At this hour Newberry, Republican, seems to be maintaining ills lead over Henry Ford. Kariy to-day the lead of Senator John F. Nu gent, of Idaho, was but 110 over his Republican rival, Frank H, Gooding. Supporters of Sena tor Fad, of New Mexico, were claiming Ills election on tho bases of scattering returns. Washington, Nov. 7.—With control of Representatives placed in the hands of the Republicans by a major ity of sixteen and probably more. | the attention of the country this i morning was centered on contests in three states —Michigan, Idaho and ! New Mexico—which will decide j whether the Democrats shall lose ! control of the Sonata as well. Returns from Ave Congressional ■ districts were still missing In Hon i tana, New Mexico and South Dakota , this morning. Without them however, the Repub ; Means have won 234 seats in the j House of Representatives sixteen more than the 218 votes necessary for a majority. The Democrats on the face of those 1 returns had 195 seats and if the Ave I missing districts were to be eon i ceded to them they still would lack | eighteen votes of the number ncces | sary to control the House. Clark in by Good Margin The later returns show plainly i that Speaker Clark, Instead of bo | ing defeated as was reported as be- # j ing likely last night, has .been re-' elected by a substantial majority. The contests which will decide the [ political complexion of the Senate ' were very close. As the Senate I stands without a decision in these j contests there are 46 Democrats and 47 Republicans. In Michigan the race between Henry Ford and Truman 11. New- I berry was so close that It was said I an official count might be required |to decide the winner. Both parties ! were claiming the seat. In New Mexico, where Republicans ; are claiming the election of Senator j Fall by a majority of one thousand ' at least, not a single county had re j ported complete returns. In Idaho, where 74,000 votes out 1 of an estimated total of 95,000 had I been counted, Senator Nugent, the i Democratic candidate for re-election was leading Frank R. Gooding, the 1 Republican candidate by a little more 1 than 300' votes. The result is in doubt. Democrats Hop* For Senate With tho House MrmlyMn the hands of tho Republicans, control of the Senate I 3 nioro Important than ever to tho Democrutlo administration. It the administration can retain con trol of the Senate It cun In a large measure check the aotlvltlea of n Republican House. It Is doubly Im portant to tho national administra tion because of the pnrt which the constitution uantgna to tho Senate In tho ratification of tho peaco trea ties which will end tho world war. In the Sonato reposes the prero ative of ratifying any treaties which I tho President may make, Republi cans made one of' thefr campaign arguments 011 tho contention that u Republican Senate should be elected to participate In the work of making pence. Tho Doinocruttc administra tion, on the othty hand, contends that the negotiation of treaties Is wholly the function of the executive branch and that the Senate's part Is * u rati fy them. With the Senatorial returns still missing from Michigan, Idaho und New Mexico, the llgures showed that the Republicans hud lost one eout — that of Senator Weeks, of Massa chusetts —while tho Democrats had lost six. The senators who will be retired are Shafroth, of Colorado; Saulsbury, of Delaware; "Jim limn" Lewis, of Illinois; Thompson, of Kan sas; Wtltley, of Missouri, and Hollls, ijf New Hampshire.

HARRISBTTRG TELEGRAPH SEDAN FALLS TO 1). S. . ARMY AFTER HARD FIGHT [Continued Prom Page Out'.] Important gains chronicled for the British in the north andj the French in the center of the advancing Allied lines, whichj moved forward r,ix miles Wednesday. Nearly All France Is Liberated Field Marshal l laig rapidly is clearing the Germans from thatj portion of France east and southeast of Valenciennes. The Brit ish have smashed . farther through the enemy lines defending Monsand Maubeuge and are outflanking the German positions in Belgium, where the German commanded a.t Ghent is ! evacuating the city. East and southeast of the Mormal forest the i British also have made great strides toward the Franco-Belgian j border. , The French armies from north of the Disc to southeast of Mezicres maintain "contact with the retiring enemy all along the l front. The last natural obstacles west of the Belgian frontier| have virtually all been cleared and the terrain before the French is admirable for maneuvering. On the extreme right where the J French lines join the American, French cavalry arc riding toward | the Meu§e between Mezicres and Sedan. Gain Four Miles in Short* Time In reaching the Meuse at Sedan, General Pershing's men had; achieved an advance of four nti'les since late Wednesday night. | Germany's main line Of communication from Metz westward goes 1 through Sedan and it no longer is of use to the enemy. In their rapid advanct northward to Sedan since last Friday the Ameri cans have captured 6,000 prisoners, Sedan is seven miles from the French frontier and the fall of the town, which is mostly at the east bank of the Meuse, would mean the definite turning of the Meuse line northward into Belgium and would force the Ger mans back almost to the Rhine if hostilities should continue. East of the Meuse the Americans press forward toward Montmedv. German Armies in Danger Germany's troops west of the Meuse, because of the great progress of the French and Americans, must now retreat, if they can, through Belgium. The task of moving this large force of soldiers through the narrow Liege gap is a formidable one. Internal conditions in Germany apparently arc far from satis factory. In addition to the outbreak in Kiel, the German naval base, which is reported to have placed the German navy and a large part of Schleswig in the hands ,of the revolutionists, out breaks are reported.in Hamburg. The chancellor also has issued an .appeal to the people to maintain calm \yhile the armistice j negotiations are in progress. Germany's hold on the Aisne, from Kethel eastward to above I Youziers, was broken yesterday. I' tench troops have thrown bridges across the rivet and are in close pursuit ot the loe, who is abandoning vast quantities of munitions and material of war as he flees toward the ever-narrowing gap that leads through Bel gium to comparative safety. Vervins Falls; Huns Get Out of Rethel Vervins has been captured. Kethel has been evacuated by j the Germans, while the French are rapidly approaching the vital | railroad center of Hirzon from the west. British forces are mov j ing up toward Maubeuge from the southwest and the Ameiicans, in the Meuse sector, are within foui miles oi Sedan. Entente troops have crossed the Austro-Hungarian lines at several points to take the places of the troops of the dual mon j arehy so that the latter can be transported to their homes in groups. This is the lirst actual step toward carrying out the terms of the armistice between the Allies and Austria. Germany and Russia Near Break A critical situation has arisen between Germany and Russia. Diplomatic representatives of both countries have been recalled. German Socialists are demanding the abdication of Emperor William. The financial situation of the German empire is said by experts to be desperate and that the breaking point is near. Ghent has no.t yet fallen, but the place is closely invested by the Allies and news of its capture may be expected soon. FRIENDS WELCOME E. E. BEIDLEMAN [Continued from First Pago.] j ■ E. E.

He re | ferrcd to the great record of Pcni j sylvania in '.he war and said that in | his estimation Senator Sproul is Hie best-qualified man in the state to guide the Commonwealth through the , remainder of the conflict and the re construction period to follow. Senator Beidleman laid particular stress upon his service as presiding olncer of the pardon board and said that during the four years of his ) membership he would withdraw from - the trial of criminal cases in the j courts of the Commonwealth, because I he wanted to feel himself free and j unrestrained In the consideration of ; the pleas of prisoners coming before | that body. He added, "but so long r.s i I have anything to do with it, the ' pardon bqard will not be made an in ] struinent for general Jail delivery in I Pennsyivaia." j Among those who acted as aids in | the parade were County Chairman I William H.
