A. noUceable fact Is that Hnghes had lost most heavily in the strongest Republican districts, while Bryan made the poorest show ing in the Tammany strongholds. In nine New York county districts classed as Republican. Hughes ran ll, 80S behind Taft. In ten Demo cratic districts south of Forty-second street Bryan wag S7.81S behind Chn ler.

''- x - --- - Tho falling' off in the total vote for the. two regular parties was sp proximately 18,000 from 104, and of about 17,000 from 10S.

Kings county and Queens this year was 18,688. Vs against 11. IS in 10. In New York county this year the vote for Debs was 11,780, which was considerably smaller than ' had been expected by person who had studied tho growth of ; the Socialist movement ' There werw rerorts . that some of the Tammany district leaders who failed to "deliver" a big Vote to Chan ler would be deposed and younger men 'substituted for, them.
