richmond borough that defeated Mr.. !
Hearst for mayor a year ago, and il /
was Brooklyn. with a big plurality.
which helped him to make the race So
close Mr. Hearst barely carried Brook |
Ign today. but ran ahead i'm Richmond. |
In Schenectady, one of the best or
