NEW YORK CROWDS
 CHEER FOR WILSON
Street in Front of Democratic Head
 quarters Blocked.

New York, Nov. S.-When The As- sociated Press informed democratic headquarters that President Wilson had carried California there was a wild cheer and the crowd of workers who had been on duty almost con- stantly for two days and two nights seemed to forget they were weary. The street in front of headquarters was blocked all the evening wit hcrowds cheering for Wilson.
 After-t theatre crowds were thronging Broadway and adjacent streets in the white light" district when beams of light from searchlights in the towers of lofty buildings flashed the an- nouncement that MT. Wilson had been reelected. There was tumultuous cheering and several imprompt pa- rades were organized.
 Only a few minutes earlier MT. Hughes had strolled a few blocks from the theatre he had attended to his I1o- tel, but the result in California had not been definitely determined then. The republican nominee was recog- nized and cheered by many in the throngs. He smiled and returned.
 Soon after he reached his room in the hotel he was shown a telegram announcing that California had gone for Wilson, but his secretary an- nounced that he had no comment to make.

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL
 COMMITTEES STATEMENT,
Claims Wilson Has Carried Country b,
 Popular Plurality of 100000.

New York, Nov 9.-The democratic national committee gave out the fol- lowing statement when the result in California became Known:
 s@s The president has carried the coun- try by a popular plurality of from 200. 900 tos 310,00e. With an electoral vote of 272 absolutely sure, and with Minnesota, West Virginia and New Hampshire still to be decided, to say there will be any contest is an insult to the intelligence of the American people.
 There is nothing to add to our statements previously made. We have claimed the reelection of President Wilson since early Tuesday; we knew we had it. We have been fighting es- pecially for the western states Vance Mccormick of the democratic national committee left headquarters at 11.30 o'clock, saying that he was satisfied that the preId1lt had been reelected.
 The large crowd at democratic head quarters that had been watching the returns all evening broke loose into a riot of applause when the California result was posted. Hundreds in the street immediately fell in behind sev- eral bands and a parade was started down Forty second street to Fifth ave- nue. After a march of only a few blocks, however, the paraders returned to headquarters and soon dispersed.

WIRELESS MESSAGE TELLS
 WILSON OF HIS VICTORY.
Secretary Tumulty Sends His Con-
 gratuIations by Radio.

Asbuy Park. N. J.. Nov. g. 11.3o p. m.-Secretary TunIlty wired formal notification to the president of his re- election. The message was wirelessed to the president aboard the Mayfower. It was as follows:
 T am here surrounded by the loyal democrats of Old Monmouth and beg leave to send you our greeting and congratulations The cause you have so nobly represented has at last trf- umphed and we greet you. Our hearts, our thoughts and our affections go to you"
 Secretary Tumuity waited for the flash from The Associated Press that President Wilson had carried Califor- mia. When it came shout of joy went up inside the executive offices and Secretary Tumulty, who had told the president he would not congratu- late him until the definite news was known, senta wireless message to the Mavhower EfvinE his congratulations.

 All the 45 bodies at the North Grave Street morgue have been identified. Investigations of the ac- cident, which Motorman Gerald Walsh said was due to the absence of guard lights. went on today. Walsh, who was rescued after jumping from his platform. is being held on a charge of manslaughter.

CUMMINGS NOT PREPARED
 TO NAME INDIVIDUAL
In His Charge of Excessive Use of
 Money in Fairfield County.

Bridgeport, Conn, Nov. 9.-Homer s. Cummings, states attorney for Fairfield county today announced that he will cause an investigation to be made of reports of alleged excessive use of money and excessive employ ment of election workers in the coun- ty in connection with Tuesdays cleo tion. MT. Cummings was the demo- cratic candidate for United States sen- ator.
 Connecticut gave a little less than 5000 plurality for Hughes, about 4,000 of which came from Fairfield county, which contains about one-fffth of the states population. and is a large in dustrial community, in which demo- cratic leaders had predicted a Wilson majority. It is alleged by the demo- crats that throughout. the county a large number of persons were illegally employed to work at the polls and in other ways in connection with the election and large sums of money were received and expended in the interest of the republican candidates.
 MT. Cummings said later that he was not prepared at present to name any individual in his charges nor would he say what form the investi- gation would take. He had evidence he said to support charges that money had been used lavishly by republicans especially in Bridgeport, and special attention would be given in the in- vestgaton to conditions in that city.

AIR RAIDS MADE
 ON AUSTRIAN TOWNS
Not the Slightest Damage Done and
 No One Was Hurt, Says Vienna.

Berlin Cby wireless to Sayville), Nov. 9.-The towns of Rovigno, Pa renzo. Citanuova and Umago, in Istria, below Trieste were attacked on Tues day by Entente airplanes, the Austro- Hungarian admiralty announces. One of the airplanes was shot down. Yer megliano and Montfalcone, on the low CT Isonzo front. were raided by Aus trian aircraft.
 ''On the afternoon of Nov. hostile tile aviarors dropped bombs on the towns of Rovigno, Parenzo and Citta- nuova," the statement says. "Not the slightest damage was done and no one was hurt. Our airships went up to pursue the attackers. One of our avi- ators, Lieutenant Dreklic, shot down a hostile airplane, which descended in the vicinity of hostile torpedo boats on the high seas. The torpedo boats. bombed by our airplanes, retired to- wards the enemy's coast.
 "On the evening of the same day one hostile airplane dropped bombs near Umago, also without success.
 During the evening our seaplanes dropped bombs very successfully on military objects at Vermegliano and Monfalcone, and returned undamaged

Washington, Nov. g. Government officials here were deeply interested in, and not little concerned over to- days announcements from democratic and republican campaign leaders that contests might be expected. with a possibility of legal proceedings, over the votes for presidential electors in several of the close states.
 Electors Are State Officers.
 Examination of the decisions of the supreme court and of the revised plainly regarded as state officers. The highest court has held in two leading cases that questions of their proper or improper choice are for state elec- tion officers or state courts to deter mine and that the federal government is not lawfully concerned even if fraud is shown.
 Legal End of the Election.
 The revised statutes provide that the electors shall meet in each state and give their yotesp on the second Monday in January following election, at places to be designated by the state legislatures. In the ordinary course of proceedings where the right of the electors to sit is uncontested their of representatives on the second We'd nesday and this would be the legal end to the election.
 What Statutes Provide.
 The statutes further provide that where a state shall have laws made prior to the election determining the methods by which controversies or contests over electors shall be settled, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwises theseeA 1dWss ssss4iaH@ be bind ing and shall govern in counting the electoral .yete5as-e=0 0fcialsz-llere were under the impression that it would be found that all the states that may be involved in contests have laws of this character.
 Counted Second Monday in January.
 Aside from the direction that the electoral votes of all the states be counted in the house on the second Monday in January, there seems to be nothing to indicate just how much latitude a state might have in determ- ming contests so as to have it's vote counted at the fixed time. The statutes provide that the votes of the ington forthwith after the electors meet on the second Monday in Janu. ary and also say that whenever the certificate of any state as to its elec- tors has not been received in Wash ington on the fourth Monday in Jan- uary a special messenger shall be sent to the district judge in that state, lodged, and he is required forthwith to forward his certificate to the capi- ta1
 Powers of Congress. When congress meets to receive the votes it is still possible for a majori- ty to reverse the certified results from any state in certain cases. As the

Mayo, commander of the Atlantic fleet, were appointed by Sec retary Daniels yesterday as the board of election authorized by the last na- val bill directing that officers in the grades of commander. captain and rear admiral of the line of the navy here- after be promoted by selection and not by seniority.

Sechteler, Rear Admiral Albert Gleaves and Rear AdmIal Albert w. Grant.

New York, Nov. 9.-President Will son has carried California and has been reelected.
 Fifty hours after the polls closed in Califosnia, Republican Chairman Powell conceded the state to the pres- ident Thus the thirteen votes need ed to assure the president majority in the electoral college dropped into the democratic column and apparently ended the suspense and anxiety of an election which has been unparalleled in American political history.
 Republican Chairman Wilcox, when informed that the president had cer- ried California, only replied:
 T have nothing to say"
 TumuIty Sends Wireless.
 Secretary Tumulty, at the summer White House at Shadow Lawn, sent the news by wireless to President Will son on board the yacht Mayf1ower en route to Rhinecliff, N. Y.
 The California returns showed that with only AS districts missing the 2970.
 Barring some wholly unexpected turnover in the incomplete states leaning toward Wilson, or a change on a recount, California's acquisition to the democratic column gave the presi- dent 269 electoral votes without New Mexico's three. In New Mexico at Midnight the president was leading by 2634 votes with 15s districts missing and 1t was not believed this advantage could be overcome by MT. Hughes.
 How Hughes Stands.
 Conceding West Virginia, New Hampshire and Minnesota to MT. Hughes-and he was in the lead in all three-only gives him 259 votes, seven less than the required majority. With PIP votes in sight President Wilson had six to spare for a possible split of electors in California, or a sudden reversal in New Mexico.

REPRESENTATIVES, IN CONGRESS
 ABOUT EVENLY DIVIDED
Thus Far the Democrats Have Elect
 ed 215 Members-RepubIican 211.

New York, Nov. 9.-Congressiona1 election returns, which were nearly complete tonight, assure President Wilson, for the forthcoming adminis- tration democratic senate but, with five districts still undecided. the best that the democrats could claim at midnight was plurality of four votes in the house.
 Upon the basis of revised returns the democrats have elected 215 mem bers of the house and the republi- cans 211. In addition there have clal1St. one progressive and one pro- gressive protecticnist. Four districts in West Virginia. two of them norm ally democratic, and two republican, and one district in New Mexico, are stll undecided. If these districts do not change the democrats will have 2l7 and the republicans 214, a plural ity of only three. As there will be four members of other minority parties a working majority for the democrats is improbable unless some of the mil nority members should choose to cast their lot with the administration forces.
 Democratic Senate. ---,.
 The senate, according to latest fig ures, will consist of 54 democrats and 42 republicans. a majority of 12 The democratic majority in the present senate is 16. The only development in the senatorial situation today was the strongly indicated election of A. A. Jones, the democratic candidate in New Mexico,N who was leading his re- publican opponent, Frank A. HubbeIl, by majority which democratic lead CTS regarded as safe
 An unusual feature of the result is the election of the first woman to congress. Miss Jeanette Rankin, re- publican, apparently having bean elected in Montana
 How House is Divided.
 The house, according to the latest returns. will he divided politically as follows:
Norwich bulletin., 1916-11-10

ersham, former attorney-general of the United States, Everett Colby of New Jersey, MT. Hughes, Chairman Wilcox and George W. Perkins of New York, preparations were being made to begin legal proceedings for recounts in states where the results were close.
 Chairman Wilcox included Califor- nia, New Mexico. North Dakota, New Hampshire and Minnesota in his list of states where recounts undoubtedly would be demanded
 Democratic headquarters was not behind the republicans in preparing for legal developments. Chairman Mc- Cormick conferred with Alton B. Par ker, former deEocratic candidate for president, Morgan J. O'Brien, Delan- cey Nicoll and John B. Stachfield, all prominent New York lawyers. It was evident that if the election was to be taken into the courts the legal giants of both parties were being marShalled for such a battle royal as the United States never has seen.
 100000 Popular Plurality.
 In an official statement the demo- cratic national committee claimed PIP votes for President Wilson and a pop ular plurality of from 100000 to 300,- 900.
 ITO say there will be a contest" declared the statement, "is an insult to the intelligence of the American people"
 It probably will still be another day before the full results are known from any of the four states left in the doubtful column and certainly not un- til there has been an official count in New Hampshire and possibly in Min nesota. As MT. Hughes is leading in Minnesota and West Virginia and a change in these states could in no wise affect the result there may be no demand for extraordinary haste to bring about the recount demanded
 Practically all the states where the result is cloSe are carried in the Hughes column and for that reason the democrats profess to be not appre- hensive that any overturning could come from a recount.

 IN WEST VIRGINIA
Practically All Missing Districts Are
 Located in the Mountains.

Charleston, W. Va. Nov. 9.-During the last A hours Hughes continued to maintain a lead in the neighborhood of 2,000, but early tonight when remote districts began to come in the vote for Hughes was further increased.
 Practically all the missing districts now are located in the mountains, where communication is difficult In many instances there are no telephones and in several. no railroads, trolleys, telephone or telegraph. These pre- cincts are take nto the county seats in automobiles where it is possible to travel the roads and in not few in- stances the vote is brought over the mountains on muleback. For these reasons it is not expected that the complete vote for the state can be ob- tained for several days.
