ELECTION RESULTS
TANGLED BY DEATH.
Republicans in Philadelphia
Try in Vain to Elect Sub

By the Associated Press.

PHILADELPHIA, November A.
il its efforts yesterday to elect
Frederick j. Shoyer district attorney
Of Philadelphia by means of stick
ers" after former Judge John NJ.
Patterson, it's regular nominee, had
been reported dying after an opera
ton for gall stone collie.
Mr.. Patterson died less than five
hours after the polls closed. Complete
returns today from all of the city's
48 wards showed that he had received
167,526 votes as against 123,616 for
Shoyer. William F. Brennan, the
Democratic candidate, was a poor
third, with 25.679.
Likely to Go to Courts.
The situation, unprecedented in
the city's history, was expected to
go to the courts for decision. Legal
opinions differed, some lawyers main
taining that Samuel z. Rotan, the
incumbent, would retain office until
the next municipal election, two
years hence; others, chiefly friends
of Mr.. Shoyer, declared that the
board of judges would appoint Mr..
Rotan's successor, while still others
said this power rested with Gov.
Pinchot.
Voting had been heavy before
word of Mr.. Patterson's relapse
reached the Republican leaders.
"Stickers" bearing Shoyer's name
were rushed to every election dis
trict for distribution among the
voters, but the action came too late
to stem the Patterson landslide.
Under ordinary conditions Patterson
would have led his Democratic op-
ponent by more than 265,000 votes.
Decided Republican Victory.
Overwhelming majorities were run
up by the Republican candidates for
other city and county offices. Judge
Benjamin H. Remshaw, whose de-
feat for the Republican nomination
for judge of the Municipal Court
led to charges Of fraud and the arrest
of a score of election officers, and
Mrs. Violet Fahnestock, Philadel-
phia'S first woman magistrate, were
among those defeated.
Jesse E. B. Cunningham of Harris
burg, Republican candidate for judge
Of the Superior Court, the only State
wide office voted for in Pennsylvania
yesterday, was elected by substantial
plurality over William c. Mcclure
Of Johnstown, his Democratic oppo-
nent. Cunningham also was the
nominee of the Prohibition and So
ctalist parties, while MCGUIRE was the
candidate of the Labor party as we'll

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, November 4-Defeat of
the Ku klux Klan in the Detroit non
partisan municipal election loomed to-
day as Mayor John w. Smith con-
tinued to pile up his lead over his
Klan-supported opponent, Charles
Bowles. With more than half Of the
city officially reported at the City Hall
early today, Smith had pushed his
early lead of 10000 votes to more
than 10000
In 392 of the 5S3 precincts in the
city, representing virtually all dis
tricts of Detroit, Smith had 90.225
votes and BowleS had 71,21T. Although
there were sufficient votes unreported
to wipe out the Smith lead. it was
generally conceded Smiths gains in
recognized Bowles strongholds made
this improbable.
Smith based his campaign for re-
election on his record of the last year,
he having been elected to fill a va
canCy, while Bowles charged that De
troit was known as a "wide-open
town." and promised to clear up" the
city Bowles denied that he was a
member Of the Klan, but that organi-
Zation openly supported him.
Second Defeat for BowIes.
The campaign marked the second
defeat for Bowles. He came from
obscurity at the special election last
year to make a good race for the NOM
ination without any newspaper sup
port and with little advertising. He
was defeated for the nomination by a
slight majority, and when he later
ran as a sticker candidate defeated
Joseph A. Martin, acting mayor, who
had beaten him for the nomination.
but was second to Smith.
Bowles and Smith were the only
candidates at the primary election
this year Two daily newspapers sup
porting Smith charged Bowles was
a Klan candidate, after which the
Klan openly announced their support
Of Bowles and five candidates for the
city council. Handbills and printed
matter, some of which was signed by
the klan, We're distributed throughout
the city before the election, and open
meetings were arranged by the Klan,
in which Bowles' candidacy was sup
ported.

Mild in Comment
On Hindy's Victory

Berlin. April 27.-(By A. P.)-The
election of Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg has up to the present failed to
produce any untoward reaction in the
popular mind. Editorial comment in
the organs of both political groups in
dicates a desire to avoid partisan re-
ordinations, as President-elect Won
Hindenburg enjoys the benefit of the
law for the defense of the republic"
and this automatically brings a cessa-
tion of political hostilities so far as
his personality is concerned.
The so-called "sentimentality which
was on display yesterday is naught
but a reawakened idealism. without
which any nation is doomed to go un-
der" is the opinion of the monarchial
Kreuze Zeitung.
Vorwaeres, the Socialist organ,
sums up the outcome of the election in
these words: ''An individual, not a
cause, was victorious on April &C."
War profiteering, socialism, anti
semitism. and religious bias figured in
the campaign slogans. and unquestion-
ably attracted fresh support to Won
Hindenburg from those who usually
do not vote. The new president will
be notified by the federal election
commissioner of the official count Of
the votes early next week, when ar
rangements for his formal Inaugural
tion will be decided upon. His induc-
tion into Office will be marked by a
ceremonious display and it is planned
to have him driven from the reich
stag to the executive mansion under
military escort.
