FAILURE OF THE ELLIOT FIGHT The Political Complexion of Both the Coun cil and the School Board Is Left as It Was Under tho Last Elec tionVote by Wards. Tho battle of tho ballots is over and tho Held is strowu with many victims of Demo cratic political strategy, but it was of such u character that, notwithstanding tho untcr- nfied won In threo of the five wards, tho lie publicans still have control of tho llorough Council and School Hoard. In the former body tliey still hold sway by 8 to 7 and in tho latter thotr majority is the same as dur ing tho past year. In other words the Dem ocrats who, at first glance, appear to have won a sweeping victory have only held their own in the ward lights and made one gain in the borough fight. They elected School Directors to succeed Messrs. Conry, Mauley and Devitl. all Democrats, and t'uuncilmcn to succeed Dougheity, (Jalligan, Stanton and Kane, who were also Democrats, so that al ter nil their boasting about thorough organiza tion and a fat campaign fund, and in spite of the most desperate battle tho party has ever put up in tho Fourth and Fifth wards, they mako no gains in ward allairs, the Itcpub licaus having elected successors to the re tiring Republicans in their two wards. As to the borough ticket tho Democrats gain but one point, electing a High Constable to suc ceed .Tames Emanuel. In olecting I'loppcrt Borough Auditor they havo only held their minority representation on the board. In truth, tho Democrats were really beaten yesterday, because they lost their big fight in tho feec.eud ward. A victory thcro would have given them a majority on the Borough Council. The defeat of Llliott is almost as much a disappointment to many of tho most prominent and active leaders ol tho Demo cratic party as the loss of the Fourth and Fifth wards would have been to them. Mr. liochm's majority is gieatly below what it was last year, but yesterday the voto was light by about ten per cent, and tho Demo crats put up a fight that was us well planned and us full of vigor as it possibly cuuld bet It is true that it snowed last night, but the fall was not near as heavy as sonio people supposed, and the Democrats haven't a chance to go sleighing. Under tho results of tho election the llor- ough Council will organize on Monday March Snd, with tho iollowing members : First ward William McGuiio, Martin Lalloy mil Daniel L'oakley. Second John 1' Uoehni, F. V.. Magargle and James McKI henny. Third T. J. James, D. H. Jaiuos, C. T. Slniughn. Fourth A. D. (iable, Patrick Kornsand Conrad Dnglert.

THE CONTEST IN PHILADELPHIA. "Combine"' and "Antl-Comblno" Followers Work Together to Defeat the Muni cipal League Wllllamsport Elects a Prohibition Mayor. Philadelphia, Feb. 10. Local olcctlons rrcro held In this stnto yesterday. Sovornl Interesting contests wore wnged in tho larger cities which olocteil mayors. In this city tho ticket was headed by John L. Klusoy and Arthur Blddle, respectively Ilepubllcnn and Domoeratlo candidates for city solicitor. Klnsey was elected by a majority that will probably exceed tho Doinocrntlc voto. Tho campaign wns note worthy for the especially bitter fights In many of tho wards.dtio to tho fnctloual split In the Ilepubllcnn ranks, tho efforts of tho Municipal Leaguo, unci hero and there to the activity of the Democrats.

In tho Fifth wnrd a bitter light was waged ngalnst James H. Anderson, whoso course in solcct council for years past has displeased tho reformers. Never theless ho was returned by over 1,000 ma jority. In other 'wards the result was equally discouraging to tho Municipal Leaguers. The followers of Senator Quay, who aro known as "Anti-Combiners" wore ex pected to help tho Municipal League in its effort to defeat tho "Combino" candidates, but they appear to havo voted and worked for tho regular Republican tlckot, with tho result that the reformers wero "snowed under."
