Richard w. Lawrence. Republican
ohairmans in The Bronx. put up q
whale of a campaign for his ticket
which was picked with the aid of the
Independents, but could not stem the
Democratic tide. The best run was
made by Mr.. Levine. candidate for
Borough President. Next was Patrick
j. Kane. until recently a Democratic
district leader. He was defeated, how
ever, by Edward ]. Flynn, who ran on
The Democratic ticket.

Wenzel. Jr., his Republican opponent.
while Edward w. Cox, Democratic cam

IT, Manhattan did well for Gilroy.
tweuty-six election districts showing him
running ahead OF Hubert by more than
six to one.
That the negro vote was largely for
the Democratic ticket was shown by the
fact that In many Of the election dis

The Socialists have elected number
OF Assemblymen and several members OF
the Board OF Aldermen.
While the Democrats are rejoicing
over what they hail as great Victory.

are not altogether happy over the pros

the effect of the influence of william r.
Hearst as a menace to the Tam

6f.d are willing TO believe that during his
next term he may try 20 form other all-

Mayor George w. Mcclellan bitten by
political ambition, tried 20 build uo a
personal machine In opposition to Tam
many.
Mayor Hyian declared on the eve of
election that II would be a referendum
