is Turned Into Republican Rule
The Present Senate Holds
0xyor

New York, Nov. s.-From a Demo-
cratic majority of "a the New York
state assembly yesterday turned over
whelmingly Republican. All indications
point to the Republicans in the lower
chamber having majority of so over
their opponents. Thus the support of
Democratic majorities in both houses
which existed during the first half of
Governor John A. Dix's administration
will be lacking next year. The pres
ent Senate holds over.
Tn the unexpected landslide through
out the state the Democrats were able
10 capture only three seats held bv the
Republicans. one each in Rensselaer,.
Broome and Westchester counties. where
ms all over the commonwealth Demo-
cratic assemblymen fell BY the way
side. Not only did the Republicans
cut into the Democratic legislative ranks,
but in one instance, in Schenectady. Her
bert NJ Merrill, Socialist, won out
where a Democrat had held the seat,
the Socialist defeating as well a Re-
publican opponent. Merrill's plurality
was about 800.
In the avalanche, Daniel d. Frisbie,
speaker of the present House. managed
to hold his seat, and Lewis Stuyvesant
Chanler of Dutchess county is expect
ed to get in by the narrow margin of
about so votes.
Heavy inroads were made on the
Democratic representation in greater
New York, the Republicans sending nine
candidates down to defeat in New York
City, while in Kings county exactly the
same number OF candidates were beaten.
The Republicans also took seats in

SOCIALISTS SWEEP CITY.
Mayor and Most of the Officials in Sche-
nectady, NJ. Y.

Schenectady, N. Y, Nov. s. For the
first time in the history of this county,
the Socialists have polled a county Off
Ger and a majority of the county Offices
which will make the common council
and probably the county board of super
visors Socialist. Rev. DR.. George r.
Lunn, pastor of the United Peoples
church and editor of The Citizen. So
cialist weekly, was elected mayor by
a plurality of 1899, or practically two
thirds of the total vote polled. The Re-
publcans elected city Judge by plu-
rality Of less than so votes, but this
was the result Of no Socialist candi
date being nominated. Early returns
indicate that Herbert NJ. Merrill, So
cialist, will represent this county in
the assembly as he carried the city by
a plurality of about 1000.

REPUBLICAN GAINS
IN SEVERAL STATES
Democratic Governor Wilson OF
New Jersey Will Have Hos
tile Legislature, as Will Gov.
Dix of New york---RepubIl-
cans Sweep Rhode Island.

Boston, Nov. S.-The revised figures
this morning of yesterdays state cleo
tion give Governor Foss, Democratic, a
slight gain, making his plurality s,OOs.
Foss is the second Democratic governor
to be reelected during the past half
century. With the exception of Louis
A. rockingham, candidate for governor
against Foss, the Republican state ticket
was elected.
The vote for governor was as follows:
For Foss, Democratic, 2l0,72S.
For Frothingham, Republican, 2O2,I2O,
The lieutenant governor vote was as
follows;
For Robert Luce, Republican, 2oS,7OO.
For David |. Walsh, Democratic, 2Ol,-
$50.
Besides electing Acknowledgements,
the Republicans viii control both
branches of the legislature. The Repub-
lcans chose to make the tariff the lead
ing issue in the campaign, declaring the
policy of the national administration
should be maintained. Governor Foss
was about the only Democratic speaker
who attacked the Republicans on this
issue, and he asserted that reciprocity
with Canada was not dead issue.
Gov. Foss' Statement
In statement issued last night, Gov
ernor Foss said:
Massachusetts has spoken unmistak-
ably for an honest revision of the tariff.
The national significance of this election
Is inestimable; the rest Of the country
will follow the lead of Massachusetts, .
OF the four referendum provisions on
the Boston ballot, two were passed by
heavy votes and two are still in doubt.
The vote authorizing the annexation
OF the town OF Hyde Park was carried
by large majority, being likewise car
fied in the town of Hyde Park
Another measure to meet with very
general approval was for an amendment
to the constitution increasing the power
of the legislature to authorize the taking
of land and property for highways or
streets, with the idea Of giving the state,
cities and towns permission to take
more land than is necessary for public
improvement, so that sufficient may be
secured at each side of street or boue-
ward to permit of its sale in improved
form and thus reduce the cost of the inn
provement to the state, city or town.
The vote on the recall Of the mayor of
Boston was still in doubt at late hour.
The vote on a proposed amendment To
the constitution providing for the use of
voting machines At all elections was in
doubt at a late hour.

Bursum and Mcdonald Both Claim the
Governorship.

Albuquerque, n NJ, Nov. s.-Bursum,

for governor, both claim the election on
early returns.
Albuquerque and Las Vegas, both ordi-
narily strongly Republican, are conceded.
however, to the Democrats, the former
by 700 and the latter by 200.
It seems safe to predict Republican
legislature which win elect two United
States senators, but the Democrats ap.
parently have excellent chances Of elect
ing a state ticket and congressman.
