VKW YORK.
Who War. the Numerous Nmuiif.fi-Tbo
Scenes of tit. Day.
New Youk, November 2.—The election in
New York to-day ia for Judge of the Court
of Appeals and for members of the Legisla
ture and for tblrty-fonr Congressmen. The
nominees for the judgeship are Judge
Charles Daniels, Baffalo, Republican;ltutus
YV. Peckham, Albany, Democrat; and Wm.
Jay Gray, Prohibitionist. The contest is
between the two first named, almost noth
ing having been heard of the Prohibitionist
candidate. There hu been little
campaign work dene for either
Daniels or Pockham. Both are recognized
as eminently worthy the position, bat it is
believed that Judge Daniels, who has long
been prominent on the Supreme Court
benob, will attract many Demooratio votes.
The jVorldjhas practically supported Mm,
mainly became it oonsidera Peckham an
•nti-Hill nomination. The vote for jndgo
will be oompaped Fitb the gubernatorial
▼ota of lust year.
Tb “•*?* will vota also npon the
question whether a convention for
revising the constitution shall bo
held. A majority of all tie votes cast at
tha election is required for on affirmative
decision. It is believed this will be obtain
ed, as both parties favor a convention.
Mach more intereat centers in the election
of the 128 members of tha Aasembly, as the
next Legislstare will eleot a successor to
Benxtor Miller. Bjlh parties are making
special efforts to carry the day. The Re
publicans have a decided advantage. The
Benito of thirty-two members, which
holds over, haa a Republican majority
of 8. The Democrat*, therefore, mast elect
CJ Assemblymen to oontrol the United
8tales Senatorship. The Republicans need
only Cl. The lost Legislature consisted of
78 Republicans and 50 Democrats. B. nator
Miller, who desires re-election, has taken
an active part in the Assembly osmpalgn.
In the Congressional elections, it is be
lieved that the parties will about hold their
own, though the result in several districts
is considered doubtful Each party now
has seventeen Representatives. Worthy
of nils is the nomination
by the Democrats of William Bonrke Cocb
rone, in the Twelfth district, and of Gen.
B. P. Bpinola in the Tenth. Both mon an
uncompromising in their hostility to civil
service reform and to President Cleveland.
Thomas F. Grady, who bitterly opposed
Cleveland at the Chicago convention, and
afterwards espoused the Butler cause, is
running os on Independent-Democrat
against Tim Campbell who hat the regular
Democratic nomination, and has been In-
domed by the Republicans.
8. 8. Cox will probably be elected In the
Ninth. In the Thirtieth district (Roches
ter) the Democrats have renominated Theo
dore Bacon, who wits a Republican until
1884. It is claimed that there will be a
close contest between him snd C. 8. Bake r,
the present lb publican member.
The prohibitionists have made nomina
tions in nearly every Congressional district,
bat it is not believed that any man on their
ticket i ill be elected.
In New York city the interest in thermay-
orality contest overshadows all others. The
registration is larger than ever before in an
off year, being within five thousand of that
of 1884.
The labor organizations were first
in the field, and nominated Henry George,
the well-known writer and teacher on ao-
cial and economic problems. Ills nomina
tion was indorsed by Irving Hall Demo
crats, and many aocUa reformers, pretehen
and enthnsiaata flocked to his standard.
They were joined by all the Socialists,
Communists and Anarchists in tha city,
who hoilad George's candidacy os a great
atop forward in the levelling propaganda.
The George movement seemed to be mak
ing great headway, when, to the surprise of
the entire community, the Temmeny Detn-
oerate nominated Hon. Abram 8. Hewitt,
who hee repreeented the Tenth district in
Congress for many years. This nomina
tion waa seconded by the County Democra-
ey, and an aggressive campaign was
