THE OFFICIAL RETURNS
BRING CONFIRMATION OF THE
GREAT DEMOCRATIC VICTORY'.
ESTIMATE OF THE DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY
IN CONGRESS INCREASING—M - KIN-
LEY EVEN CONCEDES HIS DE
FEAT—LODGE ESCAPES.
New York, November 6.—The Asso
ciated Press reports show the election of
08 Democratic Assemblymen in New York
State and 60 Republicans. As the Demo
crats have 13 Senators against 19 Repub
licans. the former will thus have on joint
ballot SI votes against the latter’s 79,
which insures the electien of a Democratic
successor to Senator Evarts. Moreover
the Democrats claim that two Assembly
districts credited to the Republicans—
namely, Dutchess county, and Mont
gomery county—belong to them.
Elmira, November 6.—Hosea H. Rock
well, Democrat, is elected Representative
in Congress from the Twenty-eighth dis
trict by le^s than 100 plurality. The latest
returns make this showing/although Re
publicans still claim Noyes’ election by a
very small plurality.
NEBRASKA.
Lincoln, November 6.—The official re
ports from two-thirds of the counties in
the State would indicate the election of
Powers for Governor by a small plurality.
Omaha, November 6.—Boyd. Demo
crat, is elected Governor by 4,000 to 5,000
plurality. Most of the Republican State
ticket below the Governor is elected. The
Farmers’ Alliance have the Legislature,
two Congressmen, and most of the county
officers.
WASHINGTON.
Seattle, November 0.—The returns
and estimates from all the counties in the
State give Wilsou, Republican, for Con
gress, a plurality of 6,000. Olympia, for
the capitol, has 17,000. The Republicans
elect 31 State Senators and the Democrats
2. and one county is a tie. The House
stands, Republicans 73, Democrats 15.
ILLINOIS.
Chicago, November 6.—The Tribune,
Republican, finds the result in the State
Legislature to be as follows: Senate—Re
publicans 27, Democrats 24. House—Re
publicans 73, Democrats 76, F. M. B. A. 2.
Joint Assembly—Republicans 102, Demo
crats 100, F. M. B. A. 2. This would
make a tie vote on a joint ballot if the
Farmers Alliancemen should vote with the
Democrats, or give a majority of four
should they vote with the Republicans.
too near a tie for comfort.
Chicago, November 6.—The Demo
cratic State central committee says that
the Legislature, in joint assembly, will
stand: 101 Republicans, 101 Democrats*
and 2 Farmers’ Alliance Representatives"
One of the Alliancemen, Moore, Qf the
Forty-fourth district, has said that he will
affiliate with the Democrats on all party
measures, but will not vote for General
Palmer for Uni tail States Senator. The
Democrats hope to gain another Represen
tative in Hardin county, where the returns
are yet incomplete. This wottld give
General Palmer a majority of one on joint
ballot.
Chicago, November 6.— Chairman
Jones, of the Republican State Committee,
according to the Daily News, concedes the
Legislature to the Democrats, but- claims
the election of the Republican State ticket
by majorities from 6,000 to 8,000. The
Democratic State Central Committee is un
willing to concede the claims of Jones in
regard to the State ticket so long as the re
turns come in from Southern Illinois coun
ties showing heavy Democratic gains. The
official returns from 27 counties, out of 102
in the State, show net gains of over 10,000
for the Democratic State ticket. Senator
Farwell says in regard to the Legislature:
“According to the latest and most reliable
newsjjl can get from Chairman Jo ies, I
will not be the next Senator from Illi
nois; John M. Palmer will.” When asked
if he had giveil uphope he said, “ Oh, no;
I won’t give up till the thing is entirely
settled, but the way it stands now it seems
as if the Republicans were knocked out. I
understand from headquarters that Jones
claims we have 101 and the petnQ
erats 103.
Kankakee, November 6 —The indica
tions now point to the election of H. YV.
Snow, Democrat, as Congressman from
the Ninth district over L. E. Pay so a, Re
publican. The Republicans in the dis
trict concede Snow's possible election.
This is a big victory for the Democrats, as
Payson carried this district by 2,000 ma
jority in 1888.
OHIO. ,
Canton, November 6.—Unless the offi
cial count in Stark amt Holmes counties
changes, McKinley is defeated by 227, a
gain of 2,700 in the district. The official
count in Stark and Holmes connties is now
going on. Holmes county is estimated
1,930 for Warwick and Stark 760 for Mc
Kinley. Medina, official, is 1,388 for Mc
Kinley and Wayne 395 for Warwick. Mc
Kinley said this afternoon to an Associated
Press reporter that, white conceding his
probable defeat by a small majority, he is
greatly satisfied with the result. He said the
issue was between the protective tariff and
a tariff for revenue only, clear and dis
tinct, and nothing else entered into the
canvass. His bill was the center of assault.
The result he regards as a signal victory.
The Democratic majority is over 2,900 in
this district last year was reduced to about
200 this year. He carried his own ward,
and city and county by large majorities,
showing unprecedented gains.
SOUTH DAKOTA.
St. Paul, Minn., November 6.—Inde
pendent Alliance information from eigh
teen counties in South Dakota shows
Louiekes, Independent, for Governor, to
have 3,000 plurality over Mellette, Repub
lican, and Taylor, Democrat. The same
returns eleit ninety-two Alliance members
of the Legislature. The Republicans,
however, claim to have elected their State
and Congressional tickets.
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Concord, November 6.—The Republi
cans concede the election of Daniel, Dem
ocrat, in the Second Congressional dis
trict by a plurality of 50 to 60. This gives
the Democrats two Congressmen from this
State. Both parties claim the Legislature.
The Republicans say they have chosen 13
and possibly 15 Senators, and will have a
good working majority in the House. The
Democrats give the Republicans 12 Sen
ators and claim 11, and say there is no
choice in one Senatorial district. They
continue to claim the House and a ma
jority of the Legislature on a joint ballot.
The Legislature is very close, and neither
party will have more than 3 to 5 majority
on a joint ballot.
IOWA.
Des Moines, November 6.—The nearly
complete official returns for Secretary o.'
State, with a few counties partly estima
ted, show that McFarland, Republican,
has a plurality of 2,18*1. The remainder
of the State ticket is probably divided, as
McFarland leads the ticket. The latest
Congressional returns elect Henderson,
Republican, in the Third district by a ma
jority of 272, and Fleck in the Eighth dis
trict by a majority of 323. Tlse State dele
gation in Congress will stand seven Repub
licans and five Democrats.
MINNESOTA.
Minneapolis, November 6.—The re
turns from sixty-six counties give Mer-
riam, Republian, for Governor, 74,069
votes; Wilson, Democrat, 70,243, and
0*en, Alliance, 48.244, a plurality of
3,826 for Merriam, with 15 counties to be
beard from. It looks as if Merriam was
elected. The Fifth Congressional district
is still in doubt. Castle’s, Democrat, plu
rality over Snider, Republican, iu the
Fourth district is 3,939. Lind’s, Repub
lican, plurality over Baker, in the Second,
is about 1,000. Harris, Democrat, has 1757
plurality over Dunnell, Republican, in the
First district. O. M, Hall, Democrat, has
a safe majority over D. S. Hall, Republi
can, iu the Third district. The Alliance
will probably hold the balance of power
in the State Legislature.
north Dakota.
Minneapolis, November 6.—A Jour
nal Fargo, N, D., special says: Incomplete
returns indicate that the Legislature will
.have 60 Republicans out of 93 members,
the' balance being divided between the
Democrats and Independents. Johnson,
Republican for Congress, claims 6,000 ma
jority, but it may not go over 3,000.
Burke, Republican for Governor, will
have 4,000 majority. The entire State
Republican ticket is elected.
j COLORADO.
Denver, November 6.—Unofficial re
turns from the State give the fallowing
majorities: Townsend 3,685 and Routt
3,643. The Republicans will elect the re
mainder of the State ticket, with the ex
ceptions of Treasurer, Superintendent of
Public Instruction and Attorney-General.
The Legislature on a joint ballot will
stand, Republicans 49, Democrats 26, a
Democratic gain of 14. This insures the
election of Teller to the United States
Senate.
CALIFORNIA.
San Francisco, November 6.—One
thousand, one hundred and fourteen pre
cincts in California, including 173 pre
cincts in this city,’give Markham, Repub
lican, for Governor 84,701; Pond, Demo
crat, 74,567. Markham’s plurality is
10,134. This constitutes the returns from
more than one-half the precincts in the
State.
MICHIGAN.
Detroit, November 6.—It is thought
that the whole Democratic State ticket is
elected by from 6,000 to 16,000 plurality.
The Legislature is also Democratic, the
Senate by about 3 majority, and the
House by some 15 on a fusion vote.
The First, Second, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh,
Eighth and Tenth Congressional districts
have gone Democratic, and the Third,
Fourth, Ninth and Eleventh Repnblican.
The vote in the Eighth is very close, and
may require an official count, but the
present returns give it to the Democrats
by about 80 votes.
KENTUCKY.
Louisville, November 6.—There is
very little change in the election situa
tion. The latest reports show that Con
gressman John Wilson, Republican, has
been re-elected in the Eleventh district by
2,000 majority. J. W. Kendall, Democrat,
has a majority of 24 in nine connties, and
1175 Democratic majority at the last elec
tion in the remainder of the district. The
Congressmen certainly elected are Brecin-
ridge, McCrearv.Dickerson,Paynter, Mont
gomery, Carutb, Ellis, Goodnight and
Stone.
MOONLIGHT CONCEDES HIS DEFEAT.
Leavenworth, Kans., November 6.—
The latest returns give Case Broderick,
Republican for Congress from the First,
the election over Col. Moonlight. Moon
light concedes his defeat.
GOOD NEWS FROM ARKANSAS.
Little Rock, November 6.—Official,
unofficial and estimated returns from the
Second district give the following majori
ties for Breckinridge: Hope county, 1,000;
Arkansas, 670, which will be reduced to
625; Cleveland, 650; Cleburne, 300, with
two townships to hear from; Van Buren,
400. All the connties show heavy Demc^
cratic gains over the vote for Fizer for
Governor in September. Jefferson gives
Langley 3,600, against 4,300 for Fizer, and
Faulkner 650 majority against 500 for
Fizer. The Democrats claim Breckin
ridge’s election by a handsome majority.
In September all the counties in this dis
trict gave Fizer, Republican Union Labor,
2,399 majority. So far as heard from,
Langley’s counties show reduced majori
ties on the Fizer vote, while all the Demo
cratic counties show heavy gains f»t
Breckinridge.
HOW IT STANDS IN CONNECTICUT.
Hartford, November 6.—The Legis
lature stands: Senate, Republicans 8,
Democrats 16; House. 134 Republicans,
117 Democrats—one hot yet heard from.
The Republican majority »n joint ballot,
8 or 10. The Legislature will have to set
tle the Governorship matter. Morris,
Democrat, can only have a popular ma
jority If the Prohibition yote is thrown
Out, otherwise there will be i*G election.
The proposed rejection of the Prohibition
vote is based on the ballot containing the
word “for” before “Governor.” The bal
lots, however, were printed according to
the specimens furnished by the Secretary
of State. Congressmen elected: Lewis S.
Perry, Democrat, First district; W. F.
YY'ilcox, Democrat, Second district; Chas.
A. Russell, Republican, Third district;
Robert E. DeForest, Democrat, Fourth
district.
m’kinley gives in.
Toledo, November 6.—A Canton
special to the Blade says: Lack of tele
graphic facilties in Holmes county pre
vents exact ascertaining of the vote in
McKinley’s district. StarK county gives
McKinley 700 majority and Medina 1,400.
Wayne gives YV'arwick 390 majority, and
the total advices from Holmes give him
1,980. McKinley concedes YV'arwick’s elec
tion by about 300 and this will be verified
unless the vote of precincts in Holmes
which are estimated show unexpected
gains for McKinley.
iireckenridge all right.
St. Louis, November 6.—The latest in
formation from Arkansas is to the effect
that official returns from nine counties in
the Second district, and a clase estimate of
the counties gives Breckenridge about 700
majority. Both parties still claim the First
district. The vote reported is very close,
and it may take the official count to decide
which is elected. In the Fourth district
Terry, Democrat, is elected by a big ma
jority, and while the news from.the other
districts is very meagre, it seems to be safe
to say all of them have gone Democratic
by the usual, if not increased, majorities.
INGALLS WILL HAVE TO STAY AT HOME.
Topeka, Ks., November 6.—At mid
night the Republican central committee
conceded the election of the entire Farm
ers’ Alliance ticket with the possible ex
ception of YVillets, candidate for Governor,
who may be defeated by Humphrey by a
small majority. The committee concedes
that the opposition to Ingalls in the Legis
lature will have a majority. The election
of six opposition Congressmen is assured.
OFFICIAL COUNT NECESSARY.
Denver, November 6.—The official re
turns will be required to determine the
result of the election in this State. The
democrats claim they have elected the
State Treasurer, Attorney-General and
Superintendent of Public Instructions.
The Republicans concede the Treasurer
and a large Democratic gain in the As
sembly, but not sufficient to make a Dem
ocratic majority.
AN ALLIANCEMAN BEATS BOTH DEMO
CRAT AND REPUBLICAN.
St. Paul, November 6.—The latest fig
ures from the Fifth Congressional district
indicate the possible election of Halverson,
Alliance, over Comstock, Repnblican, and
Whitman, Democrat.
