"It was a Republican victory, un- der the auspices of the Democratic Party.'' This statement today by John A. Cornell. Jr, Democratic Town chairman, answered the mooted ques- ton of who, or what element won the election for Fred Atwater.
 Edward T, Hamilton, at one time mentioned as the Republican choice for mayor, was defeated for assessor by about a thousand votes, Despite this fact he appeared happy, He Is hold over for another year on the board of aldermen, He stated he was not anxious to be president of the board, an honor he once held, and seemed to believe that perhaps the change would be 8 good thing for the city, so long as the people seemed to want it so badly, He intimated that there would be no efforts to hinder the mayor-elect, upon the part of Re- publican alderman,

 In the warrant for his arrest, Ross berg is charged with burglary, al- lice headquarters, that the man prob ably stayed in the. automobile while his companions attempted to remove the whiskey from Dow's cellar. The quick getaway of the machine and its occupants appears to bear out this suppoaition, Rossberg's case was not heard in the city court today, being continued until Nov. 16. the same date as the scheduled trial Of Albert c, Dow, who is now being held on technical charges of manslaughter. Dow was released on his own recog- nizance Immediately after his arrest on the morning of the shooting,

 The arrest of Rossberg has brought out the fact that five men were ac- tually implicated in the attempted whisiey robbers One of the alleged brglars is dead. one is in cstoudy, and three others are at liberty. It was at frs! believed that only three men were connected with the affair but a careful police investigation resulted in the implication of two others Dow told the police that he saw only three men at tthe time Of the shooting.
