SUPPORTED BY 'TAsfMANY.
Tammany seems to have given
Hearst unexpectedly good support. In
the entire city Hearst obtained a plur-
ality approximating that given TO Van
Wyck in 1898 and Herrkck in 1904, in
the neighborhood of $4,000. In the
counties north of the Bronx and on
Long Island Hughes polled a vote
which is between 10000 and $4,000 in ex-
cess of this. Later returns from re-
mote districts are expected to increase
this upstate plurality so that Hughes
plurality over Hearst in the entire State
may reach $4,000.
Erie County, which was a Hearst
stronghold and which had been organ
lied in the interest of the independence
League candidate before any other
county in the State, was carried by
Hughes Onondagas Albany, Jefferson
Oneida and Clinton counties all showed
up strongly Republican. Westchester
gave Hughes a phenomenal plurality
The farmers generally stood by Hughes
and followed the advice of President
Roosevelt.
OF New York CITY little is necessary
to be said. Hearst has probably car
ried every borough. Charles +. Murphy
seems TO have swung the Tammany
workers lHlO line al lH6 last IlAnubC
working upon their fears that if they
did not labor for the entire ticket the
judiciary tickets as well as many can
didates for Congress and Senate would
be defeated.
CANNOT POSE AS MARTYR.
The result is decisive enough TO pre-
vent Hearst posing as martyr with
any degree of success. Up to the end
Of the voting his newspapers and his
- ho
elected by zoe, 000, that he would have
a landslide 1t was landslide in New
York State north of the city line and
Hearst is buried 50 deeply beneath IT
that he will not soon dig himsen out
The returns did not come in as rap
idly as usual There was suspicious
Iateness about the announcement of
the result in some Of the downtown
districts Various reports have been
aAoat for days as to whether Timothy
d. Sullivan would not support Hearst.
For a long time Sullivan and his
friends encouraged the idea that not
a vote they controlled would be given
to the Murphy league nominee. The
Sullivans appear. however, TO have
done their share in an effort TO elect
the man whom they enabled Murphy to
nominate in Buffalo !.
Taranlany has probably elected its
entire judiciary ticket although the re-
turns were late in coming in. The In
dications are that the entire Repub-
lican State ticket has been elected, but
the returns on the Offices other than
that Of Governor are not complete
The Republicans viii continue in
control of the New York Legislature by
a very large majority.
RESULTS IN OTHER STATES.
The results in other States may be
summarized briefly. as follows:
The result in PENNSYLVANIA is the de-
feat Of the Independent and Reform
movement. Edward S. Stewart, former
Mayor of Philadelphia and a candidate
of the regular Republicans, has defeat
ed Lewis Emery, the candidate of the
Lincoln Republicans and Democrats.
Senator Penrose. the Republican
leader Of the State, estimates that
Stewards majority will be 100, 900.
There was a very exciting election in
New Jersey, with the United States
Senatorship at stake. The indications
are that the Republicans will have at
least II majority on joint ballot, in
suring the election of Senator Dryden.
Connecticut went Republican, the en-
tire State ticket and five Representa-
tives in Congress being elected
Governor Cummins has been re-elect-
ed in Iowa by about $4,000, which is
Republican loss of $4,000. This was
due 10 dissatisfaction on the part of
the tariff reform element in the party
and to a recent speech which Cummins
made in Wisconsin, in a measure going
back on some ef the principles for
which he and Senator La Toilette had
stood
Governor Hoch is reelected Govern
or of Kansas by a considerably reduced
plurality.
indications are that Sheldon has been
elected Governor of Nebraska by
plurality of more than 5000.
Johnson CD is reelected Governor
of Minnesota
Indiana win give the Republican
State ticket 10000 plurality.
Davidson (R-) is elected Governor of
Wisconsin by about 10000 plurality.
DEMOCRATS MAKE GAINS.
Latest returns indicate that while the
Democrats have largely cut down the
Republican majority in the present
Congress, the Republicans viii hold the
balance of power in the Sixtieth Con-
gress by about sixty majority. whereas
they have majority of 112 in the
present House. Democrats have been
unable to overthrow the great Repub-
lican majority swept into the House
with the Roosevelt tidal wave of two
years ago.
The Congressional fight throughout
the country furnished many points of
interest Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor,
made an effort to defeat members of
the present House. Most of these ef-
forts failed as signally as did his en-
deaVor to defeat Representative Lit
tlefield in Maine last September He
opposed James S. Sherman of this State,
Representative Crumpacker of Indiana
and Representative Mann of Illinois
These are all probably elected by safe
pluralities.
Although spirited contest was
made by the American Federation of
Labor against Speaker Cannon, re-
ports from his district tonight fore-
shadow his reelection by a safe but
considerably reduced plurality
Representative Nicholas Longworth
