 New York, Nov. 2-Charies F. Mur- phy, leader of Tammany Hall. issued the following statement tonight
 T rejoice in common with all good citizens in the magnificent triumph of the democratic candidate for mayor, Judge Gaynor. The importance of his election to the people of New York cannot now be fully measured. It must be particularly gratifying to the mayor elect that his personal charac- ter and public record have successfully withstood the most vindictive assaults ever made upon q political candidate in all my experience.
 T of course regret that any of the candidates on the ticket should be de- feated. The responsibility for their defeat is in no wise to be attributed to any unfitness or unworthiness on their part. The people will understand with out suggestion from me precisely what influences combined to bring about the result"

ARRESTS FOR VIOLATION
 OF THE ELECTION LAW
General. Absence of Disorder-Un- wieIdy Ballots Rapidly Cast.

New York, Nov. 2.-The features of today's election were the general ab- sence of disorder and the rapidity with which the vote was cast, not withstanding the unwieldy and com plicated ballots.
 Although many arrests were made for violation of the election law, the greater part of these were found to be due to clerical errors or misunder- standings The professional repeater and the, guerilla were chiefly notable by their absence. Credit for this sat- asfactory state of affairs was given largely to the new signature law, put into practice for the first time in a New York municipal election. Under this law, every voter. after receiving hIs ballot. is compelled to write his name and has it. compared with the signature which he made at the time of registration.
