fs&St

to

CAIITRR It. HAItmSONV

City treasurer, Michael .1. Uransfloid city attorney, (ieorgc A. Trade city clerk, Charles 1). (iastfield. The new council will consist of 3S republicans, 27 democrats and 3 independent democrats.

Mr. Allerton was fairly well sup: porteil by the north and south towns, in Hyde Park, Luke and Lake View, but the west side went heavily against him. Every ward of the west division except the Twelfth pave Harrison a majority over Sir. Allcrton, and the Twelfth ward majority is not much over 1,000. The First, Fifth, Sixth and Twenty-third wards also (rave him sweeping majorities.

Democratic Towu Tickets ISlected, The democrats elected their entire west town ticket by large majorities. Tkey also earr'ed their ticket in the south town and Lake. William T. ltall and the north town republican candidates have been elected, as have been the Lake View republican cadidatcs.

The City !!nlarjrel.

Through the, vote on the question of annexation in the city and in West P.idge and Rogers Park Chicago acquires an additional population of about 3.000 and about two square miles of territory. The vote in the city was overwhelmingly in favor of letting in the two villages, which themselves voted to come in by a substantial majority. Chicago now reaches north as far as tho Evanston line.

The election passed without any unpleasantness. There were some attempts at illegal voting in the First anil Eighteenth wards, and the parties who made the attempts have been arrested and lodged in jail.

Throughout the N(:ite,

in many of the townships and some of the cities of Illinois elections were held Tuesday. As the vote east was light and local issues overshadowed those of a partisan nature the returns afforded slight basis for estimates as to which of the two great parlies is in the lead. Republicans elected the heads of their tickets in the following towns, in some of the rest the offices being divided:

Areola, Atlanta, Charleston, Clinton, Flora, Gttlesbtirg, Greenville, UarvurU, Kewiinec. Macomb, Ntipiervllle, Piano, Quiucy,

us

cola, Vaiulalia, Wauki-stuv Woodstock, Clirlsmun, Warren, Kirliwool and Iwllsboio. Democrats won in the following:

Alton. Uridgeport, Uracoviilc, Lisle, Mason City, Peltfn, Kamsry. Salem, Sltclbyville, Springlield, Oalena, Carthage, Ottawa, Carrol'on and Kock Island.

Wisconsin.

Jlinv.U'itEE, April 5.—The democrats carried this city Tuesday, electing all their judicial candidates and sending Mayor Peter .1. Somers to congress to liil the vacancy caused by the election of .lohnL. Mitchell to the United States senate. Somers' majority will run between 1.200 aud 1,SU0. Ludwig is elected over lioehr for judge of the superior court by about the same figure. Maim, democratic candidate for judge of the probate court, is reelected by over 000 majority, and Judge Johnson, democratic candidate for circuit judge, had no opposition. For judge of the supreme court Webb ran about 1,000 ahead of Newman, as he was on the democratic as well as the republican tickets.

Republican mayors were elected in Eau Claire, Janesville, Kara boo, Washbum, Oshkosh, lieloit, Waupaca, Yiroqua, Stoughton, Edgerton, Kiver Falls, liiaek ltiver Falls and elsewhere. Ashland's populists elected O lveefe by a small majority. The mayors of Madisou, Kaukauna, Manitowoc, Ripon, Kewaunee and Juneau will be democrats. Few straight municipal tickets were elected. Nonpartisan tickets were elected in the cities of West Bend, Antigo and Dojtgeville. -ff .-:v

Itcjmbllranit Carry fit. I,OHIH. ST. LOUIS, April 5.—The election in this city Tuesday resulted in a victory for the republicans. They secured mayor, collector, council and most of the minor otiices, if not all Cyrus 1'. Walbridge secures the mayoralty plum from James Uanuerman by a majority of about 3,000. Henry Zelegenheim, for collector, and Charles Nagel, for president of tho council (republicans), defeat their democratic oppouents by large majorities. The republicans, it. is thought, also secure every one of tlie six eouucilmen and a majority of the house of delegates. Four vears uji'o Noonan (dem.), for mayor, defeated

Butler (rep.) by about 3,700 majority, the. issue being an almost unanimous desire for a change in the method of administering the city government For the first time in the city's history the aristocratic west end voted almost exclusively with the laboring class for Walbridge, he having been ^indorsed by the laboring people as a whole, and the returns from the west end show an increased vote for the head of the. republican ticket

Michigan ItMurm.

DETROIT, Mich., April 5. -Returns of Monday's vote in the state are not all in yet, but there is no doubt of the election of Hooker (rep.) to the supreme bench by a plurality of 10,000 or over, and the republican candidates for regents have won a still greater victory. All the proposed constitutional amendments have undoubtedly carricd, tlie opposition being inconsiderable. 31 InneaotH. .ST. I'AUR., Minn., April 5.—Many of the cities of Minnesota held municipal elections Tuesday." Party lines were not closely drawn, the contests generally hinging on the question of license. At Anoka the democrats and populists united against the republicans and ejected George McCauley mayor by a majority of 124. The combination also elected all the aldermen except one and all the other city oflicers except treasurer.

Donald Grant (rep.) was chosen mayor of Faribault. At Ada W. II. Iiangs was elected mayor, and he pulled through the remainder of the republican ticket. No license won by a majority of 3. At Wabasha the citizens' ticket, headed by C. C. Hirscliev (tietn.) for mayor, was elected by a majority of Hi. At Albert Lea T. W. Knatvold (rep.) was chosen over W. U. ICellar by a majority of 143.

Kansas.

TOPKKA, Kait., Aprils.—For the first time in the history of city electious in the state party liues were strictly drawn in Tuesday's elections. In almost every city the republicans ran straight tickets, and this where they had heretofore not even made an attempt to win at city elections. The weather was universally favorable and all pat ties tn »1e an extra effort to carry the day. The vote polled was the heaviest, for some years, and in the larger cities very nearly 30 per cent of the ballots ca^t w«re by women. ..

Women «1 tho l*oiU.

The adoption of a resolution tit the last session of the legislature to submit tlie granting of full suffrage to women gave a new impetus to the movement, and the women, who already enjoy municipal suffrage, made an effort to bring out a big vote in the hope of making a good start in the campaign that will last until the fall elections. The women hired bands, rode around the different polling precincts and engaged in proselyting with a zeal which made the men contemplate. Tho female voters among the colored people were just as enthusiastic, apparently, as their white fellow citizens, and could be seen in interesting groups at all of the polls. The effect of women being at the polls was that the election was the quietest and most orderly ever held in the state.

In Kansas City Mrs. Potter received but a few votes, and her ticket, the independent, is probably defeated. The vote for the other mayoralty candidates is close, and the result doubtful.

At 1 o'clock a. returns from elections throughout the state indicnte a victory for the republicans and indicate the change of sentiment against the populists. At Leavenworth, where the republicans liave not had a victory for thirteen years, they elected their entire state ticket by a majority of 1,000.

At Wichita tho election passed off quietly, the anti-bribery law working perfectly. The republicans made a straight Tight against the democrats, populists and some dissatisfied republicans combined and won a decided victory. The issue was made, in so far as the democrats and populists wore concerned, on the administration of Gov. Lewelling. This issue was interesting oil account of the fact that this is Gov. Lewelling's home.

Itrimbllcuns Ahettfi la Denver* IV:nvkk, Col., April 5.—Eighty-nine precincts out of lii! in this city give a Xilurality of 2,000 for M. Vauhorn, republican candidate for mayor, over J. t). McGilvray. The populist ticket cut little figure in yesterday's election. The republican ticket is probably elected.

Crop Prospects tn Ohio.

COI.UMIIU.M, O., April 5.—The first crop bulletin ^or Ohio issued this spring appeared Tuesday. Except in the southern section of the stale wheat is in excellent condition. Clover is badly frozen out all over tlie stale. Ground is in excellent condition for plowing, though rain is needed in most parts. Fruit prospects are excellent, except for peaches, which are nearly all killed by frost

and is in the custody of the court His attorneys will appeal tho case to the supreme court of the United States for a writ of habeas corpus, aud it will come up at Washington as soon as possible. The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers will fight the matter to the bitter end and will not spure any expense. They realize that the final decision is of vital importance to their organization. Attorneys and railroad officials think that there will be no more trouble or outbreaks by the men until after the whole matter has a final hearing.

Arthur Will Appeal.

In the case of Chief Arthur, Frank Hind, oue of his attorneys, says that it will be appealed to the circuit court, of appeals, which meets at Cincinnati. The appeal will be made within tliirt.v days and the case will be heard within the next sixty days.

What Ashley Snj's.

(roneral Manager 11. \V. Ashley, of the Toledo, Ann Arbor & North Michigan road, says it is not a matter between the Ann Arbor and its men or the Lake Shore and its employes now, but a question between tlie men and tlie United States and, it will be fought out on that line as long as the issue has been made. It will do them no good to light the railroads now. Mr. Ashley incidentally stated that the Ann Arbor road, under the non-union men. for the last week had been handling 30 percent, more cars than were ever be/ore handled in the history of the road. He is well satisfied with the change.

The strong wind blew the blaze over four squares and at different times tired seven separate dwelling houses, but these fires were quenched without damage. They caused a wild panic, though, that extended all over the city. The police arrested five thieves during the excitemeut.

Hetity l.otirl In Maryland.

CUMIIEIII.AND, Md., April 5.—A few minutes after 6 o'clock Tuesday evening fire, supposed to be of Incendiary origin, was discovered in a stable in an alleyway in the rear of the Mclvaig block on Baltimore street. There were a number ot wooden structures in this alleyway, and as the wind waa blowing half a gale the rear of the block was soon a seething mags of flames, in quick succession the buildings on Baltimore street, occupied by the New York clothing company, by Charles White, dry goods Thomas Coulahan, groceries, and Stern's clothing store were burned. Meanwhile the fire was spreading rapidly tip Mechanic street, and, with the wind showering sparks to remote parts of the city, a wholesale conflagration seemed certain. Mayor Hebb telegraphed for assistance to Washington, D. C. Pittsburgh, Pa. Martinsburg, W. Va. Frederick, Md. Frosttourg. Md. Parkersburg, W. Va. Meyersdale, Pa., and Bedford, Pa. After six hours' hard struggle the fire was finally got under control, having consumed six buildings on Mechanicstrect and seven buildings on Baltimore street The loss is about Sano^oo.

Wealthy Young Man Commit* Suicide by Method. •IOI.uct, III., April.*). The loud report of a gun startled the occupants of the Hotel Monroe a lutle before 11 a. in. Tuesday. A hurried investigation found that the weapon had been discharged ill room 4:J, and as a result Charles W. Goodspeed lay in a pool of blood, deatl bv his own hand. Directly over his heart was a gaping wound, which must have eudered death instantaneous. The suicide strapped a double-barreled 10gauge shotgun to the footboard of his bed, with its butt end to the wall. Then he deliberately knelt down, placed the muzzle against his breast, and with an umbrella reached over and touched the trigger. There had been no death-struggle. The rug upon which he lay wa-s perfectly smooth, and a little stand which stood within a foot of him was in the usual position. In a eon.sjiieuous place upon his dresser lay a half-open razor. It is supposed that he first thought of using it as a means of death, but afterward chose the shotgun. He was worth $150,000 aud belonged to a family well known in the state. He left a letter for his brother, telling how to dispose of his property, but gave no reason for his act. He had just recovered from the grip.
