New York, Nov. According to
incomplete returns from all over the
state, Charles E. Hughes, the Repub-
llcan candidate, has been elected gcv-
ernor of New York over William Ran
dolph Hearst by approximately a
plurality of $4,000.
Outside of Greater New York, with
160 election districts missing, Hughes
had plurality of about $4,000 In
Greater New York, with SO election
districts missing, Hearst had a plu-
rality of 1906.
AS was generally expected, Mr..
Hearst showed his greatest strength
in the cities through the state and
took out OF the Republican column a
number of the more important munic-
Qualities which heretofore have been
Republican. Among the cities which
gave Hearst a plurality were Buffalo,
Rochester, Utica, Troy, Elmira, Rome,
Little Falls and jamestown. All of
these. except Rome and Utica, were
Republican two years ago. MrHughes
did not gain single city. The Re-
publican ticket was successful but
sustained serious losses in Syracuse
Gloversville, Amsterdam. Ithaca, Sche.
nectady, Watertown and Plattsburg.
State Senator Thomas F. Grady of
Tammany Hall has been reelected
over Thomas Rock, WHO has been
known il the campaign as Eight.
Hour Rock, and who claimed he had
been "tricked" by the independence
league.
There were many odd turns to the
balloting. Here in New York, it was
Richmond borough that defeated Mr..
Hearst for mayor year ago and it
was BROOKLYN with a big plurality,
which helped him to make the race
SO close. Mr.. Hearst barely carried
Brooklyn yesterday, but ran ahead in
Richmcnd. In Schenectady, one of the
best organized labor cities in the Unit
ed States, it was expected Mr.. Hearst
would have a substantial plurality.
Tae Republican ticket was successful
by 314 votes, as against a Higgins
plurality of 1,621 two years ago.
Election Night Groves.
New York turned out its myriads
of people last night for the usual cleo
ton night reyel All the pent-up en-
thusiasln OF an unprecedented state
campaign was vented in frenzy OF
noise. Broadway from Fcrty-second
to Fourteenth street ana along Park
Row, from the Brooklyn bridge to the
end OF newspaper row." was one
mass OF shouting, showing people, OF
noise, there was every variety it was
possible to create with the use of a
good pair of lungs and tin horn, a
COW bell CT cher devices. 1t was a
boisterous crowd, but good natured.
Beginning at Times square, at Forty
second street, Broadway was lmpassa.
BILE to everything except pedestrians
as far down town as Twenty-third
street, The greatest brushes were
around Times square, Herald Madison
square and Park Row. At these
places, as well as several other points,
bulletins were flashed upon screens
and everybody cheered impartially.
Around Herald square the jam was
terrific. Street cars could not get
through and only by getting in the
currents that surged up and down
Broadway was it possible for pedes.
trian to make progress.
