I Lata returns show that McKlnley baa
carried the svate by at least 876,000, while
;lu only Kil districts out of 8,864 election
districts, outside of New York and Kings,
Black's vote Is 164,788, Porter's 108,860
and Griffin 8.441. These same districts in
loii4 gave Morton 186,878 and Hill 06,488.
As the com piece roturne oaiue In from
the oiiuutUis it was fairly evident that tha
Republican uatiunal ticket had run far
Leyuud all expectations. That tha oandl
dutu for governor ran behind this record
wits due luiilnly to the vote In Rensselaer
and Albany counties, with some precincts
in New York and Kings.
Ia no tingle instance was a gain of any
prynortiun ujade lu any ouuuty of New
York state by Democrats, and the party,
aa represented by the vote, is not a gain
er, but, In fact, la a loser, there being a
distinct Demooratlo lose.
In congressmen there seems to be a lit
tle change from 18H4, the atate giving a

that the Ropublloan majority of 4S In the

crease. This means the eleotlnn of a Unit
ed States senator to auoceed David B. BUI.
The malt enema to he this:
McKlnley electors have oarrled the state
by 875,000 at least. Of 84 congressmen 80
are Republican. Of 150 assembly nien 108
are Republican, and this means the eleo
tlon of a Hepublloan United States sena
tor. Tba metropolis of the oountry rolled
np a plurality of 81,000 for McKlnley.
The approilmnta vote was McKlnley
1B5.H24, Bryan 184. 818, MoKlnley'a plu

for governor over Wilbur F. Porter, the
candidate of the Democratlo state ma
chine. The estimated vote was Black
147,805, Porter 188,888, Blaok's plurality
9,673.

80,000 for McKlnley and abont 88,000 for

a sorry figure. The total vote oast for the
gold standard candidates la very small.
In tha two congressional districts the vote
follows close to that oast for the national
ticket. Melville Bull and Adln F. Cap
ron, the congressional candidates from the
First and Seoond districts, are eleoted by
pluralities which surpass any on record
In tha state. The fact Is Rhode Island la
mora overwhelmingly Republican than
It has ever been, and the total vote oast Is
also tha largest on record."
Maine.
Portland, Nov. 4. The election In
Maine proved one of the quietest In the
state a history. Generally the returns show
ed a falllDg oft of the Democratlo vote and
a slight Increase In the Republican vote,
whlob accounts In a great measure for the
heavy Republican plurality. On the whole
tha vote showed no material change from
that In the recent state election. Tha vote
oast for Palmer and Buokner waa not as
heavy as anticipated and had little effect
on the general result. The aooarate fig
ures of the plurality depend npon returns
from remote dlstrlots, but 40,000 Is con
sidered aa a conservative figure.

everywhere Indicated and reported. The
estimates we bave made are fulfilled and
I think tha figures) given oan be relied

The best Information obtainable at this
bour Is that Bryan has earried tba state
by a sate majority, without oountlng the
up river and back oonntles, whloh oannot
be beard from. Tha Republican oommlt
tee admits that Bryan bas oarrled tha
state. As between Taylor (Dem.) and
Tillman (Rep.) for governor the vote is
oluee and both parties claim a vlotory, the
ohanoua favoring Taylor. Tha figures oan
not be given, because returns from none
ot tha oounties are oomplete.

Maryland. 1
Baltimore, Nov. 4. The Democrats of
Maryland, under the leadership of Sena
tor Gorman, hava again tasted the bitter
ness of a defeat so crushing as to be al
most disheartening. The almost phenome
nal majority of 80,000 for Lowndes a year
ago bas been more than duplicated, as Mo

this writing being tba First, In whloh
Joshua W. Mile (Dem.), may be re-eleoted.
Mr. Miles, although running on
sliver platform, has always favored tha
gold standard, and many thins ne may ds
relied upon to vote that way If returned

the field, and a detailed vote In a case Ilka
this would appear sopernuoua
Delaware.
WILMIKOTOW, Nov. 4. On aoooont of
tha length of the tioket and mnoh scratch
ing the count of tha vote In Delaware Is
very alow. Up to 1 o'olook this morning
not one-fourth of the districts nave peen
reported. Enough Is known, however, to
Indicate surely that MoKlnley nas oarriea
the state by about 1,000 majority. In oth
er respeots, owing to the division of the
Republican party Into two motions, the
Democrats have been successful. They
hava eleoted Tnnnell governor and Handy
to congress by about 6,000 plnrallty eaoh.
They have also eleoted a majority ot the
legislature.
Louisiana.
New Orleans, Nov. 4 Returns so far
reoelved make It absolutely oertaln that
Bryan bas oarrled the state by probably
80,000 plurality, and that tha Democrats
have elected congressmen as follows, all

Third, R. F. Broussard; Fonrth, Henry
W. Ogden; Fifth, S. 7. Batrd; Sixth,

West Virginia.
Wheeling, Nov. 4. Tha return a are
very slow In coming In from the remote

Virginia by from 13,000 to 16,000, and tha
Republican stats tioket and fonr Repub

ST. Louis, Nov. 4. It Is doubtful If

Chicago, Nov. 4.-The return i received
by the Associated Press np to midnight
Indicate the probable election of MoKln
ley and Hobart, although returns are so
meager from a number of doubtful states
that this oonoluslon oan only be reached
by an estimate based npon the gains and
losses. The best estimates obtainable In
dicate that Maine and Vermont have given
majorities somewhat reduoed from the
September elections; that Nsw Hamp
shire gives about 80,000; Massachusetts
about 180,000 and Rhode Island and Con
necticut proportionate majorities, all for
MoKlnley. New York Is estimated at
above 860,000, and Pennsylvania Is likely
to reach tha aame figure, If not a greater.
Maryland haa been oarrled for the Repub
lican candidate for president by a majori
ty exceeding 80,000 and Delaware claimed
by both, apparently In dispute, although
the plurality la not likely to exceed 1,000.
The returns from West Virginia are not
sufficient to justify tha olalm of either
party. Ohio haa given a very large Re
publican plurality, and Kentuoky Is ap
parently assured to the McKlnley oolumn,
although later returns may not justify
this olalm. Tennessee seems to have been
carried for Bryan, notwithstanding tha
confident assertions to tbs contrary of the
Hepublloan managers, and the same Is
probably true of North Carolina. Indiana
and Michigan as well as Minnesota Indi
cate heavy Hepublloan gains and a strong
probability that they have gone for Mo
Klnley. Illinois will give MoKlnley over
100,000 plurality, and Nebraska and North
and South Dakota are very olosa and still
In doubt. Wyoming seems to have gone
for MoKlnley, The returns from the Pa
olflo ooaat states are too meager to justify
any olalm respecting them. The states of
Virginia, South Carolina, Florid, Geor
gia, Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Lou
isiana, Colorado, Nevada, Montana and
Idaho may safely be plaoed In tha Bryan
oolumn. The returns from Kansas and
Texas are scattering and tndloates noth
ing, although heavy Republican gains are
reported from Dallas and Galveston.
"I bave seen no unfavorable report from
any state that we bave ever claimed except
from Kentucky," said Chairman Jones
lata last night. "Reports from that state
Indicate a larger defection than we had
anticipated, but we do Dot concede that
state by any means Wa ean lose Ken
tuoky and will then have enough electoral
votes to win." Chairman Jonea says bs
haa reoelved a message from State Chair
man Martin stating that Indiana waa ab
solutely oertaln for Bryan. Private tele
grams from Mlohlgan Indicate large Dem
ocratlo gains, and tha Demooratlo com
mittee based their hopea of Bryan's eleo
tlon npon tha result In these two states,
Ohio.
Columbus, O,, Nov. 4. On comparison
ot tha vote with that of tha last presi
dential election, Onlo made unprecedented
gains for MoKlnley. In 1808 Harrison
oarrled Ohio by an average plurality for
Hepublloan eleotors of 1,078. In that year
one of the Cleveland and Stevenson eleot
ors waa eleoted. In 1808 MoKlnley bad a
plurality of over 80,000 for governor.
Tne Republloana oarrled Ohio in 1804 by
187,000, and last year Buthnell (Rep ),
waa sleeted governor by over 08,000. The
Republicans bave bad phenomenally large
pluralities In Ohio tba past three years,
oommenulng with MoKlnley'a re-election
aa governor In 1803, while In 1808 the re
sult was very olosa. The state In 1808. for
the first time, did not give Its entire elect
oral vote to the Republican presidential
oandldate. Tha largest plurality ever
given a Republican presidential ticket In
Oblo waa 84,000, for Garfield In 1880.
Chairman MoConvllleof the Demooratlo
state executive oommlttee states that ha
thought tha later returns would show
Demooratlo gain In Ohio to offset tha
heavy Republican galna In Hamilton,
Franklin and other oountlea. He said
that It looked as If the Republicans had
oarrled tha state, but waa unwilling to
glva figures until fuller returns bad been
received.
Canton. The dlspatohes reoelved hen
Indicate that Nebraska, Kansas and Kan
tuoky are In doubt, and no positive claims
are made of them by Major MoKlnley'a
friends.
Michigan.
Detroit, Nov. 4. It Is evident that tha
Republloana have oarrled Mlohlgan by
40,000 to 60,000 for MoKlnley, and that
Plngree (Rep.), is elected governor by a
majority not far short of that given Mo
Klnley. Chairman Baker ot the Denio-
eratlo atate oommlttee declined to make
any statement further than that the
few oouDtlea from whloh he had reoelved
returns ahow average galna tor tha sliver
tlokst of 1, 600 over tha Demooratlo majori
ties of 1808. Democrats elected aa con
gressman Todd, Third dlstrlot, and prob
ably Brucker, Eighth dlstrlot, wltb Tenth
dlstrlot doubtful. Returns from 8V coun
ties ot tbs 84 give MoKlnley 88,887;
Bryan, 1,600; Plngree (Rap.), 17,108;
Blogb (Dem.), 8,426.
Indiana.
Indianapolis, Nov. 4. Chairman Gowy
of tba Republican state oommlttee aays
Indiana will give MoKlnley a plurality of
80,000. Eleven Bepablloan congressmen
will be eleoted; two In doubt Wa will
oairy both branches ot tha legislature by a
safe majority. Chairman Martin of tba
Demooratlo oom ml tee says: "At this boor.
on aooount of tha fact that returns bava
been reoelved only from olties where Dem
ooratlo losses were anticipated, no estimate
of any reliability oan be made. Later re
turns from oountry dlstrlots will show
large Demooratlo gains, and I still believe
they will more than equal tba losses In
the olties."
Keataeky.
LoUisvTLLE, Not. 4. Chairman Sam
Roberts of the Rspubloan oommlttee give
out the following: "Kentuoky baa gone
for MoKlnley by a larger majority than
It gave to Bradley last year. Early re

On this Issue MoKlnley oarrled ths olty by

WESTERN STATES.
Nebraska.
Lincoln. Nov. 4. Whlla
Post Is still puhlloly olnlmlng the atate
for MoKlnley, attaches of his headauartsrs
say that be really regards the state aa
aouDtiui end possibly aa lost. Returns so
far reoelvod are eo meager aa to render it
Impossible to give a very Intelligent opin
ion, but so fur as they go they Indioate
sufficient gains to give the state to Bryan
by about 8,000. If maintained, the ma
jority will certainly be very small either
way. Chairman Mnnahan of the Lancas
ter county Democratlo committee predicts
80,000 Democratic majority and says he
is supported in this olalm by the islon
atate chairman. He says the Lincoln ma
jority Is a loss to the Republicans of 1,500
and that the full returns from the coun
try preolnote outside the olty will reduce
Morkiniey a majority to about 800. Mr.
Mnnahan expresses ths belief that tha f u-
slonlsta will eleot alx of the congressmen
from Nebraska. He asserts that Pradlev la
oertalnly eleoted from this, the First, dis
trict
From late and trustworthy retnrna
received from the state the indications are
very strong that Bryan will oarrv the
state by a small majority. The returns
rrom the cities of Omaha and Lincoln,
where the MoKlnley majorities were ex
pected, are practloally In, and It la evident
that they will not be sufficient to over
come that from the rural dlstrlots In fa
vor of Bryan,
Sooth Dakota.
YANKTOW, Nov. 4. Chairman Elliott
of the Republican oommlttee Is aaDgulne
that his estimate ot 80,000 for MoKlnley
will be low. It all depends npon the ooun
try precincts. Ths towns all give MoKln
ley good majorities, but the oountry la lia
ble to reduoe ihe majority to 60,000.
About all that oan bs lenrned this morn
ing will be the rosult on presidential elect
ors, even if that shall be known. The bal
lots are so badly scratched that the count
oannot be oompleted In any of the large
preolnota before morning.
Yankton. Chairman Elliott of the Re
publican commltte la sanguine that his
estimate of 8,000 for MoKlnley will be
low. It all depends npon the country
preolnots. The towns all give MoKlnley
good majorities, but the oounty is liable
to reduce the majority to 6,000. About
all that can be learned will bs the result
on presidential eleotors.
Colorado.
Denver, Nov. 4. The vote In Colorado
Is about 180,000. There Is no question of
ths election of the Bryan and Sewall
eleotors by over 100,000 plurality. State
ohairman of the Silver Republicans claims
the election ot Adams, Democratlo Silver
Republican candidate for governor, by
14,000 plurality, while the chairman of
tbe Popultst state oommlttee claims the
success of Bailey, Populist-Sliver party
combination candidate, by 18,000.
California.
' WA8HTN0TON, Nov. 4. A private dis
patch reoelved in this city from California
says the returns are coming in slowly and
that nothing oonnlnslve oan be had for
several hours. The votes In the cities
show large Republican galna. The Re
publican atate oommlttee olnlans California
by a good majority. The Demoorats still
olalm 86,000 for Bryan. H lid born (Rep.),
Third district, is re-elected.
Nevada.
Carson, Nov. 4. It will be Impossible
to give oomplete returns from Nevada for
several days, communication being slow,
but Indications are that Bryan's plurality
will be far from aa large as at first esti
mated. Probably it will not reach 3,000.
Montana.
Bottb, Nov. 4. Bryan's majority in
tbe state may reach 16,000. Tbe entire
Democratlo-Popull8t fusion atate tioket is
eleoted, with the possible exoeptlon of as
sociate Juatios of tbe supreme oourt, treas
urer and secretary of state.
Utah.
Salt Lake City, Nev. 4. The returns

Bryan haa oarrled tha state by at least 10,
000 plurality.
