>avs: “Democratic control of the House
is seriously imperilled, it not altogether
lost but as there are compensations for
HI losses, ir it shall turn out that the
Democrats have lost control of the House,
ibey will at least be in better condition
lor the next Presidential canvass through
being relieved of the responsibility of
legislation.’’
HOW THK BOUSE STANDS.
The lierald says of the Congressional
elections: “The House oi Representa
tives chosen on Tuesday, which will as
semble in December, 1887, proves to have
166 Democratic, 153 Republican and 6
Labor members. The Democrats will
have, therelore, a clear majority over all
of 8.”
the tribune in doubt.
The Tribune says: “It does not yet
appear that either party oan claim a clear
majority ot the next House. From about a
dozen districts the imormation is either
'io meagre or so conflicting that the state
m tit of earnest workers must be raceived
with some allowance. In several districts
the official count will be required to deter
mine ilie result, but the probabilities in
dicated by tbe latest dispatches are that
a few members elected disliuctively as
Labor candidates rnav have the balance
of power. The most crushing Demo
cratic losses come just where the free
trade and soft money leaders supposed
timv wore the strongest—in tbe West and
South. Onio, Indiana and Illinois con
tribute to ibe Democratic losses not less
than Virginia and Kentucky. In tne
Eastern Slavs the Republicans have dune
iiol quite as well as was expected. Mas
sachusetts, New Hauipsuire and Connec

ami Now York and New Jersey each give
tb ■ llepublicaus one less gain than was
at first reported. Hut in the West and

Lougiessmnai disirtcM iu tne
State come in slowly, owing to the re*
moteness of some of the counties. The
returns thus far do not change the esti
mates of last night. The indications
are that the Kentucky delegaiion is
solidly Democratic, though it will be
several days before full liguresarein from
the TDird. Ninth and Eleventh districts.
In this (Louisville) the Fifth district,
Willson, Rep., owing to disaffection in tha
Democratic ranks, carried the city by 218.
Carutn, the Democratic nominee, carried
the county by 411) majority, which elects
the Democratic candidate by 216 votes.
The receipt of the announcement of
John G. Carlisle’s defeat was a surprise
and for a long time was not credited. Ex
pressions of regret and sorrow were heard
from every side. A Courier-Journal
special at 6 o’clock stating that later re
turns would elect Mr. Carlisle by about
800 majority was received with great
cheering and there is yet cherished a
hope that Mr. Carlisle Is elected. The
Covington Commonwealth is authority
lor the statement of Mr. Carlisle’s 800
majority.
In the Louisville distriot there was
some dissatisfaction in the party.
Twenty-five per cent, of the registered
Democratic voters stayed away from the
polls, and it is asserted that many ot Mr.
Willis’ friends worked and voted lor the
Republican nominee. The returns are in
to-night and the supervisors’ count gives
the Democratic candidate 40 majority.
The ('ourier-Journal’s figures make his
majority 103. The Courier-Journal’s
specials indicate the election of the fol
lowing Congressional delegation, though
full returns are notin, and it may require
the official vote to determine the result io
the Ninth and Tenth districts: First
district, William J.Stone, Dent.; Second,
Polk Laffon, Dem.; Third, G. W. Hunter,
Kep.; Fourth. A. Y. Montgomery, Dem.;
Fifth, Ashur G. Carutb, Dem.; Ninth, G.
M. Thomas, Rep.; Tenth, W. I’. Taulhec,
Dem.; Eleventh, H. G. Finley, Rep.
Hunter’s majority in the Third district
Is about 57; Caruth’s, in the Fifth, 40;
John G. Carlisle, in the Sixth, about 800.
in the Ninth Thomas’ majority is 183. in
the Eleventh Fitiley’s majority is about
1,000. The results show a Republican
gain of at least two Congressmen in the
State. It is asserted here that the protec
tionists sent money into the Sixth district
to defeat Mr. Carlisle.
THE CARLISLE SCARE.
Cincinnati, Nov. 3, 11 p. m.—Despite
Carlisle’s waning hopes this afternoon,
eucou aging returns have begun to come
in. Kento ngand Campbell counties gave
1,987 against him. "tie Sun has specials
indicating th@ lollowing majorities for
Carlisle in the remainder of
the district: Pendleton county 401,
Grant 400, Gallatin 350,Carroll 800, Trim
ble 300. Boone 300; total 2,051. This show
ing leaves Carlisle a majority of 64 in the
district, and it can readily be seen that
the official count which occurs Friday
will have to decide it.
IIiLiNOIS OUT OF JOINT.
Laboring Men Cut Off Their Noses
by Defeating Mr. Morrison.
St. Louis, Nov. 3.—The latest returns
from the Eighteenth Illinois district Indi
cate that Morrison, Dem., has been de
feated by Jehu Baker, Rep. The returns
are still Incomplete, but St. Clair, Mr.
Morrison’s stronghold, went for Mr. Ba
ker. and it is generally thought that be
will be tbe next Congressman from the
Eighteenth distriot.
Baker’s majority is now placed at 1,000.
He made a very active canvass of the dis
trict, and devoted the greater part of bis
energies to addressing workingmen and
appealing to various labor organizations.
Ue espoused the latter’s cause, and his
protection principles, as opposed to Mr.
Morrison’s tendency to lree trade, it is
said, captured their votes, which doubt
less elected him. Mr. Baker represented
the Eighteenth district in Congress some
years ago.
Chicago, Nov. 3.—The Republican plu
rality in Illinois tor State Treasurer, the
bead ol tbe ticket, is estimated at from
23,000 to 27,000. The result on the Con
gressional election up to this evening was
only a matter of doubt in the Second,
Tenth, lOleventh, Thirteenth and Six
teenth districts. In the Second the con
test between Lawler, Deni,, amtGleaHon,
the Labor candidate, is very close. One
computation of tlio unofficial returns
elects Gleason by 18 votes, while Lawler
claims the distriot by 62 votes. The Re
publicans olaun that Gest, Rep.,
has defeated Neece, Dem., in the
Eleventh district by 400, and
also assert that Gen. Post,
Rep., has defeated Worthington in
tbe Tenth district. Both Republicans
and Democrats claim the election in the
Thirteenth (Springer’s) district. The
vote in the Sixteenth is very close. The
Republicans have gained a Congressman
In the Second district. Win. E. Mason,
andonoison the Eighteenth (Morrison’s)
dist rict, Jehu Baker. The Tenth,Eleventh,
Thirteenth and Sixteenth are at present
represented bv Democrats, and il the Re
puolioan claims to currying three of them
should be verified the net Republican
gain in the State would bo five Congress
men, and If Gleason’s claim to election in
tbe Second is verified the Democrats
would lose six districts in all.
The constitutional amendment abolish
ing the contract convict system of prison
labor in Illinois is believed to be adopted.
The vote for it in all the large cities was
practically unanimous, and advices thus
lar received irora the oountry indicate
that tbe opposition to it among the farm
ers was not nearly so strong as the Labor
element feared.
THE LEGISLATURE.
Complete returns show that the next,
Illinois Legislature will stand: Senate, 82
Republicans, 18 Democrats and I United
Labor; House, 78 Republicans, 66 Demo
crats, 7 United Labor and 2 Prohibi
tionist a.
Later advices show definitely that Gest,
Rep., is eleoted in the Eleventh district
by 400 majority over Nreoe. Dem. In the
Tenth district, Gou. Post, Rep., claims a
majority of 53 over Worthington. The
defeat of Morrison is conceded by the
Democrats, in reply to a telegram Mr.
Morrison himself admits his defeat.
Baker’s majority is 767. Full semi-official
returns iu tne J’hirteenfn district give
Springer, Deni., a majority of 783 over
Uocuoliy, ltep.
A GREAT SURPRISE.
Belleville, 111., Nov.B. —The result
of the election in Morrison’s distr ot is a
groat surprise throughout the district,
particularly to the Democrat*. A mon

Republicans to-night. Morrison carried

The Ohio delegation in the present Con
gress includes 11 Democrats and 10 Re
publicans. while the above showing gives
15 Republicans and C Democrats. The
making ot estimates on the State ticket
has practically ceased. Both headquart
ers of the State committees at Columbus
have closed, and the chairmen are out of
the city. They are reoeiving no news
and making no estimates on the Stale
ticket. A dose estimate of the IteDubli
can majority places it at between 15,000
and 17,000.
A special from Xenia says John Little,
Rep., is elected to Congress in the Seventh
district by 12 majority over Campbell.
Tnis district has been claimed by tbe
Democrats on a majority of 81. The offi
cial vote will be required to settle it.
HURD TO GO TO NEW YORK.
Toledo, Nov. 3.—The majority of
Romeis in the Tenth Ohio distriot will be
about 1,600. Frank Hurd admitted to a
reporter that his crushing defeat closes
his political career in Toledo, and Inti
mated that he might in the future try for
a Congressional nomination in a New
York city distriot.
WISCONSIN BALANCES.
The Gains anti Losses of no Particu
lar Importance to Hither Party.
Milwaukee, Nov. 3.—The general re
sult is no longer in doubt. The Republi
cans have elected Gov. Rusk by not less
than 22,000 plurality over Woodward,
l)em., aud it is probable that it will turn
25,000. Chairman Taylor, of the Republi
can Btate Central Committee, plaoes it at
27,000. These figures are based on returns
from about 5-6 of the precincts In the State.
'The gains are principally in strong Demo
cratic districts. There are Republican
gains in all but a few counties. "(In Gov
ernor the Republican plurality over the
Democratic vote has been increased even
in the Milwaukee district, where the
labor movement has been strongest. The
Legislature is Republican on joint ballot
of 29 over the Democrats end Labor rep
resentatives. The Senate stands 25 Re
publicans, 7 Democrats and 1 People's
party. The Assembly stands 57 Repuoli
cans, 56 Democrats aud 5 People’s.” The
People’s party representatives will proba
bly act with the Democrats. The Repub
licans lose three Assembly seats and
gain three Senatorial. The Congressional
delegation will probably stand 7 Republi
cans, 1 Democrat and 1 People’s party,
though the First distriot is in doubt. The
returns are so meagre that it Is not possi
ble to tell whether James Dooliitle has
defeated Cassell, Rep. Tne Republi
cans have gained in the Second dis
trict, Gen. Bragg’s old district,
where DeLaney, Dem., is defeated
by Guenther by at least 3,000. Guenther
has heretofore represented the Sixth dis
trict and is still a resident oi the latter.
The majority for Bndd, Dem., in the Fifth
das been slightly reduced. In the Fourth
Milwaukee district, wtiich has been
represented by a Republican, Henry
Smith, of the People’s party, lias 8,500
plurality. If Caswell is re-elected in the
First tbe Republicans gain 1 and lose 1,
the Democrats lose 1 and the People’s
party secure 1 Congressman.
THE SIDESHOW VOTES.
Milwaukee, Nov. 8, 11 r. m.—The
latest estimates place the total People’s
party vote in Wisconsin at 25,000, of which
13,000 is in this county. Tbe Prohibition
vote is now estimated at 11,000. This is
2,500 more than Hastings received for
Governor in 1884, and 3,000 less than
Kunouse polled for the same office in 1882.
The returns to-night assure the election
ol Caswell, Rep., In the First Congres
sional distriot by 800 majority.

indicate that Clardy is re-elected by a re

St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 3.—The entire
Republican State tioket has been elected
in Minnescua by 10,000 to 13,000 majority.
A. R. McGill, for Governor, runs behind
tne rest of the ticket somewhat. A. E.
Rice, for Lieutenant Governor, will have
about 25,000 majority. In the First Con
gressional district Judge Win. YYilaon,
Dem., is certainly elected by about 1,200
majority over John A. Lovely, Rep. The
district has heretofore been Republican.
Judge Wilson succeeds Milo White.
In the Second district John Lynde, Rep.,
is eleoted by 8,000 majority over A. C.
Bullis, Dem., and the F'annera’ Alliance,
and succeeds ex-Gov. Wakefield.
In the Third distriot Judge J. L. Mc-
Donald, Dem., has beaten B. B. Herbert,
ltep., by 500 majority, ami succeeds Maj.
Horace B. Strait. Rep.
In the Fourth district, while important
returns are still out, it seems pretty cer
tain that Maj. Edmund Rice, Dem., has
defeated T. B. Gilliilau, the Republican
candidate for re-election, by about 1,000
majority.
In the Filth, Knute Nelson, Rep., is re
elected.
Ou joint ballot the Republicans have a
sale working majority in the State Legis
lature, though it is possible the Farmers’
Alliance may hold the balance of power.
The Alliance vote has been one of the
most serious influences affecting the Re
publican vote. The vote for the Prohibi
tion State ticket while larger than ever
before is still too small to cut any figure,
except in the isolated distriots. The bulk
of it has come from Democrats not iu
sympatny with the low license platform
ot tueir party. It is jet too early to fore
cast the vote of the Legislature ou high
license or United blutes Senator.
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
The Returns Coming In Show a Neck
and Neck Race.
Concord, N. H., Nov. 3.—Returns from
all but 40 towns and wards in the State
give Sawyer. Rep., for Governor, 33,423;
Cogswell, Dem., 33,174; YVentworth,
Prob., 1,878, and Carpenter, Greenbacker,
11. The towns to hear from will
increase Cogswell’s vote so that it will
exceed Sawyer’s. The total vole of the
State for Governor will be less than 69,000,
a tailing off of nearly 14,000 oompared
with 1884,
The result in the First Congressional
district is somewhat in doubt, with the
ohances in favor of McKinney, Dem., al
though tbe Republican State Committee
do not yet oonoede Haynes’ defeat. Gal
linger, Rep., in the Second district, Is
elected by a reduced plurality. The Coun
cil will stand Republican 4to 1. The Sen
ate is Republican 14 to 10, although there
is some doubt ot choice iu one or two dis
tricts, and the House is Republican by a
good working majority.
THE RADICALS AHEAD.
Concord, N. H., Nov. 3, il r. m.—The
Republican majority in the Legislature
will insure the election oi Sawyer a*
Governor, and of Representatives and
Uuited State* Senators.
A HEAVY REPUBLICAN LOSS.
Concord, N. H., Nov. 3,11 p. m.—The
Republicans carried thirteen Senatorial
districts and the Democrats seven. The
results in tne four remaining districts are
in doubt. The returns trom the vote on
Representatives show that 170 Reimbli
oatis and 141 Democrats are eleoted.
Conceding the Democrats the five dis
tricts not heard from, tbe Republicans
will have a majority m the House ot 24.
This, with their majority iu the Senate,
will, give them neurly 350n joint ballot, a
loss of about 25 as oompared with 1884.

MORLEY’B STIRRING STEEdt.
John Morley, speaking on tne resolution
to reaffirm Mr. Gladsione’s home rula
policy, said that the party was on the eva
oi a great battle. The Liberals remained
staunch. Something had been said ationti
conciliation of the dissentients. All ha
could say was that it would be bettor foi<
the present to leave them alone. Tha
Liberals could stand by their old policy*

launched a protest in favor of Ireland o(
such magnitude and moment were toi

pursue the old course.
READY TO AGREE.
Still, Mr. Gladstone and the other menis
hers of the late government wore ready loj
receive a modified policy if it were eup4
port6d by solid reasons. Despite recent
deleats, the Speaker said, be believed Mr„ :
Gladstone was on the eve of a triumph,

A FRESH ARTICLE.
At tho evening session Mr. Morley said)
that this atternoon's meeting bad added *
Iresb article to tho Liberal programme,
namely: An early settlement of the Irisd
question upon an enduring basis, which
was only seuuruble by granting Ireland

Though the government was receiving)
kindly help from bis Radical friend
of Birmingham, he would say noths
ing harsh of the dissident Liberals,
but ne thought it their duty to insist upon
the present government dealing with tha
Irish question without delay. Tne Toryi
statesmen and newspapers now paraded]
Ireland as free from crime. If iree from!
crime, why did they not hasten remedial
legislation instead of, ns Lord Randolph
Churchill hud announced, dealing with
other questions first. The rea<
meaning ot the programme was toi
shelve the Irish question. This wasj
misery, and the pliy of it was that Ireland
would have to learn again the cruel and
desperate lesson she hart been taught a
thousand times, that she is to be treated
with in time of outrage and agitation
while nothing will he conceded to her od
the ground of justice and tranquility*
[Cheers.]
ERIN’S QUIETUDE.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt ascribed
tho quietude in Ireland not to a firm, coin
servative administration, hut to remedial
legislation persistently applied to Ireland
by Mr. Gladstone, and to a reasonable ex
peutation that with the assistance of thqf
Li lie nils Ireland would get a government!
in accordance wttn her wishes. He said;
there was no cause for dismay regarding
the position ot toe Liberal party. As tot
Churobill’s boast I h it he was often a truo
judge on political questions, a man whni
called botn “bends and tails” was likely
to win. The government had turned theirj
hacks on themselves, not only on quas*
tions of franchise, government in Ireland,
cloture and land laws, but even on
question of their foreign policy.
The Berlin treat; was now politely'
shown the door and Lord Cnurchil! had l
entered into heavy recognizances to keep!
the peace. In the whole situation there'
was no cause for the Liberals to despond,
They were masters of the situation, be
cause the necessities of the 'lory purty
compelled the Tories to be instruments of
Liberal policy, which was still iu the as-
Cendant, although the Conservative party 1
was in office. f

EFFECT OF THE DECLARATION.

phatic declaration at Leeds that there
would he no surrender of tne leading prin
ciples of Air. Gladstone’s Irish bill has
sufficed to suppress the threatened mos
tlcn by a small minority In favor conoiU
luting the Unionists, and the conference
results in w idem tig the breach between tea
Liberals and Unionists. The policy ot the!
Uladsiontau leaders is largely Influenced;
by their knowledge of the closer alliance
between Lord Salisbury and Lord liart
ington, rendering all overtures for con
ciliation ot tne latter futile. Hlnoe tho
Cabinet councils were reeumed Lord'
Salisbury, Lord Ilartlngton and Sin
Michael Hicks Beach have daily had long
Interviews at Devonshire House on the
Irish policy.
To-day Lord Uartington called a meet

Unionist Association. It was decided to
hold a general conference at Loudon of
all tne branches of tue provinces to
demonstrate that true Liberalism contin
