HUGHES PLURALITY I'LL Elk
CEED 10000 VOTES.
Hearst Carried Only Two Counties In
the State Outside Of New York
Chemung and Schoharie.

NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-Revised re
turns, some of them based ON esti-
mates, indicate a plurality of abou
135,000 for Hughes above the Bronx
This would make his plurality in tte
state about 10000. Corrected figure
from Westchester county for Hughes
make up most of the difference fron
the former estimate Of Hughes plu
rality. Republican pluralities in Al
tany, Columbia, Cortland, Erie, Mad
ison, Montgomery and Oneida shov
Bruce, Republican, for lieutenant gov
ernor, about 700 ahead of Hughes. On
the basis Of $4,000 upstate plurality
for Hughes, this would seem to show
Bruce's election by narrow margii
but as the Democratic candidates TO
the other state Offices ran ahead o.
their tickets, they appear now to be
elected All the Democratic state can
didates ran far ahead Of VIM. r. Hears.
in Greater New York, and their plu.
ralities of approximately 100000 over
their Republican opponents may have
the effect of overcoming the Republi-
can lead in upstate counties.
The closest contest undoubtedly will
be between Mr.. Bruce, Republican
and Mr.. Chanler, Independence Leagm
and Democrat for lieutenant governor.
Chanler's plurality in Greater New
York is about 1876 900. In some of the
up estate counties Bruce ran ahead OF
his ticket. Even IL Bruce has come
down to the Bronx on an eyer SesAinp
with Haghes the .pin<aifty .ok sehaaie,
would have been q scant $4,000, If the
returns yet to come show that the Il,
epublicah candidate made gains in
other counties, this plurality may b.
cut down If not entirely wiped out.
Next to lieutenant governor the fig
ures at hand show that John 8. Whaien
the Democratic candidate for secre
tary Of state, may come through .
winner by the closest margins~s
AS more important returns began u
come in by counties today. 1t was seer
that in some instances there was Q
small but consistent lead by the latte
Republicans and this over the eandi
lates on the headao of their ticket.
Hearst Got Two Counties. ~.
VIM. X. Hearst apparently carried
only two counties in the state outside
Of Greater New York. These were
chemung and Schoharie. 1t was n
his home city, however, that he en-
eountered the bitterest and most de
termined opposition. Kings county, OF
which Patrick MeCarren is the Dem
ocrati G leader, last year gave Hearst
for mayor lrge plurality. But yes
tcrday McCarren exerted all his forces
to return Hughes a plurality in al
county. His instructions to his can
tains was to cut Hearst and vote III
remainder Of the Democratic ticket.
While Hearst succeeded in carrying
the county by a plurality of 45O0, tn,
returns for the remainder of the. stat,
ticket show that his trouble with Me
Carren cost hi mdearly. The plural;t,
of the county Of the Democratic can
didates who were not eff cted by Nc
Carren Is order exceeded that Of ~,
head Of the ticket by more than 10000
Had Hearst received these votes i
would have cut Hughes lead in .a'
state practically in half.
