MAINE ELECTIONS
PRELIMINARY RETURNS REPUBLICAN MAJORITIES NEW YORK, Sept. 15. (Received Sept. 15, at 11.55 p.m.) Preliminary returns in the Maine elections indicated clear Republican majorities in four of the five important offices, but apparently the victory was not sweeping enough to indicate the national trend toward Governor Landon the Republican Party leadership hoped for. With approximately half the votes counted the Republican subernatorial candidate, Mr Barrows, has a lead of over 20,000 over the Democrat, Mr Dubord. On the other hand, the Republican, Senator White, has only 8000 plurality over his Democratic opponent, Mr Brann. The Republicans appear to nave elected the States' three representatives with moderate majorities.
