These ships are designed chiefly for service in the Philippines, being admirably adapted for work in the narrow bays, where larger vvessels could not enter. If the islands become part of the United ‘States it will always be necessary to maintain several small gunboats there, and the captured Spanish ships would answer nicely for this service.

In New York. 3t. Louis Republic. From a plurality of 219,992 for governor the New York republicans have been dimirished to a plurality of about 20,000. This shrinkage is remarkable. It has taken place in two years. Making ali due allowances for the diminution of the total vote conse- quent on an off year, this overcom ing of nearly 200,000 votes by the democrats in so short a time is almost phenomenal. Especially is the comparison of results striking when it is consider- ed that the republican candidate for governor of New York this year was one of the most popular heroes of a successful war—a national figure with allthe advantage of military prestige and enthusiasm at his back, | while his democratic opponent, a thoughan upright citizen and an honorable man, wasa_ civilian who} before his nomination had scarcely} ever been heard of outside his judi-| cial district. When it further considered | that the democratic defection in the| state and in the metropolitan dis-| trict caused by the earclusion of | Judge Daly from the ticket nominat- | ed at Syracuse is estimated to have caused a cessation from Van Wyck ot enough votes to have elected him | by a good plurality, there is little room for boasting about republican success in the empire state. And when the gain of 13 demo- cratic congressmen, reducing the | is ja certain both, however, Mr. Baboock concedes that the chances are favorable to the democrats. He claims neither of} them. Tonight Mr. Babcock’s figures} show the election of 185 straight) republicans, 163 democrats, six pop-| and one silver republican. | ulists These figures do not include the two doubtful districts mentioned. Con- ceding these two districts to the democrats as & means of reaching definite results, Mr. Babcock claims raajority of 13 over all| | opposition.

St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 9.—A special | to the Post-Dipatch Tex., says: Yesterday was a bloody election day in Texas. At Hubbard, Stephens county, Roscoe McCarty, Joseph Ramby and Jefferson Squires were killed, and J. F. McCarty and Riley Squires probably mortally wounded in an election quarrel. At Steuben, Hopkins county, R E. Sutton and George Young were killed. William Young is in jail as a party to the killing of Sutton, who bad murdered Young’s brother.

The legislature having gone heavily democratic, it is not unlikely that Governor Russel! will be impeached.
