His Judiciary Ticket Wins
Claims to Last He Has
 Been Elected.

Elections were held yesterday inI forty-tWo states, and while the results in a number of instances were of un- usual interest, 1t may be said that generally speaking there were no great surprises.
 Throughout the south the democratic state and congressional tickets nave been elected by the usual majorities. In +ba west and east the states that were aligned two years ago in the democrat ic and republican columns show no ma terial change, the democrats making gains in some instances and the re- nublicans In others. The republicans retain control of congress by a good majority.
 Perhaps the widest general interest in the elections centered in the re- markable fight for governor which has been waged in New York state between Charles E. Hughes, the republican can- didate, who throughout the campaign Nhas had the support of President Roosevelt, and William Randolph Hearst, who has been running as the regular democratic and independence 1eaeue nominee. The latest returns available show that MT. Hughes, while losing nearly all of the principal cities of the state, was successful by about 10000 plurality. The rural districts brought about the republican victory.
 In New York city the Tammany-in- dependence league judiciary ticket was successful, with possibly one exception, over the candidates named by the non- nartisan judiciary nominators." Joseph H. choate, former Chief Justice Park CT of the state court of appeals, and other prominent members of the bar were behind the non-partisan ticket
 Massachusetts has reelected Curtis Guild, republican, as governor over District Attorney Moran of Boston, who was the candidate of the demo- cratic party, the independence league and the prohibitionists.
 In Chicago, it is estimated that the Independence league ticket boiled 4O- 900, but there was republican plural tty for the state officers.
 Pennsylvania has elected Stuart, re- publican, governor over fusion opposl- tion, by the usual republican plurality
 In Rhode Island James H. Higgins, democrat, is elected governor
 Michigan, Iowa, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Connecticut, Indiana ano wisconsin have rolled up big republican pluralities although there was some falling off from the usual vote ill Iowa
 Nebraska shows big republican gains Ohio also shows republican gains over the Pattison vote of last year. The re- publicans expect a plurality of 75,OOO II the state.
 The constitution of the new state oi Oklahoma will be written by democrats Oklahoma also went strongly democrat ic in choosing delegates to the con stitutional convention.
