NEW YORK: The gubernatorial
race in New York has been the closest
In the history of the Empire state, anil
the contest is so close that on Wednes-
day morning It is possible that outly-
ing districts may change the result,
though hardly probable.
It is conservatively estimated that
Hushes, the republican candidate, will,
win over Heamt by a majority rang
ing from* 20,000 to 50,000.
A Washington dispatch says that
President -Roosevelt is greatly elate 1
the election of Hughes, as he
regarded Hearst's success as a nation-
al calamity. So interested in the re-
mit was he that he sent Secretary
Root into tho campaign, and he in
a sensational speech upon the presf-
Taggart Halks.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND.: National
Democratic Chairman Tom Taggart
said at 10 o'clock Tuesday night: "I
never thought Hearst would be elect-
ed. The public know what I think of
him. However I hope the rest of
the New York democratic vote has
pulled through.
"As to the
returns show excellent gqins '()r my
party. With the Hearst menace out
of the way the future looks bright
for democracy. Indiana of course has
gone republican, but probably not by
more than 20,000.'"
California Republican.
SACRAMENTO, CAL:: Returns
from San Francisco and other Impor-
tant points indicate that the repub-
licans elected James N. Gillette gov-
ernor over Theodore Bell, the demo-
cratic and union labor candidate, und
William H. Langdon, Independence
league nominee. The other candidates
for governor were James A. Blanch-
ard, prohibitionist; Carn Hrowne, peo-
ple's party, and Austin Lewis, social-
ist. Apparently the entire republican
ticket was successful.

CHICAGO; Republican State Chair-
man West Is now claiming the election
dent's authority denounced the Jour- „f (he Illinois republican ticket by a
nalist-politiclan as an accomplice in
the assassination of President McKin-

ma ter of conjecture, owing to the nar-
row margin by which Mr. Hughes
was elected.

NEW YORK: The result of the
elections in 42 states and three terri-
tories Indicate some surpj'ises, but
no grout general change up .to the
present time. Greatest Interest of
course centered in the election of
new national house of representatives
who will compose the lower body of
the sixty-eighth congress. The repub-
licans have again won. Incomplete re-
turns indicate their majority of 111 in
the last' house will be reduced one-
third. but they will still have enough
members to put through such legisla-
tion as they desire.
There were two real big surprises
in New York and in Pennsylvania.
In- New York the republicans were so
confident of electing their candidate
Charles E. Hughes, for governor, that
they offered odds of 4 and 5 to 1 on
his success and 2 to 1 that he would
receive more than 100,000. lie did
not get anv such figures. In fact,
for several hours the belief was gen
eral that he had been defeated, and as
it Is his plurality is hardly more than
20 000 althonch the corrected returns
from the great rural districts in the
state are still held back, and may
jump this figure considerably, when
t',e revised returns are available. .
Greater New York was loyal to Its
democratic principles, but It was im-
possible for it, to overcome the "ver-
dict of the cornfields," and once again
In the state has subdued the metrop-
olis The next legislature of the state
of New York will be republican as, al-
though the democrats made slight
Enlns , they cut but an Insignificant
figure in the result. •
Pennsylvania remains In the repub-
lican column. Edwin S. Stuart has de-
feated Lewis Emery, jr.. the fusion
ennd'date. bv a large plurality and the
republicans have been successful In
electing thoir candidates in most of
the big cities.
New England remains solidly renub-
llcan. Vermont, Rhode Island, Mas-
sachusetts and Connecticut elect re-
publican slate officials and republican
legislative bodies.
100,000 to 150,000. His information is
that the republicans have elected 42
out of 51 state senators, 88 out of
153 state representatives and 21 out
of 25 congressmen.
He declines as yet to say which of
the republican congressmen lie things
are defeated. Victory is claimed for
Congressmen Lorimer and Madden,
bittli republicans of. Chicago.
Cannon Wins in Election
DANVILLE: Incomplete returns in-
dicate Speaker Cannon's re-election
with a plurality slightly less than four
years ago. This is due to the ^arin
fight by the socialist labor party and
('has. G. Taylor, the democratic can-
didate. The campaign began with lit-
tle Indication of opposition, hut the
socialists nominated John Walker of
the Mine Workers and the democrats
placed Mr. Taylor in the field and
both' parties began an aggressive
fight.
Speaker Cannon and his friends say
the official returns will show that he
has received about the usual vote.
District Judge Assassinated.
HOUSTON. TEX.: District Judgo
Stanley Welsh was assassinated In
has bed at Rio Grande City Them
Is no clue to the assass^ . There has
been great excitement recently over
the election and it Is presumed the
assassination grew out of this in soma
way. Hangers have been rushed to the
scene.
Senator Penrose is Safe.
PHILADELPHIA: Eight hundred
and eighty-one districts out of 1,135
give Stuart 98,477! Emery 00,731;. Ro-
tan #4,041; Glbboney 74.781..

ate contains a majority favorable to
the re-election of Penrose as United

Joint Statehood Killed.
SANTA FE, N. M.: Joint statehood
for Arizona and New Mexico, one of
President Roosevelt's pet measures,
lias been overwhelmingly defeated by
the electors of Arizona voting against
the measure.
The proposition carried In New Mex-
ico by a small majority. This was
due entirely to the efforts of Gover-
nor Uagerman, who made a personal
campaign for t e measure. The en-
tire republican machine was secretly
opeosed to the jointure of the two
territories.
Returns at this hour aro meager but
reports from twenty precincts In Ariz-
ona show that the vote was over 3
to 1 against the measure. In New
Mexico the Mexican counties cast a
heavy vote against the proposition.
However, this was discounted by the
vote In the American counties. The
result In Santa Fe county is still in
doubt. Late returns may change the
result of the vote in New Mexico.
Early returns Indicate that delegate
to congress Andrews of New Mexico
may have been defeated by bis dem-
ocratic opponent, D. A. Darranzola.
At a late hour it looks as if Dele-
gate Smith, democrat from Arizona,
has beon re-elected, his majority be-
ing estimated at 1,500.
Defeat For Beckham
LOUISVILLE, KY : A defeat for
the machine of Governor Peckham
was the feature of the democratic
state primary Tuesday.

got the Indorsement for United States
senator over Beckham by a plurality
estimated at 10,000.
The result^in the race for the gu-
bernatorial nomination Is, however, In
doubt. N. H. Hays, the antl-adminls-
tratlon candidate, and S. W. Hager,
supported by the Beckham faction,
both claim It. but neither over 5000.
The republicans carry two of the
eleven congreslonal districts.
St. Louis Republican
ST. LOUIS: Three hundred and
seventy five precincts out oi 105 In
side of St Louis give Woodson (dem.)
for supreme court judge, 25,535, Ken-
nlsh (rep ). 28,475; 81 precincts out of
122 in 110th congressional dUtrlct
gives Neville (dem), 8673, Cultleld

OMAHA: Nebraska will remain la
the republican column, giving Sheldon

borhod f ten thusand. This Is based
n scattering returns frm all sections

voring the republican candidates by a
small majority.
The legislature, which will elect a
successor to Senator Millard, is safely
republican.
BOSTON: Guild, republican, was
elected governor by 30,000.
Governor Huobes Talks.
NEW YORK: When seen at his
home Mr. Hughes said:
"1 am very much gratified if I am
elected as now seems to be the case,
but 1 am not accustomed to speak
in detail upon matters about which
there may be uncertainty.
"I understand, however, that my
election is pretty well assured, but
whatever my plurality may be, my
feeling is not one of elation, but of
responsibility. Thnt is all that I care
to say at present."
New York Man Sore.
NEW YORK: Lewis S. Chanler.
democratic candidate for lieutenant
governor. In the Giisey house at 9:45
p m. Tuesday night said: "Judg-
ing onlv bv the returns which I have
been able to see, it appears Hughes
has defeated Mr. Hearst by 8,000 In
the state."
Told that the figures indicate the
election uf the entire democratic state
ticket with the exception of Hearst
and that he would probably succeed
Lynn Bruce, Chanler said:
"I don't give a damn. All T wanted
was to see Mr. Hearst elected and
It's a shame that certain people have
succeeded In beating him."
Leaders Retire Early.
Ntew YORK: Timothy L. Wood-
ruff. chairman of the republican state
committee, left headquarters at 10
o'clock Tuesday nlglit for his home.
Hefore going he said: "Mr. Hughes
has been elected by a plurality of near-
ly 40,000. The result was never in
doubt, and the people of New York
have effectively rebuked Hearstlsm. I
have no doubt that the entire repub-
lican state ticket has been elected, but
I am too tired to give figures at this
time."
Charles E. Hughes, the successful
candidate, retired about li o'clock aft
er expressing himself as well satisfied
with the result.

ever, resulted In the defeat of the re-
publican machine assembly candidates

two great counties of the state, New-
ark and Jeraov C.ltv
Longworth Wins Out
•CINCINNATI: Complete returns in-
dicate that the result of the election
in Cincinnati will be very close. So
far it looks as If the democrats have
been victorious, but the returns don't
forecast they will win by much more
than 2000. This prediction is based
on the count of the straight tickets.
They show small republican gains.
The republicans would have to gain
28 to the precinct over the vote for
Dempsey to win. The scratched, tick-
ets favor the democrats.
All the indications point to the elec-
tion of Nicholas Longworth for con-
gress from the First district, but on-
ly bj 3000 or 4000.
Ohio Republican by 75,000.
COLUMBUS, O.: State Chairman

Killing in Kentucky
CRAB ORCHARD. Ky: In a duel in
a crowded street at the election here
Milton Estes was shot three times

ing in which Kennedy took part' two
years ago, when Estes arrested him
Kennedy was arrested.
New Hampshire Republican
CONCORD. N. H.;—Charles M.
Floyd, republican. Is elected governor
by more than 5000 plurality.
West Virginia Republican.
WHEELING, W. Va.: Karly returns
from all sections of the state show
that republicans will elect five con-
gressmen. This means that the dem-
ocrats will not get a member of con-
gress. The legislature will he republi-
can, but by a reduced majority.
Very Light ote.
DALLAS, TEX.: It looks as if from'
returns thus far reoelved that Texas
has cast the lightest vote In nearly
twenty years. It Is doubtful If all par-
ties cast 250,000 votes. Of these prob-
ably. 200,000 were democratic. Tho
congressional delegation Is solidly
democratic .
Patterson by 10,000.
NASHVILLE, TENN.: Reports
enough are in Ui show that Congress-
man M. R. Patterson has defeated H.
Clay Evans, republican for governor,

lican; Second, Robert Garrett, repub-
llcan; Third, Harry B. Wolf, demicrat

one for the republicans! Paekson was
defeated two years kza oy Thomas A.
Smith, whom he vanquished today.
Mudd was opposed by the labor vote.
William A. Wheatley, the democrat-
ic candidate for judge in Baltimore
defeated Thomas Ireland Elliott
Results in Delaware.
WILMINGTON, DEL.: Congress-
man Burton and the whole republican
ticket have been elected 'by about 1,-
500 majority. The next legislature
will be republican by a safe majority,
which means that U. S. Senator Ale's
successor will be a repubrlcan.
Newcastle county is republican and
by 1,000.
Result in Utah
SALT LAKE CITY: Partial re-
turns from the election in Utah indi-
cate the re-election of Joseph Howell
for congressman by a large majority.
Joseph M. Frick Is elected juititce of
the supreme court.
The only real fight was In Salt Lake
county where the American (anti-Mor-
