HARRISONIS ELECTED DEMOCRATS CARRY CHICAGO IN THE j MUNICIPAL ELECTION. Republicans Win In St. Louis, but Their Opponents Cain IJsi'wlicri.' 111 Missouri. Results of Spring Elections In Ohio. Michigan ami Wisconsin. Chicago, April 7.—The mayoralty j election resulted in u decisive victory i for the Democratic party, its candidate, Carter Harrison, having more votes than ail the other candidates combined. The figures gave Sears (Rep.) 60,000, j Harrison (Dem.) 148.000, Harlan (Ind ) 72,000 and Hesing (Ind.) 18.000. The feature of the election was the strength shown by Harlan. He ran second to Harrison, and although an independent with no organization be hind him he secured more votes than the regular Republican candidate. Judge Nathaniel Sears. One thing that The vote for Hesing was largely from the Germans and came from both par ties He was the nominee of the gold Democrats, although he went before the people on a business man's plat- , form. The Democrats had an excellent organization, their campaign was han dled well and as the Republican ranks were hopelessly split the result was never much in doubt, although Harlan. Sears and Hesing all claimed that they could not be beaten. The leaders of the Republican organi zation were not quite as hopeful as they claimed to be, and it is claimed on ex cellent authority that Sears was quietly traded for Roy O. West, the Republican candidate for city attorney. The cam paign was fought for the most part on strictly local Issues, although the Dem ocrats had a silver plank in their plat form. Carter Harrison is the son of late May or Harrison, who was assassinated dur ing the closing days of the World's fair. The popularity of his father was an immense advantage to the mayor elect in his campaign and contributed to the victory of yesterday. Mr. Harri son is 37 years old and lias never be- , fore held a political office. He was edu cated at Heidelberg and Yale. During the greater part of his business career lie has been associated in the real es- j tate business with his brother, Preston Harrison, but was business manager of the Chicago Times during the four years the Harrison family owned that paper. Democrats Gain In Ohio. Cincinnati, April 6.—The election in Cincinnati yesterday was for mayor and other city officers and members of the board of legislation. The Repub- i lican ticket was headed by Levi C. Goodale for mayor, and the Democratic ' ticket by Gustavc the latter be ing elected by a of 7,320, while the city gave McKinley a plurality of almost 20.000 last November, and Cald well, Republican, for mayor three years ago, a plurality of 6,755. Although local issues controlled most of the municipal elections, yet the gen eral results throughout Ohio show Democratic gains along the lake shore, the river counties and in the interior counties. This gives the Democrats control of most of ihe machinery tor the election next November of state officers and members of the legislature. Governor Bushnell will stand for a second term. Senator Mark A. Hanna is the Republican candidate for sen- i ator. These leaders, as well as ex- Senator Brice. are interested parties, and contributed directly and indirectly to the organized efforts of the can vass. Reports from Canton indicate that the city is Democratic by 500 majority. It gave McKinb y a majority of 682. Several hundred women voted for school board members. Election In Michigan. Detroit, April 6. Returns from the state indicate the re-election of Judge Charles D. % Long, Republican, as jus- j tice of the supreme court and the de- J feat of George L. Yaple, fusion candi date. Charles D. Lawton and William * J. Crocker, Republican candidates for regents of the University of Michigan, were also elected. The vote was light, , and the free silver sentiment was shown in sev -ral >f the cities more i strongly than in the November elec- ' tion. This appears to have been es pecially true in the southern tier of counties. In a few cases, on the votes for city officers, Republican majorities of last fall were turned into fusion vie- j tories. A. C. Maybury, the Democratic ran- j didate, was elected mayor by about 1,000 majority over Captain Albert E. : Stewart, th" Republican. Maybury's election is looked upon as a derided de feat for Governor Pingree, who prac- ; tlcally named Stewart as his successor in the mayor* office after the courts had overruled the governor's conten tion that he could hold the offices of ; governor and mayor both. •Judicial Election In Milwaukee. Milwaukee, April 7.—The election in ( Milwaukee was for judges of the supe- • rior and county courts and for associ ate justice of the supreme court. J. H. Mann, a Democrat, is re-elected coun ty judge, and G. It. Sutherland, a Re publican. is elected superior judge. The total vote in the city was 49,695 against 60,000 in Novemlu-r. There was no op position to Marshall for the supreme bench. Municipal elections were held in the cities of the state, but party lines were not closely drawn, and the varied results have little political sig nificance. Republican* Win In M. Louis. St. Louis, April 7.—The Republicans carried the city, their mayoralty can didate, Henry Zeigenhein, being elect ed by a plurality which will probably be 14,000. With the exception of two members of the house of delegates the entire Republican ticket went through. Zeigenhein polled about the normal Republican vote. The Democrats were badly split and lost votes to the Re publicans. Incomplete returns from the state show Democratic victories. The silver question has entered largely inro the contest. City Election In Denver. Denver, April 7. The mayoralty con- 1 test was a warm one. It was a victory for the present incumbent, Thomas ! MeMurray, a silver Republican, who was running on an independent ticket against a Democrat and a straight Re publican. His plurality was between ! 4,000 and 5,000. TERRIBLE DEVASTATION. The Water* Still Continue to Spread Des olation In the South und Went. Fargo, N. D.. April 7. —The situation is appalling. While the Red river rose only three inches the big Coulee west of the city took a second spurt and went j up 14 inches, flooding the entire west side of town and driving hundreds of people from their homes. The water 1 reaches down to Eighth street from Six teenth street and as far south of the Northern Pacific tracks as the eye can reach. It is a populous resident dis trict, and the effect of the flood is most forcibly felt. All that part of the city south of Front street is inundated. Six blocks of Eighth street have gone out this morning, and the flood from the west side of town is so high that paving on West Front street is going out rapidly. Sidewalks are all afloat and are being used as rafts upon which families are moving to dry land. All along Front street the water is within a few inches of the floors of the : principal business houses, and a rise of j another foot would practically put the j entire city afloat. All bridges are con- j demned, except the Great Northern, ] which is a steel bridge put in last j spring. The waterworks at Reserve station j wereeompelled to shut down, and pumps were started up and are doing all in . their power to supply the city. There ' is much suffering among the poor fam- j i files who have been practically desti- j tute all winter, and this last blow is most serious. A relief committee operat ed jointly by the city council and coun- | ty commissioners established headquar ters and will take care of the poor. It snowed yesterday for two hours. Sec tions of the city that no one ever dreamed could be reached by flood are now under water, and Broadway prac- j tieally is the only dry spot in town* Flood In the Yazoo Country. Greenville, Miss., April 7.—The back water is rising slowly in town. The water in the Boguephalia and Deer i creeks section is higher than in 1890. A slight caving of the river hanks above ; Greenville is reported. Work on all the j levees at Natchez is being prosecuted i with the utmost vigor. All ablebodied men desiring work are getting it. As the worst is yet to come, there is un rest, doubt and uncertainty. The situa tion in the Yazoo-Mississippi delta val ley is growing daily more desperate. The community is confronted with a calamity the like of which has not yet been written in the history of floods. Fully 700 towns are today under water and many are surrounded and cut off. There is no cessation of the constant inpour of flood water into the Yazoo valley from the five rivers hourly del uging the country. Missouri Rising Again. St. Joseph. Mo., April 7. —The Missouri river is rising rapidly again, having j risen 13 inches here in the last 24 hours, j The river is now 10 feet above low water j mark, and indications are that it will I continue to rise. Superintendent Hohly j of the Kansas City, St. Joe and Council , Bluffs railroad, with a large force of | men. is stationed on the river where the Burlington tracks are. and hope to pre- j vent a repetition of the flood of several 1 years ago, when hundreds of yards of track went into the river. DUPES LOST MILLIONS. Many Victims of the Collapse of a Scheme to Get Rich Quick. New York, April 6.—The Herald this morning has the following: The sheriff is in possession of the offices of the E. | S. Dean company, at 35 Broadway. The j men, who said they were hankers and ■ brokers, under that title could not be 1 found yesterday, nor could uny assets he discovered, although the amounts j the concern obtained from small invest- ! ors by cunning advertisements are said to aggregate millions of dollars. There is revealed a most gigantic and j farreachlng combination of bankers and brokers or bucket shop operators whose network covers almost the en- j tire country and which has reduced to a fine art the trick of obtaining money 1 from small investors to he used in al- J leged speculations. It was Deputy I Sheriff Henry Lepskey who yesterday | took possession of the E. S. Dean com pany upon an attachment obtained by I Theodore B. Thompson, who brought j action to recover $1,905.42 from the con- j cern. He found little to seize. There were some articles of inferior furniture, a safe, some books and papers ! and literature of a character to invite investors. Het the concern was incorpo : rated under the laws of New Jersey with a nominal capital of $1,000,000, of which SIO,OOO was alleged to have been paid in. What losses the confiding "lambs'* throughout the country will sustain are variously estimated, some persons familiar with the receipts of the Dean company placing them as high as ! $5,000,000. Thus has culminated one of the most phenomenal demonstrations of the gulli bility of small capitalists within the last decade. Working upon theories similar to those which sent Ferdinand Ward i and his alders and abetters to Ring Sing, these men chose to find their vic tims among persons who had but little and apparently took their unfortunate victims' all. Indianapolis Dupes I.OM- W.'100.000. Indianapolis, April 7. —The E. S. Dean company maintained an office in this city. Within an hour after the patrons of the concern saw In the papers that the company had failed several hundred investors surrounded the office. The fol lowing notice was tacked on the door: "Office closed: agent gone to New York. New York office closed." The agent was Miss M. E. Massey. The company is said to have taken at least $309,000 out of this city alone. For out Fires In Pennsylvania. Williamsport, Pa.. April 8. Forest fires are doing great damage in this and adjoining counties. At Beech Creek, Clinton county, men and women turned out to save the town from an advanc ing column of flame. The mountains in the vicinity of Renovo are ablaze. At Antes Fort farmers and citizens are out in force to prevent the flames from reaching the town. Zanzibar Free* Her .Slaves. Zanzibar, April 7.—The sultan of Zanzibar has issued a decree abolishing slavery. The government will pay com pensation for all slaves legally held. If Zanzibar is unable to meet the full ex pense, it is believed that the imperial government will assist. EMBASSADORS NAMED ANDREW D. WHITE GOES TO GERMA NY, GENERAL DRAPER TO ITALY.

He Is of New England parentage and also a graduate of Yale university. He was president of the Republican state con vention of New York in October, 1861, ANDREW D. WHITE, and was United States minister to Ger i many from IX7S till 1881 and later to i Prussia. Mr. White was also one of the I United States commissioners to Santo ! Domingo and aided in preparing the ( report of that commission. His most recent public work has been as a j member of the Venezuelan Arbitration commission appointed by President ! Cleveland. William K. Draper. j General Draper was born in Lowell, Mass.. and was educated in the public j schools. After working a few years in a cotton mill he enlisted as a private i in the war, and was continuously pro ! moted for various services to the rank of brevet brigadier general, which he ! held in the army of the Potomac. Re turning from the front, he joined his father in business, and has since occu pied a prominent position as a manu ; facturer, being the president or direct or of a great number of railroad and I manufacturing companies. He was a ! delegate to the Republican convention j which nominated President Hayes and I presidential elector at large on the Re publican ticket In ISBB. He is a member I of many prominent clubs and of the j Loyal Legion. Theodore Roosevelt, j Mr. Roosevelt's political career may he said to have begun with his election ! to the New York state legislature In 1882. He was re-elected in 1883 and he | came the Republican leader of the I house. In 1884 he was in the famous : legislative committee of that year that set out to investigate the abuses of j New York official fife, a task which | was largely left for the Lexow coni j mittee to finish. In 1884 Mr. Roosevelt | was a delegate at large to the Repub j lican national convention and an out ! and out Blaine man. In ISB6 he was the THEODORE ROOSEVELT, i regular Republican nominee for mayor of New York city against Henry George and Ah ram S. Hewitt. lie was appointed to the national civil service commission in May, 1889, which position he held until In* was made police com missioner of New York by Mayor Strong in April, 1895. Mr. Roosevelt has attained much prominence as a postprandial orator and a writer on a wide range of topics, including his ex periences as a cowboy in the west. The Admiral Ha* llad Enough. [ Khanla, Island of Crete, April 7.—Ad • mlral Canevaro has asked the Italian ' government to relieve him of his com mand. and the Marquis de Rudini has J replied that in the event of a blockade of the Greek ports the ( admiral's re Guest will he granted. t | HELLENES IMPATIENT. The Greek Soldier* In Tlie**aly Eager l*'or the Fray. Larissa, Thessaly, April 7.—The rele ! bratlon of the anniversary of Greets , independence evoked wild demonstra | tions from the troops here. The (Jreek 1 army will not listen to any suggestion of retreating. The excitement all along the frontier has been intense, and it j has been impossible to foretell from ! hour to hour whether the troops would j not take the reins in their own hands and attack the Turkish positions. A * mob surrounded the palace of Prince Constantin here last evening j and clamored vigorously for war, and the guard had to be increased to con trol the crowds. So intense has been the feeling that a council of officers with the prince was held last night, at which the offi- | cial leaders of the army insisted upon an immediate declaration of war. They I argued that such a course was the only salvation of the throne and dynasty of King George. This decision of the of ; fleers was sent by the prince to Athens. The first serious demonstration was at the close of the services held yester day celebrating the national birthday. The church was crowded, and the sol- j enmity was broken suddenly by tre- : mendous and continued cries of "Hur- ! rah for war!" in which the best known j military men and civilians joined unan- j tmously. The prince showed his disap- ' proval plainly and quickly, and as the | cheering did not cease he abruptly left I the church without taking any further i notice of it. The effect of this incident was to an- , ger the people and troops, and the dem- '■ onstration at the prince's palace last i night followed the spreading of the ! j story. The army, while under a great strain i of excitement, has behaved with re markable calmness so far as its actual conduct towards the Turks has been ! concerned. The orders to prevent any j wanton provocation of the Turkish out- i posts were stringent, and not a gun has j been fired in the camps. It seems safe to say that either war with Turkey or a local uprising on the I Macedonian frontier Is certain. King George'* Relative* Faithful. Copenhagen, April s.—The consulta- ; tions between the members of the Dan- J ish royal family have resulted In a res- j olution to uphold the present dynasty i in Greece. The dowager czarina will ' remain here until the end of the month. | A special cipher telegraphic service has been established between Copenhagen and St. Petersburg, and it is believed that the dowager czarina has succeed ed in inducing the czar to support King George as far as is consonant with the interests of Russia. Leo a* Mediator#. Paris, April 6. The Gaulois reports , that the pope intends to intervene be- : tween the powers and Greece with a i view to effecting, if possible, a peaceful j solution of the Cretan difficulty.
