Returns from two-thirds of the
precincts of the city show that Hum
mel, Kugel, Wlthnell, Mayor Dahl
man, Butler and McGovern of the
present administration and Drexel OF
the anti ticket have been elected.
Jardine and Laroreaux of the antis
followed the seventh maa.
The election was an administra-
tion victory, the Square Seven" los
ing only one man, Edward Simon,
who was hopelessly lost in the shuf-
file. Commissioner Ryder, the "po-
litiSal orphan" also ran in the rear.
The returns are marked by various in
teresting features, one being the large
vote cast in the Twelfth ward for the
ants, where pahlman and his associates
received severe cut.
simon and Ryder.
The Third ward stayed by Simon, as
against Ryder, Notwithstanding persistent
reports that the administration would
ditch Simon at the last minute and pick
UP Ryder. Simon ran ahead of Ryder
nearly two to one in the Third ward.
The First, Second and Tenth wards
stayed by the administration ticket, as
was predicted.
The most striking feature of the re-
turns is the strong lead gained by Hum.
mel over Mayor Dahlman. regarded by
many as the magnet which would lead
the administration candidates

Another feature of the election Is th'
small difference between the low maj
on the administration ticket and teh higI
man on the anti-ticket
Harry B. Zimman ran ahead of Ryde
and simon. All day yesterday ther'
were reports that the sympathetic vote
would carry Ryder through; that the ad
