Figures Greatly Delayed.
The result of yesterdays primary, so far
as II Is accurately known in regard to state
officers. is given in the above lists. Never
since political returns were carried by mes
sengers on foot. by OK teams and canal
boats, have definite figures been so greatly
delayed IN any Illinois election as in the
one just closed.
Twenty-four hours after the polls closed
n was impossible 10 give accurate returns
on the vote for senatorial endorsement or
the gubernatorial nomination on the repub-
ucan ticket.
The vote for the republican senatorial en-
dorsement IN Chicago and Cook county vast
For Hopkins. A, toS; Mason. S99l7; Foss,
60 62: giving Foss plurality over Hopkins
of 9s94 In the state outside OF Cook county
the contest seemed TO be fairly even be-
tween Hopkins and Foss. with Mason fall
ing far In the rear. The general returns
were perhaps a shade IN favor Of Hopkins,
but whether or not his vote in the outside
counties will enable him to overcome the
strong lead gained by Foss in Cook county
is not yet known and it will probably be
another twenty-four hours before a positive
statement can DO made on the result.
Democratic Endorsement.
The democratic senatorial endorsement
may be dismissed with the single statement
that Stringer won easily in every county
in the state so far heard from tonight.
For the republican gubernatorial nomina-
tion Deneen received In Chicago and Cook
county. 7s7cO; Yates. 72.lO9; giving Deneen a
plurality In Chicago and Cook county OF
1881. The returns so far as received eely
tonight did not show that Yates was cutting
down this lead. In fact they seemed to show
that Deneen was slightly increasing his
plurality. His part managers claimed the
state by at lees and freely predicted
that his vote tes would show an
even larger ma The returns. how
ever. were slow atd scattered and It is to-
night entirely possible for Yates to win out.
His campaign managers claimed that he
has done 80 by about l0,0Oo.
'Adlai T. Stevenson. former vice president
OF the United states. ran far ahead OF his
opponent for the democratic gubernatorial
nomination, although James Hamilton
Lewis Of Chicago made a phenomenal run
In Chicago and Cook county securing
nearly as many votes as all other eandi-
dates together.
One OF the first counties outside OF Cook
TO send In complete returns was Peoria
6iKty-eight precincts out OF seventy In this
county gave Hopkins. 2.5e5: Mason, 1861;
Foss. 2,c6, fer senatorial endorsement on
the republican ticket.

ernor the figures were: Yates, s.27s
