llarrison’ a plurality ............. 77, 756
Harrison’ s majority over all ............ 2, 222

Complete returns from all the wards
show the election of 23 Democratic a1-
dermen, 6 Republicans and 5 independ-
ents. As a result the Democrats will
have a majority of 8 over all in the
next council. ‘

At the last mayoralty election the
vote fOr Swift (Rep.) was 143,407,
against 102,294 for Wenter (Dem.). In
the presidential election McKinley had
200, 747, against 144, 736 for Bryan.

The Democratic city ticket was led
by Harrison, some of the other Demo—
cratic candidates running more than
12, 000 votes behind him. According to
The Record, the vote for the Democrat-
ic ticket was increased through Re-
publican strength thrown by Republic-
an politicians, such as Congressman
Lorimer, State Treasurer Hertz and
Sheriff Pease, who in the final round up
feared the election of Harlan, the in-
dependent mayoralty candidate. The
Democrats were also aided effectively
by former machine politicians who
quietly separated from the regular or-
ganization after the recent bitter con-
test for the United States senatorship.
The strongholds of Martin B. Madden,
who was defeated in the Republican
caucus for senator, went for Harrison
for mayOr, although heretofore heavily
Republican.

At Quincy the entire Democratic tick-
et Was elected by majorities ranging from
100 to 700. Steinbach (Dem.), for may-
or, was re-elected. Loren E. Wheeler
(Rep.) was elected mayor of Springfield
by 280 majority. The entire city Repub-

lican ticket, with one exception, is elect— '

ed. The Democrats elected five out of
seven aldermen.

A‘t Rockiand the Democrats elected
Medill mayor and most of the city offi-
cers. At Moline Gustaf Swenson, on the
People’s ticket, the present incumbent,
defeated the citizens’ candidate for may—
or by over 500 majority.

 

The Results In Kansas.

Topeka, April 8.—The women of
Kansas were an important factonln
the municipal elections, and a. large
percentage of the vote everywhere was
polled by women. Topeka went Repub-
lican by about 1,500. In Wichita and
Atchison the Republican tickets were
elected by small majorities, and in
Kansas City, Kan, Robert S. Mar-
’chan, Republican, is elected mayor by
probably 500 majority, and the Repub-
licans elect a majority of their candi-
dates. Leavenworth elected a Demo-
cratic mayor owing to a. Republican
split.

The town of Galena went Democrat-
ic, but in a majority of the small cities
fusionists combined against the Re‘
publicans under the head of “Citizens’

ticket,” and as such were successful at.

Coffeyville, Emporia, Marysville, Great
Bend, Newton and Sterling. Republic-
anvictories are reported from Hutchin-
son, Kingman, Wellington, Eldorado,
Burlington, Eureka, Columbus, Belle-
ville and Hiawatha.

. llIixed Results In \Visconsin.

Milwaukee, April 8.—V\"isconsin voters
re-elected, without opposition, Roujet
D. Marshall an associate justice of the
supreme court. Justice Goodland of the
Tenth circuit and Justice Bardeen of
the Sixteenth circuit were, re-elected
without opposition. In the Seventeenth
circuit, however, Justice Bailey had an
aggressive opponent in James O’Neil.
The latest reports show O’Neil 3,200 in
the lead, 'and he is probably elected. All
these judicialcandidates ran as inde-
pendents.
, Republican mayors were elected in
these cities‘Merrill, Ripon, River Falls,
Viroqua, Mineral Point, Sturgeon Bay,
Black River Falls, Lake Geneva, Sparta,
Tomah, Menomonee, Plymouth, Chippe-
wa Falls and New Lisbon.

The Democrats secured mayors in the
following cities: Watertown, Hudson,
Medford, Prairie du Chien, Beaver Dam,

Chilton and Fountain Eity.

The Issue In Colorado.

Denver, April 8. —— The, weather in

' Colorado was pleasant and a large vote

was cast. Outside of‘ Denver the issues

were, in most cases, local. At Leadville

the election was one of the most ex-

citing in the city’s history. The result

was a. decisive victory for the citizens’
.ticket.

Reports from Colorado Springs say
the result is in doubt, there being a.
difference of only a few votes in the
count. The indications at Cripple Creek
are that the fusion ticket is elected.

The mayoralty contest in this city
was a warm one. It was a. victory for
the present incumbent, Thomas Mc-
Murray, 8. silver Republican.

 

, St. Louis Gaels Republican.
St. Louis, April 8.—The Republicans
.carried the city, their mayoralty candi-
date, Henry Zeigenheim, being elected
by a plurality of about 14,000. With the
exception of four members of the house
of delegates, the entire Republican tick-
et .went through. At St. Joseph the
Democrats carried six out of the eight
wards and'tied in the eighth.. The
council‘ will be a tie if the Democrats
lose the tied ward. At Jefferson City
the Democrats elected the mayor.

Little Interest In Arkansas.

Little Rock, April’s—Municipal elec-
tions were held in all Arkansas towns.
Very little interest was aroused. There
was no opposition to the Democratic
ticket, headed by J. A. Woodson, for
mayor in LittleRock, and a. very light
'vote was piled:- , . ‘

THE EvnnuNG

NOTES 0T THE TEN/ENS

Cabinet Council Held at Athens to
Dismiss the Situation.

A PE MET REPLY EXPECTED.

A Reported Separate Proposal by Russia.
Greek apital \Vild For \Var—Dein-
onstration In Island of Cy-
prus—Turks Under Arms.

Athens, April 8.———The cabinet minis-
ters were engaged ‘until a. late hour in
discussmg the identical notes'which
each of the representatives of the pow-
ers handed yesterday to M. Skouzes,
the (neck minister for foreign affairs,
stating that in case of armed conflict
on the Greek—Turkish frontier all re-
sponsibility will rest with the aggress-
or, and that whatever results may
arise from such a conflict the powers
are firmly resolved to maintain the gen-
eral peace and have decided not to al-
low the aggressor in any event to reap
the slightest benefit from his action.
It is believed that M. Skouzes will de-
liver the reply of Greece to the repre-
sentatives of the powers shortly.

The palaces of King George and of
the crown prince Constantine were
blazing with lights, and the 'city genei-
ally was a mass of illumination in cel-
ebration of the anniversary of the dec-
laration of Greek independence in 1821.

The displays of fireworks were nu-
merous, and in ,all parts of Athens

. there were patriotic assemblages, war-

like orations were delivered and the
speakers were greeted with cheers for
the king and for war.

During the evening there was a
great military tattoo, in which all the
bands in the city at their full strength
tookpart. The whole population throng-
ed the streets, cheering everybody and
everything, and at 1 o’clock this morn-
ing crowds were still parading, singing
patriotic songs and cheering for war
with the Turks.

In spite of this probably unprecc—“

dented demonstration of loyalty and
patriotism, there was no disturbance
worth noting. The utmost good humor
prevailed. The square in front of the
king’s palace was packed with people
until late at night, all clamoring to see
his majesty and shouting for war.

During the day nine civilians and two
policemen were injured in accidents
arising from the crushes which con-
tinued all day.

General Coroneos, a retired military
man and a lifelong agitator, led toe
biggest crowd which marched to the
king’s palace yesterday afternoon, and
it was evident from the excitement
which prevailed that the people are
bent on war at any cost unless all the
demands of Greece are acceded to by
the poo ers.

It is rumored here that Russia has
made a separate proposal to the effect
that if Greece will consent to withdraw
her troops from the island of Crete Rus-
sia will agree to obtain from Turkey the
withdrawal of the Turkish troops from
Crete as soon as the Greek evacuation
is completed, and that Russia will fur—
ther promise that Prince George of
Greece shallbe sent, as a Greek prince,
to organize the Cretan gendarmerie.

Greece Is Obdurate.

Greece, still according to report,
promptlyrejected those propositions.

There was intense excitement at Lar-
naca, island of Cyprus, where the Greek
Independence day gs duly celebrated
by the Greeks and o ers. In the even-
ing there was a torchlight procession to
the Greek consulate, and speeches in fa—
vor of the union of— the islands of Crete
and Cyprus to Greece were delivered.
The Turks were greatly irritated at this
pro—Greek demonstration, and a conflict
between the processionists and Mussul—
mans was with difficulty averted.

At Elassona, the Turkish headquar-
ters in Macedonia, the troops were kept
under arms from long before sunrise.

The greatest tension prevailed during
the morning, but this feeling gradually
wore off as the hours passed, without
any aggressive movement upon the part
of the Greeks.

Both sides are continuing their "air
preparations, erecting earthworks and
other defenses and strengthening their
position in the passes leading into each
other’s territory.

In View of the possibility of a block-
ade of the Piraeus and other Greek ports,
the work of sending war material, am-
munition and stores to the front has
been so actively pushed night and day
since the threat was first made that very
little now remains to be shipped to the
front, so that the ostensible object of
the blockade cannot be attained.

For a month past arms and ammuni-
tion have been arriving here and else-
where from different foreign countries,
and all such consignments have since
been sent where they were most re-
quired. '

Canevare Has Not Resigned.
Rome, April 8.—-It is semiofficially de-
nied that Admiral Canevare has re—
signed or that he has been 'recalled
from command of the international
squadron in Cretan waters.

 

Claim an Inherited Debt.

Altoona, Pa., April 8.——When the now
defunct National bank of Hollidays-
burg was organized, an agreement
provided that in the event— of the death
of any one of the members of the or-
ganization his heirs should be equally
responsible with the survivors in the
bank’s affairs. The heirs of James
Gardner are now being sued by the de-
positors, and this agreement,,which, it
is claimed, was in the Gardner heirs‘
hands three weeks ago, has mysteri-
ously disappeared. The amount in-
volved in the suits aggregates $490,000.

 

Canadian Laborers Favor Retaliation.

Windsor, Ont., April 8.—1-An immense
labor meeting was held here last night.
P. J. Loughrin, general labor organizer
for Canada, was the principal speaker.
He strongly urged the adoption by Can-
ada of an alien labor law and wanted
an export duty placed on pulp wood.
Labor organizations were advised to
agitate for these measures in their own
interest.

 

 

Puddling Furnaces Started Up.
Pittsburg, April 8.—Seventeen\ of the
puddling furnaces at A. M. Byers &
Co.’ 5 rolling mill,’ which have been clos-
ed down by a strike of the puddlers
against a reduction of 50 cents per ton
in the puddling rate, were started to-

- day with nonunion men.
