Philadelphia, May 21.-Returns
more or less complete of the vote for
Supreme Court judge from 81 out Of
81 counties put Judge Kunkel slightly
ahead of Judge Endich. The vote is:
Kunkel 56,231; Endlich 55,S01.
In some counties the returns were
sealed without being computed and it
VIII be necessary to wait until the Of
fetal count is completed before the
vote for some of the candidates will
be known.
The returns received include Phila-
delphia. Allegheny and the home coun-
ties of Kunkel and Endlich.
Much difficulty is being experienced
In obtaining returns in advance of the
official county, the figures secured be-
Ing incomplete in many instances.
Official counts start tomorrow in
the counties of the State and the Off
cial returns will then be filed at the
Capitol where the results will be COM
puted
The results of the Statewide pri-
maries on Tuesday stand practically MS
given yesterday. Boies Penrose's plu-
rality over ]. Benjamin Dimmick, Of
Scranton, for the Republican nomina-
tion for United States Senator win
probably exceed $4,000. DimmiclS
carried Lackawanna, Union, Wyoming,
Luzerne, Miiiiin and Westmoreland
counties
a. Mitchell Palmers victory over
Henry Budd for the Democratic nomi-
nation for United States Senator was
quite as overwhelming Budd car
ried but two counties, Philadelphia and
Carbon.
DR.. Martin G. Brumbaughs lead
over his three opponents for the Re
publican nomination for governor is
tremendous Their combined vote Is
less than half the total cast for the
popular school official
Vance c. McCormick's plurahipaQver
City Solicitor Michael j. Ryan, of Phil
adelphia, for the Democratic nomina-
ton is roughly estimated at 25000,
The Harrisburg cX-mayors friends
claim fifty-two counties for him with
out doubt. Some of the counties which
It appears Ryan probably carried, be-
SIDES Philadelphia, are Luzerne Allie
pheny, Northampton, Lackawanna,
Bucks, Clinton, Erie and Carbon.
Up to midnight last night only forty
two counties had reported returns on
the Mccormick Ryan fight. These
showed a total for Mccormick of 49,
$50 and for Ryan of 54,553, a major
ity of more than 1900 for the win
Lackawanna, Luzerne and Schuylkill
counties will reduce this, but it is ex-
pected that other missing counties will
more than make up the loss.
A dispatch from Pittsburgh says:
Congressman NJ. Clyde Kelly. of the
Thirtieth Pennsylvania Congressional
District, was refused the nomination
by the Republicans of his district in
the primaries of Tuesday, according
TO the complete returns. William III.
Coleman won the nomination by a
majority of about 1900. The district
was formerly represented by John Dal-
Zell, who was defeated by Kelly two
years ago
The big steel mills are located in
the district and Il fight was made
against Kelly because he voted for the
Underwood tariff bill. Kelly also lost
the Democratic nomination, but his
name will be on the Progressive
ticket
