Lindsay was elected mayor of New York as the tally of yesterday's election moved into its final stages early today. Lindsay came surging: from behind around midnight to overtake a lead built up by Democrat Abraham D. Beame, and went on from there.

Conservative William F. Buckley Jr. was far back but was obviously the spoiler. Lindsay was shown to be winning as a loner. Beanie's running- mates for Council president and controller, Frank D.

O'Connor and Mario Procaccino, respectively, were substantially ahead of Lindsay's team of Timothy Costello and Milton Mollen. The secondary candidates en the Conservative line, Rosemary Gunning Moffett and Hugh Markey, were going nowhere. In the mayoral race, with 4.065 of 5,098 election districts tallied, the vote was: Lindsav Beame 829.561; Buckley 259,970. O'Connor had a lead of better than 150.000 over Costello. With 2,170 of the 5.098 districts reporting, the Queens DA had 532.342 to 378,513 for Costello.

I. Hi AN One of the biggest upsets in the city appeared in the making on the basis of early returns last night as Puerto Rican-born Herman Hadillo, Democrat, held an early lead of neary 6 to 5 over the incumbent Bronx Borough President Joseph F. Periconi, a Republican running with in the controller contest His for Mollen. Lindsay's victory in Democratic New York automatically elevated him to front rank of the leaders of the moderate Republican wing in the national party. But Buckley's run showed a strong conservative bloc in the city.

On the Democratic side, O'Connor's victory put him back into contention for the Democratic nomination for governor next year. But Beanie's defeat shadowed, at least, the prestige of Sen. Rob 'i F. Kennedy, who campaigned vigorously for him up to the last minute. The tabulation of the vote ran very late.

At 10:30 P. lines were reported still waiting to get to the election machines at more lhan 16 polling places in Manhattan and in scattered areas el-ewhere. All voters on line when the polls officially closed at 9 P. M. were entitled to vote.

He told them he felt "quite confident about the outcome." Buckley, who figured to be a significant factor in the election on the strength of the votes he took away from Beame and Lindsav, curtailed his election dav activities in deference to the death of his father-in-law Monday in Canada.
