 People were busy yesterday explain ing how it all came about-the election. This part of the city was pretty well deserted election night and crowds booked to the, center of the city to get the returns They went to bed late and many didn't go bed at all' The vot- ing place in the Eleventh ward was In the blacksmith shop in East Chapel street near the cornor of Poplar. You strike off several hundred feet from Chapel and you come to the blacksmith shop. The exit is through an unoecu- pied lot and by a pasture-like path back to Chapel street. After all, it was not a bad place to vote There was plenty of room and the voting place was Tn a central part of the ward. In the Twelfth the voting place was, as it has been for years in the old Quinnipiac rink. This rink has been used for many uses roller skating, roller polo, basketball, entertainments of various kinds, car- riage shop, auto salesrooms and for caucuses and elections numerous.
 In the Eleventh ward there was a surprise for the republican candidate for alderman. He was first declared elected by twelve votes and when the revised figures were given out at head quarters in town 1t was shown that he had lost to Thomas H. Keleher by just eight votes, If the republicans had turned out and voted the friends Of Richard c. Miller say he would have been elected. It was a close run in 8 total vote of 983.
 In the Fifteenth ward Andrew P AL len, democrat, was reelected alderman. The Eleventh ward gave Woodruff one majority for governor. This is not so good by twenty-seven votes as the ma jority of two years ago, but the total vote two years ago was 200 larger.
 In the Twelfth ward 1,5S7 votes were boiled, as compared with 1861 two years ago. This is a strong democratic ward, although the republicans boiled 679 i votes Tuesday.
 ' The Fourteenth ward gave majority of 14S for Woodruff, as compared with 16O for Roberts two years ago, but the latter vote was seventy greater.
 The Fifteenth ward cast 959 votes for governor, as against 396 two years ago, and gave Woodruff 57 majority, as com pared with Roberts 42 two years ago, So while it was not full vote, the re- lpublicans are congratulatng themselves that they did pretty we'll in an off year, except in losing an alderman when he could have won.
