SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. G-The election
IN the city yesterday proved a veritable
landslide for the anti-graft leaders and re-
turns from every precinct so far received
show that the good government ticket has
been overwhelmingly elected from top to
bottom. II is estimated that Mayor
Taylor has been elected by a plurality Of
more than 1900 votes, while District At7
torney william n. Langdon has. 80 far,
a majority OF 1900 votes over MCGOWAN,
his opponent. The election passed of quietly.
free from any riotous demonstrations, and.
in spite OF tense strain voters we're sub
tected to, there was not the slightest dis
order at the polls.
Partial returns from 1S9 precincts indi-
cate the election Of Mulcrevy for county
clerk Horton, auditor; McDougal treas
urer. and Watson, recorder All the men
are labor union candidates, and they are
the only men not on the Good Government
league ticket who were elected.
The entire board OF eighteen supervisors
on the good government ticket was elected

NEW YORK. Nov 6.--AdditionaI returns
confirm the general results already an
nounced and clear up some of the doubts in
closely contested elections. The main re-
suits, as now established, are as follows:
Governor Guild Of Massachusetts has in
creased his plurality to about 1O5,OOO,
against 10000 in 1906 The entire state
ticket and both branches of the legislature
are republican. OF the two democratic
candidates Henry NJ. Whitney strongly out
ran Charles w. Bartlett. the latter falling
far below Thomas L. Hisgen. candidate Of
the Independent league.
Maryland. which was in doubt last night.
has elected the democratic candidate for
governor, Judge Austin L. Crothers and the
entire democratic state ticket by about
7.oO0 plurality Thb Legislature Is appar-
entity democratic. Ex-Governor Smith car
ried the primaries for the long term in the
United States senate, and Senator William
Pinckney whYte Is assured of the short
term.
Tste rasaIIt,in New Jersey has become 30
close tEat II may require the oficlal re-
turns TO decide between Katzenbaeh, the
democratic candidate for governor. and
Judge Fort, the republican nominee. The
early reports of Katzenbach's lead of 1900
have been followed by detailed returns
showing that only n few hundred votes
separate the contestants. At Newark
Forts election Is claimed by a plurality Of
about 175. In 1904 Governor Stokes. repub-
liean. mad a majority of 81 900 In New Per-
sey.

Rhode Island has reelected Governor
James II. Higgins, democratic candidate for
governor. his plurality now reaching 1901
a gain of 1000 since 1904 The general as
sernbly Is republican in both branches, in
surinR the return Of George Peabody Wet
more to the United States senate.
Kentucky has elected the entire republi-
can state ticket, headed by Augustus e
Wilson for governor. by majorities rang
ing from 5000 to 100O0. The Kentucky
legislature will have a democratic majority
on joint ballot and probably will elect
