Democrats May Win Albany
Senate and Republicans
the House.
EACH SIDE CLAIMS BOTH
Caulfield Succeeds in Kings
Henry Sage Defeated, Also
George Fearon.

Control of the state Legislature was
undecided early this morning. The
Democrats may have won the Senate.
The Assembly may possibly have gone
Republican. 1t was so close that both
sides claimed both houses. and evil
IDENTITY the majority either way was to
be limited to one or two votes.
The Republicans have won twenty
two seats in the Senate; the Demo-
Gratis have twenty-one. There are
eight districts to be heard from and
several were doubtful. Twenty six
votes is majority in the upper House.
James r. Caulfeld was the only
Republican who slipped through the
hurricane alive in Kings. All the New
York nominees for Senate appear to
have won. Schuyler Meyer this morn
ing was uncertain as to whether he
had won. Henry Sage did not win in
Albany. George Fearon lost in SYRIA
cuse.
If the Democrats win four OF the
eight missing districts they will have
the upper branch which controls the
power of confirming appointments by
the Governor.
The Assembly is almost as close
Sxty-nine Republicans are elected, but
they are all the upstate men. The Demo
Gratis have elected three. They
have made many gains upstate. incud-
ing two in Westchester. Buffalo. Syra.

Blakeley, one of the oldest members
lost his seat in Westchester. r. Il

The thirty-eight missing districts are
early all in the Metropolitan section
Although the Republicans appeared tC
be we'll in the lead. the Democrat
hoped that their sweeps here woull
carry all the doubtful districts.
The Republicans need only six votes
ia addition to those already won to civ,
them the necessary majority.
The prospect early to-day was tha'

each control one house.

Gregorio Logana Laid Low
During italian Fight
in Brooklyn.
TWO OTHERS WOUNDED
Witnesses Unable to Tell PO-
lice What Caused the
Trouble.

Joseph Busardo Of $50 Clinton street
Brooklyn, a drug clerk, walked up the
stairs of 220 Columbia street, Brook
lyn, last night about $3.50 o'clock
and entered the Tosca Restaurant, one
of the most popular of the italian
restaurants of the district. He found
fifteen men sitting at the tables cat
ing, among them Gregorio Iagana
OF 1913 President street and Samuel
Pellegrino of 234 Columbia street, a
brother of the owner of the Tosca..
According to the police of the Hamil-
ton avenue station, who sent reserves
to quell the riot that followed, Busardo
drew q revolver the instant he stepped
into the place and began shooting.
Lagana, the police said, also drew a
revolver. Others in the restaurant
also are believed to have had guns. At
least fifteen shots were fired, chairs
and other furniture overturned and
smashed. and when the police had
come and restored order they found
Lagana lying dead at the foot of the
Union street entrance TO the restau-
rant. Busardo was i'm the restaurant
kitchen with a bullet wound in his
back and Pcllegrino had been shot In
tho right arm.

Police Take Dozen Men.


The restaurant looked as though it
had been visited by cyclone, and
wren the police reserves arrived the
street outside was thronged by an ex-
cited crowd of Italians, already out and
celebrating the election, and attracted
to the restaurant by the sound of the
shots and the crash of the fight. The
crowd was dispersed. and more than
a dozen men. including Busardo and
Pellegrlno were. sent to the Hamilton
avenue station TO be questioned by de-
tectives. More than thirty patrolmen
from the station house and from Police
Headquarters were sent to the place
before order was restored.
The detectives said they had not been
able to learn the cause of the shooting.
Patrolnan Daniel Sullivan. on fire duty,
was walking near the restaurant when
he heard It, He ran to the place at
once and up the stairs. and was almost
to the restaurant when he saw Lagana
staCger from the door and run down the
Union street stairs. There was another
man ahead of Lagana. the policeman
said, and this man was also wounded,
hut could not be found later. Lagana
kept ahead of the policeman until he
had reached the foot of the stairs, whore
he fell. and was dead few minutes
later.
When the detectives got there they
found .3S caliber revolver lying on a
windowsill In the restaurant. a .32 cali
ber automatic pistol in a fruit basket
IN the kitchen, and 80 caliber
revolver on the kitchen floor. Eight
shots had been fired from these weapons
altogether The witnesses examined by'
the police profess to know nothing Of
the shooting. Most Of them said they
had been eating in the place when
Busardo entered. and that the shooting
began shortly afterward.

Practically 90 per cent of
the o5,OOO,OOO barrels Of
portland cement shipped
last year was delivered in
returnable cotton sacks.
To supply users of cement
promptly, the industry must
have about 2OO,OOO,OOO
sacks either on hand or in
use.
The sack method of ship
ping is most convenient.
There are four sacks to a
barrel. Each sack contains
% pounds of !cement-a
cubic foot. And a cubic
foot is a handy volume in
proportioning concrete
mixtures.
When cement is shipped, thesacks
are billed to the purchaser. When
they are returned, they are bought
back at the same price if they are
in usable or repairable condition.
This involves much work in
checking, cleaning, sorting and
repairing.
But in spite Of the fact that every
good cement sack is redeemable,
100000 Of the sacks shipped
everyyear fail to come back-aloss
Of nearly $5,OOODOO year at
present prices Of new sacks.
To replace these 'lost, strayed or
stolen" sacks requires annually
over 10000 bales Of cotton. 1t re-
quires that the textile industry
weave strip Of cloth 30 inches
wide and 1900 miles long. Ii
means that 1900 looms are kept
working full time for year.
Thousands Of sacks returned to
the cement mills for redemption
are damaged, yet accepted for
credit, if they can be repaired.
This repair is done by the cement
manufacturer at his own expense.
A medium sized plant shipping,
say / ,O0O, 900 barrels of cement
year, has to repair an average of
5000 sacks per day from among
those returned for credit. This
keeps 6 people constantlyworking
at rapidly operated electric sew
ing machines. In a million barrel
year plant, u people are con-
stantly employed sorting, counting.
repairing and otherwise caring for
returned sacks so that they may
again be used.
AT the present time $50, ,o00,o 900
would be conservative estimate
Of the investment which the ce-
ment industry has in cotton sacks
Sacks are one Of the lesser, but
nevertheless important items in
the cement industry.
