BRYAN 163
Four years ago McKinley had 371 and
Bryan 174.
The tun states about which there seems
t« be d >til.t are Kentucky and Nebraska.
Early in the evening it was b*Moyed that
Kentucky would be found in the McKin

nal claiming the ’ at' bv safe pluralities
for both Bryan and Beckham.
The republican- are making strong
claims to Nebraska, hut the democrats
feel confident that it Is safely d»mo
crath. though the plurality will be small.
Here. too. the earlier returns were fa
vorable to the republicans, but the early
gains were not borne out by those which
came later.
Utah, which wss put in the Bryan col
umn on the first reports. Is now conceded
to have been carried by the republicans.
The returns fr m Idaho are meager,
but they point to the electoral
vote going to Bryan. Changes In
these. however. cannot affect the
general result in any way. After a bril
liant campaign, the democratic party has
g-.ne down before its tore powerful an
tagonist. The “prosperity” cry has done
the work The *tter material condi
tions prevailing throughout th' doubtful
states as compan-d with four years ago
played Into the hands of the republicans
though not at all of their making. The
“full dinner pall” turned the trick.
■yne returns show that the silent vote
went to McKinley. While Bryan made
splendid gams tn some states, they were
not enough to get electoral votes. In
New England there was a marked gain
over four years ago. but New England Is
Still solidly republican, as the prophets
al< expected it to be.

The McKinley plurality approximates the
extreme claims of the republican manag

Delaware ts republican by about l.fr*.
but the indications are that the demo
crats have captured the legislature, which
! means two members of the I nlted States 1

Baltimore went republican, and with
•.he city went the state of Maryland.
West Virginia is republican. The ad
‘ Mees are as vet insufficient to show
whether the democrats have saved th”
I legislature, but the Inst reports from
’ Charlestown point io a democratic gen

McKinley’s plurality in the state of
New York, including Greater New

off quietly both in the city and state.
There were no more than the usual num
