TGmmany Majority
Greatly Reduced;
Plurality 10000

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Though Leader
Murphy, Of Tammany Hall, has a clear
plurality Of 5000 for his sheriff and
judges, he failed to bury Hearst, as
he claimed he would do.
Many Temmany men hoped for g.
plurality of 5000. the same as the
Hearst-Tammany plurality OF 1906. This
would have proved that Hearst did not
count in New York politics and that
Tammany was the whole thing.
Instead Of this the Tammany candi-
dates polled eOnly 5000 plurality and
the Hearst candidates for judge OF the
court OF appeals, who had no other in
cCrsement, pOlled a total Of $500 in
Manhattan and Bronx boroUgks out OF
a grand total of 2l9,6OO. in Brooklyn
the Hearst judges received 80, 600 votes
as against the combined Republican
Democratic vote of $4,000. These figures
indicate the total Hearst vote in Great
ct New York to be over 1000, a form
fdahle body which politicians VIII have
TO figure on in future campaigns
A few Republicans blame their defeat
20 the ParSons-Hearst fusion On sheriff
and the minor judges, but the Hearst
people claim that the Republicans would
have been much worse on without them.
