The liabilities, actual and contingent, about $56,000. Highest of all in Leavening Power.—U. S. Gov’t Report, Aug. 17, 1889. ABSOLUTELY PURE 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.
