DEMOCRATIC GAINS. 1 (Continued from Pagel,) | they wm not haVe a majority in the senate, which will prevent the passage ot what 1 are known as “rippers” or any partisan legislation. The Republicans claim 17 of the 36 senators, with 18 conceded to the Democrats and one doubtful. They claim 67 members of the house, con ceding 48 to the Democrats, with four in .doubt. If the Democrats should se cure all of these five doubtful members, the Republicans stftl claim a majority of two on joint ballot. In the event of the Republicans con trolling the legislature, it is conceded that Senator Marcus A. Hanna of Cleveland will be returned to the sen ate. In the event of the Democrats coatrolling the legislature, it is almost equally certain that John R. McLean will be made senator. The residence of the former, in Cleve land, and of the latter, in Cincinnati, are in constant communication with their respective headquarters in this city. Allen O. Myers of ‘the Democratic ■tate headquarters says: . \ "Not one of the fusion Cincinnati ticket will vote for Hanna. A Repub lican says two Republican representa tives elected will not vote for Hanna. He can be elected without them if the Republicans have 74 on joint ballot, as now claimed. ” The following.statement of the situa tion in Ohio has been made by Mr. J. R. McLean, upon request: “The Democrats believe that they have elected the state and legislative ticket An honest return Will show it” REPUBLICANS CARRY IOWA. The Democrat* Concede Election by Over Fifteen Tii<>U9Hnd. i Des Moines, Nov. 3.—Returns were* •low in reaching headquarters of the state central committee. Chairman McMillin of the Republican committee contends that Shaw’s plurality will reach more than 30,000. Reports from SO counties give show a plurality of 20,- 230 aud estimates of the Republican committee is that the other 4b will do as well. It is expected by Chairman McMillin « tjiat the plurality will reach at least 12,000 to 14,000 more when returns are received frofn the entire state. As to the legislature, the Republicans claim 63 in the house, out of 100, aud 40 out of 50 in the enate. Chairman McMillin’s estimate of the tote is: Republicans, 230,000; Democratic, 200.000; Prohibition, 7,000; gold Demo cratic, 5,000; Populist, 3,000. The returns at first showed a net Dem ocratic gaTn of 32 to a precinct. Later this was reduced to Returns at first showed 19.000 plurality for Shaw, an average Democratic gain of 400 per county. This was reduced later to an average of 30Z to a county. The Democratic state committee con cedes Shaw’s election by 16,000, but gains are claimed in the legislature. Chairman Walsh admits that there will be 39 Republicans in the senate, count ing the newly elected members and holdovers. The Democrats claim 38 members of the house and the Republi cans concede them 87. GREAT DEMOCRATIC GAINS. Republicau L>att<i<tlide* <»f Past Year* In New York State Keteried, Albany, Nov. 3.—The completed re turns from the state demonstrate that the Rebublican landslides of the past two years have been reversed, if not by giving as large a majority for the Dem ocrats at least changing something like 240,000 votes. Governor Black’s plu rality in the state last year was over 200,000. John Palmer, the Republican secretary of state, won the year previ ous by over 100,000. The indications are that these enormous pluralities have been swept away and a reverse plural ity of between 80,000 aud 50,000 is given. The greatest surprises of the returns are the great gains made in the ossem- TRE STAR OF HOPE. ’ 1“ I had lost all hope and gone to my father’s to die,” said Mrs. Molie Evans, of Mound, Coryell Co., Texas. “I gave birth to a baby a year ago, the sth of June last,” she adds, “and seemed to do very well for 8 or 9 days, and then I began to feel very bad, my feet began to swell, my stomach was all wrong and I seemed to suffer with every thing that could be borne. I was in bed 5 months and there was not a day that it seemed I could live. We had the best doctors that our country afforded. I was a skeleton. Every one that saw me thought that I would never get well. I had palpita tion and pain in the heart, terrible pain in my right side just under the ribs, terrible headaches all the time a bearing down sensation ; a distressed feeling in my stom ach all the time ; could hardly eat anything and it looked as if I would starve. All the time I would take such weak trembling spells, and it seemed as if I could not stand it. There were six doctors treating me when I commenced taking your medicine. I had lost all hope and gone to my father’s to die. I commenced taking Dr.' Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and his ‘ Fa vorite Prescription ’ together, and I took them regularly until I. felt as if life was worth living again.” “ I weigh more than I have weighed for ten years. My friends say that I look better than they ever saw me. The first two bot tles did me more good than all the medicine I had taken. My stomach has never hurt me since. I can eat anything I want and as much as I want. If you want to use this in favor of your medicine, I am a living wit ness to testify to it, and will, to anybody who wants to know further of my case.” I -y g , I indigestion ' dyspepsia biliousness and the hundred and one simi- i • lar ills caused by impure blood • i or inactive liver, quickly yield : ; to the purifying and cleansing ; ; properties contained in JofynstSn’s Sarsaparilla QUART BOTTLE. ■ It cures -permanently by acting : naturally on all organs of the ; body.

Re publicans explain these gains by at tributing them to the heated municipal campaigns and the trading of votes. The morning returns indicate that the Republicans will still control the assem bly, although by a very largely de creased majority. More surprising, perhaps, than the I returns of the state and assembly dis tricts, was the results of the municipal campaigns in flic large cities. New York, BuffalOj Rochester, Binghamton, Syracuse, Utica, Albany, Troy and Schenectady elected Democratic mayors. CHICAGO CONGRATULATES. Windy City Demoorat* Send n Message to Mayor Robert Van Wyck. • Chicago, Nov. B.—Membeis of the Cook county Democracy gathered at their headquarters to listen to the elec tion returns. President Powers, who was among the first arrivals, ordered the banner that was borne through the streets of New York placed in the cen ter of the room. Judge Vau Wyck’s picture was tacked above the chairman’s platform amid three cheers from the| assembled braves. As the election returns were being re-1 ceived many of the members departed I from tne room temporarily. They has- I tened to secure their long coats and i high hats iu anticipation of a march,; and the baud was uiso notified to put on. its best costumes and blow the dust otii of the bass trombones. "Tammany is a sure winner” came from the chair. “This message an nounces positively that our trip did it.” A telegram was then forwarded to the Tammany quarters iu New York. The message was as follows: “The members of the Cook county Democracy forward their congratula tions to the greatest political organiza tion in the world. Those who stayed at home as well as the men whe marched through the streets of Greater New York congratulate the mayot also.” Several speeches were then made, af ter which the members formed in line, and to the rune of “There’ll Be a Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight,” pa raded the down town streets. CLOSE VOTE IN COLORADO. May I'ake the Official Count to Determine ho Him a Mo* J >rity. Denver, Nov. 3.—The result in Colo rado is still in doubt; The News says that William H. Gabbert, Democrat- Populist candidate for judge of the su preme court, is probably elected by 8,000 majority. The Republican says that Charles D. Hayt, silver Republican, will have 3,000 majority or mure. Hayt carried this county by about 7,000 ma jority. The entire silver Republican ticket appears to have been elected in this county, although The News claims the re-election of Sheriff Webb ou the Civic Federation and Democratic tickets. The fusionists appear to have de feated the Republicans in El Paso county, of which Colorado Springs is the county seat, and in Leadville and Lake county the silver Republicans made a clean sweep. MARYLAND IS DEMOCRATIC. Republicans Lack Six Votes of Having a Majority in the L>e<*i'*lature. Baltimore, Nov. 3.—With semioffi cial returns from all the counties in ths state, except St. Mary’s aud Calvert aud fairly good estimates from these, ths Democrats appear to have elected enough members-to the next legislature to give them a majority of five on joint ballot and to assure them a United States senator to succeed Senator Gor man. Official returns may ba necessary to deciae the position of some of the coun ties and these may alter the result, but from the best obtainable figures at this time the Democrats appear to have a total of 61 legislative votes, while the Republicans have 56. The state senate will be Republican by a probable ma jority of four, while the Democrats ap pear to have captured the lower house by a majority of nine. VICTORY FOR FUSIONISTS. Pomt, the Kepublican Supreme Coart Judge < Amiid-tle, I* Defeated. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. B.—Additional precinct returns from the state indicate a fusion plurality exceeding that of 1896, which was about 11,000. At fusion headquarters the claim of a plurality ot from 20,000 to 25,000 was made. Secretary JSiaer of the Republican oosuujtgM. .irouM not concede thit o« THE ROME TRIBUNE.

Twenty In the Legislature. Louisville, Nov. 3. Kentucky wheels into the Democratic column again by a majority of over 25,000. Re ports from all over the state show that Samuel J. Shackleford, the silver Dem ocratic nominee for appellate court clerk, will have fully 25,000 if not 30,- 000 majority and that the silver Demo crats will have a majority of over 20 in the two houses of the general assembly. Louisville, that has not gone Demo cratic for three elections, gives Weaver, the Democratic nominee for mayor, about 2,500 majority, and with three exceptions the whole municipal ticket has been elected. • RESULT IN PENNSYLVANIA.

OPERATION For the Cure of Piles Is not only intensely painful, dan gerous to life and very expensive, but in the light of modern medical research and since the discovery of the Pyramid Pjle Cure a surgical operation is wholly unnecessary.
