In New York' Mayoralty contest,
f with 21 election dlatrtct missing, are
I as follow:
Gaynor. Democrat. 240,713; Ban
7 card. Republican-Fusion. 175,902;
4 Hearst, Independent, 130.360.
Gaynor plurality, 71,363.
NEW YORK, Nov. i Tammany elected
another Mayor of Greater New York to
day but lost Its grip on city finances.
William J. Gaynor, of Brooklyn, swept
the five boroughs to victory as Mayor
by at least 70.000 plurality, defeating- Otto
T. - Bannard. Republican-Fusion, and Wil
liam R. Hearst, Independent.
He failed, however, to carry his ticket
with him and the Republican-Fusion
forces will control absolutely the Board
of Estimates and Apportionment, which
will disburse approximately $1,000,000,000
during; the administration. This Is more
than a half defeat for Tammany, for the
control of the Board of Estimate was
one of the principal issues of the cam
paign. Whitman to Succeed Jerome.
In addition, the Republican-Fusion lets
elected Charles S. Whitman District At
torney of New York County. He de
feated George C. Battle. Dem., by at least
13.000 plurality, and John S. Shea for
Sheriff over C. D. Sullivan, Dem., by
approximately 10.000.
'Reform control of the Board of Esti
mates is assured by the election of the
following' Republican-Fusion nominees:
Controller, William D. Prendergast.
defeating Robert R- Moore by approxi
mately 65.000.
President of the Board of Aldermen,
John P. Mitchell, defeating John F. Gal
vin by approximately 54,000.
President of the Borough of Manhattan,
George HcAntny, defeating Joseph Haag
by approximately IS, 000.
President of the Borough of Brooklyn.
Alfred Esteers, defeating John X. Mc
Cooey by approximately 14.000.
In addition to the foregoing. Indications
point to the election of the following
Republican-Fusion nominees:
President of the Borough of Bronx,
Cyrus C. Miller, defeating A. M. Murphy.
President of the Borough of Richmond,
George Cromwell, defeating MeCormack.
Safe Majority on Board.
The contest for these two last-named
borough presidencies was close, but latest
returns favored the Republican-Fusion
nominees, while in Queens (Long Island)
Lawrence Geisser (Ind. and anti-Tammany)
was elected.
With a total of 16 votes in the Board of
Estimates the Republican-Fusion forces,
even counting out the election of the
borough presidents of the Bronx and
Staten Island, will yet have 11, or two
more than the necessary majority.
Hearst, once defeated In his contest for
the Mayoralty against Mcdellan In 1905.
went down again today with a total of
less than 150.000, as against approximately
145,000 for Gaynor and 174,000 for Bannard.
Gaynor Leads by 70,000.
With but 38 election districts out of !
167J missing, the total vote of the Greater
City for the three candidates was as fol
lows: Gaynor. 243.S70: Bannard, 173.399:
Hearst. 145,549. This gives Gaynor a lead
of 70.471 over Bannard and 95.3S1 over
Hearst.
Personal Liberty Candidate.
Judge Gaynor. who now becomes Mayor
of Greater New York, was elected on
the strength of his personal record as a
Jurist and his stand for personal liberty
and a liberal Sunday. Although the
Tammany candidate. he maintained
throughout the campaign that no boss
shall dictate to him. and one of his fa
vorite remarks was that. If there was to
be any swallowing between him and the
Tiger he ultimately would be found on
the outside.
Gaynor was prominently mentioned as
a Democratic Vice-Presidential possibility
last year, and In ISM he declined the
Democratic nomination for Governor. He
has been a near-candidate for Mayor of
New York for years, but, as he expressed
himself to his friends, he wanted to be
ure of election to be elected Mayor and
then Governor, with a view of becoming
President of the United States.
Target of Bitter Assaults.
Backed by Tammany In the campaign
Just ended. Gaynor was bitterly assailed
by pulpit and bar, not to mention the
attacks of Hearst, who repudiated him
after having agreed to support him. and

Paintings Burns to the Ground
In Ijos Angeles.
LOS ANGELES. CSl, Nov. 1 (Spe
cial.) The residence of J. C. Drake, with
its wealth of art treasures and Its beautl
ful architecture, at 2715 South Hoover
street, was destroyed by fire yesterday.
Ten brave young women, students of
the Girls' Collegiate School, formed
themselves Into a fire brigade and res
cued heirlooms valued at 310,000.
Before the fire was extinguished three
other magnificent residences in the Im
mediate neighborhood, the homes of F.

H. Bush, caught fire and only after a
warm fight were the buildings saved.
When the fire alarm was turned in
shortly after 1 o'clock. Miss Gene Par
sons and Miss Carrie Dennen, the prin
cipals at the exclusive Girls' Collegiate
School, dismissed the students.
The young girls entered the burning
building, tieing handkerchiefs over their
mouths, and returned a moment later
from the smoke-filled house, carrying
paintings, silver and furniture.
For 16 minutes the heroic young women,
assisted now by policeman and other men
from the neighborhood, worked like
beavers carrying out the articles of value
on the first floor of the blazing struc

Tunnel Cave-in on Southern Pacific
Delays All Traffic.
REDDING. Cal., Nov. 2. The Shasta
route of the Southern Pacific is still
blocked by the cave-in of tunnel No. 1,
which occurred yesterday near Coram,
while a freight train was passing through
the tunnel and resulted in the death of
two men.

hill, which is steep and slippery. It takes
from four to eight hours tr, make a
transfer from one train to another.
According to railroad officials on the
ground, the cave-in Is much more exten
sive than at first believed. It was found

tance of 130 feet. It is believed that It
will be Friday or Saturday before the
tunnel is cleared and traffic can be re
sumed through it.
HANG PREACHER IN EFFIGY
Minnesota 'Wets Take Revenge for
War on Licenses.

cial.) Rev. Grant B. Wilder, pastor of
the First Congregational Church to this
city, was hanged in effigy on the front
porch of the parsonage last night. The

mit freeholders to vote on the question of
license at the next 'regular election.
Since coming to Fairmont, Rev. Mr.
Wilder has taken an active part against
the liquor Interests and the affront of
fered him is generally attributed to those
whom he opposed.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2. After three
years of a reform government which fol

Labor administration of 1906-07, partial
returns from today's municipal election
up to midnight indicate that the city has

Graft Question Dominant.
While many Issues of local importance
entered into the campaign, the continuance

was the dominant one. Mr. Heney went
before the people frankly on this one Is

course in the sensational trials growing
out of the exposures of. municipal cor
ruption in the so-called "boodling board"
of Supervisiors.
He promised from the stump that,, if
elected, he would carry on the graft
prosecutions with unabating vigor.
Fickert Wants Results.
Mr. Fickert as pens that he- will prose-
cut only such of those cases as after
careful investigation, he Is "convinced

Mr. Fickert is a young man and a new
figure in local politics. He was for four
years Assistant United States District At

Commission and as Civil Service Commis

public office. He was a candidate for

SECTIONAL STRIFE SHOWN
County Bordering on Puget Sound,
Nominally Heavily Republican,
Gives Substantial Vote to the
Democratic Candidate.
TACOMA, Wash., Nov. 2. With W. W.
McCredie, of Vancouver, Wash., the Re
publican nominee, leading by substantial
majorities throughout the southern part
of the Second Congressional District, in
dications at a late hour tonight are that
he is elected over Ernest Lister, of Ta
coma, the Democratic candidate, by 2000
to 3000 majority, to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Francis W. Cushman.
Latest returns from Pierce County, the
home of Mr. Lister, the most populous
county in the district and a Republican
stronghold, indicate that the Democrats
will carry it by a majority of 500. Ta
coma's majority fdr Lister is 806.
South Strong for McCredie.
To offset this Judge McCredie has sub
stantial majorities in the other counties
of the district and it appears that his
election is assured.
It appears the contest was waged along
sectional rather than party lines, the op
position to Judge McCredie appearing In
the counties bordering on Puget Sound,
The Democrats charge that Judge Mc
Credie. who owns both baseball clubs at
Portland, would be more friendly to the
Columbia River country than to the
northern part of the district.
A light vote was cast at today's elec
tion, rain keeping the voters at home in
the rural districts.
The Second District Is normally Re
publican by a large majority, Mr. Cush
man receiving a plurality of more than
17,000 in the 1909 election.
I Knifed in Pierce County.
In the counties bordering on Puget
Sound Judge McCredie barely held his
own, but in the Southern counties, nearer
his home, the gains were so material that
there is little doubt but that his ma
jority will exceed 3000.
Over 16,000 votes were polled in Pierce
County the last election, but today's vote
will not reach 7000. This has caused sur
prise in all quarters, and many are In
clined to lay its cause to the fact that
Judge McCredie made no speaking cam
paign. They argue that if political ral
lies had been held a full vote would have
been drawn out.
Will Mac Rae, secretary to Judge Mc
Credie, who has made a splendid fight for
the baseball magnate, was surprised at
the result in Pierce County, but satisfied
with conditions over the district.

GRIEF PURSUES LANDLORDS
Flatters Form Combine to Fight
Owners Babies One Question.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2. (Special.) A legal
fight to establish the right of Chicago
babies to inhabit an apartment-house has
been started by Rolla R. Longnecker, an
attorney, and organizer of the Tenants
Protective Association. The organization,
which is still in its Infancy, was formed
to fight landlords on various grounds.
Some of the planks in the platform of
the new organization are:
The baby has more right in an apartment-house
than a dog or a cat. We will
prove that under law.
A landlord has not any real right to
collect rent 30 days in advance. Rent
should be C. O. D.
Steam heat or any other heat should
not be turned off on a given date, such
as May 1.
Landlords should be made to sprinkle
the streets in front of their houses, so
.'flatters" would not have to spend most
of their time sweeping.
Many Chicago landlords bar. babies
from their apartment-houses, and this
receives particular attention from the
new association.
WAR ON IMPORTERS' GRAFT

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3. 4,Bak up

the Treasury Department and its cus
toms collectors just now, and the Act
ing Secretary today contributed another
chapter In the Government's fight against
the abuse of- the privilege of allowance
for decay while fruit is being held sub
ject to entry.
Investigation has shown that the im
porters in many cases leave the fruit at
the Government docks until they are
ready to deliver it, then enter it wlh a
claim for allowance for decay, but sell
the goods regardless of the Government's
allowance -for impairment. .
Collector Loeb is advised in today's in
structions that where no entry Is made by
the importer for perishable fruit within
48 hours after the entry of the vessel,
such fruit should be treated as unclaimed
and sold.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2. (Special.) In a

Cullom has suggested to Secretary Knox
that Charles W. Fairbanks, ex-Vicc-President,
be appointed Minister to China,
and that the 'appropriateness' of the
appointment has been universally ap
proved by every one to whom it has been
suggested. It is also said that the friends
of Mr. Fairbanks believe he would ac
cept the post if it were offered him.
The dispatch continues: "Mr. Fairbanks
has- recently spent a month in Pekln
where he was received with unusual
honors, the same that would be conferred
upon a royal visitor.

"AH reports from there agree that he
made a most favorable Impression upon
the Princes and Mandarins with whom he
came in contact. He became deeply in
terested in the Chinese situation and has
written to friends in this country con
cerning the participation by the people
of the United States in the development
of the Chinese Empire.
"Many communications encourage
friends of Mr. Fairbanks and those who
are anxious for a proper representation
of this Government st Pekin, to believe
that he would accept the position and
grasp the opportunity It would, offer him
to pn&mote the welfare of both countries.

"Hitherto when his name has been
mentioned in connection with the British
Embassy, he has been very positive in
his refusal to even consider the subject.
But the Chiness situation would undoubt
edly appeal to him very strongly.
"Furthermore, it is probable that the
Chinese Government would agree to ele
vate their mission here to the rank of
an Embassy in order to secure so dis
tinguished an addition as Mr. Fairbanks
to the diplomatic coterie at Pekin."
