DEMOCRATS CARRY CITY ELECTIONS from page one) legislative content* still in doubt. Michigan—Mayor Couxena was re- ( elected in Detroit. Pennsylvania. —■ Philadelphia and Pittsburgh showed republican strength ex-mayor Magee being returned to that office in Pittsburgh by 50,000. William I. Shaffer, republican, defeated Eugene C. Bonnlewell, democrat, for the supreme court. Many smaller counties, because of local republican rebellions showed democrat!* strength. In Lancaster a democratic coalition ticket beat the republican organization. •New York, Nov. 9. —(Special to Daily Democrat). —The democratic ticket backed by Tammany Hall has swept New York city by the greatest plurality ever rolled up in a municipal election, it was shown today. John F. Hylan was elected mayor over Henry Curran by about 420,000 according to latest estimates today. Others on the democratic ticket were carried into office by overwhelming majorities but none reached the I vote polled by Hylan. Besides sweeping New York city, ' the democrats have gained seventeen seats in the legislature, five of them ! outside New York city and gained in . upstate municipal elections. Republicans, however, apparently 1 won the only state office to be filled. On the basis of returns early today Judge William A. Andrews was leading ex-Justice Townsend Scudder fori the Court of Appeals. Scudder beat Andrews two to one in New York city I but Andrews upstate lead probably will. carry him into office by about fifty | thousand. Albany elected a democratic mayor. I William S. Hackett for the first time in twenty-two years. Syracuse elect- 1 ed John Walrath, a democrat for the I first time in fifteen years. In Schenectady George R. Lunn, democrat, was elected for the fourth time. Ro-I ' Chester elected a republican backed, by the drys. In Buffalo, Frank Schwab I I a brewer was elected over George S. i Buck, in a non partisan contest. ' Four amendments to the state con- • stitution were voted on but only one providing a literacy test for voters appeared to have a chance to carry to-; day. The big democratic victory in Al- . bany was against the Barnes “ma- ! chine.” OIL TAKES BIG BOOST (United Press Service) Findlay, 0..
