ABIC TIDAL WAVE The Democratic Victory Grow ing Still More Decisive. EVEN OHIO NOW DOUBTFUL. McKlnley's State Close and Claimed for Cleveland by 1,200. The Republicans Say It Will Take an Official Count to Decide and Are Hope ful of Results—Wisconsin Surely Demo cratic and Indiana Apparently So—The United States Senate Likely to l'ass from the Control of the Republicans. President Harrison Takes Ills Defeat Without Any Show of Feeling. COLUMBUS, Nov. 10.—The situation in Ohio has become interesting to a strained degree, and the excitement is at fever heat over the indications that McKinlcy's own state may possibly be found in the Demo cratic camp when all the votes are counted. The Democratic committee has reports from the county chairmen of thirty-six counties, which show a net Democratic gain for Cleveland of 14,440. This leaves fifty-five counties to hear from. At the same ratio of increase the state will go Democratic. The Republican managers are very anx ious and admit that the state will be close, but hope for different results from that which the Democrats claim. The Democrats claim the state for the Cleveland electors by a plurality ranging from 1,000 to 1,500. Republicans announce that it will re quire the official count to decide. CLEVELAND'S VICTORY. Late Returns Show the Result to Be More Decisive Than Expected. NEW YORK, NOV. 10. —The following has been issued from Democratic headquarters: "Our advices justify the statement that the electoral vote of Michigan and all of the electoral votes of Wisconsin and Illi nois, in addition to those from New York, New Jersey, Indiana and Connecticut and those from the southern states, will be cast for Cleveland and Stevenson. This will make 269 electoral votes in all. The indi cations are that California has also gone Democratic, this giving Cleveland and Stevenson not less than 2T6 electoral votes. "It is a glorious victory, and the people of the country are entitled to the warmest ! congratulations." At Democratic headquarters it is claimed that the returns show that Harrison has lost almost every state in the far west, and calculations based upon the returns west of the Missouri river demonstrate that Harrison could not have been elected if he hud carried New York and Indiana. Congress Flections. Reports from the congressional elections are still far from complete. Statements of the political divisions of the membership of the senate and house of representatives In the Fifty-third congress necessarily con tain elements of uncertainty that cannot be avoided, but the reports that have been received do not make any material changes in the tables heretofore sent out by the United Press. Democrats claim that they have carried I the Wyoming legislature, and will thereby secure a successor to Senator Warren, whose term expires March 4 next. This would give them forty-two senators, and almost certainly give to the third party senators the control of that body. Enthu siastic Democrats, however, claim that their party will secure enough additional senators from other western states to give them control of the upper branch of con gress after March 4. But a substantial basis for that claim cannot be seen. A number of changes in the composition of state delegations in the next house of representatives as heretofore given are wade necessary by reports received to day. The results, however, do not vary materially from the figures given out last night. In the Sixteenth New York district Francis Mervin (Rep.) seems to have defeated Henry M. Bacon (Dem.) This and other changes noted gives the Democrats 222 members of the next house, Republicans 122, Farmers' Alliance 10. The Republican column is likely to be in creased by the supplemental elections to be held in the two Rhode Island districts. Congress and Electors.

Chairman Hurrity, of the Democratic national committee-, sent telegrams of con- gratulation to Vice President-elect Steven son, Edward Murphy, Jr., chairman of the state Democratic committee; Richard Croker, Untenant Governor Sheehan, and Hugh McLaughlin and Thomas H. Pear sail, of Brooklyn. The telegram to Mr. Stevenson read: Hon. A. E. Stevenson. Bloomington, Ills.: I need hardly suy that you have my warmest congratulations. Your magnificent work throughout the campaign contributed largely to the result. God bless you. W. H. HARKITY. Mayor Grant sent a letter of congratula tion to President-elect Cleveland. The mayor said the great oration of Senator Hill in Tammany hall, the heavy work lone by Lieutenant Governor Sheehan and Chairman Murphy and the ruffianly con duct of John I. Davenport, added to the the magnificent work done by Tammany Hall, were all in a measure responsible for the rolling up of such a stupendous major ity for Cleveland in New York state. For #he work done outside Messrs. Hurrity and Whitney were deserving of a large share of credit. Republican Claims. The Republican national committee held a conference behind locked doors, and after adjournment the following bulletin was given out: "From the latest advices received at headquarters the result of the election for president depends upon the returns from Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana, all of which are exceedingly close, but claimed by the Republicans in each case. With the electors from these states Harrison and Reid will have 226 sure votes." John S. Clarkson was the first to leave the room. He was noncommittal. He was ! followed soon after by Secretary McComas. , About 4 o'clock Chairman Carter emerged ' from the room. He was still sanguine of party victory in Indiana and Illinois. He would stand by his bulletin. The object of the conference or its out come Chairman Carter refused to reveal. Joseph H. Mauley, the Maine member of ' the Republican national committee, was ! seen at the Fifth Avenue hotel. Being asked to give his views on the re- j suit of the election, he replied: "What is I the use? It is all over. I am convinced | that we are beaten. I thought so last | night. I have no hope in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin." Whitelaw Held Interviewed. The Republican vice presidential candi date, Whitelaw Reid, was asked by a re porter to what he attributed the Repub lican defeat. He replied, "To a hick of Re publican support." "How do you explain that?" he was asked. "Evidently the whole Republican party do not approve the Republican position. If the disaster had been confined to one or two doubtful states other explanations would be possible; but when it extends from Connecticut and New Jersey to Illi nois, Wisconsin and California it is clearly due to a tendency affecting the party throughout the country. "The question on which such a general feeling may naturally exist is the tariff. Obviously many Republicans still think, as they did in 1890, that the McKinley tariff has gone too far. In view of this feeling it is probably best for the country that the Democratic victory should be complete." "How are you feeling about it person ally?" "Oh, well, you remember General Logan's reply to that question eight years ago. He said he felt like the boy who had stubbed his toe; he was too old to cry and it hurt too much to laugh. lam extremely sorry to see the country reverted for the first time in thirty years to unrestrained Democratic rule; but personally I have lit tle to regret. I intended to get out of pub lic life when I resigned the mission to France, had 110 intention of re-entering it again, never supposed I should he made a candidate for the vice presidency, and never asked a single human being to pro mote my nomination. "When it came of course I was gratified, but the defeat leaves me just where I started bust spring to place myself. lam profoundly sorry the Republican party is defeated, but I can bear my own reverse with composure." NEW YORK. The Indications Are That Cleveland Has Carried the State by About 40,000 Plurality. NEW YORK.—Grover Cleveland's plu rality in this state is 44,496. His plurality in the city is 75,634, and it is more than 28,000 in Kings county. The result in Kings county was a surprise, as the Democratic managers there had claimed only 18,000 to 20,000 plurality. There were heavy Demo cratic gains in some of the strongest Re publican counties in the interior of the state. The Democrats have elected a good ma jority of the 'assemblymen in this state, which insures the election of a Democrat to the United States senate to succeed Frank Hiscock. Thirty Democratic as semblymen are elected from this city, and seventeen of the eighteen assemblymen elected from Kings county are Democrats. I In the next assembly there will be seventy five Democrats and fifty-three Republicans, ! which will give the Democrats a sweeping majority on joint ballot. Whatever the cause the total vote in the ! country districts fell much below the vote of 1888, but two Republicans stayed at home to one Democrat, so that the Cleve land majority increased in nearly every part of the state. There are many surprises, but the great est of all is in Chemung county, Senator David 13. Hill's home, where a Democratic majority of 570 in 1888 is now a Republican majority of 800, or a total Democratic loss of 870. Dr. It. P. Bush, the speaker of the present assembly, who represented the county seven years, is defeated. Kings county gave Cleveland a plurality of 29,160, and cast 1,390 votes for Weaver, and 1,598 for Bid well. Three Democratic congressmen were elected. Tammany Hall made a clean sweep. Gilroy was elected mayor over Einstein by a vote of 173,508 to 97,647. Cleveland had a majority of 74,793 in the city. New York city with Richmond and Westchester coun ties sends a solid Democratic delegation of ten representatives to congress. The following appear to be the congress men elected from the entire state: First—James W. Covert, Dem. Second—John W. Clancy, Dem. Third—Joseph C. Hendrix, Dem. Fourth—William J. Coombs, Dem. Fifth—John H. Graham, Dem. Sixth—Thomas F. Magner, Dem. Seventh—Franklin Burtlett, Dem. Eighth—Edward J. Dunphy, Dem. Ninth—Timothy J. Campbell, Dem. Tenth—Daniel E. Sickles, Dem. Eleventh—Amos J. Cummings, Dem. I Twelfth—W. Bourke Cockran, Dem. Thirteenth—John DeWitt Warner, Dem. Fourteenth —John R. Fellows, Dem. Fifteenth—Asbel P. Fitch, Dem. [ Sixteenth—William Ryan, Dem. Seventeenth—Henry D. Bacon, Dem. Eighteenth— J. L. Lefevere, Rep. ' Nineteenth—C. D. Haines, Dem. Twentieth—Charles Tracy, Dem. Twenty-first—S. J. Schermerhorn, Dem Twenty-second—N. M. Curtis, Rep. Twenty-third—John M. Wever, ltep. Twenty-fourth—Charles A. Chickering, Rep. Twenty-fifth—James S. Sherman, Rep. Twenty-sixth—George W. Ray, Rep. Twenty-seventh—James J. Belden, Rep. Twenty-eighth—Sereno E. Payne, Rep. Twenty-ninth—Charles W. Gillett, Rep. Thirtieth—James W. Wadsworth, Rep. Thirty-first—J. Van Voorliis, Rep. Thirty-second—Daniel N. Lockwood, Dem. Thirty-third—Charles Daniels, Rep. Thirty-fourth—W. B. Hooker, Rep. Horatio S. Sanford is elected mayor of Long Island City. He defeated Patrick Gleason, the present incumbent, by about 100 plurality. NEW JERSEY. The State Cants Its Electoral Vote for Cleveland by a Plurality Exceeding B,ooO—Werts Elected Governor. NEW JERSEY.—The indications now are that Cleveland has carried the State of New Jersey by 7,500, and that Werts (Dem.) for governor has been elected by a plurality of 4, (KM). The next legislature will stand as follows: Senate —Republic- ans, 4; Democrats, 17. House—Demo crats, 56; Republicans, 25. The Democratic majority on joint ballot will be 31, which leaves a net Republican gain of 4. For [ congress the Republicans have carried the ' First and Second districts and possibly the Eighth. The returns from the latter dis trict are still incomplete. Caldwell, the birthplace of Grover Cleve land, gave Harrison 184, Cleveland 154. Fifteen arrests were made in Trenton for bribery at the polls. Among the prisoners required to give bail to answer such charges are Major Michael Hurley, the Democratic j "boss" of Mercer county; John Webb, a | letter carrier, and William H. Skirm, ' son of the Republican candidate for state senator in this county. PENNSYLVANIA. The Majority Tor Harrison and Held In the State Will Be in the Neigh borhood of 70,000. PENNSYLVANIA. The next state senate will consist Democrats. The general assembly will in clude 140 Republicans and 64 Democrats. The Republican majority on joint ballot j will be 90. John Dean (Rep.) is elected justice of the supreme court. The common pleas judges elected are: Philadelphia, Michael Arnold (Dem.); Lancaster, David McMullen (Dem.); Alleghany, Edwin H. Stoey (Rep.); Dauphin and Lebanon, John B. McPherson; Butler and Lawrence, John M. Greer (Rep.); Schuylkill, R. H. Koche (Rep.); Berks, 11. Willis Bland (Dem); Potter and McKean, Arthur G. Olmstead (Rep.). Pennsylvania has gone for Harrison and Reid. The returns indicate that his ma jority will not be less than 70,000, and niore complete reports may carry it to a figure somewhat larger. The Republican state ticket, including John Dean, for justice of the supreme court, and William Lilly and Alexander McDowell, for congressmen at large, has received about the same ma jority, although there are sections where Judge Dean has run considerably ahead of his ticket. An important part of the Republican victory in the state is the election of twen ty-one Republican congressmen out of a total or thirty. In the present house the Democrats have eleven members from Pennsylvania. The legislature is also strongly Republican, the majority on joint ballot promising from the returns so far received to range from eighty-five to ninety. The vote in most quarters has been a pretty full one, and the experience with the new ballot system appears to have been without serious difficulty. It is impossible at this hour to make any calculation as to the extent of the vote cast for any of the outside party organizations, although there were three electoral tickets in the field besides the Republican and Democratic nominations—the Prohibition, People's and Socialistic-Labor. CONNECTICUT. The Democrats Claim the State by About 1,000 Plurality—Morris Appar ently Elected Governor. CONNECTICUT—There is nothing in the later returns received by The Courant (Rep.) changes the result here materially. Cleveland's plurality is about 5,000. The ' report that sufficient Prohibition and scat tering votes were cast to prevent Morris' majority is not confirmed by the drift of the official returns. The congressional delegation is 1 Republican and 3 Demo crats. The state senate is a tie. The house shows a Republican majority of 14, which will become 18 when two Republicans in Cheshire are seated. They were elected, but declared not elected by the moderator i because the word "Republican" was not on the tickets. There were four ties for representatives voted off. East Hartford j and Salem went Republican, Columbia j | and Durham Democratic. NEW ENGLAND STATES. With the Exception of Connecticut, Which Is Claimed by the Democrats, They Are All llepubllcan. MASSACHUSETTS.—The Herald says "The Republican figurers at headquarters virtually concede the election of Governor Russell by about 1,700, or, to be exact, 1,697. A private dispatch from Worcester confirmed the belief that Mr. Haile would lose the state, as that city is reported to have given him but 500 plurality, which shows a net gain of 300 for Russell. The small towns, which have been slow in com ing in, do not cut down the estimated Rus sell plurality materially, and there is little indication that the towns to hear from will wipe it out. The balance of the Repub lican state ticket has been elected. Lieu tenant Governor William H. Haile, the Republican candidate for governor, has telegraphed from Springfield to Governor Russell as follows, "Please accept my con gratulations on your election." Returns come very slowly, and no con gress districts are as yet complete. The indications seem to point to the election of McEttrick, Independent Dem., in the I Tenth district. Harrison carries the state by a reduced majority. 1 NEW HAMPSHIRE.—The indications are that the state is carried for Harrison by 1 about 2,000; that there is no choice for gov- I 'ernor by the people; that Stone and Parker, Denis., are elected to congress; that the legislature is Republican in both branches. VERMONT.—Vermont went Republi j can. The Democrats concede the State to ! the Republicans by a plurality of 80,000. I Returns received from fifty Vermont towns give the following vote: Harrison, 12,765; Cleveland, 5,600; Bid Well, 443; scat- I tering, 6. The same towns in 1888 gave Harrison 14,719; Cleveland, 5,010; Fisk, 405. The Republican vote shows a decrease of 1,954, or 13 per cent., and the Democratic a decrease of 4, or seven-tenths per cent.; the Prohibition a gain of 38, or 9 per cent. The second trial of voting under the new ballot law was more satisfactory than the first. MAINE.—One hundred and seventy-seven towns in Maine give Harrison, 42,089; Cleveland, 31,455; scattering, 3,034. The same towns in 1888 gave Harrison, 43,347; Cleveland, 32,000; scattering, 2,597. Repub lican plurality now 10,024. Republican plurality then 18,207. If the remaining towns come in with the same rate of loss, the vote will stand: Harrison, 64,000; Cleve land, 49,500; scattering, 5,000. Total vote, 118,500. RHODE ISLAND.—The total vote of the state, lacking twenty districts, gives Harrison 18,248; Cleveland, 16,552. This state goes for Harrison. Indications point to no election of con gressmen in this state. THE CENTRAL STATES. Illinois Apparently Goes for Cleveland and Causes the Greatest Sur prise In the Campaign. ILLINOIS. The latest returns do not abate in qny way the decisive Demo cratic victory in the state of Illinois on na tional and state tickets. Conservative men of all parties now generally agree that the national and state tickets have a Demo cratic majority estimated at 20,000 to 25,000. Democrats have a majority in the senate of 3 and in the house of representatives of 11. Returns from nearly all the congres sional districts in the state are complete, and indicate that the Democrats have elected congressmen in the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Eighth, Twelfth, Thir teenth, Fourteenth, Sixteenth, Seven teenth, Eighteenth and Nineteenth dis trict s and two congressmen at large; Re publicans in the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh and Twentieth dis tricts. The vote in the First district is very close, and it will require the official count to determine the result definitely. It is now definitely known that Joseph G. Cannon (Rep.) has been elected to con gress from the Fifteenth district, hereto fore classed as doubtful. INDIANA.—The vote was probably the largest ever polled in the state. As the j Australian ballot law has doubled the number of precincts it would be im- I practicable to compare the vote of this j year with that of the presidential vote of four years ago. In 1890 the Democrats car ried the state by a plurality of 19,575. On this basis the Republicans would h3ve to gain an average of seven votes in each pre cinct. The returns from all over the state continue to come in slowly, especially from southern Indiana. Seventy-three counties have reported, and Cleveland and the Democratic state ticket have in those coun ties about 7,200 plurality. The other nine counties are expected to give a net Demo cratic gain of 1,000. The legislature will be Democratic by a big majority on joint ballot. The Democrats elect eleven con i gressmen and the Republicans two. I MICHIGAN.—The Republican voters ! have carried 8 out of 14 electoral districts. | The legislature will probably be composed ! as follows: Senate—Republicans, 18; Demo crats and Populists, 14. House—Repub licans, 48; Democrats and Populists, 52. According to the returns now in, which are somewhat meager, it appears that the following congressmen are successful: First district, J Logan Cliipman (Dem.); Second, James Gorman (Dem.); Third, J. I C. Burrows (Rep.); Fourth, H. F. Thomas (Rep.); Fifth, G. F. Richardson (Dem.); Sixth, D. M. Aitken (Rep.); Seventh, P. L. Wixson (Rep.); Eighth, \V. L. Linton (Rep.); Ninth, John W. Moon (Rep.); Tenth, T. A. E. Weadock (Dem.); Elev enth, John Avery (ltep.); Twelfth, S. M. Stephenson (Rep.). IOWA.—AII the election returns so far received indicate a Republican plural ity of 22,000 in lowa on electors. The state ticket runs a little behind. The Republic ans elect congressmen in ten of the eleven districts. Walter I. Hayes, of the Second district, is the only Democrat elected. The People's party vote will reach 35,000 and the Prohibition vote 8,000. WISCONSIN.—The great victory of the Democracy in Wisconsin is complete. Ed C. Wall claims the state of Wisconsin by 13,000 majority for the Democrats. Com plete reports from all over the state give the Democrats 12 slate senators, which, to gether with 15 bold over senators, gives them 27 out of the 33 votes in the senate, with the chance of raising this number to 29. Sixty-six Democrats have been so far elected to the assembly, and a great num ber of Democratic strongholds have not yet been heard from. This assures the election of a Democratic United States senator to succeed Senator Philetus Sawyer. MlNNESOTA.—Minnesota has chosen all of the nine Harrison electors—five by 16,000 and four by 8,000. The fusion elect ors actually ran behind the Democratic electors in St. Paul and Minneapolis. Re publicans elect six congressmen, Demo crats one. The legislature is still in doubt. Republicans elect governor and both con- ' gressmen in South Dakota. Harrison j electors win by 2,000. The legislature is in doubt. SOUTHERN STATES. West Virginia Returns Indicate That the State W ill Remain in the Solid South. ! ARKANSAS.—The vote cast for the pres j idential candidates, as far as it has been re ported, shows a plurality for Cleveland of 20,000. This gives him the eight electoral votes of the state in the electoral college. In 1888 Cleveland carried the state by a plurality of 27,210. FLORIDA.—The Democratic presiden tial electors have been elected in this state. The returns received show she plurality for the HJeveland ticket to be about 9,000. Later returns may reduce this somewhat, but of course not enough to affect the re sult. GEORGlA.—Returns from all the coun ties of this state show a Democratic plural | ity of 55,000. This gives Georgia's 13 elect ; oral votes to Cleveland. Richmond county will give Black, Dem., nearly 9,000 major j ity over Tom Watson. Returns from other i districts indicate that the Democrats will carry every district, and that Georgia will send a solid Democratic delegation to the next congress. KENTUCKY.—The thirteen electoral i votes of this state go to the Democrats. I The returns are coining in slowly, but | enough have been received to show that Cleveland's plurality is 30,000. His plural ! ity in 1888 was 28,666. All congressional ; districts, except the Eleventh, are Demo cratic. The Eleventh is still in doubt. I LOUISIANA.—The figures on the vote in ninety nine parishes thus far received show a plurality for Cleveland of 50,000. The Cleveland plurality four years ago was 64 548. WEST VIRGINIA. - Notwithstanding the confhWnt expectations of Republicans, West Virginia will not break the solid south this year. The disappointing returns came from Republican counties, especially Kanawha county, where the force bill ghost and mixed schools apportionment swayed the voters. The Republicans of the state are stunned by the "slump" and cannot account for it. Davis, for governor, runs ahead of Harri son, but is too far behind MacCordle (Dem.) to pull through. The latter will have from 1,500 to 2,000 plurality. Republicans will control the house of delegates, but the leg islature will have a Democratic majority of 10 ou joint ballot, which insures the re election of Senator Faulkner. It will be some time before definite figures can be ob i tained. MARYLAND.—There was only one dis trict in doubt in Maryland—the Sixth dis ' trict—formerly represented by Mr. Mc- Comas, secretary of the Republican na tional committee, where George L. Well #g, Rep., contested the representation against William McMahon McKaig, Dem., the sitting member. The district was car ried last election by McKaig by less than 200 in a total vote of nearly 34,000. Latest returns are that he has carried Washington county by 350, has gained largely in Gar rett county and is re-elected by an increased majority. Congressmen have been elected in the other five districts as follows: First—Rob ert Brattan, I)em., for Fifty-third congress, and John B. Brown to fill vacancy in Fifty second congress. Second—J. F. C. Talbott, Dem. Third—Harry Welles Rusk, I)em., re-elected. Fourth—lsudor Raynor, Dem., re-elected. Fifth—Barnes Compton, Dem., re-elected. i The state has given a larger majority than usual for Cleveland. ALABAMA.—Clevelaud has carried this Rtate by a majority of about 50,000. The indications are that the fusionists have elected congressmen in the Second and Fifth districts; the Democrats in the First, ! Third, Sixth, Eighth and Ninth; Fourth 1 and Seventh doubtful, i TENNESSEE.—Grover Cleveland car ries Tennessee by 65,000 plurality, and Peter Turney is elected governor by 50,000. Buchanan, the third party candidate, polled i only 20,000 votes. The Democratic vote was full, but the Republican and third parties failed to come out. The legislature will be Democratic, and the congressional dele gation as now—eight Democrats and two Republicans. MISSISSIPPI.—This State casts itselect l oral vote, as usual, for the Democratic electoral candidates. The Cleveland elect ors ure therefore returned by a plurality of 50,1KK). Four years ago the Cleveland I plurality was 55,375. I MISSOURI. —The Missourians voted for j the Democratic electors. The returns from the 114 couuties show a plurality for Cleve land of 20,000 against 25,717 in 1888. Re turns from the city are coming in slowly. ' The indications are that Cobb, Dem., and O'Neil, Dem., and Barthold, Rep., for congress, are elected iu the Twelfth, Elev enth and Tenth districts respectively. NORTH CAROLINA. Benjamin H. Buun, Dem., is re-elected in the Fourth dis trict. Indications are that William A. Branch, I)em., is re-elected in the First dis i trict; that Benjamin F. Grady, Dem., is re elected in Third district, and John S. Henderson, Dem., in the Seventh district. The state has been carried for Cleveland by a good majority. SOUTH CAROLINA.—The indications ; are that the Democrats have elected con gressmen in every district, the only close vote being in the Seventh district, which j will require an official count. Cleveland's majority in the state will exceed 20,000. ! TEXAS.—The weather was bad through j out the state. The vote will probably not j exceed that of 1888, when Cleveland's plu rality was 180,000. VlßGlNlA.—lndications are that the j state will give 30,000 Democratic majority. I Wise, Dem., for congress will have 6,000 to ; 7,(KK) majority. | DELAWARE.—This state elected three . presidential electors, one congressman, and | a legislature to choose a successor to I United States Senator Gray. The count j here indicates Democratic gains. It looks j as though the state would go Democratic. Senator Gray claims it by 1,200 plurality. The returns from Sussex county are com ing in slowly, but it is probable that the whole Democratic ticket has been elected by a small majority. In some of the "Hundreds" negroes broke down the guard lines and undertook to take charge of the polls, but they were repulsed. Money was freely used in buy ing votes and keeping voters away from the polls. Later returns show that this state re mains Democratic on electors, congress and legislature. _________ WESTERN STATES. Kuiihiih Will Probttbly Go lleitublicait by About 20,000 —The I'opuligts' Tactics Delay llcturns. KANSAS.—There is little probability of any definite returns from Kansas being re ceived until late today. The Populists have insisted that the law providing that each ballot shall be checked up complete when taken from the box is complied with to the letter. This has resulted in delay ing the count to such an extent that no figures of any consequence have been re-* ported. The precincts heard from all show de cided Republican gains. Four towns in the Seventh district, Wichita, Win field, Newton and Nickerson, all of which gave Jerry Simpson handsome majorities in 1890, have each given majorities for Long, Rep. The Republican state central state com mittee claims the election of all the eight Republican candidates for congress and a majority in each branch of the legislature as well as the state and electoral tickets. A similar claim is made by the fusionists. If the proportion of gains made by the Republicans in the few precincts heard from is kept up throughout the state the Republican majority will not be less than 80,000. The Republican state central committee claim the state by 20,000 plurality. The chairman of the People's party concedes nothing. NEVADA.—It is conceded by all parties that Weaver carries Nevada by 1,500. New lands, silver party, is elected to congress. Result as to legislature vt yet certain, but it is generally believed the silver party, have a majority which will insure the election of Stewart to the United States senate. CALIFORNIA. A total of 2,199 precincts, including 267 in San Francisco, returns give Harrison 87,559, Cleveland 88,- 693, Weaver 15,353. Weaver's vote was somewhat larger than was estimated by managers of both political parties, and cut into the Republican vote iu some counties much heavier thau it did into the Demo- j cratic vote. The legislature is still iu doubt, but Will probably tie Republican on joint bAllot. The Democrats will in nil probability carry four congressional dis tricts—First, Second, Fourth and Sixth — and the Republicans the remaining three. A great deal of trouble was caused by the I lack of ballot boxes, and although 150 were j distributed many voters were unable to get their votes in in time. The election passed off very quietly, though twenty arrests were made by Unit ed States deputy marshals for attempts at illegal voting and for breach of the peace. The estimated total vote ot the city will be 60,000. An unusually large vote was cast throughout California, and the new ballot law was generally satisfactory. COLORADO.—The additional returns only tend to pile up the Populist majority in Colorado, which will be anywhere from 5,000 to 7,000, with Waite, Populist candi date for governor, probably 3,000 votes be hind his ticket. Pence (Populist) is elected to congress in the First district by 1,5000r 2,000 majority, and Bell (Populist) is elect ed in the Second district by 3,000 or 4,000 majority. The Populists will have control of the lower house of the legislature and probably of the senate. Long term sena tors elected will have a vote in the session of 1805 for a United States senator to suc ceed Senator Walcott. Of the seventeen long term senators chosen the Populists have elected ten or twelve and possibly more. NEBRASK A.—The Nebraska returns are still fragmentary, but indications are that the Weaver electors will carry the state by about 5,000. Crounse (Rep.) for governor | will probably get 3,000 plurality, also Majors (Rep.) for lieutenant governor. The balance of the state ticket will probably j be mixed and close, with chances favoring I the Republicans. The Republicans will elect two out of six congressmen and pos sibly three. Gains for Republicans as compared with two years ago are being reported. Democratic gains are equally noticeable. The independents lose in for mer strongholds and gain slightly in towns. One-third of the Democrats of the state voted for Weaver electors, which explains why they carried the state. NORTHWEST STATES.

An unusually heavy vote was polled. The polls were open from 8 a. in. until 7 p. m. It is impossible to obtain figures from any of the eighteen counties, as the count is proceeding at a snail's pace. Sweet, the Republican nominee for is un doubtedly elected and it is conceded that MeConnell, the Republican nominee for governor, has the best chance.

The majority will not be 100 Chairman Vande vanter, of the Republican state committee, conceded the election of Osborne for governor and Clarke for supreme judge.

SOUTH DAK ATA.—Seven of the most populous counties in South Dakota report decided Republican gains, with a falling off of the Populist vote of 25 per cent., and later returns from other counties confirm these representations, which makes the election of the entire Republican state ticket by a plurality larger than at first estimated, bringing the figures up to 12,000 plurality.
