According to In complete returns from all over the state, i received tip to 10:30 p. m Charles K. Hughes, thu republican candidate, has been elected governor of New York state over William Randolph Hearst, the nominee of the democratic party nnd the Independence league, by approximately a plurality of ',0tt. Two years ago Governor Illggina was elected on the republican ticket by S0,3. There was some doubt expressed tonight as to tlio fate of the democratic nnd Inde j iiendence league tickets outside of Mr. , Hearst, several of the New York news impers which have been supporting Mr. Hughes doctoring that there was a chance that the subordinate officer of the demo cratic and Independence league combination hud been elected. The latest figures seem to Indicate that Mr. Hughes' plurality above the Bronx will ' exited llivWO.. To offset this, Mr. Hearst's plurality In inuut., V.w Vnrlr Will timbablv b frolll ' T5.(a to go.ooo. In Brooklyn, where Senator Tatrlck II. ! JMcCarren made a bitter fight against ! Hearst, the latter carried the borough by a j small majority, probably 4,000. At one time , It seemed that Hughes had been successful , In Brooklyn, but the late returns were all i etrmur In favor, flf the democratic canai " ,iui TVfr. Hearst has been riven a nia- j Joilty of nearly 70,0M) In Manhattan and the i Bronx. Queen'a county, which Includes ! Jxjng Island City, has gone for Hearst by ; from ti.WiO to 8,(100, and Richmond, SJtaten 1 Island, luin also given the democratic can j tlldato a plurality. Hearst Carrlea Vi-State Cities. As was generally expected, Mr. Hearst showed Ms greatest strength In the cities ' through the state and took out of the re publican column a number of tho more Im portant municipalities which heretofore . i.ii...... A wr fttlM pave Dwen repuuuau. Aiwt which gav)e Hearst a plurality wore Buffalo, Rochester, Vtlcn, Troy. Klmlra, Rome, Little Kails and Johnstown. All of those except Utica and Rome were republican two years ago. Mr. Hughes did not gal" a single city. The republican ticket wax successful, but sustained serious losses In Syracuse. Oloversvillc. Amester dam. Ithaca, Schenectady, Watertowa and l'lullsburg. ! As a result of the scratching and the ' voting for the same candidates under dlf- ferent party emblems, the returns for the subordinate officer on the various state tickets are so complicated as not to be available tonight. (Ireat Interest center here In New York In the campaign waged for the Judiciary ticket named by a committee of lawyers, headed by Joseph H. Choate and former Judge Alton B. Parker. Tho Tammany and Independence league Joint ticket has won over the non-partisan candidates by big pluralities. State- Senator Thomas V. Orady of Tarn , many hall has been re-elected over Thomas ' Km k. who has been known In the cam- i paign as 'Kight-hour"' Rock and who claimed he had been ' tricked by the In dependence league. Throughout the state there has been a notable falling off In the ote from 1!M. which was a presidential year. The republican ticket showed the greatest loss in this respect, especially ill the cities. statement by Republicans. In claiming the election of Mr. Hughes tonight by a large plurality Republican State Chairman Woodruff said: I knew all along we had lost the labor vote. Kvery possible tiling was done to re tovrr It, but 1 think without avail. Mr. Hughes raid: I am very gratified If I am elected, as now cenm to tx the east. Whatever my i.lurulity may be my f.eling is nut of ela tion but of resiionmlilllty. Neither Max F. lhniseti, chairman of the Independence league, V. J. Connors, cliafr nian tf the democratic committee, nor Mr. Hearst were willing to admit that they had been defeated at a late hour tonight. There were many odd turns to the bal loting. Hero In New York it was Rich mond borough that defeated Mr. Hearst for mayor a year ago, and It was Brook lyn, with u. big plurality, which helped lilm make tha race so close. Mr. Hearst Ivarely carried Brooklyn today, but ran ahcud In Richmond. In Schenectady, one of the bst or ganised labor cities in the Vnited States, it was exacted Mr. Hearst would have a iuhftantlal plurality. The republican ticket wiia successful by 374 votes as h gainst a Higglns plurality of 1,1,21 two .uik ago. While both the state senate and assem bly will be strongly republican, the demo tr.its are claiming that they have made guins. The complexion of the New York congressional delegation It Is believed, will undergo but slight change If any. Klrctlna Mht Ariel.

Clarence filhboney, who hud the support of the reform forces and the democrat. The incoming legislature will be strongly republican, although not so overwhelm ingly for that party as It was two years ago. The new personal registration law which went Into effect since the last election re duced tho normal vote In many of the cities. The corrupt practices ace, which also be came operative since the last election, also operated to cut down the vote In mine lo calitlee. This act prohibits the use of money at elections, except for the legitimate pur poses, and Is claimed to have deterred many poll workers from buying votes. One of the chief issues in the state cam paign was the new capitol, which was 'ledlcated October A. The fuslonlHts claimed M several million dollars of over-charges d duplications are renresented in furnish. and equipping the building. The republi can candidates pledged themselves, If elected, to investigate honestlv thean charges and to place the responsibility for ine alleged extravagance where It right fully belonged. Of the congressional contest the hottest was that against John Palxell, one of the republican floor leaders. Thomas D. Nichols, district president of the United Mine Workers, was the democratic nominee against Dalzell In the Lackawanna district. Doemer In the fifteenth district was oi posed by William It. Wilson (dem), na tional secretary-treasury of the Vnited Mine Workers. President John Mitchell made speeches for Nichols and Wilson in their district. The state senators who were elected to day will serve In the next two regular sessions of the legialature and will vote for a Vnited States senator In the session of 1909. when a auccepsor to Boies Pen rose will be chosen. The state was op portloned by the legislature at the extra session and today' election was the first under the new apportionment. INDIANA I INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. ".-Republicans have elected their entire state ticket In Indiana by an estimated majority of be tween 40,000 and 50.000. The next legislature will be republican. Republicans have elected six congressmen, in the First, Six tit. Seventh.' Ninth, Tenth and Thirteenth dis tricts. The democrats have elected two. In the Third and Fourth districts. Republican State Chairman Goodrich claims the elec tion of Fred Landls, In the Kleventh, Democratic Chairman O'Brien claims the election of Morris. In the Twelfth, and Adair, In the Eighth. Returns from the Second and Fifth districts are not suffi cient to Justify an accurate estimate a to the result. The results are spotted, due to schatch ing. The republican state ticket carried several democratic strongholds which elected democratic county and legislative tickets, and In other place the opposite wa true. The vote In the state was sur prisingly light. In Indianapolis not more than two-thirds of the full vote was polled and the shrinkage was largely In the re publican wards. The democrats have elected the proce eding attorney and probably the auditor In Marion county. Republican majorities have been reduced from the figures of two year ago.

ST. PAUU Minn., Nov. "6. Governor Johnson was today re-elected governor by the largest majority ever given a demo cratic candidate In this state, estimated anywhere from S0.oo to fiO.ono. ' His victory over A. L. Cole, the republican candidate. Is so decisive that early In the evening the republican state central committeemen admitted defeat for their candidate. As an Instance of the great gains made by the democratic candidate seven pre cincts In St. 111111 which two years ago only gave him a majority of T, this year gave him 3"9 majority. The legislature Is thought to be safely republican. Congressman McCleary, In the Second district, had a hard fight on his hands and at this hour It looks doubtful for him. ARIZONA Tl'CSON. Nov. 611.

In the First the vote was very close, with Emcrleh (dem.) slightly ahead of Madden (rep.). In the Fourth and Fifth districts the democratic candidates were also slightly ahead.

SHELDON GETS OVER THREE HUNDRED AdYerte Micksy MajoritT Wipd Out by Comine QoTernor. HITCHCOCK WILL GO TO CONGRESS jXeonedr Defeated by Small Vote ia the Outside Counties. SLABAUGH FOR COUNTY ATTORNEY LOSES Inelisb the Only Other Cemecrat to Laid Under the Wire. TELEPHONE FIGHT COMPLICATES THINGS Democrat Knjny Assistance from This and from Railroad oorcri, hnt Still Lose the LealslatUc Delegation. Complete election returns show that tho icpublicnns have carried Douglas c-mnty, giving George I,. Sheldon for governor iilM majority and taking the entire republican ticket with two exceptions, along wilh him to victory. Republicans carried Douglas county In spite ot many oliKlailes. - They curried it in spite of the newly Installed democratic city administrations in both Omaha and South Omaha. They curried It In spite of the home rule dodge raised by the demo crats. They curried it in spile of the di version created by the telcphono light, which furnished the democrats their sinews of war. They curried It In spite of the combined opposition of the railroads, who lined up with the democrats on a promlao of protection on terminal taxation. The two places where the republicans fell down arc those of congressman and county attorney, on which the opposition centered Its fire moat. O. M. Hitchcock will go back to congress with a majority In tho neigh borhood of 3j0 In the district, saved by tho two outside counties, Washington and Sarpy, which have both, gone against John L. Kennedy, the present rcpublicuu con gressman. James l. Kngllsli will In turn succeed W. W. hlubaugh at; county attorney, who two years ago took the pluce then occu pied by English. Republican Mate Ticket. The republican slate ticket runs a little better In Douglas county than Sheldon. Sheldon, it, must be rememlHTed, had lo combat certain so-culled "liberal" In fluences, which have kept this county in the democratta column un governor re peatedly atid which buried Uovrrnor 'Mickey under an adverse majority of 2,'Mt two years ago.- The transforming of this demo cratic .majority Into a republican niujorlty Is everywhere regarded as a wonderful achievement. Tho legislative delegation that will go to Lincoln next Winter will be solidly re publican, witli majorities lunging from St up. The re-election of County Commissioner Kennard Insures the continuation of .the . present solidly republican county board. All the republican school board candi dates were elected by largo majorities. For water commissioners Milton T. 'Har low, republican, and D. J. O'Urlen, demo crat, had no opposition and the. same is true for W. A. Yoder, , republican, tor county siiieiinteiident. The Independent telephone franchise wu ratified by un overwhelming majority. Scarcely a precinct In the Whole city failed to register in favor of a second telephone. The Improvement bonds were also carried nnd presumably the referendum propo sition, too, although people paid little at tention to It. The vote on tho constitu tional amendment for railroad commission was almoft unanimous. Vote Starts Karly. The voting started out brisk as soon aa the polls opened, but the day was Inter rupted wllh Intermittent showers, which Interfered w ith the at tendance at the poll. Workers were well In evidence, however, especially thoso retained by the opposing telephone companies. The total vote was short considerably of the registration, but still ulte well polled under adverse condi tlens. The republicans carried nine out of the twelve wards In Omaha, but the demo crats sei nied to hnve piled t.p a big moun tain of otes In South Oin.i'ia. going stronger there than usu.il. Tho vote in the count it precincts seems to have been uu usuHlly light. So far um known, there was no disturbance worth mentioning Ht tho polls. Some dlth cultiea were encountered by the clogging id tho voting machines. This did not provu serious In any plate. The returns .'unm in very rapidly aitcr tho polls closed at 6 o'clock and grut crowds gathered around tho bulletin boards and political head quarters. The results, therefore. Were known comparatively caily. Congressman Kennedy, about 11 o'clock, wired the republican congressional com mittee to the effect that lc was probably defeated, llo cxpress-d hlinsell further than tills us convinced that the telephone tight was chielly to blame for his filling behind tli" ticket III Omaha. Mr. Hitchcock wus pitturnlly elated, .llthouvth Ins earlier cluims of large majorltlt 1 were punctured as the Incoming precincts reduced 1,1s lead. Keen anil (irueral Interest. If anyone has the remotest Idea that Omaha people were not Interested and In tensely Interi sled In llie outcome of the elec tion ho might have hud tlmt idea quickly illssipated liy stundlng for one brief moment li The Bee editorial looms and listened to the battery ot telephones ringing, fcx tra plumes had n put l.i for the occa sion und the entire number was kept 111 tonsiant use, chielly by chIIs from persons wanting to know how the election Went. The fact is Omaha was deeply concern, d In the returns. Further evidence of this fact was supplied by the thousands of peo ple who stood at Seventeenth and Farnaiii streets and watched' the bulletins displayed by the lantern from The llee oftlces against . the New York Life building. Other places where bulletins wt re displayed uifo drew throngs of eager spectators and a pande monium et each pluce was kept up iui the various returns were ibrowii upon the big white canvasser, showing this man ahead un.l then that one. Republican and democratic lieudquurt.'rs in tho 1'atprson block at Seventeenth and Fariiaiu streets, were busy places during thu early pail or tUc ivcnlug, but thajg
