Court Bench Go Down to
Defeat Before Republican
Nominees in New York. +
COOLIDGE REELECTED
IN MASSACHUSETTS
G. 0. P. Nominee for Governor
Wins in Kentucky, But Re-
suits in New Jersey and
Maryland Are Still in Doubt.

New York, Nov. 4.-Tammany hall
apparently went down to defeat in
the municipal election today. All
three of its candidates for the SUI
preme court bench seem to have
lost.
With returns lacking from 223 dis
tricts out of 948 in the First judicial
district Justice, ]. E. Newburger,
who was denied a denomination by
the democrats and then placed in
the field by the republicans, had
l25,7l3 votes, while Irwin Inter
myer, 80 years old. his opponent, had
1901. Mai. Philip J. McCook, the
other anti -Tammany candidate. had
107,326 and Justice Robert L. Luce,
94,193.
In the Second judicial district, with
204 districts lacking out of o54. A. l..
Squiers, republican, had 124,5o4 and
George J. S. Dowling, democrat,
l10,52l.
Moran Defeated.
An official count probably will be
necessary 10 ucLcTIHllle WHctHeI
Robert L. Moran, the Tammany
candidate, or r. H. Laguardia, the
republican nominee, has been elected
president of the board of aldermen.
With 102 districts missing at Las
a. m. Moran, with $4,000 was lead
ing by 300 votes.
The democrats conceded that one
factcr in the Judiciary electicn was
the assault by William Randolph
Hearst upon Governor Smith and
the Tanmany candidates. Hearst
is credited with having stood spon-
sor for Mayor Hylan and there has
been no break between them, al
though the city administration has
remained at peace with the COVER
nor.
The socialists had predicted that
James O'Neill, their candidate for
aldermanic president, would poll
more votes than Morris Hillquit did
in te mayoralty contest in 1917 but
they failed to substantiate their
claim, although he had 1924 in
2,31O districts out of 2,567.
