Chicago Women Run for Aldermanic Honors and Vote by Thousands But Are Defeated by Their Male Com. petitors in the Election.

Birmingham, Ala, April 7.-Oscar w. Underwood, for nearly twenty years representative from the Ninth Alabama district in the lower house of congress, swept the state in the contest with Congressman Richmond Pearson Hobson for nomination to the United States senate, according to tonights returns from yesterday S democratic primary
 Mr. Hobson conceded the victory to his rival candidate before noon to- day. although returns still were in- complete tonight
 Mir. Underwoods nomination termi- mated one of the most spectacular political contests in the history of the state. With the exception of a whiri- wind speaking tour during the Christ mas holidays, the successful candi- dates campaign was conducted by his friends, Mir. Underwood remain ing in Washington, while Mir. Hobson conducted a vigorous Qersonal capy paign. charging his opponent with having been influenced by the liquor interests"
 Today Mir. Hobson sent the follow ing telegram to Mir. Underwood.

 "RTCHMOND P. ROBSON"
 Second only to activities in connec- ton in the long term senatorial race was the interest in the outcome of the contest for the short term anfi the four -cornered eubernatorial fight.
 Returns indicite Frank s. White of Birmingham has won the nomina- tion to fill the unexpired term of the late United States Senator Joseph F. Johnston. His nearest opponent was Ray Rushton of Montgomery, and later reports may alter the present aspects of the situation.
 X run-off primary in the guberna' torial fight seems inevitable. For mer Governor E. E. Conner apparently still has a plurality, but R. F. kolb of Montgomery and Charles Tender son of Troy are running close behind the leading candidate. A full count probably will be necessary to ascfs tain which will oppose Conner in the  second primary May II.
 Returns indicate that the only rep resentative in the lower house oi congress ho has been defeated TOT renomination is George w. Taylor oi the First district. 0. l.. Gray ol Choctaw county has a substantlaI lead. according to available figures.
