Unofficial returns being received from
tribes scattered over the State begin to
give some fair Indication as to at least
partial results in the recent spirited con-
test for State officers. The reelection of
Great Chief of Records Thomas X. Dom
nalley and Great Keeper of Wampum
Joseph Farrar is conceded by n substan-
tiaI plurality. For some of the other
offices II will require an official count to
determine the result. while for the initial
chieftancy, in the progress through the
Great Council chairs unofficial returns
from 36S tribes give Samuel Williams Jr.,
of Scranton, lead of about $50 votes.
