ILLINOIS GIVES HUGHES
PLURALITY OF 100000
His Lead May Exceed Tafts
1904 Record
[By Telegraph TO The Tribune J

Chicago, Nov. 7.-Illinois has gone to
Hughes by a plurality that may reach
the Taft 1914 record of 304, 900. Returns
now indicate that the Hughes lead in
the state will not be less that 100000
As more figures arrive the margin for
the Republican candidate increases.
This is due largely to the fact that the
great Republican pluralities were de-
livered in the precincts where the num-
Der of voters was tremendous.
Mr.. Hughes carried Cook County by
not less than 10000, and his indicated
majority over the President in the 10l
counties outside of Cook is 900 He
won most of the women's vote as well
as the mems, both in Cook County and
the down state. The big railroad
centres and the heavy manufacturing
cities all went to him, while agricult-
ural counties through the corn belt
were Republican without murmur.
Southern Illinois. the Republican cita-
del, was solid for the Hughes electors.
President Wilson made no gains in any
OF the downstste, except for small
increase around Centralia where
William Jennings Bryan made per-
sonel appeal to boyhood friends. The
spectacular feature of the Illinois re-
suits was the magnificent work Of the
women.

Oyster Bay, Nov. 7.-Besming with
pleasure, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt,
in his homo at Sycamore Hill, tonight
gleefully discussed the election returns
and made the following statement:
'1n view Of the latest returns I have
received, 1t appears that Mr.. Hughes
is elected.
Il wish to express my profound graf
itude as an American proud OF his
country that the American people have
repudisted the man who coined the
phrase that this country was too proud

zone so much to relax the fibre of the
American conscience and to dull the
sense of honorable obligation. in the
American people.
I'VE are all of US sincerely to be con
graduated on the victory Of Mr..

tionsl honor Let me add. in view OF
certain charges that have been made.

state, but more c omplete returns
from the rural districts seemed like
ly to offset the Presidents lead and
to indicate majority for Hughes Of
$4,000. Kansas was still running 4
neck and neck race, with Hughes
slightly in the lead, and Delaware
was leaning to Wilson by the small
margin of 800 votes.
Although it did not appear likely
that Hughes would lose any mate
rial support as the returns became
more and more complete, the later
figures did show an unmistakable
lessening Of the margin Of victory in
many of the states that early in the
night were counted for Hughes by
large majorities.
New Jersey, President Wilson's
home state, gave Hughes one Of the
biggest relative majorities Of all the
states in the Union. The returns up
to 2 o'clock indicated that Hughes
would carry the state by 10000.
Hughes Carries Big States
The big outstanding feature Of the
returns was the fact that the Repub-
lican candidate carried the states
that have the big electoral vote, ex-
cepting only Ohio. Mr.. Wilson ap-
pears to have increased the Demo-
cratic strength Of the Bryan cam
paign Of 1908, but the Democratic
hopes of getting a large slice Of the
Progressive vote Of 1912 met with
crushing disappointment not only in
the East, but in Indiana, Illinois and
Ohio. At the outside the Democrats
did not get more than 20 per cent on
the average of the Progressive vote
of four years ago.
The swing to Hughes began early.
when New York gave the Republican
candidate a lead that will probably
mount up to a state majority over
Wilson of 10000 votes. New York
City, which had been counted upon
to give the President about $4,000
more votes than Hughes, gave him
only 10000. and the upstate Repub-
licans swept that aside with an over
whelming vote Of 10000. The New
York plurality for Hughes practical.
ly doubled his vote here eight years

still was in the doubtful column near
midnight, although returns from 5sb
precincts gave President Wilson 9l,l44

Of this vote was from the city pre-
cincts. Politicians were unable to fore
east how the country districts would so.
Kansas added ten electoral votes TO
the Wilson column IN 1912, the Presi-
dent's plurslity over Roosevelt being

rBy TELEGRAPH to The Tribune.l

Cleveland, Nov. while Democratic
State Headquarters is certain Wilson
has carried Ohio by 100000, big Repub-
lican gains in Cincinnati and the fail
ure of Democrats to count heavily in
Cleveland caused Republican leaders to
declare that Hughes had a chance to
carry the state.
Wilson will carry Cleveland by
10000, it is estimated, while in Toledo
mis- plurality will be about 5000. Akron
furnished a Wilson plurality placed at
5000, but Republicans declare that the
rural vote, which has not been heard
from, will more than Offset the Demo-
cratic pluralities in larger cities.
Hughes, they add, will win in Ohio by
a small plurality.
Democrats had figured on carrying
Cleveland by 10000, while 1t was esti-
mated that Hughes would get only
$4,000 plurality in Cincinnati. Repub.
lican gains in the Southern Ohio city
and Democrat losses in Cleveland may
swing the state for Hughes.
Ohio broke away from the Republi-
can column for the first time four
years ago, giving all twenty-four cleo
toral votes to Wilson. With the excep-
ton Of one vote for Cleveland, in 1892,
the state had been Republican since
1868. The 1912 vote was: Wilson,
423,152; Taft, 277,066; Roosevelt, 229,-
1927.
At 215 o'clock this morning, the
Cleveland Leader telephoned the Tri-
bune that Ohio, was for Hughes by
from fourteen TO 1900.
At that hour, with half the state in
including such centers as Cleveland
and Columbus and part of Cincinnati.
Wilson had lead of $500, part of the
state to be heard from includes the
heaviest Republican districts, which
are expected to return from 10000 to
$4,000 for Mr.. Hughes.
The reelection of Governor Willis is
claimed by "The Leader" by 10000. 1t
estimates the majority of ex-Ambassa-
dor Myron T. Herrick for the Senate
at not less than $4,000. and probably
10000.

BOWLING WINNER
BY 10000 MARGIN
Tammany Candidate Gets
All Boroughs in the
Aldermanic Race

Frank L. Bowling. Tammany candi-
date for President Of the Board OF
Aldermen, has been elected to fill the
chair left vacant in Mayor MitchePs
cabinet by the resignation of George
McAneny. Late returns show that in
1,405 districts of the city's 2,127 he has
polled 200,718 votes, against the Re-
publican and Progressive nominee,
Henry H. Curran, who has 1853, ,4S6 bal
lots to his credit.
This is in measure the answer to
tie people Of New York to the fusion
administration and foreshadows the
ascendancy of Tammany to its long-lost
power in the city election next year. If
Mr.. Bowling receives from the election
districts not yet in the same ratio of
votes that he has already obtained he
will win by more than 10000.
Democrats Slump in City
James c. Cropsey, of Brooklyn, has
apparently been thwarted IN MS at
tempt to obtain permanent seat in the
Supreme Court, Second Department, to
which he had been appointed to fill out
a term. Seventy-two election districts
give him 1890, and his Democratic op-
ponent, Philip A. Brennan, 1S,461.
John T. Norton, the Democratic cam
didate for associate justice 9f the Court
of Appeals, appears to have beaten the
Republican entry, Cuthbert ". Pound.
Nincty-fve election districts in Manhat-

cording to the present ratio, that

was adopted by 10000 and the suffrage

More than two million women
throughout the country cast their frst
ballots for President of the United
States in yesterdays election. These
women voters represented little more
than half of the total feminine vote.
In six states women voted for Presi-

six other states suffrage was accorded
the women pIior to the election IN lslZ
and nearly two million Of them voted

The Democrats had counted heavily
on the feminine vote, but the returns

states. In Illinois, the most important

campaign managers claimed the major
