GILLETTE PROBABLE SPEAKER OF THE NEXT R MONDELL OF WYOMING SLATED FOR CHAIRMANSHIP Republicans Have 16 Ma 16 Majority in House’ and Success in Michigan and New Mexico Will Cinch the Senate WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.—With control of the House of Rep- vesentatives placed in the hands of the Republicans by a majority | worth of Ohio, J. Hampton Moore of of sixteen and probably more, the attention of the country was cen- tered on contests in three states—Michigan, Idaho and New Mexico— ! which will decide whether the Democrats shall lose control of the Senate as well. At midnight returns from five con- gressional districts were missing—in Montana, New Mexico and South Da- kota. Without them, however, the Repub- licans have won 234 seats in the house of representatives—sixteen more than the 218 votes necessary for a major- ity. The contests which will decide the political complexion of the senate were very close. he senaté stands without a decision in these contests there are 46 Democrats and 47 Re- publicans. In Michigan the race between Henry Ford and Truman H. Newberry was so close that it was said an official count might be required to decide the winner. Newberry is still leading In New Mexico where Republicans are claiming the election of Senator Fall by a majority of 1,000 at least, not a single county had reported com- plete returns. In Idaho where 47,000 votes out of an estimated total of 9,000 had been counted, Senator Nugent, the Demo-} cratic candidate for re-election, was leading Frank R. Gooding, the Repub- lican candidate, by a little more than 300 votes. The result is in doubt. With the house firmly in the hands of the Republicans, contra] of the sen- ate is more important than ever to the Democratic administration. If the administration can retain contrel of the senate it can in a large measure} check the activities of a Repubiican house. It is doubly important to the national administration because of the part which the constitution as- signs to the senate in the ratification of the peace treaties which will cn‘ the world war. In the senate reposes the preroga- | tive of ratifying any treaties whica the president may make. With the senatorial returns still missing from Michigan, Idaho and New Mexico, the figures showed that the Republicans had lost one—that of Senator Weeks of Massachusetts -— while the Democrats had lost six. The senators who will be retired are Sha- froth of Colorado, Saulsbury of Dela- ware, Lewis of Illinois, Thompson oF Kansas, Wilfley of Missouri, and Hol- lis of New Hampshire.
