slide to Coolidge.
New York, Nov. 4. The New
York Tribune, which has been sup
porting the candidacy of Theodore
Roosevelt, conceded the re-election
of Governor Smith by 100,000 votes
at 11.30 tonight.
New York, Nov. 4. Coolidge and
Dawe3 swept New York state with a
plurality that had reached over 700.
000 when all but 1.397 districts in
the state had been tabulated at mid
night. Of the districts missing 4C5
were in New York city and 932 up
state. At the same hour. Governor Smith
had overcome the margin which up
state districts had given to Theodore
Rooseveit, republican nominee for
governor, and had a lead throughout
the state of 16.704 from 5.412 of a
total of 7.5C3 in the state, including
1.771 out of 2,370 in New orK
state. The New York press gener
ally conceded the re-election of the
governor.
None of the candidates would
comment on the returns as they
were shown at midnight. President
Pool idee at Washington let it be
known he would have nothing to
say until tomorrow. senator L.a-
Follette, at his home in Madison,
said the sam thing. At John W.
Davis' headciuarters in New York.
the only comment was not to forget
1916, when late returns from the
western states turned the election
to Wilson in face of a rolling tide
for Hughes which covered the east.
Congressional Returns Slow
The congressional returns were
markedly slow. Those which came
in before midnight gave little color
to the istuation. The first 100 dis
tricts failed to show a single upset.
Early in the evening the re-election
of Senator Borah of Idaho, the
republican gadfly of the senate, was
conceded by his opponent. The Oma
ha World-Herald, which supported
Davis and Bryan, conceded Nebraska
to Coolidge and also announced the
re-election of Senator Norris, repub
lican. The re-eleetinn rf Senatnr
Capper, republican, Kansas, became
certain.

New York, Nov. 4. At 2 o'clock
this morning. President Coolidge was
maintaining his advantage in the
east and middlewest and had estab
lished leads in the country beyond
the Mississippi, which, if maintained,
would give him and overwhelming
majority in the electoral .-ellege,
with a total running over 300 cotes.
John W. Davis has to his credit
only the states of the ultra-democratic
south, but was lead.ng also
in Oklahoma. Missouri and Tennes
see, all carried by Harding in the
1920 republican landslide. Ho also
had a flight margin in New Mexico
but had surrendered the lead to
Coolidge in Kentucky in a nip and
tuck race.
New York, Nov. 4. Returns re
ceived from nearly one-third of New
York state before 9 o'clock tonight
showed that President Coolidse had
a two to one lead over John W. Davis
for the presidency, with La Follette
third.
These returns indicate a close
race for governor between Gover
nor Smith, democrat and Theodore
Roosevelt, republican.
The returns for president from
2.412 districts out of 7,625 in the
state, including 4f0 out of 2.970 in
New York city showed: Coolidge,
650,137; Davis, 313,548; La Follette,
144,423.
A Lead From the Start.
First returns from today's gener
al election, coming largely from
New England and the east, gave
President Coolidge an early lead
over Davis and La Follette. In most
rases. these reports represented
only a small percentage of the total
vote.
In his home state of Massachu
setts, the president was early lead
ing Davis more than seven to one.
In several other New England states
the strength of the republican na
tional ticket was almost as great.
In upstate New York Mr. Coolidge
likewiip was piling up a tremendous
majority over the combined vote for
Davis and La Follette. but the first
precinct in New York city gave Davis
a moderate lead there.
Coolidge was in the lead in the
first precinct to report in Illinois.
Michigan and Ohio, while Davis had
a slight lead in the first returns
from Kentucky, Tennessee, and West
Virginia.
The solid south returned its cus
tomary big majorities for all demo
cratic nominees.
Roosevelt Running Well.
Theodore Roosevelt, republican
nominee for governor of New York,
took a long lead in most cf upstate
New York, while in New York city,
Governor Smith was far ahead.
Smith was running far ahead of
Davis everywhere in the state.
Senator Walsh of Massachusetts,
likewise was well ahead of the na
tional ticket of his party in the firtt
returns from that state, but early in
the night was trailing his republican
opponent. Speaker Gillett.
With fair weather over the entire
country, the vote appeared certain
to be the largest in the country's
history.
South Generally Solid.
Democratic senators in the south
were chosen by the usual majori
ties and the re-election of Senator
Borah, republican, Idaho, was con
ceded by his democratic opponent.
In West Virginia, the native state
of John W. Davis, Mr. Coolidge was
leading by a narrow margin, but in
Maryland, he was counting two votes
to one for Davis and in Indiana he
was leading Davis by 5,000.
Davis was ahead in Missouri and
Tennessee by a ratio of two to one
on the early returns and was lead
ing by lesser majorities in Okla
homa and Kentucky.
The first returns from Wisconsin,
which had been regarded as the
cornerstone of the La Follette
strength, gave Coolidere 4,300 to
3.2S3 for La Follette. Thruout most
of the east the independent presi
dential candidate ran far behind,
but on early returns-he was run
nuing second to Coolidge in both
North and South Dakota.
Coolidge Ahead in Iowa.
First reports from Iowa, which
has been claimed as a La Follette
state by his campaign managers,
showed Coolidge with a majority
over the combined vote of Davis and
La Follette who were running neck
and neck for second place.
Senator Walsh, democrat of Mas
sachusetts, was running far behind
his republican opponent. Speaker
Gillett, but was leading by a wide
margin the national ticket of his
party. '
In Oklahoma, despite the Davis
lead, J. C. Walton, running on an
anti-klan platform as democratic
candidate for senator, was trailing
his republican opponent.
Mrs. Miriam Ferguson, the demo
cratic anti-klan candidate for gov
ernor of Texas, was in the lead, but
Carlton B. MeCulloch. democratic
candidate for governor of Indiana
and outspoken opponent of the klua,
was running behind his republican
opponent, Ed Jackson.
In Kansas, William Allen White,

Proportions cf a Landslide.
In some parts of the country the
drift to Coolidge was so overwhelm
ing that it threatens to rival the
Harding landslide of 1!20. Mr.
Harding's own voting precincts in
Marion was carried by his success
or by a larger majority than it gave
its native son four years ago.
In his own home state, Massa
chusetts, Mr. Collidge was leading
Davis by a ratio of almost four to

to one; in Rhode Island more than
three to one; in New Hampshire,
more than two to one and in Con
necticut more than two to one. In
upstate New York and in rsrew York
city the president was ahead of Mr.
