All Other Dem ocrats Elected. Reports frpm all Parts of the United Stated States Shows Great Gain for Demo cracy. Twenty-one Con gressional Districts Taken from Republicans. Ty Associated "Press. New York, Nov. 7. Charles E. Hughes. Republican, has been elected governor of New York by a plurality of 52.000. according to the figures available at an early hour. William R. Hearst, his opponent, had a clear plurality in every borough i f greater New York, but Hughes vote up Si ate overcame this and left the R publican candidate with a margin of votes as already given. Hearst's total plurality in Greater New York, as indicated by the unoffi cial returns early today, was 7,956. Hearst also polled 641 plurality in two ir.. State counties. Hughe's plurity up State, according to The unofficial returns, with 196 dis tricts missing, was 129,686, leaving a Total plurality for the Republican can t.i late of 52,089. The missing districts luay vary this general result by a few thousand votes either way. Democratic Victory. Almost complete returns from Great er New York for the State offices, ?!.ov.- that aside from governor, the Democratic State ticket carried the greater citv by pluralities of from 1ZIX-:-' to 145,000. This would indicate that unless the publican candidates for offices be-lov.- governor ran ahead' of Hughes above the Bronx a full Democratic State ticket, except governor, . may have been elected. Returns from the up State counties are as yet too incomplete to warrant anything like an accurate forecast. Plurality of Hughes. Sorue districts are still missing in Deieware, Essex, Hamilton, Ontario, Oswego and St. Lawrence counties, but estimating these six counties as giv ing Hughes a plurality of 19,100, the plurality of Hughes, outside of Greater Xew York, is 129,630, or a plurality in the State of 52,674. Revised returns, some of them based cn estimates, indicate a plurality of vhout 135,000 for Hughes abouve Bronx This would make his plurality in the State about 60.00. The correct figures fun West Chester county in favor of Hughes make up the most of the dif-. ifience from the former estimates of Hughes' plurality. Republican plu lalities in Albany, Columbia, Cortland, Erie, Madison, Montgomery, Oneida, Onondaga, Rensselaer, Schenectady and Tompkins show Bruce, Republican Icr lieutenant governor, about 700 r hcarl of Hughes. On the basis of 1S5,000 up state plurality for Hughes this would seem to show Bruce's elec tion by a narrow margin, but as the Democratic candidates for other state offices ran ahead of their tickets they ;;;r;ear now to be elected, including Jackson cf Erie county for attorney general. The Next Congress. Chicago, Nov. 7. jLttsyctLCiies to the Associated Press up to 7:45 this morn ing, show that the Republicans have elected 211 members of the sixtieth Congress and the Democrats 155, with 20 districts missing. May Have Recount. Louisville, Ky.; Nov. 7. The race in the Democratic primary for United States Senator, between Senator Mc Creary and Governor Beckham, is so close that a recount may be necessary. Incomplete returns this morning show that Governor Beckham is slightly in the lead. Samuel W. Hager appears to have a safe majority for the nomi nation for governor. New Hampshire Election. I Concord, N. H., Nov. 7. Slow elec tion records show no material change in the results. Floyd, Republican, led Jameson, Democratic, for governor by an estimated plurality of 2,220. A ma jority vote is required and the elec tion presumably will be thrown into the legislature, which it is believed will be Republican. Democrats Win in New Jersey. Trenton, N. J., Nov. 7. The revised returns show the Democrats will have the house of assembly by 31 to 29 and that the Democrats have elected four Congressmen in New Jersey, a gain of three. The legislature, however, will be Re publican on a joint ballot by 44 to 37. The re-election of Senator Dryden is considered uncertain. Kansas Election. Topeka, Kan., Nov. 7. 8:30 a. m The result of the election for governor in Kansas is still in doubt. Both sides claim the victory. As to Next . Congress. Chicago, Nov. 7. Despatches to the Associated Press. up to 9:45 a. m., in cluding the returns from some very close districts, show that (with 19 dis tricts missing) the Republicans have elected 212 members of the sixtieth Congress and the Democrats 155. BIG GAIN IN CONGRESS Democrats Have Gained 21 Congres sional Districts Held Now by Repub licans. By Associated Press. Washington, D. C, Nov. 7. With the count going on, results so far shows the election of 214 Republican con gressmen; 155 Democrats, with 17 dis tricts to be heard from. There are 3S6 seats to be filled in the house, and should the Democrats get the remaining "17 they would still not have control. The most sanguine predictions put out by Chairman Sherman, previous. to tne election was that the Republi cans would retain control of the House by 50. As the returns stand now, the Demo crats have gained 21 districts held in the present congress by Republi cans, as follows: Illinois, 2; Indiana, 1; Iowa, 1; Mis souri, 4; Nebraska, 1; New Jersey, 1; New York, 1; North Carolina, 1; Ohio, 3; Pennsylvania, 5; and Wisconsin, 1. . Republicans Win in "Colorado. Denver, Colo., Nov. 7. The re turns are incomplete but are suffici ent to show the election of the entire Republican State, congression al and judicial tickets and a Republi can majority of 30 or more on the joint ballot in the next legislature which will elect a senator to succeed Thomas Matterson. Delaware Election. Wilmington, Del., Nov. 7. On the joint ballot the legislature stands Re publican 36, Democrat 16. The elec tion of a Republican successor to United States Senator J. Frank Alee is assured. Statohocd Carried. Santa Fe, New Mexico, Nov. i. The returns are still too few and scattered to give any estimate of the majorities for joint Statehood, but they will be between 4,000 and. 7,000. Missouri Democratic. St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 7. Notwith standing the returns from the State are coming in with the proverbial tar diness, from what is known the fact seems established that Missouri , has again returned to the. ranks of Democ racy. .- - ,. Chairman Evans of the Democratic State Committe, hold to the claim of. a majority of at least 18,000. But until all the returns are in, especially from the outlying districts in the Southern half of Missouri, the result is not con ceded at the Republican state head quarters. Gov. Beckham Leading. Louisville," Ky., Nov. 7. An official count of the incomplete returns that Governor Beckham is leading by about 2,000 votes. No returns have teen received from 12 or 15 coun ties in the mountains, but they are expected to increase rather than diminish Governor Beckham's lead. The election for congressman from the Tenth District, is still in doubt, and the election of Congressman Rhinock, in the sixth is not yet assured. California Election. San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 7. The returns from the interior of the State are not yet complete, owing to the length of the ticket and the great amount of scratching in almost ev ery county, the count progressed very slowly. The most reliable esti mates of the pluralities obtainable indicate that Gillette, Republican, has been elected governor by about 10,000 over Bell, Democrat. Arizona ciBtiiuna. Phoenix, Ariz., Nov. 7. The vote for joint Statehood in Arizona is es timated to exceed 15 per cent of the total vote and may be even less. This calculation is made on the par tial returns from ten out of thirteen counties. Maricopa county, with ceven county precincts is missing, voted for jointure' 390; against 2,958. The legislature is strongly Demo cratic. Outcome In Kansas. Topeka, Kansas, Nov. 7. Complete returns from 71 out of 105 counties received at the Republican State head quarters give the plurality of 5,000 for E. V. Hoch for governor over W. A. Harris, Democratic nominee. The Democratic State committee still claims the election of Harris. The Republicans have probably elected a working majority for the Leg islature. Outcome in India. Indianapolis, Ind. Nov. 7. More complete returns received at both the Republican and ; State headguarters, show some surprising changes m the result in Indiana. There seems to be no question that the Democrats elected five out of 13 congressmen which is a gaih'ot three and the latest reports dicate that the thirteenth districts is in doubt, is now represented by Abra ham D. Brick. There is also doubt as to the result in the second district now represented by John C. Chaney. George W. Rauch defeated represen tative Fred Landis in the eleventh dis trict and John A. M. Adair defeated representative George Cromer 'in the eighth. The legislature is Republican on a joint balllot. Democrats Win In Kansas. Kansas City, Kan.. Nov. 7. At 1 o'clock this afternoon reports received by the Star from 80 counties out of 105 give W. A. Harris, Democrat, a plural ity of 729 over E. W. Hoch, Republi-, can for governor of Kansas. i THE PHILADELPHIA ELECTION. Reform Movement Inaugurated Last Year Received Severe Blow. ' By Associated Press. Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 7. The re form movement in Philadelphia and throughout Pennsylvania inaugurated last year as the result of the Phila delphia gas lease fight, received a severe blow in yesterday's election. The latest figures show that every where in the city and State the fu sion party -. opposed to the regular Republicans was either badly de feated or had its last year's vote greatly reduced. , ' ' Edwin S. Stuart of this city, Re publican and the Republican candi date for governor against Lewis Emery, Jr., fusion nominee, ran very strong everywhere and his plurality may reach 75,000. DISTRICT ATTY. RESUMES WORK. Examined English Immigrants Person ally To-Day Denies Report of Rough Treatment to Girls. District Attorney A. E. Hoi ton of Winston arived in the city this morn ing after having returned to vote, and a few hours later resumed, his" inves tigation of the matter of the English immigrants who are being held here, pending the - decision of the Washing ton 'authorities. " -.- - , Mr. Holton stated emphatically to a News reporter today' that --there was no truth in the reports that Special Agent McLaughlin had been guilty of any rought treatment towards the im migrants. The mill men of this section how ever are demanding that there shall be fair play, and . are not willing that any sort of unofficial investigation shall be the cause of charges against them. ' Today Mr. Holton examined person ally a number of the immigrants at the federal building in order to get the truth of the reports and charges -made, and also to secure the facts first hand, as he states. A report has been sent out from Washington that the mill men will be indicted for conspiracy ; with Mr. Costello, but Mr. Holton is not inclin ed to give much credence to these, he stating that they are not official. The District Attorney has been sent here, as it appears, to get the facts and then to take such action as he may deem just, "but Mr. Holton has given no intimation one way or the other up to the present, as to what the outcome will be.

Democratic Nominees well Sup ported. Republicans Poll About 400 Votes. Bond Issue Goes Under on Ac count of - Light Vote. Only About 3,000 Votes Polled in the County.- Twenty-seven out of thirty precincts from which official returns have al ready been received indicate that the vote polled yesterday will - amount to at least 3.000. . On account of the fact that three precincts have not yet reported it is utterly impossible to give officially the total vote which any can didate received. The board of canvassers consist ing of a 'judge from every precinct in the county will make the official can vass at a meeting to be held at the court house to-morrow after which time the vote polled and how many each candidate received will be defi nitely known. Reports so far indicate that the Democratic majority amounts to at least 2,100. In the 27 precincts heard from Webb received for Congress 2,359 and his opponent, Roberts, received 339; giving the Democratic candidate a majority of 2,020. In the same pre- cincts Pharr for the Senate received 2,398, and McDonald his opponent, 426; giving Pharr a majority of 1,972. These facts give reasonable grounds for predicting 2,100 majority for the Democrats as the remainder" of the ticket received practically , the same support as the above named. Failure of The Bondjssue. Failing to receive a majority of the registered votes of the county the bond issue went down yesterday. Twenty-five precincts have been heard from on this question and these gave 1,636 for and 294 against the issuance of the bonds. Paw. Creek, Box 1 voted gainst the bonds to the extent of 32 votes. Deweese - gave a . majority against. All the other precincts gave the measure a majority of votes cast, but the cause of failure was due to the fact that it required two-thirds of the registered votes of the county to pass the issue and ' only about 3,000 out VICTORY Vote in Yesterdays' Election 2 5-i O 13 L, . -- CD g g Q O Ph Z 189 9 147 189 187 72 205 96 166 204 206 130 136 108 135 135 35 165 19 115 163 167 59 123 14 90 123 123 J, 39 68 10 50 68 : 68 23 28 10 27 28 27 10 143 16 118 144 145 40 182 13 155 178 187 40 107 102 106 106 5 87 1 64 ". 64 64 64 ; 48 1 47 48 ' 48, 1 44 ' :"41 43 43 2 44 44 44 44 64 , 59 66 64 1 69 10 ' 67 69 69 11 37 1 35 36 36 2 O 189 165 123 68 26 144 182 107 90 I 64 ; 48 44 37 7 I 56 38 I 56 56 24 7 7 j 55 5 61 . 11 53 I 53 5 41 I 53 53 19 I 5 5 43 5 34 1 I 58 49 J 59 55' 16 1 4 9 I 54 43 21 f 60 47- 59 59 25 13 I 15 59 12 12 45 25 86 j 86 24 69 87 85 39 24 24 f 87 21 43 8 j 52 7 49 52 52 9 51 7 21 27 52 70 71 54 70" I 69 . 69 ,54 54 52 67 53 103 3 38 28 38 24 28 28 40 30 38 30 36 24 69 71 25 52 -71 70 40 23 24 69 22 35 37 2 61 61 .60 62 63 3 61 . 3 27 32 29 j 29 4 28 j 29 28 J 4 j 4 4 28 4 30 1 of 4,500, approximately, voted at the election. h or the House of Representatives the Republican niminee, Jake F. New ell received about the same number of votes that he received two years ago when he made the race for Congress against webb and received 732 votes, W. C. Dowd received a majority of more than 1,300. The result of this race was distressingly disappointing to the Republican forces who for several days past had been claiming such unusual support. The defeat of the Republican - Party was not more thoroughly overwhelming, and the loy alty of the Democrats of the county no more rigidly tested than in this race. A Decided Democratic Victory. The local complexion of the results is very gratifying to the Democrats of the county.; From top to bottm Mecklenburg voters stood squarely by the nominees in the primary, with some few exceptions. When the Dem ocrats made known their- wishes then, there was no uncertainty about the result of the election yesterday. The loyalty, of the party is no : more dis tinct in any county of North Coralina, or in- the South, indeed, than in old Mecklenburg. The vote is much light er, however, than was hoped for, many who had registered taking no part in the election. Every precinct in the county gave a decided Democratic ma jority except one, LemJey's, which followed its past record in giving the Republicans the larger vote. Incomplete Returns. The returns from the county, for sheriff, registrar of deeds, and tax col lector have not been received in full. These will not be known until to-morrow when the board of canvassers meet and make out the official record. A few precincts have made no returns of the vote on the legislative, con gressional, - and judicial ticket, but all of these will be given to-morrow af ternoon, if possible. The News' Bulletin Service. The public manifected considerable interest in the bulletin service fur nished by the News last night. This paper made arrangements for receiv ing the bulletin service of the Western Union Telegraph company, besides its regular Associated Press and Long-DIs-tance Telephone service. The bulle tins were read from the front of the office as they came in from all parts of the country in which : an election was being held, and many ; remained until midnight to hear the last mes sages. Interest in Politics. There was much enthusiasm mani fested locally in the outcome of the gubernatorial race in Ner York be tween Hearst and Hughes and as the bulletins came across the " wires the two candidates and their, individual prospects were discussed, until the last message wasfiled. Local senti ment seemed to be decidedly in-favor of Hearst. In the result of the race in the 8th congressional district be tween Hackett and Blackburn even more interest was manifested and local Democrats were much gratified with the outcome.

Yesterday's election resulted in a victory for Dem- ocrocy in Buncombe county, the aver age majority bemg estimated at from 550 to 800. Hon. W. T. Crawford, candidate for Congress in this Congressional dis trict, has probably won over his op ponent, Prof. J. T. Britt, by a safe ma jority of about 700. His majority m Buncombe, with sev en precincts unreported is 608, and it is expected that Buncombe will give him a majority of not less than 700. ' Senator Chas. A. Webb has been re turned to the State Senate and his ma jority, with seven precincts not yet reported, is 865. It is probable' that Hon. Mark W. Brown has been elected solicitor of the Fifteenth judicial district. His opponent polled 2,127 votes in Buncombe county, while Solicitor Brown polled 1,763, but the strong Re publican county of Madison failed to yield and although Transylvania gave Mr. Roberts a strong vote it is thought that Mr. Brown has been elected by a very email majority. , Practically no scratching of the Dem ocratic candidates has been done ex cept in the race for solicitor. Mr. Brown received a much larger vote in Buncombe county than even he expected, while in Madison county, the banner Republican county of Western North Carolina, even Mr. Brown's most intimate friends supported Guy V. Rob erts. The Solicitor's majority in Madi son seems to have been less than 350 while in the last election his majority was more than twice that number. Reports from the other counties in the district indicate that Mr. Craw ford has received a majority in every county. In Marion he was given 800 more votes than his opponent and he has been as highly complimented through out the district. From the returns it appears that T. M. Duckett has led the ticket. He received 2,548 votes. Captain A. B. For tune followed with 2,512. KITCHEN WINS BY 6,000. Forsyth Went Democratic Report From Surry, Stokes, Davie, Yadkin, Davidson and Ashe Counties.

Yadkin is Republican by 600. Davidson went Democratic with the exception of Sheriff. Dorsett, Democrat being defeated. Ashe county gives Hackett a major ity. IREDELL DEMOCRATIC. Iredell County Surprises Folks by Her Big Democratic Maj'ority. Special to The News. 1 Statesville, Nov. 7. Yesterday's election was a surprise to both parties in Iredell. The Democrats had been hopeful but the strenuous work of the Republicans had made Hackett and even some county officers doubtful. A conservative estimate'of Hackett's ma jority in the county is 900, a gain for the Democrats in every township ex cept three. - The whole county ticket was elected as follows : Z. V. Long, senator, T. M. C. Davidson, Z. V. Tur lington, representatives; J. A. Hart ness, clerk of court; M. C. Williams, regis Jer; William A Summers, sheriff; L. O. White superintendent of schools. Governor Glenn's vote in 1904 was 2147 in the county. A conservative esti mate of McNeill and Hammer yester day is 23,50. 20 GIRLS RESCUED. Terrified Girls Rescued by Firemen From Burning Store.
