Mayor of New York.
and William "R. Hearst, standing as the
rominee of the Municipal Ownership
League, a new factor in New York pol
IMes. came within a few thousand votes
of being olocted Mayor.
Jerome's Great Triumph.
Jerome triumph was almost entirely
u personal one,, and showed that arr ap
peal may be made successfully to vot
ers on tho strength of personal hon
esty and persistent, systematic denun
ciation of graft and political bossism.
Mr. Jerome's campaign was conducted
with a special opposition to Charles F.
Murphy, loader of Tammany Hall, and
his reputed, wealth, and the resuit prac
tically Is a defeat for Murphy as -well
as for Osborne.
Bird S. Coler was elected Borough
President of Brooklyn on the Municipal
Ownership ticket and Hearst ' carried
that borough by a plurality of 15,682.
The returns -up taj.1 o'clock indicat
ed that McCloJlan'g pluralities in Man
aattan. arid the Bronx .and Richmond,
-would more than overcome the Hearst
pluralities in Brooklyn and Queen's
Boroughs.
Each Party Loses Equally.
An analysis of the vote for Mayor
shows that Hearst polled a little more
than 200.000 votes, and that apparently
these wore drawn almost equally from
the .Democratic and Republican parties.
McCiellan's vote Is probably 110,000 small
er than his vote two years ago, while
Ivlns vote was about 123;0Q0 smaller than
Low's vote of two years ago. These flf
ures, however, may not be entirely cor
rect, owing to the fact that a number
of Republicans probably voted for Mc
Clellan in order to "aid in the defeat o
Hearst.
- Hearst's large vote shows . that the
Municipal Ownership League must be
reckoned with as a factor In the city's
politics. Coler' election as. president of
the Borough of Brooklyn gives the league
representation on the Board of Estimate
and Apportionment, which has cqhtrol ot
the city expenditures. It is estimated
that this board will direct the outlay of
JSOO.000.000' during the next four years.
Hearst Scared Tammany.
Less than a month ago.' when Hearst
accepted the nomination of the Municipal
Ownership League. ' McClellan'.s re-election
was regarded as a certainty, and. the.
Mayor himself declared that he intended
to make only a few speeches. With the
sudden outburst of enthusiasm for' Hearst,
however, the situation changed so swift
ly that the Democratic leaders were
startled from the repose of quiet confi
dence to engage in one of its hardest
fights. Hearst 'wound up his campaign
Sunday night at Madison Square Gardon
with a gardon crowded to the doors, and
tons of thousands of men standing out
side for hours cheering, for the Municipal
Ownership candidate. It was felt then,
that the vote would bo close, and that
Tammany must fight.
The weather jof today was Ideal, aid-;
ing greatly in" the polling of a large
vote. Thore was little disorder, and,
although many arrosts. were made, they
frequently were due . to jl misunder
standing of clorical .errors, and only
a few men were held for trial. Moro
splitting of tickets probably was done
than ever before, yet the voting was
unusually rapid.
An Incident of the day was the de
sertion of several hundreds of Mr.
Hoarst's poll watchers, who went over
to the opposition.
Those Who Arc Elected.
At midnight the 'Indications were that
the following ticket had boon Elected:
Mayor Goorge B. McClollnn, Domo

Jerome's -View of Result.
District Attorney Jerome Issued a
statement tonight In which he said:
I wan certain that the people Would not
back up the attempt of the homes to force
mo from oface. Coming as It dts Ktralght
from the hands of the people. In spite of
tho opposition of the bosio and maohlnes.
my election in peculiarly gratifying. The
District Attorney's office will go on for four
years more under my direction, under tho
same nystem that has provallod for the past
four year.
There Ik nothing mow to b Bald except
that It was a teet of strength between
corrupt bows oil one fide and an aroused
public opinion on the other. There in no
trifling with the -people 'When they have been
roused, and my election Is a lesson that tho
1okhc8 will not oon forget.
Mayor McCIcllan, upon learning that
he had boon rc-oleclcd, issued the follow
ing statomont:
"The result of the election shows mo
more plainly than ever my duty to the
people.. With" God's help, I will discharge
It to the bcHtof my ability. I shall keep
every promise made before the election."
Mr. Ivlns said early fn the oven Ing;
"I really have little to say except" that
1 am the happiest candidate, you ever
saw."
Demonstration for Jerome.
A great demonstration greeted Mr
Jerome when the fact that ho was elect
ed was placed beyond all question. A
throng of men and woroon Jillftd tho lobby
at the District Attorney's headquarters,
cheering and waving flags and' handker
chiefs and calling for a speech. In re
sponse Mr. Jerome said:
"I would be glad to express my heart
felt thunks for your support. We were ;
fighting to get back Into .our -hands ihe
power taken from us. It would scorn from
the last returns that we have takon It
back. All I can .say Is -that yqu have
trusted me and I will serve you as faith
fully as I have done In the pasC"
Returns received up to midnight Indi
cate that the new Assembly will consist
of 110 Republicans. 34 Democrats and Z
Municipal Ownership members. The last
Assembly had 104 Republicans to 46 Dem
ocrats. Jerome Detects Frauds.
According to the Tribune, fraud charges
were made last night by supporters of
Hearst and Jerome. Definite charges that
official counts of votes In the Sixth and
Eighteenth Assembly districts had been
withheld were made at Jerome's, headquar
ters. Assistant District Attorney Rand,
with several attaches of the District At
torney's office, went post haste to the
Sixth and Eighteenth districts and. found
that ballots that had been counted at 6
o'clock had not been officially reported.
Assistant District Attorney Dennlson was
sent to police headquarters to get aid
from Commissioner McAdoo. The Jerome
men say that the most flagrant frauds
have been perpetrated to try to accom
plish the defeat of Jcrobie.
"Honor" of Tammany at Stake.
. From Tammany Hall, Charles F. Mur
phy, shortly before 11 o'clock, sent out
word to every leader In the city that the
honor of the organization was at stake
and every vote for McClellan must be
counted. He told them to overlook noth
ing and spare no expense in getting the
facts to Tammany as arly as possible.

Scrimmages at Polls.
Contrary to general expectations, there
was no very serious disturbances In the
city today. There were, however, many
small scrimmages at polling places, espe
cially In the more thickly settled wards,
where the Republican organization Ls
very strong, and where the City party
put up a most determined-fight. .The po
lice department was at all times master
of the situation, and wherever troubls
was started It was quickly stopped. Some
of these disturbances blossomed into
pmall rallies, but after the smoke had
cleared away It'- was found that no one
was seriously wounded. .

END IS VERY UNCERTAIN.
Slow Count Canned by Scratched
Tickets Throughout State.
COLUMBUS. O.. Nov. 7. At 11 o'clock
tonight, the result of th election In Ohio
might be still considered In doubt, al
though .the. Domocratlc leaders claimed
the election of Pu titson and the entire
Democratic ticket by sjibstantia! plurali
ties, while the Republicans simply refuse
to concede such a claim. Insisting that the
returns were Insufficient at that hour to
Indicate anything except, that the voting
has been very heavy, and that the amount,
of scratching had made counting very
Plow. In the cities the Republican loss
exceeded 100 to the precinct, but as the
loss outside of the large cities wa?, so
far as reported, only about 30 per cent,
there was no certainty that the loss would
run high enough to wipe out the 230.000
Republican plurality with which compari
sons were made. Less than 300 of the 42CO
precincts In the state have been heard
from at 11 o'clock.
Returns Arc Fragmentary.
At midnight. Chairman Dick gave the
following statement to the - Associated
Press:
"The election returns are fragmentary
and meager at this hour, delay being1 due
to the large number of candidates and; a
great deal of local ticket scratching.
While R Is not practicable yet to approx
imate definite figures. Indications clearly
point to the re-eloctlon of Governor Her
rlck and the entire Republican state tick
et by safe pluralities.
"CHARLES F. W. DICK. Chairman."
It had been expected that. In view of
the bitter light that was made on Gov
ernor Herrlck personally, he would -run
behind his ticket, but up to midnight he
was running two votes to the precinct
ahead of his rival Republican candidate
for Lieutenant-Governor, jvho'ls expected
to poll the average party vote. If this Is
continued throughout the state. It would
Indicate that the bitterness of the attacks
on Herrlck had apparently reacted in his
favor and gained him votes Instead of
losing them..
The early reports, though very meager,

ji
were so strongly In favor of Pattlson that
his election was bulletined and announced
In many of the extras, but as fuller re
turns came In showing reduced ratio of
gains, the Republicans became more hope
ful, and the Democrats refused to give
out any statements, although they still
maintained that they had gained a notable
victory- Early In the night reports from
Cincinnati were to the effect that Ham
ilton County, which had been counted on
by'the Republicans to give 20.000 plurality
for Herrlck. had gone for Pattlson. but at
midnight a private message from George
B. Cox to Governor Herrlck announced
that Hamilton County had given the Go"
crnor 3X0 plurality. The 000 or more
given by Cuyahoga County for Pattlson
was close to what had been anticipated
by Republican Chairman Dick.
As to the Legislature. little In the way
of news has been obtainable tonight, the
Interest In the state contest and the long
delay in counting the vote serving to sup
press reports on everything below Governor.
LOUISVILLE IS DEMOCRATIC
Paul C Barth Elected Mayor by
Turbulent Election.
LOUISVILLI3. Nov. 7. One hundred and
forty-two precincts out of 1S4 in the city
of Louisville give Paul C. Barth. Demo
cratic nominee for Mayor. 15,337. and
O'Neal, Fusion, 12.973. Barth's pluralityy
2364.
.Indications are that the Fusionlsts 'may
elect a county Judge and one leglslajtoc
In " Louisville and Jefferson County wiOr
another legislative race in" doubt. Charges
of extensive fraud are made by the Fu
sionLrts against the Democratic city ad
ministration, arid the Fusion managers
state that a contest may be made in the
courts. Several clashes occurred during
the day, two political workers recerying
slight pistol wounds and a large number.
Including several prominent citizens, be
ing clubbed or arrested.
Elections were held In the state for 100
scats In th Legislature. The complex
Ion of the Legislature will be practically
unchanged and the Democrats' will have
a good working majority with which to
choose, a successor to Sana tor J. CT-S.k
Blackburn.
About a round dozen of prominent citi
zens and a number of lesser lights who
worked for the Fusion ticket were ar
rested by the police. It 13 estimated that
a fair election was either totally or par
tially prevented In one-fourth of the 375
polling places In the city of Louisville.
A number of persons were Injured in
rows, the most serious of which occurred
at Eighth and -Market streets, where one
Democratic worker was shot and four
prominent citizens severely clubbed.
