 Experienced.

Cleveland, O., Nov. 6.--Defeating Congressman Theodore L. Burton Mayor Tom L. Johnson was elect ed to a fourth term as mayor of Cleve- land by a plurality ol from o,0o0 10 5000
 This mayOralty campaign has fur nished more excitement in Cleveland than any other similar contest. Mayor Johnson asked reelection on q plat form demanding Sc street ear fares, while MT. Burton advocated an im- mediate settlement of the traction question on a basis of not more than seven street car tickets for 25c.
 Victory Conceded to Johnson.
 At midnight Chairman Baker of the republican committee conceded the election of Johnson by 5.000 plurality. At the Johnson headquarters his ma jority is placed at a higher figure, and the election of the entire demo cratic city ticket is indicated by 5000 or more. The democrats elected majority of the councimen.
 Congressman Burton made consider. able gains over the vote of two years ago. when William H. Boyd was the republican candidate, but the gaih was not sufficient to overcome the strong Johnson lead
 At midnight the official count on 130 of PA precincts gave Johnson 23990 and Burton 20,439. The present ratio, if maintained, will give Johnson ma, tority of more than 5000.
