In the New England and eastern state*
the republicans have swept things.
Morton carries New York for governor by
about 150.UU0 p urality over Hill; Strong is
elected mayor of New York city over Grant,
and the republicans nave won in two-ttiirds
of the congressional districts. It w-is a
genuine landslide in New York. Every tains
democratic went to piwes.
lu the New England states everything is
republican. Massachusetts sends a solid re
publican delegation of thirteen to the house.
Connecticut sends a solid republican dele
gation.
New Jersey goes overwhelmingly republi
can. electing ot'ly three democrats out of
eight congressmen, and electing a republi
can legislature which chooses a successor
to Senator McPherson, democrat. This wiil
probably mean a republn an senate us well
as a republican house of representatives.
Indeed the republicans gain in every east
ern state. But the greatest democratic
slump of all is in New York, where every
thing gm b against the parly.

Baltimore, Md., November 7.—One of the
peculiar tilings about the election in tins
suite yesitiiday i 3 tiie fact that tiie demo
cratic counties which have secured tiie
largest share of tiie federal offices have
gone republican.
Carroll county, which hns the collector of
customs, tiie best office in the stale; the
special deputy collector and a large number
of minor offices, went republican for tiie
first time since 1866, and Hartford county,
which lias the codector of internal reve
nue and more minor places than any other
county in the state, in spite of the usual
large democratic majority, went, repub
lican.
Senator Gibson’s county, Talbot, which
has eighteen men in good federal offices,
also went republican; and other counties,
with large number of offices to their credit,
went republican, or showed a large failing
off in the democratic vote.
It is noticeable also that the precinct in
Howard county in which Senator Gorman
resides ami votes gave a republican ma
jority for the first time in a quarter of a
century.
The returns from the First Maryland
congressional distiiot are yet incomplete,
but the repub.nans admit that the totals
will indicate tiie election of democrats—
Henry for the short term and Miles for
tiie tifty-fourth congress. The republican
gam on tiie face of the returns, wiil, there
fore. be three congressmen—William B.
Baker in the second, Charles E. Coffin in
the fifth and George E. Wellington in the
sixth.
That the Maryland democrats will have
any representation in the tlity-fouith con
gress is not certain, however. The re
paid can state committee claim to have
evidence of tiie grossest frauds in the first,
third and fourth districts, and will, there
fore, contest the seats of Mi es, Rusk and
Cowen. It is not improbable that the re
publican* will win their case, i.specially
in tiie third and fourth districts. It is
claimed that tiie frauds in these districts
aggregate nearly 4,ax) votes, whereas
Rusk’s and Cowen's combined pluralities
are but 1,516.
Tiie republicans yesterday made gains tn
every ward in the city except two and car
ried many wards tiiat have hereto
fore been regarded as democratic strong
holds Eor the first time since 1867 the
republicans will have absolute control of
tin.- council. The first branch of the city
council wi.l have a republican majority oi
two. Nevet before have the republican*
swept Maryland as they did yesterday.

that tiie republicans have carried every

It was not figured on, and Ils effect on the
United Stales senatorial succession can
not yet be determined. It looks as if every
County has elected their republican ti-k.u.
as well as giving a plurality on the state
ticket. Then pluralities in all the congres

The republican cyclone swept through
the west, and with results just as fatal
to the democratic candidates as in New
York and Pennsylvania.
It is all one way through Ditto, Indiana
and Illinois, and, up in the northwest, where
democratic managers have fondly counted
on building up the party, the results were
just as disastrous. From the far west
the Pacific slope—the returns are neces
sarily very much delayed on account of the
difference of time, but th£> <.-arly advices
all point to republican gains and repubiican
victories all along the line.
The great 80,000 majority which signalized
the victory of Ohio’s present governor seems
to have been eclipsed, and the Indications
now are that the famous Vallandingham
majority us 101,000 wiil be knocked out. Os
course, this carries with il corresponding
and proportionate gains in*the congressional
districts, and ail tiiat tiie republicans have
claimed for Ohio seems to have been
realized.
Indiana is not a state of big majoritioe,
but the republicans seem to have a plenty
there, and their claim of a gain ot six
cuiigrcbsmen is prmty well establisned.
Tiie defeat of Mr. Bynum is one of tiie
notable features in tiiat state, as is the de
feat of theatric Tom Johnson in Ohio. In
the <’levein .il <ii“ ••<•'- It .< rnpiy snowed.
From 30,000 to 50,000 is the size of the re
publ.can majority in Illinois—that is tiie
repubiican estimate, and nobody seems dis
posed to dispute it. Here Mr. Springer
was turned down. The election of Erank
Lawler to congress, as an independent
democrat, is taken as a direct rebuke by
his friends of President Cleveland’s ac
tion in refusing to appoint him postmaster
in tiie face of the phenomenal support he
had for that pla-e. Mr. Cuiiom will suc
ceed himself in the senate, unless some
other republican wrests the laurel from ills
brow.
Democratic hopes of gains In Michigan
have received what might metaphorically
be called a black eye. Tiie republican vic
tory there Is almost unanimous. In Wis
consin and Minnesota the republicans swept
the day. In lowa it was all one way, buj
one democrat getting in. lu the newer
states the same condition of affairs exists.
Nebraska is an oasis, showing a condi
tion of affairs that will probably result in
Hon. W. J. Bryan being sent to the senate.
On tiie slope, the republicans seem con
fident of success all along the line, ane al
though the democrats are still claiming,
there seems little doubt that those states
have also gone the way of all earth.

.-ervative estimates al.owing liberal lee-wiy
for pooulist inujorit.es in county districts
give the state to the republicans by a plu
rality ovtr the populists of 20.000. There
appears to be no doubt that the republicans
have carried six of the seven co gtvsslonal
districts, with the chances areat.y in favor
of their winning the remaining one This
gives them seven congressmen sure, im- ud-
Ing one from the stale at large, a gain of
fi\e, with the probability oi a gain of six.
Chairman Breid nthal. of tiie people’s
party state central committee, is not yet
willing to conced ■ the state to the republi
cans and continues to claim it by a small
plurality. Returns received at republican
headquarters from the seventh congression
al district indicate the election of Cluster I.

ul'st and democratic candidate, by 1,500 ma

The republicans also c'aim tiie election of

Indianapolis, Ind., November 7.—Returns
received at the republican state commit
tee headquarters today indicate that the
repub leans will capture every one of the
thirteen congressional districts by clean
majorities. The only one in doubt is the
eleventh. In the fourth, Watson has car
ried two counties and the defeat of Holman
by at least 5u6 seems sure. In the fifth
Cooper has been beaten and in the third
Traceweii, republican, has pulled through
by at least 1.506. In the sixth Johnson is
elected without a doubt, and in the seventh
Henry lias defeated Bynum by at least
2,500. The returns for tiie other districts
are still meager. From the figures already
in, however, such gains are indicated tiiat
it is very doubtful if the democrats will
capture a single congressman. Returns
from the state show that Indiana has gone
republican by about 45.6U0, perhaps 5J.U00,
the legislature being surely republican.

Ridianapolis, Ind., November 7. —The re

Ilurrinon on the Election.
Indianapolis, Ind., November 9.--General
Harrison has thus expressed himself re
garding the election:
“It is the most extraordinary political rev
olution the country has ever witnessed.
Wherever there was a free ballot tiie vote
of confidence given in 1892 to tiie democratic
!*arty (if one was given) has been recalled,
and a vote of final repudiation substituted.
The incoherence of the democratic party
was revealed the moment power was given
to it to deal with national affairs. The in
sincerity of its platform mak» rs was ex
pressed when ’Be it enacted' took the place
of ’Be it resolved.’
"For thirty year* party expediency has
been substituted by its leaders for party
principles, and expediency had as many
faces as there were congressional districts.
Every eccentric cross-current of popular
prejudice was followed as if it were tiie
gulf stream. No position was too wild or
violent for a democrat mount. Classes
were created and inflamed to outbreak and
disorder. In one state a debauched curren
cy. and another a socialism that was near
to anarchy were given a bed. Property, es
pecially mills and factories, was invested
and assaulted Ir one section, and in another
trusts were secretly coddled.
"The old democratic doctrine favored the
levying of custom duties to the limit of an
adequate revenue was abandoned. A defi
ciency to be made good by bond issues or
by internal taxes, was referred to the in
cidental protection that adequate customs
duties would give. The silver question was
dealt with in the most vacillating and irre
sponsible manner. Mr. Cleveland describ’ d
the situation perfectly when he said to Mr.
Wilson: They (the democrats) are down
cast under the assertion that their party
fails in ability to manage the government.’
■ A vast majority of our people believe in a
protective tariff—never so many and never
so strong as now. They differ as to rates
and schedules, but not as to the principle.
They believe in reciprocity as the first meth
od of getting foreign markets. They believe
In a progressive and American foreign poli
t cy. The working men voted their prejudices
In 1892: this year they voted their patriot
ism and their love of home. The enormous
falling off in the demo- atic vote every
where Is no less emphatic in its meaning
than the majorities. The lesson is ‘trust
the people.’ The duty, exercise the offices
they have confided to us with the highest
fidelity and patriotism. Atout Indiana’.’
Well, language fails me. I am proud of
bur.”

Chicago. November 7.—Late returns show
that the republicans have elected their
state ticket by a plurality of at least
W.tKJO. Cook county goes republican by ma
jorities ranging from 25.000 to 40,0 X).
The new legislature wiil be republican
in botli branches by a majority of from

Tiie returns from live precincts are missing.
The incomplete returns give Belknap, re

crat. As tiie missing precincts are strongly
democratic, it is possible that Congressman

San Francisco. November 7.—There seems
to be no doubt this evening that California
has gone democratic so far as the govern

probably elect a republican lieutenant gov
ernor and most' of the other state officers.
An almost solid repubiican congressional
delegation is assured, and the legislature
will be republican on joint ballot.
In the southern part of the state, usually
strongly republican, the plurality has been
reduced by the populist vote.
Returns on the vote for governor from
713 precints out of 2,274 give for Fstee 38,817;
Budd, 46,272; Webster, populist, 15.142.
Chairman Gould, of the democratic state
committee, claims that Budd will be elected
by a plurality of 5 (4»». For cengres;-. Lou l,
republican, and Maguire, democrat, have
been elected. Republicans surely win in the
first, second, third, fifth, sixth and seventh
districts. Republican comm.lteemen aver
that the legislature will be safely repuulican.

dicate tiie election of Subro, popal.st, for

San Francisco, Cal., November 9. —Com-

total vote of 60,000. Opposed to him wera
five other candidates and he has polled a
clear majority of 2,000 over his opponents.
Sutro was elected on a platform opposing
the Southern Pacific railroad and the fund
ing bill. He projected the famous Sutro
tunnel in Nevada and has just completed
the largest public baths in the world. Sutra
is the most extensive property holder in
San Francisco, owning one-tenth of all the

Denver, Col., November B.—Governoi
Waite is going to leave Colorado. "He it
tired of the state and disgusted with his
defeat," said a well-known populist today.
He also said that the governor is consid
ering a proposition made to him to taka
up his residence in Illinois. The story is
that the populists in Illinois have taken
such a liking to the governor that they
want him not only to reside among them
but also to lead them to victory as their
candidate for governor in 1896. The recep
tion given Governor Waite on his recent
visit to the Windy City pleased him ini
nier-sely. It is nut probable that the gov
ernor will live in Chicago, but near that
city.
The republicans apparently have a ma
jority of sixteen on joint ballot in the legis
lature. The senate will consist of sixteen
republicans and nineteen democrats and
populists. In the house the republicans
will have forty-two members and the op
position twenty-three.
It having been demonstrated today that
tiie woman’s vote in Denver in Tuesday’s
election was 35 per cent of the tota. vote,
the leading women, therefore, formed a
state organization of their own for the next
national campaign. Hie purpose being to
