COLLEGE, REPUBLICANS SHOW SLIGHT LOSS II CONGRESS. - BRYAN PROBABLY CARRIED NEBRASKA New York, Nov. 4.—At 1 p. m. the returns practically assure wu.’Iam Howard Taft 314 votes In the elector al college, while William Jennings Bryan will receive 169.

New York, Nov. 4.—Although Bryan carried the Solid South, Taft made a greater advance over any republican vote polled there since the mconstruc- tion days.

Tho complexion of the New York State legislature indicates that tile republicans hava 62 members while the democrats have 30, a gain of 2 for the republicans. A republican will succeed Senator Platt, of New York. Taft seems to have swept the Pa cific and Rocky Mountain states with the possible exception of Nevada.
