Increase of 4,000 in the Borough srer the Figures of 1898 New town and Jamaica Lead.

fSnppin.1 to the Eaele.) Jamaica, L. October 22 The total num ir ot voters registered during the lour days Is year, as compared with 1898, is as fol lows: iyou. i8y. First Ward. Long Island City 9.301 8,223 Second Ward, Newtown 7,131 o.iil Third Ward, Flushing 5.371 4,674 Fourth Ward.

Jamaica 6,286 5. 145 Fifth Rockaway 1.302 1,009 Total 29.461 23,422 The heaviest gains are shown in Jamaica and Newtown, the increase in Jamaica being over 22 per cent, and in Newtown over 24 per cent. Much of this gain, the registration officers say. Is due to the increase in population, and is the heaviest in the localities where there, has been the largest growth in population, as at Ridgewood, Corona, Union Course, Brooklyn Hills, Richmond Hill and the Eighth Election District in the Village of Jamaica, also in the Murray Hill districts, near Flushing. Four election districts ot the Town of Jamaica, including the best residence sections, show a gain of 440 enrolled over last year.

The decrease in the Fifth Ward is a result of the cutting off of Lawrence and Inwood two years ago and their transfer to Nassau County. The Increase in the borough is also largely due to the unprecedented activity of the party leaders on both sides. It is conceded that the Democratic party organization was never so compact and so efficient as it is at present in this borough under the domination of Tammany Hall. One of the leaders said: "We expect every man holding an office under our party to get out and hustle for the ticket; if he don't, off goes his head. Tammany 4s.

a Democratic organization and every officeholder under Tammany must get out and make votes for the Democratic ticket or expect to lose his job." The result of this summary order is shown In every election district and in many of them every possible Democratic voter has been enrolled. The Republican registration has been largely increased by the fact this being a presidential year, hundreds of whom in this borough vote only once every four years. The situation seems to be a most puzzling one to the political forecaster. There Is no doubt there Is quite a general discontent among the farmers of Newtown and Jamaica who are discontented with the present low prices of cabbage and potatoes. Two or three hundred of them, it is said, who voted the Republican ticket in 1896 will vote this year lor Bryan.

A large amount of literature, charging the low price of market garden produce and higher price of hardware, building material and dry goodB to the Republican party, is being circulated by the Democrats among these discontented farmers and has induced a number to come out for Bryan. In one election district of Newtown, according to a careful poll made by the Democratic leader of the district, where there was a plurality of 38 four years ago for McKinley, there will be this year a plurality of 70. To offset the hard times cry in the farming sections the Republican managers are putting up in all the manufacturing districts large yellow posters containing In plain ngures tne increase in the exports of merchandise to foreign countries; the increase in foreign and domestic commerce, decrease in failures, statements as to the general mployment of all mechanics and laborers at increased wages, increase in savings banks' deposits. At the Lincoln Club rooms in Long Island City, it ia said that there will be large Republican gains in all the manufacturing districts of the ward and the result will not be far different Irom that of 1896. The publicans also count on large gains in the new and rapidly growing districts of Flushing and Jamaica, the new residents being largely Republicans.

Ingram, the Republican candidate for County Clerk, is making a vigorous canvass in Long Island City and his friends say that minv scores of Democrats in the Astoria section are wearing Ingram buttons on the Inside of the lapels of their coats. He will run considerably ahead of his ticket, they say, in Long Island City and get quite a following among tne tsermeiues in iew town. The O'Brienies are working hard for Con norton. the D( locratic candidate tor county clerk, a brot' iin law of O'Brien and express confide that he will run ahead of his ticket in Newtown. Joseph de Bragga, the Republican candidate for sheriff, is making an active canvass nmong the Italians of Long Island City and In other portions of the borough and it is said has their solid support.

Mr. Cronin, the Democratic candidate for sheriff will receive the active support of the organization in the entire borough. The forecast of the Democratic leaders that Connorton will win by 800 plurality in the county and Cronin by 650 is still adhered to by them. As to the general result they will make no predictions. It is said that the local Democratic candidates will run ahead of their electoral ticket.

Over ton of Port Jefferson was awarded Judgment for $1,000 and costs against the estate of William H. Crosier of Long Island City by Justice Wilmot M. Smith, at the special term of the Supreme Court last Saturday, the amount being a trust fund that had been placed In the Long Island City Savings Bank by the late William H. Crosier, for Overton, but which was drawn out by the de ceased a few days prior to his death. The story as told in court was that the deceased and Overton had been on friendly terms for several years, since Overton had been a tenant in one of Crosier's houses at Greenpolnt.

During the summer of 1899 the deceased visited at Overton's home at Port Jefferson and on July 5 of the same year Mr. Crosier placed $1,000 In Long Island City Bank in trust for Overton, naming himself as trustee of tho fund, notifying Overton of his action and giving him the number of the bank book. Without giving Overton any notice, the elder Crosier withdrew the money on August 31 and died on September 26 following. His son, William H. Crosier, was appointed administrator of the estate, and when Overton demanded the money it was refused.

The judgment carries Interest from date of commencement of the action. Mrs. Overton, who has a similar claim for $500 against the esta'te, has brought suit to recover the full amount. By agreement of counsel Mrs. Overton's case is to abide the final event of the first case, which will probably be appealed.
