cut in favor OF France and william
H. Lawrence, the republican candi-
dates. Antony Dimarco was being cut

cinct Of the fifth ward had been cast
by 8 o'clock. The democrats have a
plurality Of 2ss in this precinct on the
registration showing.
Democrats EIated.
Democrats everywhere were highly
elated by the showing that was being
made in the early vote. They could
not estimate the way they would come
out in the break of the cuts. but they
took into consideration the fact that
they have an affiliated majority OF
$4,000 in the city.
The candidates themselves-at least
tho senatorial aspirants. William
Cabell Bruce, democrat. and Senator
Joseph l. France, republican-both
have made vigorous campaigns and
