SIX NEW STATES TO 13E AD¬
MITTED

New York, Nov. 12. -^[Special.]—The
republican victory last Tuesday becomes
more and more decisive with the later
returns. There is not much doubt that
the republicans will have a safe working
majority in both branches of congress in
addition to the president.
Dispatches received yesterday by the
republican national committee claim that
the official count will give Harrison the
electoral votes of Virginia and North
Carolina as well as those of West Vir¬
ginia. These states are not needed to
elect Harrison, but the republicans are
jubilant at the prospect of getting them.
The first break has been made in the
solid south, and with an aggressive na¬
tional administration the republicans
hope to hold their ground there and
make new conquests in the near future.
But next to the presidency the loss of
the lower house of congress will proba¬
bly prove the most disastrous blow to
the democracy. Its full significance may
not be appreciated at the first glance.
Six new states can be admitted to the
union before tho next presidential elec¬
tion, all of which have republicans pro¬
clivities with possibly one exception.
As one of the most prominent mem¬
bers of the republican national commit¬
tee put it yesterday:
"By having the control of both branch¬
es of congress we will be able to elect
our president without the aid of New
York, Indiana or any of the so-called
doubtful states. Tho chances are that
we will retain possession of the govern¬
ment for the next 25 or 50 years. Proba¬
bly no one in this generation will live to
see another democratic president in¬
stalled in the White House !
“And all because the democracy in
this city were more anxious to elect a
mayor and governor than a there president. I
do i t mean to say that was any
treachery among the democrats here in
supporting Mr. Cleveland, but if they
had put forth the same effort for Cleve¬
land that they did for Grant and Hill,
Harrison w r ould not, have carried this
state. And if New York had been lost I
don’t think we would have stood miifch
chance of getting any The electoral votes in
the solid south. stake was a tre¬
mendous one, and we nave won.”
This gentleman then proceeded of the republi¬ to out¬
line the probable the course four in in¬
can party for next years
trenching themselves in power. His po¬
sition is such as to make his views worth
close attention. He certainly makes out
a very good showing for his side, and
one that cannot be very pleasing to the
democrats.
"In my have judgment,” lost the he control began, of "the the

government for a generation at least.
The new states we will admit into the
union within the next two years will
Imake us absolute masters of the situa¬
tion. There is no doubt that at least five,
and probably six, new states will be
added to the list before the people vote
[again for president. Dakota has been
knocking at the doors of congress for
years. She has more than the requisite
population. Dakota can be divided into
two states, and that is what will be
(done. Ouf party stands committed, both
in congress and in the platform of our
national convention, to the admission of
Dakota and Washington. of territories You will re¬

on me, a somewhat
fashion, I fancied I had blundered some-
liiow, and hastened to make amends for
breaking the ice too quickly.
"I feel confident, in fact, I am assured
that the purported facts, my dear Anna

London, Nov. 12.—Vigilant watch yes¬

The subject of the recent woman mur¬
ders will be brought up in the house ol
commons to-day.
j Sir Charles Warren, commander of the
metropolitan police force, has resigned
[his position. This resignation is due to
the popular outcry over the commission¬
er's failure to capture the Whitechapel
murderer.
London, Nov. 12. —[Special.]—The
police have arrested a person whoso
mind is evidently unbalanced, and taken
him to jail, in connection with the latest
'murder. It is claimed that a trunk full
of bloody implements were found in his
.lodgings in Wilton court. The parti c
ulars could not be learned,
l Gen. Warren, chief of the metropoli¬
tan police lias issued a proclamation of¬
fering a free pardon to any accomplice
the Whitechapel murderer may have
had, provided ho will give information
which will lead to the murderer’s appre¬
hension. It is learned that the woman
'whoso mutilated body was found in the
Dorsett street house yesterday, was a
native of Limerick, Ireland. She emi
grated to Wales, where she married a
collier, who.was subsequently killed by
an explosion. After that she drifted tc
London.
A young woman who knew the mur
dered woman well says that about 1C
o’clock on the night the murder was
(committed she met her, and that she
said Bhe had no money and could not
get any. She would never go out anv
more, but would do away with herself.
Soon after they parted; and a man, who
is described as respectably dressed, came
up and spoke to the murdered woman,
'and offered her money. The man then
accompanied her home to her lodgings. the
Her little boy was removed from
room and taken to a neighbor’s booae.
The boy lias teen found and corroborates
this, but says he cannot remember the
man's face.
Another curious circumstance worth
mentioning is that the murder was not
made public until 12 o’clock.
Mrs. Pattmier. who seems to be a cred¬
itable oerson, tells walnuts in Sandy's
Row, near to the scene of the murder.
She states that at 11 o'clock to-day a re

Philadelphia, Nov. ! 2.— [Special. ] —
It would appear that the public ha* got
somewhat weary of hearing about the
mysterious Keely motor, judging from
(the many attempts of late to force the
[irrasciblc old inventor to make patent his
alleged discovery.
Court of common pleas No. 8 has just
made the rule to issue an attachment
against John W. Koely for contempt of
court in not obeying the order of the
court absolute. It also discharged the
rule to dissolve the injunction as well as
the rule to open the sealed package
which is in the hands of the court, and
which is said to contain a description of
the Keely motor. It also continued the
Injunction against Keely Until further

Under tiro "attachment issued for In¬

A peculiar occurrence is reported from
Coalton, this county, where party feel¬

justice of the peace on the democratic
ticket, found it necessary in sustaining
discipline to administer a good, old-fash¬

for fighting, and the job was very thor¬
oughly done, especially so as to two or
three of the boys. As two of the boys
were of democratic parentage and six of
republican proclivities it was circulated
that the whipping was done for hurrah¬

boarding-house, tried forced the door and
shouts to puli him out amid encouraging

to render the occasion interesting to Mr.
T)avi«. He, however, met the mob with
a chair, vigorously handled, and by this
time cooler heads came on the scene and
peace was restored. While it lasted,
however, it was little less than a riot.

amination gave bond for nis appearance
