MeKinley, each one swelling the total of states claimed as certain for the republican candidate. First came a dispatch from William Hahn, long and intimately known by Mr. MeKin- ley, stating that Illinois, lowa, Ken- tucky, Tennessee, Minnesota and Mich- igan were safe for McKinley. This was soon followed by a more detailed Statement of the states from Secretary Payne, who, in the absence of Chair- man Hanna, in charzeat Chicago head- quarters, gave McKinley majorities. The detailed returns which were read as they came appeared to bear out the claims from he adquarters, and the spirit of victory achieved was on every lip. Gov. McKinley had joined his wife and good mother in the parlor across the hall, which was closed to the’ general public. At nine o'clock the major’s nephew, Mr. Sazton, emerged from the parlor and handed Mr. Cooper a private dispatch just received. Tt was from Garrett A Hobart, vice presiden- tial candidate. who at this early hour felt that the victory was won and tele- graphed his congratriations. There was a round of upplause from the group within the library as Mr. Hobart’s words were read. Soon there- after Maj. MeKinley came from the parlor and joined the crowd in the outer room.

Returns are coming inso slowly that it ig absolutely impossible at this time to give any figures as to the legislature, The republicans claim they will havea good majority, however. Chairman mpson is confident that Kansas is safe for the republican ticket. Chain Breidenthal, of the populist committee, claims the state by 15,000 for the State and national tickets; claims seven con gressmen and five apnellate judges, Chairman Briedentha!, of the Pop. ulist state committee, is confident that the state has gone for Bryan and fa sion. “The reports from scattering precincts,” he said, “show marked re= publican losses and confirm my ante. election predictions. We have carried the state for Bryan and elected the fu- sion state tieket by safe majorities. I believe we have elected seven of cight congressmen, ‘Tie republican y elected Broderick in the trict. Iam confident we have carried the legislature.” Chairman Love, of the democratic committee, said that he thought Mr. Breidenthal had stated the situation correctly. Mr. Love has a telegram from Arkansas City, an- nouncing the election of Brown (fw sion) over Beekman (rep.) for repre sentative from Cowley county. Indications are that MeKinley has ahead of the national ticket, but the tardy, owing tothe yreat length of the man, runs up with Morrill. Shawnee county rolled up the usual republican majority. The count is progressing slowly on account. of the big ballot, but if the percentage is maintained McKinley will have 2,500 majority. Morrill’s majority — will reach 2,700 according to indications, while Curtis for congress will get even a larger majority. Sterne (rep.) has been elected senator, and McKeever, Brooks and Larimer, the three repab- lican candidates for the legislature, each has a good majority. Indications are that McKinley h earried Douglas county by i,200 plure ality, a republican gain of 200 votes over 189%. Morrill has probably car- ried the county by 1,150, a republican gain of 1,109 over 1894. J. P. Harris probably has 1,150 plurality for con- gress. Henley and Barder, both re publicans, are elected representatives, and Jolinson (rep.), state senator. Indication are that MeKinley has earried Montgomery eounty by 150 plurality, a fusion gain of 50 over 139% Morrill has probably earried the coun- ty by 200 plurality, a republican gain of 150 over 1894 Kirkpatrick (rep.) probably has 125 plurality for con- gress. Guilkey (rep.) probably elected representative, and Fulmer (rep.) state 2nator. A telegram from Hutchinson says: Two wards of Hutchinson, the city of ickerson and seven country precincts ive MeKinley 200 majority. Indiea- tions are MeKinley carries Reno coun ty by 500, the state ticket by the same, with Lonvz. for congress, slightly ahead of McKinley. Dispatches from coun- ties west, without complete returns, indicate that it is close between Long and Simpson, depending upon the rote in Sedgwick and Sumner counties. ations are that Bryan has care Sumner county by 159. Simpson (fusion), for congress, will have a ma- jority over Long (rep.).
