Socialists Are Badly Beaten.
There was the usual great fuss about
illegal votip~, with the usual lack OF
results. The number of prisoners
taken from the polling places to the
seven police courts of the. city and ar
raigned for alleged violation of the
election law was 431. All but seven
were discharged, one being held for
trial and six for examination.
Great Crowds Watch Results.
The closing of the polls was the sig
nal for a rush to Park row, where the
newspapers had strung up large white
canvases on which were thrown cleo
ton results, and thousands of persons
congregated in City Hall park and
nearby streets. There were other
crowds in front of the bulletin boards
on Broadway, in Harlem, and in Brook
Ign.
Two hours after the polls had closed
several newspapers issued extras an
nouncing the election OF Taft, and
throughout the thousands arose now
| familiar refrain,
Taft, Taft, Big Bill Taft"
From opposing thousands came the
| chorus:
wait and see; Taft has not won
yet"
Broadway was the scene OF much
revelry, a continuous parade of merry
makers moving up one side of the
Great White Way and down the
| other.

Those for Chamberlain
many Active.

New York, Nov. 4.-The republi-
cans have carried New York state for
both the national and state tickets.
Taft has won by a tremendous plural
ity and Hughes by a good safe mar
gin. Taft's plurality may reach 200,-
600 and he has done the surprising
thing Of carrying Greater New York
by small figure.
Hughes plurality now is estimated
at $4,000 to 10000. but it may be
greater. Shearn, the Hearst candi-
date for governor, polled between
rs, 900 and 10000 in Greater New
York.
Taft's great plurality was due al
most wholly to democratic losses in
New York and Brooklyn. The figures
show that Taft's vote up state fell off
heavily from that received by Roose-
welt in 1904, but Bryan's vote in New
York and the other counties making
up the greater city slumped heavily
from Parker's and even from his own
vote in 1900.
Bryan Gets a Knitting.
Tammany and Pat McCarren's ma
chine in Brooklyn evidently knitted
Bryan numerically. Had they work
ed for him loyalty, instead of betray-
ing him, the result in this state might
have been actually close. But the
hopes of "Fingy" Connors, Murphy
and the McCarren gang we're centered
on Chanler and they sold Bryan out
to gain their end.
Likewise the machine republicans
sold out Hughes. Never was there a
more striking example of how little
political bosses care for principle than
in this election.
The race track and gambling ele-
ment of whatever party was, of course
against Hughes. A whole train load
of track followers and horse owners
came over from Baltimore, where a
race meeting is being held at Pimli-
CO, to vote for Chanler. The solidar-
ity of the racing vote was shown by
the results.
How Face Influence Counted.
The election districts in the Six
teenth Assembly district of Brooklyn,
which includes Brighton, Sheepshead
Bay, and the Gravesend race tracks,
gave the following vote:

FEAR OF WEDDING u
DRIVES HIM CRAZY

MILWAUKEE, Nov. Flour
times Wenzel Stanek, a young
South Milwaukee carpenter, was
engaged to marry the same young
woman. Four times he broke off
the engagement. AS he dropped
the letter breaking off the fourth
engagement into a mailbox he be-
came a raving maniac.
A patient in the county asylum
for the violently insane, his case is
attracting the attention of county,
staff and other physicians.
According to the county physi-
clan, the case is one of the most
unusual ever brought to his atten-
ton, because of the peculiar couse
of Stanek's insanity.
Stanek was afraid of married life,
according to DIR. Young. Each time
Stanek broke the engagements
with the wedding hours near at
hand. DIR. Young thinks there is
little doubt but that StaHek loved
the girl he promised to marry, but
that he feared he was too young

prone to severe "slumps," one OF
which may some time prove fatal.
Rossman hardly has a chance. He
hits hard, but he is a very slow
runner, and that fault is almost GER

Donlin would seem to have a
good chance to equal Wagner's
mark, and perhaps Anson's. But

vivial set, and it's dollars to dough

Wagner looms up as the one man
in line for the honor of equaling the
wonderful mark set by Arson.
Three more seasons as a 800 hit
ter and Wagner will have edualed
Anson's great feat; four more and
he will have set base ball record
that would be likely to stand for
few decades, if not forever.
Arson, Brouthers, Delehanty and
the lamented Pete Browning were
the greatest sluggers who ever
lived. Duffy and Hamilton were
marvellous hitters, but they were
aided greatly by their speed in get
ting to first on infield drives.
Keller, Kelley, Burkett and Lajoie
all appeared as stars after the bunt
ing game had developed as an aid
to sticking. The first named quartet
were all big men, not wonderfully
fleet of foot, and they made their
averages by hitting the ball.
