THE VICTORY SWEEPING.
#0W MR. DANA'S JOURNAL SUMMARIZES THE
LANDSLIDE OF TUESDAY.
The New York Sun says: The elections
throughout the Union Tuesday resulted Jin
sweeping Democritic victories. Mr. Cleve-
land was elec ed President, and a Demo-
cratic House of Representatives was chosen.
Some of the States which heretofore have
been solidly in the Republican column gave
substantial Democratic victories. Some of
the features of the election were the very
great majorities rolled up by New York and
Brooklyn, the cutting down of majorities in
the strong Republican counties of the in-
terior, and the great change in the voting
generally throughout the Western States,
In the South the Third party cut a sorry
figure, their most crushing defeat, perhaps,
being in Georgia, where Tom Watson was
beaten by 4,000 by his Democratic oppo-
nent, Not a third party Congressman was
elected in Georgia. In Soutlr Carolina only
one district is in doubt and there the
chances favor the Democrats. In Florida
famous for its Ocala platform and agitation,
the Third parry was inthe hopeless minor-
ity. In Arkansas, the Third party fusion
with the Republicana had no effect what-
ever on Democratic success. In Mississippi.
also a farmer Alliance hot-bed; the entire
Democratic Congress delegation was elected,
as was the casein Virginia, where Weaver
received fewer votes than Bidwell:

party candidate is left far in the rear.

MURDERED, THEN CREMATED,
THE AWFUL FATE OF AN ILLINOIS FARMER AT
HIS HOME.
On Thursday last M. Swartout, a wealthy
farmer living near Linden, Ill, drew con-
sicerable money for fail crops. He return-
ed howe just after dark and drove to the
barn, where he unhbitehed his team; but did
not return to the house. Shortly after a
large straw pile near the barn was found to
be on fire. ‘The jtamily saved the adjoining
property. . A search made in the ashes re-
vealed the body of the missing man almost
consumed, a listle unburned civthing pros:
ing his identity. There were marks of a
struggle and a trail of blood to the straw
pile, which proves that he was robbed and
then murdered,

HARRISON RECEIVES 63,000 MAJORITY. THE
REPUBLICANS ELECT 20 CONGRESSMEN,
AND THE LEGISLATURE IS RE-
. PUBLICAN, AS USUAL.
Returns come 1n slowly from all parts of
the State, and epecially from the
city districts. Enough are in, however, to
show that the State has given 65,000 major-
ity for Harrison, and that both branches of
the Legislature are Republican. While the
reportx from those Congressional districts
where the contest was ¢losest are not suffici-
ently full to bas ; le estim it
seems safe to say ‘Republicans have
