John Maynard Harlan, sen of Associate Justice Harlan of the supreme court of the X"cit-d Slates, was a loser as a Re publican candidate for mayor. The defeat i? attributed to an extraordi nary whirl of causes, starting with po litical revenue and takinc in a wide swe.-. embracing the most up-to-date socialism as a factor. The victor is Judge Edward F. Dunne (Pem.). Seldom, if ever, has Chicago wit-r.-sed a more lively, picturesque con test. The city was hideous wiih the ringing of cow bells and the rear of canitoa eras kers. Th- Republican candidate suffered heavily from campaign attacks, charg ing that he was a political assassin. AlKred unworthy leaders of his own party, who had ben thrust from of fice and jviwer largely through Har lan's aggressivtatss in previous cam pa. gns. were eonsp.cuously rbsent frm fcis rurport.
