A Word About the Candidates
Who Have Been Elected to
Serve as Mayors and
Governors.

~N HE November elections this
year were remarkable chiefly
for the interest which prevail
ed all over the country In lo-
cal contests. The struggle over the
election Of mayor and board Of esti-
mate and apportionment in New York
city wholly overshadowed the consti-
tutional amendments submitted in the
state California had no gubernatorial
election, but if there had been a state
contest this year it would have meant
little compared with the intense impor-
tance attached to the mayoralty ques-
ton. In Ohio there was no state elec-
ton, but the political excitement over
the fifth candidacy of Tom l.. Johnson
ran above the usual high water mark.
In Toledo the candidacy Of Brand
Whltlock was almost equally engross-
ing. In Louisville the contest over
city and county tickets aroused greater
activity than has been attached to a
state campaign for many day. Mas
sachusetts, Rhode Island and Virginia
elected governors. but the day in nei-
ther commonwealth was marked by a

mainder OF the ticket was defeated. In
Cleveland the redonbtable Tom john

City elected H. Otto Wittpenn, Demo

jority of his political associates on the

In san Francisco the political reform
movement received a temporary check
by the triumph of the Union Labor
candidate, P. H. Mccarthy. whose
campaign slogan was. IF I'm elected
III make San Francisco the Paris of
America"
A few days before the election Mr..
Mccarthy stated as follows what he
and the members of his party would
do for San Francisco If he were elect
ed mayor:
when / am elected mayor propose
to give San Francisco a decent, clean,

arranged for; the bringing Of pure wa

possible time. in the best possible man

offices will be located. will stop

Victory Of Fusionists.

Outside of mayor the fusionists con-
troll all important offices in New York.
The real government of the city is
invested In the board of estimate and
apportionment. On this board the
mayor has three votes, the comptroller
three votes, the president of the hoard
of aldermen three votes, the presi-
dent of the borough of Manhattan two
votes, the president of the borough of
Brooklyn two votes, borough president
Of the Bronx one vote, borough presl-
dent Of Queens one vote, borough
president of Richmond one vote; total,
sixteen votes. All these, with the ex-
ception of Gaynor, are fusionists or
independents. The comptroller, w. A.
Prendergast, is fusion Republican.
The president of the board of alder
men, John Purroy Mitchell. is fu-
sion Democrat, which is also the case
with George McAneny, borough presi-
dent of Manhattan, the man who in
vestigated the deposed Tammany bor-
ough president Ahearn. The borough
president of Brooklyn. A. e. Steers,
Borough President of the Bronx @. C.
Miller and Borough President Of Rich
mond G. Cromwell are all fusionists,
while the borough president of Queens.
L. Gresser. is Hearst independent
This gives the anti-Tammany forces
fifteen votes to Gaynor's three.
An amusing part of all this is that
Gaynor repeatedly said that he would
not serve unless his Tammany asso-
ciates could be elected with him.
President Mitchell of the board of all
dermen, who would become mayor in
case Gaynor resigned, is now calling
on that gentleman to make good his
threats.

BETTER TONE IN
STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, Nov. l3.-Copper stocks
furnished the object of speculative di-
version today in the dullness which held
the general list. The return from abroad
of a number of capitalists credited with
deciding voices in negotiations believed to
have been under way for consolidating cop
per interests was made the occasion for the
demonstration in that group. Guarded ad-
missions were interpreted by the specula-
tive element as confirmation of the reports
on the subject which have been in circula-
tion, but no authoritative announcements
were made. This movement acted as
tonic on the stock market.
Confidence was kept up by assertions
that supplies of credits sufficient to guard
stock market values would be forthcoming
from other sources than the clearing house
banks Statements were made that for
eign lenders were offering funds in New
York and that the great private bankers
were applying resources to the protection
of the call money market
There was large flow of gold into the
Bank of England largely from the Bank
of France
Account was taken of the additional
drain already in sight on the New YORK
bank reserves Prospects are that further
gold will go out to South America, be-
sides engagements already made that do
not figure in today's bank statement.
Trade reports were encouraging, and re-
turns of October gross earnings of railroads
were sufficient to indicate a high water
mark for that month.
The fact that no call loans are made at
the stock exchange on Saturday left the
market without an accurate index of the
tone, but a strong demand for time loans
was reported. Loans for go days were
made at So per cent, and that rate was
asked for 80 days.
The appearance of the bank statement
confirmed the confidence of those who had
expected the surplus to be conserved, the
enormous loan contraction reported operat-
ing. in fact, to add substantially to the
margin of the surplus.
