! New York Nov. 1.-The latest
corrected re lrns show that c. E.
Hughes was elected governor by
plurality of 6O,2S4 over w. r.
Hearst yesterday. Hearst ran be-
hind his ticket in Greater New
York and in, many upstate coun.
ties. At nom today heindications
were that 81 fyvesant Chanler, the
democratic sominee for lieutenant
governor, an1 the rest of the demo.
cratic ticket, may have been elected.
Chanler has plurality in Greater
New York o. 1876 600, which breaks
all records Ia this city for lieuten-
ant governor. Other democratic
nominees ran ahead of Chanler in
this city. Late<sincoming returns
from up state en- the remainder of
Ithe,ticket show fluctuations.
On the face of the present returns
Hughes came down to Harlem river
with lead over Hearst of little
more than 100000. While this was
sufficient to give him lead of con.
siderably more than $4,000 over
Hearst, Hughes associates have to
meet far greater plurality rolled
up in New York City by the remain
der of the democratic state ticket.
Figures at hand show that John
S. Whalen. democratic candidate
for secretary of state, may come
through winner by the closest
margin.
Hearst apparently carried only
two counties in the State outside
Greater New York. These were
Chemung and Schoharie.
Kings county, of which Patrick
II. McC4rren is Democratic leader,
last year gave Hearst for mayor a
large plurality, but in the vote for
governor, McCarren exerted all his
forces to return Hughes plurality
in his county.
While Hearst succeeded in carry.
ing Kings county by plurality of
1863, the returns of the remainder
of the state ticket show that his
trouble with McCarren cost him
bear. The plurality in the county
of the democratic candidates who
were not affected by McCarren's or
der, exceeded that of the head of
the ticket by more than 10000.
Had Hearst received these votes 1t
would have cut Hughes lead in the
state practically in half.
Denver, Col. Nov. 7.-Chief Jus.
tice Gaboelt was reelected with the
other republicans, though greatly
scratched. Simon Guggenheim will
| probably succeed T.. M. Patterson
in the United States senate. Dem
ocrats are crying fraud and proba'
bly, an investigation will follow.
Republicans claim 10000 plurali
ty 90 the entire ticket.
The most surprisitg feature Of the
election is the comparatively small
vote returned for Lindsey and Hay

socialist candidates for governor
| From all sources it was predicted
