closely contested elections. The main re
sults, a now established, are as follows:

creased' his plurality to about 106,000,
Against ; JO.000 In 19W. The entire state
ticket and both branches of the legislature

ently democratic. Ex-Oovernor Smith car
ried the. primaries for tho long term In the
United States senate, and Senator WIJllam
Plnokney . Whyte Is assured of 'the short
term.
T4t roault jr New Jersey (ba beoame so
close that It may require the official re
turn to decide between Kataenbanh, the
democratic candidate . for governor, and
Judge Fort, the republican nominee. The
early reports of Katzcnbach'a load of 15.000
haveV been followed by detailed returns
showing that only a few hundred votes
separate the contestants. At Newark,
Fort's elect lou la claimed by a plurality of
about 175. In 1904 Governor Stokes, repub
lican, had a mujorlly of 31X00 In New Per

A clear Tammapy victory, which elected
every democratic candidate for Justice of
tbe supreme court, judges of the court of
general' session, and of the city Court,
nine of the fifteen new municipal court
Judges, the sheriff, and eight additional
aldermen was the result of yesterday's
election In this dir. The fusion forces in
tbe borough of Manhattan, consisting of
republican and Independence league men
were able to hold their own on assembly
men In New York county, but the repub
lican lose ane member of the assembly In
the greater city. In tho board of alder
men there will be a democratic majority
of S4. "
The most sweeping Tammany victory
was in tbe election of Thomas F. Foley
for sheriff over M. V. Ihmsen, the fusion
nominee, with 4 plurality of 14.717." Mr.
Ihmsen ha for years been campaign man
agr for William R. Hearst.

CLEVELAND, Nov. .-Complete return
give Johnson, democrat, for- mayor 48. $39;
Burton, republican, 39.026. Johnson' plu
rality, 9.31.X The entire democratic ticket
was elected with the exception of police
clerk. The city council will stand twenty
five democrat and even republican.
Congressman Burton made considerable
gain over the vote of two years ago, when
William H. Boyd wa the republican can
didate, but the gain wa not sufficient to
overcome the strong Johnson lead.
Following the re-election of Myor John
son, the Cleveland Electric Railway com
pany again resumed selling ticket t the
old rate of eleven for 60 cents. For a
month prior to the election the company
sold tickets at the rate of seven for 23
cents, upon which basts they asked a
renewal of their franchises. Mayor John
son was elected upon a straight 3-vent
platform. It la probable that the Cleve
land Electric railway will keep the higher
rate of fare in force during the remainder
of the life of their franchises. The question
of annexing Colllnwood. a suburb, to
Cleveland, was carried by a large majority
at yesterday' election.
The chief feature following the an
nouncement of tho election of Bond, re
publican, ts his statement that fie pro
poses as mayor to enforce all Sunday and
other laws, a matter on which he refused
to speak during the campaign. , .

S.271. He received 43,656; Dempsey. demo
crat, 2S.5M. and PfafT. city party, ,850. The
vote on prohibition and socialist candidate
was small. Both republican candidates for
superior judges were elected by more than
10,000 majority. The new city council will
have twenty-four republican and five
democrats, a republican gain of 6.
DELAWARE
WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. 6. The vote
on the liquor question In the four districts
of tho state sluw that there was a ma
jority in the state as a whole for license
of from 2.000 to 2,200, but the actual re
sult is that license prevails In two dis
trict and prohibition in the other two.
The license district are the city of Wil
mington, with a population of about 90,000
and about 260 bars, and Newcastle county,'
with a population of about 40,000 and about
thirty drinking places. The. prohibition
districts are Kent county, with a popula
tion of 35,000 and about twenty drinking
bars, and Sussex county, with 40,000 popu
lation and about twenty-five drinking burs,.

out of IIS counties indicate that the ma

for governor, over 8. W. Hager 1 14,000.
The legislature is stUI in doubt, but the
democrat will probably have a small ma
jority on joint baHot. ;
James F. Grlnstead was elected mayor
of Louisville over' Owen Tyler by 4.6S3.

MARYLAND
BALTIMORE. Nov. &-Incomplete, but
reliable Indicative return received early
this morning show that the democrat
have elected Judge Austin L. Crothers
governor and the entire state ticket by
an estimated plurality of about 7,000. The
legislature appears to be safely demo
cratic. Ex-Governor John Walter Smith
defeated Governor Edwin Warfield and
Congressman Talbot In . the primaries for
the long term United States senatorshlp,
beginning in 1909. Senator William Plnck
ney Whyte waa unopposed and will suc
ceed himself for the short term. Senator
Whyte wus appointed at the death of the
late Senator Gorman until the legislature
should choose a successor.
NEW JERSEY
TRENTON. N. J.. Nov. 6. Heturns are
coming slowly, but the present indications
are that J. Franklin Fort, republican. 1
elected governor by about S.Ouu plurality.
This will depend altogether upon the re
sult in Hudson county, which includes
Jersey City. Hudson county waa last night
placed in tbe table as. giving 15,000 for
Frank 8. Kattenbach. The figures as
compiled today indicate that the plurality
may not go above 10,009 or 17,0n0.
Tbe legislature will be republican- In
both branches. .The new senate, will show
a gain of one democrat and wjll stand
republican 14, democrat 7.
' -The lower house will stand republicans
13, democrat 18. Thepresent house has
democrat 31, republican 29.
Another feature of the elections in New
Jersey la the defeat of Mayor- Mark M.
Fagan of Jersey City for re-election. Hi
passing Is of national Interest, because he
has become known throughout tbe country
for hi antagonism to machine politicians.
Fagan ha thrice been mayor of Jersey
City. His successful antagonist I H. Otto
Wlttpenn, a democrat.
Dr. Waller Madden, democrat, waa elected
mayor of Trenton by a plurality of S72.

NEW YORK. Nov, g Raymond Hitch
cock, the actor who disappeared aeveral
day ago after he had been Indicted on
charge preferre- by nrrrrral young girls,
appeared at the criminal court building
today and went to the ofllce of the district
attorney. Hitchcock Is under bond to ap
pear in court thin afternoon.
Hitchcock wa arraigned upon only one
of the six Indictment agalnat him, to
which he pleaded no guilty and furnished
ball. He wa paroled in custody of hi
counsel upon the otter five. Hi counsel
said the actor had ot been out of New
York, but had been suffering from nervous
prostration a a . retult of the charge.
This, he said, waa the first day he had
been able to got out - . ' . s
Hitchcock looked pale and haggard and
showed sign of Illness. He said be had
decided to face hi accuser and try to win
back the confidence tt his friend and the
public. J
"I ani innocent." h aaid, "and the only
way for me to pro-re It 1 to stand trial.' I
am prepared to fight K out now, and I'll
go through with lt.1
. While Hitchcock wa in court hi wife
remained In the district attorney' office
and in a semi-hysterical condition,
Since Hitchcock' llsappearance the po
lice of the entire eastern section of the
United State and I Canada have been
searching for him. But absolutely nothing
of hi whereabout waa known to the pub
lic until he appeared at the Criminal Court
building today.. He wentdlrectly to the
district attorney" office, from whence, ac
companied by hi wife and counsel, he was
taken to the court i of general sessions,
where ball wa fixed' at 17,500.
The first Intimation of trouble came sev
eral month ago, whin Hitchcock wa ap
pearing in the leading rolelln "A Yankee
Tourist," through the publication of a
story In a local newspaper containing prac
tically the same allegation a those that
led to the indictments. No action of any
kind was taken at that time, however, and
it waa not until the opening of the present
theatrical season, which found Hitchcock
again appearing In "A Yankee Tourist,"
that the storm broke. The first real sen
sation came whaa the actor caused . the
arrest o na charge ; of 'blackmail of a
brother of one of the young girl whose
name had been mentioned in th charges
against Hitchcock. ' A few day later
Hitchcock wna summoned to the office of
Uie district attorney and was arrested on
a charge of criminal assault. Two days
ubnequently, while lie wa at liberty on
ball, the Indictment wen? returned by the
grand jury and1 almost simultaneously he
dropped out of sight

MANILA. Nov. (.Secretary Taft told
The Associated Press today that be ex
pected, to return borne over the Siberian
railway. He thought at first that the
trouble at - Vladivostok would keep hi
party away from there. He haa received
no replle to dispatches of Inquiry he has
sent, but .he regard tt a extremely prob
able that he will atlck to hi original plan.
A meeting In Manila last night of nation
alist radicals, no member of the assembly
being present, adopted a motion censuring
the majority .of that body for inaction in
regard to proposition in favor of Inde
pendence. Taft s Party Affair.
Secretary Taft, In an address at a ban
quet given by the progressive party last
night, spoke of the history of the party
division and declared that their existence
wa a necessary part of the change In
the .Philippines. . "The only ' method of
conducting popular government," he said,
"Is by political parties. The federal party
at tbe time of it organisation was in no
sense political. When It existed It wa
the only party organised to convince the
people to accept the promise of the Ameri
can. It worked bravely and faithfully to
this end and to such an extent that much
of the success of the early government of
tbe island waa In no small measure due
to the federalist. They sought peace and
taught the people to seek peace.
"After the firm establishment of the
government had been accomplished, a
change wa natural. In election for mem
ber of the assembly it wa natural for
the- people to divide. Knowing and be
lieving that both the nationalist and pro
gressive parties have the Interests of the
government at heart, the . question of
which shall control is settled only by an
election.
"The first principle of party politics
necessary to learn Is that defeat must not
cause discouragement. The first lesson In
self-government that voter have to learn
' - to be good losers, and when that 1
learned, to be good winners, because self
Tovernment Imposes restraint on both
side.
"The minority must not strive to atrike
down the work of their opponents because
they are not in control and the majority
-nust so conduct .affairs as to show that the
eople have part in the government.
Nothing has given greater pleasure or more
onfldenee in the success of what we are
lolng -than the action of the assembly.
All matter up to date have been treated
'n conservative manner by both the
Yilnority and the majority. All I ask Is
hat the minority, while pointing out the
"aults of the majority,' may -always conduct
tself with pride, so a to, show the assem
bly is a success."
The secretary referred to mistakes of the
?uhan government, due to lack of interest
n public affairs on the part of the leglsla
'or of that Islu&d. and declared that the
Philippines ' aasemby showed a difference
in this respect.'

directly authorized it. The result of Mr.
Hackstaff action ha been to put many
of the stockholders upon inquiry and they
have asked me ' what I am going to do.
I have told all of them that they should
not comply with Mr. Hackstaff's request,
which is clearly another move for Union
Pacific dominance, and I am asking the
stockholder to await proxle which I shall
end out forthwith."

C. E. Hunt, editor and manager of th
Hotel Bulletin of Chicago, Is at the Rome.
Tbe purpose of his visit to Omaha Is to Btlm
ulate the Omaha hotel men Into a greater
Interest In the matter of tourist travel the
coming season. '
"Through the encouragement of the ral'
roads which reach the great resorts of the
middlewest, Colorado and California, we
are endeavoring to Impress the trvclln
public thoro are Intermediate point worth
visiting." said Mr. Hunt.' "This is particu
larly true of Omaha, with it Immense
smelling works, splendid river, great mili
tary poets and the stock yards. Many trav
elers would be delighted to stop over in
Omaha for a few day could top-over
privileges be obtained on their tickets. We
have arranged for such a ticket, which Is
known as the coupon ticket, permitting the
traveler to stop over at any point he de
sires. These constitute a long coupon
ticket and the stop-over destination ticket
Is torn off Just as any ordinary coupon
whereby the traveler can stop at intermedi
ate station or cities for any reasonable
length of time and the ultimate destination
of hi ticket be not impaired. We have
made a great success of these ticket dur
ing the past season along the Santa Fe
route, and now we are proposing to utilize
the Union Pacific and Northwestern for th
coming season. We shall In the Hotel Bul
letin give Omaha and It hotel an ex
tended write-up, with ample illustrations,
nd how the advantages of the city in
every way. The hotel men are taking a
decided Interest in the matter, a are many
of tho Omaha business men."

Will Flood Anditorlam with Freak
Baked Loaves of Staff of Life.
The bread baking contest at the Audi
torium this afternoon has aroused the oread
bakers In the home of Omaha a no
contest of the kind ha ever done before.
This is due largely to the fact that the
cash prizes offered for the bet loaves of
bread are unusually liberal and because tbe
tartlng up of tho Updike flouring mill In
Omaha has created a widespread Interest
among Omaha people to show to the
world that flour made In Omaha ts as
good If not better than any In this or any
other country. From the number of tele
phone calls regarding the particulars of
the contest Manager Glllan said last night
that he . would not be at all surprised to
see anywhere from 300 to 600 loaves of bread
delivered at the Auditorium this afternoon
by ladles who wish to compete for the
prises. .
Next in point of Interest is the baby
how, which takes place on Friday after
noon a.t 2:30. A large number of beautiful
babies and proud mothers will be on band
to claim the cash prises. Ten dollar In
gold will be given the mother of the pret
tiest baby, la for the second, and 13 for

STICKNEY FOR NATIONAL BANK
President of Great Western Railway
Make Sasaestloa to Retrieve
Strlngeary.
ST. PAUL, Nov. 6. President A. B.
Stlckney of the Chicago Great Western
railway, in a published Interview advocates
a national bunk in which the government
shall deposit Its treasury funds. He said:
"The official reports of the United States
treasury shows that on last Thursday,
October SI, there wa locked up in the sub
treasurtua, idle and useless, the enormous
sum of fl27.170.OS7.64 of actual cash, while
all the banks In all the reserve cities of
the United State had suspended cash
payment and the movement of the crop
had vtopped and laborers are compelled to
accept chock for wage Instead of cash,
all for want of currency, which want of
currency the New York banks are trying
to relieve by Importing about 830,000,000 of
gold or about ono-quarter of the amount
held In the treasury Idle and useless.
"Can any system of government bank
ing be conceived which would produce
more absurd result?
"Let us have a national bank which is
not only good enough for the people to
deposit their money In, but Is also good
enough for the government to deposit Its
money In."
