COUNTY
 IS DEMOCRATIC

Unless later returns shall make a change it appears that the Demo- crats will organize the Fairfield coun- ty caucus on joint ballot of Senators and Repres sentatives, and may thus elect a County Auditor and a County Commissioner.
 These officers are nominated by the county caucus and confirmed by the Legislature. Inasmuch as the Demo- crats have s7 Representatives in the House and enough Senators to reduce the plurality of the Republicans on joint ballot to 70. there is little prob refuse to confirm a nomination so made.
 On the face of the returns as con- piled by the Hartford Courant. the Democrats have elected 15 Represen- tatives in Fairfield County and the Republican 16 These figures do not include two Democratic Representa- tives elected in Greenwich, raising the Democratic total to IT. The Demo crats in the county have elected four Senators, McNel and Paddock of Bridgeport, Donovan of South Nor walk and Dr. Dean Foster of Stam- ford who was elected by 8 plurality of 150 over Dr. Watson Rice.
 The Republicans have elected but three Senators, Bartlett of Bridgeport, Judson of Stratford, Peck of Dan bury. 1
 In New Canaan there is a tie for Representatives so that the Democrats appear to have a plurality of two in county caucus upon joint ballot and may gain another.
 Simeon Pease is the retiring County Commissioner.

ELECTION NIGHT
Continued from Page one)

Early in the evening Sheriff Hawley scented the impending disaster. while Candidate Lynn W. Wilson announced immediately upon hearing the returns from Bridgeport, basing his assertion upon his thorough canvass of the two counties of the district, that he would not defeat Hill. MT. Wilson's sup porters were not content with his fore cast, however, and as encouraging re- turns continued to pour in. insisted that the indications pointed to his vic- tory. It was late at night before it was learned finally that Congressman D. J. Hi1l had been elected by 8 great ly reduced plurality.
 Returns from Bridgeport gave Hallen such a substantial lead over Nobbs in the probate contest that there was lit tie doubt of his success. and 1t re- mained for only one of the outlying towns of the district to show that the Bridgeport returns had indicated the victory.
 By o'clock at Democrattic head quarters the Wheeler & Wilson band, and many of the successful candidates, formed a parade. and a march was be- gun through the center of the city. and to the homes of several of the success fn1 candidates. Judge-elects Halleu, Senators-elect Paddock and McNeil. Representatives-elec Bent and Meltzer rode in open carriages and automobiles following the band. Mayor Bucking- Iham was loudly cheered as he passed Fin his machine.
 Ablaze with red fire, ringing with martial music, rent with the cheers of admiring thousands, the parade swell ed in proportions as it progressed through the city. On the return from its march towards the West End, the parade halted in front of the office of The Farmer, and for a brief respite from the nerve-testing work of compil- ing and comparing bewildering col umns of figures, the staff gathered at the windows to acknowledge the sere- made rendered by the candidates and musicians.
 Republican headquarters was the cen ter of gloom. Returns were flashed in- to the offices from the various districts with all possible dispatch. and carry ing news of disaster they dispelled the professed confidence of the leaders and sent many of the adherents of the de- feated candidates home to an early bed. Curtains were drawn, darkness prevailed and the spirit of defeat made itself almost palpable.

OCCUPANTS OF BURNED
 BOAT ESCAPED,

The yawl burned in the local harbor yesterday morning was owned by F. T. Burrell of New Rochelle, who places a value of g, 300 on the pleasure craft. Burrell in company with two others put into the harbor late Monday ev- ening. A lighted cigarette thrown carelessly aside by one of the men fell upon a gasoline soaoked floor. Ths men fought the fire which got tSyond their control and they deserted the craft. Barely had they left, when the flames reached the gasoline tank, which blew up, enveloping the yaw1 in flames. The three men made their way ashore and boarded a train for New Rochelle, N. Y. Their absence from the city yesterday, and the fact that the ownership and Identity of the boat could not be learned, gave rise t0 the fact that probably the crew had been burned in their efforts to save the craft.

 MELTZER ON RESULT.

Attorney Joshua Meltzer who re- ceived many congratulary telegrams this morning upon his election as a representative said this morning: "The signal victory in this state, es- pecially the election of Judge Bald win which shows clearly that it was a fight between decency and corrup- ton. When the lines of a fight are drawn along these lines decency al- ways wins.
 For myself I can say that ante election pledges made will be kept to the letter. All progressive legis- lation which the Democratic platform is pledged to will be fought for and carried out as far as possible. It is unfortunate that the party does not control the legislature, but strong effort will be made to carry out the program. It will be up to the Re- publicans to show whether they have been sincere in their election prom iSeS"

 "We have unquestionably won a great victory. The greatest since 1892. My only regret is that MT. Wilson was not elected to Congress.
 "In my Senatorial district I feel con- fident that my majority would have been much greater had it not been for the large Socialistic vote boiled, but while they drew some from the Demo- cratic strength in my district, they un vote in East Bridgeport, making pos sible Senator Paddock's election.
 'I can only say that appreciate the loyal support of my friends. I shall endeavor to show my appreciation of their confidence in me by pursuing a course while a Senator at Hartford that will be in accordance with the Democratic platform and with the re- forms advocated by our party"
