VOL. VII. WM. lIINLEY IS ELECTED. Carries all the So-Calted £h*ubt- M States, JOSES STILL CLAIMS THE COWRY, But He’s Talking Through His Hat, and Stamping Himself a Jingo. BRANTLEY BEATS MILIKIN BADLY. Only Gets Four Counties, Brantley Gets Fourteen.—Cof fee Goes Republican. There seems to be no longer any reason lor doubting that Mr. Bryan was badly defeated in Tuesday’s elec tion, says yesterday’s Savannah News. Early last night Chairman Jones still insisted that Mr. Bryan had been elected. The returns received by the Morning News up to 5 o’clock Thurs day morning seem to knock the props from under Mr. Jones’ claim. West Virginia and Indiana have been conceded to the republicans by the democrats. California is also given over to the republicans. Kentucky’s vote is probably very close, but the republicans claim the state, and Henry Watterson’s paper, the Courier-Journal, concedes the state to McKinley . Illinois, lowa, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin appear to be surely republican. It has been the policy of both par ties to claim everything in sight and out of sight, hut this morning’s d's patches seem to clear up the situation pretty well. The following table, compiled from the returns received by the Morning p to 4 :30 Thursday morning, shews the probable vote in the electo ral college: Bryan McKinley Alabama 11 Arkansas 8 California 9 Colorado 4 Connecticut 6 Deleware 3 Florida 4 Georgia 13 Idaho 3 Illinois 24 Indiana In lowa 13 Kansas 10 Kentucky 13 Louisiana 8 Maine 0 Maryland 8 Massachusetts lo Michigan 14 Minnesota 9 Mississippi 9 Missouri 17 Montana 3 Nebraska 8 Nevada 3 New Ham 'shire 4 New Jersey 10 New Yore 30 North Carolina 11 North Dakota 3 Ohio 23 Oregon ( Pern <ylvania 32 Rhode Island 4 South Carolina 9 South Dakota 4 Tennessee 12 Texas 1-1 l Hah 3 Vermont 4 Virginia 12 Washington 4 west Virginia 6 Wisconsin 12 wy tilling 3 174 273 THS OOUCLAS BREEIE.

For the first time since the war the good old county of Coffee has gone republican. This result was brought about by a fusion deal between the negroes and the populists. They went in “cahoot,” and now the populists have got the offices in Coffee and the negroes have got the “cahoot.” THE ELECTION IN GEORGIA. According to latest advices, Georgia gave the democratic national ticket a majority of about 25,060 in the election of Tuesday. The consolidation of re turns will not show a great variation from these figures. A solid democratic congressional delegation was elected. Mer-Vickcrs.
