I have a mace with slow attack speed that has 122 DPS (physical damage 41-81). It also has 11 electric, 3 ice and 3 poison damage. What would the actual DPS of the mace be? Is it higher than that of an axe with average attack speed that has 138 DPS (physical damage 51-101)?

According to Reddit (not a great source I know), the DPS of a weapon should already include any +dmg abilities that are built in. From the question it seems like your mace has those +dmg built in rather than being gem added, so the overall DPS of the Mace would be lower than the Axe assuming the attack is made against a target with no resistances or weaknesses.

If the additional damage is coming from Gems, that has to be calculated sperately according to this answer and its source the Torchlight Wika.

{ [( min dmg + max dmg) / 2] + gem dmg } / speed = DPS
