contest in the courts.

Mr. Hearst himself will make no
statement and referred all questionera
to Mr. ihmsen. The latter said that
Mr. Hearst claimed hi! election as
mayor by a tiled majority. That a
fraudulent vote of at least 40.000 had
been cast in Greater New York was
the claim of the Hearst managers. it
had been decided. Mr. ihmsen said.
to demand a recount of the entire tick-
ot, if. after the 194 hilaalfig ballot box-
es had been located and counted. it
was found Mr. Hearst still lacked suf
ficient votes to elect him.
“It must have been that these boxes
contained many Hearst votes." Mr.
lhmsen declared. "otherwise they
Would not be missing. Certain it is
that they would not carry away boxes
containing a majority of McClellan
votes. But one thing Is ccrtaln. Mr.
Hearst will demand a proper recount
even should the votes in these missing
boxes not elect him. it Is also certain
that we will carry this matter to the
court of last resort If necessary. Mr.
Hearst feels that he has been elected
and that ii majority of the citizens of
New York have cast votes for him.
and he proposes to have those votes
honestly counted. as well as the many
thousands of illegal votes thrown out.
We have evidence of many thousands
of‘fhesc votes." '
“Mr. Hearst has been honestly elect-
ed," declared Mr. Shearn with much
warmth, “and Mr. McClellan will ncv~
or be permitted to take his seat on
this election. 1 know enough of law
to know this election will not stand.
William R. Hearst Is the man who
will be mayor of New York after Jan-
uary lat next.”
Asked if it were true that Mr.
Hearst had had a conference with Mr.
Jerome. Mr. lhmsen replied that sev-
eral Hearst men had/met Mr. Jerome
within the hour and talked tho situa-
tion over with him.
"And is Mr. Jerome to cooperate
. with the Hearst people in demanding
a recount and taking the matter be—
fore the courts?" was asked.
“I do not know that thevcoopora-
tion of the district attorney was ask-
ed. As I understand, merely his ad~
vice was uked. All i can say is that
our representatives reached an under-
standing with Mr. Jerome. and we are
assured he will assist us in punishing
violators of the election laws. and 'tln
soldiers: or illegal voters. All we are
asked to produce is the evidence. and
we have that lore. ,
“That Mr. carat h obeen honestly
elected is our conten Ill“! he does
not intend to be count“ out through
an fraudulent mound, After we got
u l tile needsdsleep. We will take this
matter no and carry it through with
much vigor." ‘
Utilities E Murphy. the leader of
Tammany Hall. refused this morning
to comment on the t of the vol:
ing. it was explatmdrfor him that an
«the polling was so class he realised
that a contest would be made. and
‘t while he was conddsnt that the
' decision ‘

of place for hint to say any.
. i,
enough frauds have been committed
in Brooklyn to change the result of the
result of the mayoralty election. We
have enough affidavits showing frauds
in the various boroughs to upset the
McClellan pluralitles.
“My election I regard as due to the
uprising of the people against the
bosses. That is an issue which rises‘
higher than any personality."
Election day came to a close with
a dramatic scene at the Hoffman
House. where William R. Hearst gath-
ered his friends and advisers around
him to begin the preparation of his
legal contest of the returns which in'
dlcated the success of‘hls Democratic
opponent. George B, McClellan. As
the late vote came in. showing McClel-
lan only a few thousand ahead. and
as it was noticed that figures fresh
some of the East Side districts were
missing. Mr. Hearst said he believed
he was being cheated out of a hard-
fought and honestly won victory. and
announced his intention to make a
contest in the courts. He sent out a
all for the members of the law com-
mittee of the Municipal Ownership
League and soon they began to arrive.
At the hotel waiting for the lawyers
were scores of Hearst voters with sto
rlea of violence-and outrage at poll-
ing places where they had gone to
cast. their ballots. Men were corn~
ing into the. hotel constantly with
bruised and bleeding faces. One man

Mr. Hearst gave out the following
statement, which is repeated today in
his newspaper. the Evening Journal:
"We have won this election. All

ruption. all 'i‘anlnluny‘s , intimidation
and violence, llll Tlilnlnany's false reg~
lstrailon. illegal voting and dishonest
count have not been able to overcome
a great popular majority. The recount
will show that we have won the elec-
tion by many thousands of votes.
“1 shall fight this battle to the end.
ill behalf of the people who have cast
their votes for me and who shall not
be disfranclilsed by any effort of crim-
inal bosses.
(Signed)
. “WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST."
'l‘hc‘”Evc'lling Journal also, prints a
notice that bets on the mayoralty
should not, be paid. declaring that the
official count will show ilearst elected.
Mr. chrsi may demand that. each
of the 1.948 ballot boxes used In the
election he brought before the board
of Aldermen and a count of the ballots
made by that body. Then if dissatis-
fied Mr, Hearst may throw the whole
mutter into the courts for decision.
Mr. Hearst may also. of course, bring
to the attention of the authorities each
individual cases of fraud or violence
that may be discovered. Although
McClellan on the face of the complete,
but ilnonlclai returns. was elected by
a plurality of 3,485, the Democrats lost
heavily in yesterday's contest.
The election of William R. Travers
Jerome, independent. as district lit.-
torney la a severe blow to the Tam-
many organization. which exerted all
the forces at its command to defeat
him. His victory is remarkable when
it Is considered that howus the can»
didatc of no party, that his supporters
had to vote a split ballot.’ and that
ho made his appeal for votes solely on
his record in onion for the last four
years. The Board of Aldermen. too.

Flames Started from the Firing
olBomlie to Announce Bee
suits of the Election
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 8.-—-Shortly
before midnight last night a tire start-
ed in the big clock tower on the
Chronicle Building as a result of the
firing of bombs to announce the elec~
tion results. and the flames spread
with such rapidity that the entire tire
apparatus of the city was summoned to
the scene. Owing to the great height
of the flames it was impossible to
reach them even with the combined
forces of the water towers. and the
familiar superstructure of the build-
ing was speedily reduced to debris.
which toppled In blazing sections to
the street below. The fire found its
way down to the roof and a consider-
able portion of that part of the build-
Illg was burned before the weak wnt‘
or supply succeeded ill quenching it.
ill the tower was located the photo-
graphic department and below it, on
the top floor, was the composing room,
In which are located many linotype
machines. To what extent these
were damaged is not known.
it is believed that the library, the
most valuable of Its kind in the West,
has been practically destroyed. The
editorial rooms and many business of-
fices on the lower floors were deluged
with water poured upon the upper
part of the structure.
it is impossible to estimate the fin-
ancial loss yet. Several members of
the art staff who attempted to save
some of their property were almost out
off from escape and had difficulty in
getting to a place of safety. At 1
o'clock this morning the fire was ex‘
tingulshod.

Given $5.500, and a Tax of
Eight Mill Was Ordered Laid
it was necessary to go out on the
highways and bycways last night. and
practically drive enough voters to the
Town Assembly Hall In Wall street.
to make a quorum, in order that busi-
ness might be legally transacted at the
annual adjourned meeting of the City
of Norwalk, which made appropria-
tions amounting to $42,500 and laid a
tax of eight mills.
The meeting was called for 7:30
o’clock, but‘there was not a soul on
hand at that hour. and the hall was
not lighted until 7:35. By 8 o'clock
there were only about a dozen present.
City Registrar John W. Greenwood
went out. on the street and made a
personal appeal to voters. and when
Mayor George B. Buxton called order
at 8:05 o'clock there were twenty-six
electors In the hall, one more than the
required number. About a dozen
more came in before the adjournment.
Commenting on the lack of numbers,
just before the meeting opened Coun-
cilman Henry Matheis said:
“if anybody who isn’t here tonight
kicks on what's done during the year
['11 hit hilll with a banana stalk."
The estimates of the various depart-
ments had all been prepared in ad-
vance by the Council. and there was
no opposition to them voiced. Sev-
eral increases were made. notably in
the highway department, which was
given 81,000 more than last yeal, bill
as there were no 81.000 extra appro‘
prllitions to be made tip. as was the
case it year ago. the total was not in-
creased.
The appropriations for all of the dc-
partmcnle were made singly and in
total were as i'oilowa:
Finance, $12,250
Adminisl rativc, 4,500
High way, 5.500
Police. 4,500
Library, 2.500
Fife. 4.700
vai'r, 1.200
Light a. 7 .400
Total. $42,550
ill-presenting the resolution calling
for an appropriation of $5.500 til the
highway department, Councilman Ma-
tlicis said:
"i intended to speak my little spoke
when l presented this resolution. but
i feel so bad that i am not, going to
spend lily strength on so small and
good looking audience." This brought.
forth a laugh.
Councilman James T. Hubbeii offer-
ed a resolution making the tax for the
coming your, payable on June 15th
next. eight mills. There was no com-
llicllt whatever on the resolution tl'nd
it was quickly passed. This is the
same amount of tax as laid by the
meeting a your age.
No other business was done by the
meeting before adjournment, except
to hear the reports of the city clerk,
city treasurer, treasurer of the water
fillld and the board of water commis-
sioners. which were all accepted and
ordered printed.
it was supposed that the lack of
numbers at. the meeting was due to
the interest in the election returns.

Will Hereafter Market Output
of Bridgeport Manufactory
After several months of negotiations
fl deal has been consummated by
which the Wheeler to Wilson Manufac-
turing company, of Bridgeport, passes
into control of its old rival, the Singer
Sewing Machine Company. of Eliza-
beth. N. .i.
For several years these concerns
have been in competition, and one of
the results of the merger will be the
control by the Singer Company of the
output of the Wheeler in Wilson Com-
pany, of Bridgeport. '
The acquisition by the Single; Com-
pany of the Bridgeport sowing mach.
lne concern, which is one of the larg-
est industrial establishmntes in that
city of general interest and the pro-
gress of the transaction will be watch-
ed with intercst. About 2,500 hands
are employed by the Wheeler & Wil«
son company which, besides being one
of the largest. manufacturing compan‘
ics ill the city, is also one of the old-
est, having grown with the city from a
modest. beginning to its present exten-
sive business.
.lust what changes will be made
cannot be ascertained aside from the‘
fact that the Singer Company will
make the product of the local concern.
It is understood that the‘Wheeler at
Wilson Company will continue opera.
tions under the present heads for the
balance of the year at least. On
January 1 it is said that some lmpor:
tent changes will be made, the work-
Ing forces to be reorganized and other
things done to conform to the ideas
of the new owners.
Although the Bridgeport Standard
was unable to get a statement from-
Samuel R. Wheeler, president of the
Wheeler 8!, Wilson ‘
Hardenbcrg, scol'etal'y.,qg2dthe Singer
Company. makes this statement ilili "
ilcspulcll to The Standard from Elisa-
beth. N. .i.: ‘ . _
"An arrangement. has been made 318-.
Company. T. E. , '
tween the Wheeler & Wilson Milkmen, .
factoring Company and the Sin‘ef‘
Sewing Machine Company, by wh oh
the latter company will hereafter mar-
ket the product. of the former In this
country. The Wheeler & Wilson Man-
ufacturing Company will continue its
manufacturing operations as hereto .
fore."
Originally a Bridgeport enterprise,
the Singer and Wheeler & Wilson
companies have been the largest man-
ufactures of sewing machines in the
country for years. At one time the
Singer company was located in
Bridgeport, but because the city would
not make certain concessions the stu-
ger company moved its plant to Eliza:
beth, N. J.. and has since built up a
plant wherein over 5,000 hands are
employed. The Singer Company is
capitalized at 330.000.000 and is the
largest sewing machine manufacturer
in the world.
