The republican congressional committee Is claiming that the control of the next Senate is conceded to the republicans by Chairman Faulkner, and they have no doubt but that they will have it. They gain three seats in New Jersey, West Vir- giria and Tennessee, and word has come from Chairman Holton of the state republl- «an committee of South Carolina and Con- gressman Settle, which says: “We have carried the state if we can hold it.” They are anxiously awaiting the result in the far western states before venturing a predic- ticn on the subject, but they can hardly believe that the west will not be with them in this case, as in the past. The committee has received word by a late dispatch that Denny, republican, who Was running against Owens in the seventh, or Ashland, district of Kentucky, has been elected by ‘upward of 225. ‘The democrats ecneede that he has the seat by 125. SEER TWO-FARES CASE. THE The Attorney Asked as to the Legal- ity of Collecting Them. ‘The complaint of a public school teacher that she was compelled to pay two fares on the Belt Line railroad has been sent to the Attorney for the District for his opinion and recommendation. It will be recalled that the teacher took one of the cars of the company and received @ transfer at a point connecting with a Une of cars belonging to the same road. After traveling a short distance she was compelled to pay another fare. An investigation of her complaint proved the situation to be exactly as she had rep- Tesented it. A peculiar condition of affairs prevails on this road. The company has given orders that transfers when received are only good to the next transfer point. ‘There is considerable doubt in the minds of the Commissioners that the company has any right to collect two fares, and it was to straighten this out that the papers were gent to the attorney, LATE NEWS BY WIRE Where the Fight Has Been of More Than Usual Interest. SOLID CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATIONS Republicans Sweep Michigan, Min- nesota and West Virgini la. ‘ROM “STAR” SPECIALS terete NEW YORK, November 7.—Bartlett, dem., Is elected to Congress from the sev- ent district, instead of Ford, rep., as pre- viously reported. “Bartlett's plurality, with one district not yet reported, is 2,10. The complexion of the congressional del- egation from New York state is, according to nearly complete returns, thirty republi- cans and four democrats, a republican gain of fifteen. An afternoon paper of democratic leaning says that only one democrat has been elected In Pennsylvania. This is Erdman, in the ninth district. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., November 7.— There is little or no doubt that twelve of the thirteen Indlana congression! districts have been carri by the republicans by majorities ranging from 300 to 10,000, They are: First, Hemingway; second, Hardy; third, Tracewell; fifth, Overstreet; sixth, Johnsor seventh, Henry; eighth, Faris; ninth, Hanly; tenth, Hatch; eleventh, Steele; twelfth, Leighty; thirteanth, Royse. ‘The fourth (Holman’s) district is in doubt. Republicans Solid in West Virginia. CHARLESTON, W. Va., November 7.— Last night the democrats conceded the first and fourth districts to the republican can- didates, Dovener and Howard. Today's ad- vices from Logan county, the democratic stronghold, showed such a falling off in the democratic yote that Alderson, democrat, candidate for Congress, barely carried the county. ‘The democratic managers then conceded the election of Huiing, republican, in the third district, by a decisive plurality. Although doubt has been expressed as to the result in the second district, yet the | defeat of W. L. Wilson was not conceded | by the democratic managers until noon to- | day. The returns from the counties in Wil- son’s district show that the republicans did not cast mach more than their usual vote, but ‘hat the democratiz vote falls far short on account of those not voting. Kansas Congressmen, TOPEKA, Kan., November 7.—At 9 a.m. Chairman Breidenthal still claims the state for the populists and five of the eight Con- gressmen. He said that he had complete | returns from only two counties, Scott and Pawnee, and that they show an increase over his estimate. Attorney General Little concedes Kansas to the republicans, The republican state central committee says all the returns received show republican gains. PITTSBURG, Pa., November 7.—In_ the twenty-fourth congressional district W. O. Sipe, democrat, concedes his defeat to E. F. Acheson, r-publican, by 3,200. It is probable ‘Acheson's plurality will be about 5,000. Dis- patches from Titusville and Meadville indi- caie that Griswold, republican, has defeated Sibley, democrat, in the twenty-sixt dis- trict by 1,609. Solid Michigan Delegation. DETROIT, Mich., November 7.—The latest returns indicate that Michigan has given a republican plurality of 80,000, not more than three counties in the state showing demo- cratic supremacy. Republicans elect all twelve Congressmen by pluraliliés ranging | from 2,500. to 8,009, The ‘legislature, which will elect two United States Senators, is overwhelmingly republican. PITTSBURG, Pa., November 7.—In Home- stead borough, the scene of the great strike and riots in the vote of Hasting: republican, 581; Singerly, democrat, 21 Ailman, popu For Congress, Ac n, republican, 275; Sipe, democrat, 214. his is a_ populist stronghold in this county. In 1802 Cleveland carried the boroug LEXINGTON, Ky., November 7.—Severth district very close and results depend solely on results in Owen county. Estimated ma- jority, Owen county, 500 for Owens. JERSEY CITY, N.J., November 7.—Chair- man Woolley of the republican county com- | mittee claims the election of McEwan, re- publican, to Congress over Col. Stevens, democrat, by a majority.of 606. If verified, this will give the republicans the entire New Jersey delegation. MIDDLESBORO’, Ky., November 7.—Col- son (republican) is undoubtedly elected to | Congress by 1,000 plurality in the eleventh district. CLEARFIELD, Pa., November 7.—Un- official returns from sixty-eight precincts in Clearfield county show the election of the entire republican ticket. Hastings, for gov- ernor, has 950 majority; Arnold, for Con- gress, has 1,200 majority. blicans From Connecticut. NEW HAVEN, Conn., November 7.—Al- most complete returns from all parts of the state this morning indicate that the entire republican state ticket is elected by between 12,000 and 15,000 majority. Republican Con- gressmen are elected from all four districts by majorities of from 1,200 to 5,500. Solid Delegation From Minnesota, MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., November 7.—A special to the Journal from Northfield,Minn., says: J. P. Peatwole claims his election to Con- gress in the third Minnesota by 500 plurality. This would make a solid republican delega- tion from Minnesota. QUINCY, IIL, November 7.—In the Illinois fifteenth congressional district Marsh (re- publican) is elected by about 1,200. The same counties gave Cleveland 2,200 plurality. EASTON, Pa., November ‘The eighth congressional district estimated majorities LF % republican; Mon- are: Northampton, Carbon, 250 ‘repub- roe, 1,000 democrat liean; ' Pike, 350 democratic; which would elect’ Kirkpatrick (republican) over Hart (democrat) by about 200. COLUMBUS, Obio, November 7.—Harris, republican, in thirteenth, is elected over Young, democrat, to Congress by 1,000 ma- jority. MARQUETTE, Mich. November Congress, twelfth district Michigan, S. M. Stephenson elected by not less than 2,000 plurality over Rush Culver, democrat. <ANSAS CITY, Mo., November 7.—John c. Tarsney, democrat, is undoubtedly elest- ed to Congress. Nearly a Republican Sweep. TRENTON, N. J., November 7.—On joint ballot the legislature will probably stand as follows: Republicans, democrats, 29. The republicans elect Congressmen in all but the seventh district, Republicans Carry the Ninth Virginia, Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. RICHMOND, Va., Novemeber 7.—Leading democrats in the ninth Virginia district concede the election of James A. Walker, republican, to Congress by 500 majority.

Hastings wi lose the county by about 1,000. Cleveland’s majority in 1802 was 3,370. DES MOINES, Iowa,November 7.—George M. Curtis, republican, is elected to Congress in the second district. Jerry Simpson Probably Beaten, KANSAS CITY, Mo., November 7.—Con- gr eventh Kansas district, Long (rep.), probably elected by about 2,000 over Jerry | Simpson, populist. SUNBURY, Pa., November 7.—Monroe H. Kulp, republican, of Shamokin, elected in the seventeenth congressional distr.ct, now represented by Wolverton (dem.), by a ma- rity of 400 over Charles R. Buckalew, democrat. Solid in New Jersey. TRENTON, N. J., November 7.—The re- publicans elect a solid congressional dele- gation. Howell, third district, 3,000 plural- ity. Pitney, fourth district, 1,000 plurality. Stewart, fifth district, 5,700 pturality. VICTORY FOR THE PEOPLE. Political Shrewdness Was of No Avail in New York. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. NEW YORK, November 7.—The mest. thoughtful mea here say that If the new powers that are chosen give New York good & vernment, both state and municipal, the democrats cannot hope to regain control un- til every vestige of their present organiza- tion has been wiped away. The republican committee hardly believed before election their own claims as to the magnitude of the victory they were to win. Now they won- der at their own conservatism and modesty. The importance of the result is enhanced by the fact that it was not accomplished by what is ordinarily termed political work. It was not the skilful manipulation of a com- n.ittee of politicians. The work of that sort was on the dther side. Political methods mest adroit, campaigning of an extraor- dinary character by past masters of the art of poiitics, were applied by the democrats, but political machine work could not pre- vail against such a public sentiment, and if there ever was a victory by the people, this looks like one. It was chiefly a fight over local issues. A strugsie for good government by people The Rev. Dr. Parkhurst. who were tired of being controlled by a machine. The good government clubs and the men generally who are weary yieldihg their independence to any party were po- tent factors in bringing about the result. ‘The chances are that these independents will stay with the republican party in the state as long as that party stands for good government. The republicans worked in a moral atmosphere and drew to themselves the entire reform element. The democrats are already talking of erganizacion to renew the struggle in a dif- ferent guise, but the result of yesterday's election has not the features of a temporary overthrow of one set of shrewd politicians by another set of politicians. It does not look as if Tammany could ever paint their tiger white and pass it off for a lamb. Whether the republicans do or do not long retain their ccntrol, there is nothing in the situation to suggest the possibility of the rehabilitation of ‘he old New York de- mocracy. The democrats have elected but five Con- gressmen in New York state: Bartlett in the seventh, Walsh in the eighth, Miner in the ninth, McClellan in the twelfth and Sul- zer in the eleventh. There is some doubt about Sulzer’s election. In New Jersey the republicans have carried the legislature and will elect McPherson's, successor to the S2n- ate, and have elected all but one Congress- man. In the seventh district Stevens, dem- ocrat, is believed to be elected, but there is some doubt yet. Connecticut has gone re- publican by probably 8,000 or 10,000, and four republican Congressmen are slected. ———— MISSOURI REPUBLICAN, The Results in the Several Congres- sional Districts. lal Dispatch to The Evening Star. Sv LOUIS, Mo. has gene republican, C. H. Burton is elected in the fifteenth district over C. H. Morgan, present incum- bent. Burton is a lawyer and a judge. Fe will be a conspienous figure in the Fifty- fourth Congress for a new man, Joy’s majority is 2,000 in the eleventh, as he predicted it would be when he picked vp his traps to make way for O'N¢#l, demo- crat, last spring, saying at the time: “I'll see you later by 2,000 majority.” He Is for Reed for speaker. Cobb's plurality in the tweifth fs more than 1,200, but F. M. Sterritt will probably contest his seat. The republican party organ ha3 already set up the ery of fraud. Richard Bartholdt (republican) in the tenth is re-elected by an increased majority. ‘Tarsney in the fifth will get the election certificate and an election ‘contest is the result. of his campaign. Colonel R. T. Van Horn, his republican opponent, claims that he has already discovered enough fraud to overcome the democratic plurality. In the fourth district the race is very close between W. C. Ellison (democrat), who is probably defeated ty George C. Crowther (republican). James Fox (democrat) will succeed Lyon (democrat) in the thirteenth by a reduced majority. The remaining Congressmen elected are democrats and members of the present House. The state senate will remain democratic. Silver Dick Bland’s majority is greatly re- duced, So is Heard’s. The American pro- tective Association cut a wide swath in this city, polling, as a distinct political force from 15,000 to 20,000 votes. .Although the city went republican, Recorder Hobbs (rep.) was defeated by 9,000 squarely on this is- sue. Every Catholic who ran was cut mer- cilessly, and yet Mulvihill (Catholic) is elected prosecuting attorney, due to sub- stantial charges of embezzlement against bis opponent at the eleventh hour. W._C. Ellison, democrat, is defeated by Geo. M. Crowther for Congress in the fourth Cistrict. Dockery probably defeated. —~- EVEN MORE THAN EXPECTED. SI Missouri Mr. Wellington's Majority © Will Increased on the Official Count. Special Dispatch to The Event FREDERICK, Md., Neverrb sult of the election in this county yester- day, as summed up in the full returns to- day, is even more indicative of a republican tidal wave than last night. Mr. Welling- ton’s majority in the county is 578, and likely to be increased by the official count tomorrow. The prohibition vote is 370, an increase of 200 over last year. The populi: polled about twenty votes in the county The republicans are jubilant over their victory, and will have a big celebration next week, ‘Bhe democrats advance several causes for their unexpected defeat, claim- ing, on one hand, that the disaffection cansed by the action of the democratic Senators in delaying tariff legislation had much to do with it, and, on the other, that local issues in the county districts, coupled with the indiference of the farmers, con- tributed largely to their defeat. Btls al Saba THE VOTE AGAINST SIMPSON. Suffrage Amendment Snowed Under. Be Women Also The Special Dispatch to The Evening Star, TOPEKA, Kansas, November 7.—The republicans have made a clean sweep in Kansas. The state ticket is elected by 24,000 plurality, and all of the eight Con- gressmen. In the first district Broderick wins by 3,000; second, Miller, by 4,500; thira, Kirkpatrick, by 1,900; fourth, Curtis, by 6.0; fifth, Calderhead, by sixth, Ellis, by 800, and in the seventh Long defeats Simpson by 1,800, Republicans have elect- ed 85 of the 125 members of the lower branch of the legislature, giving them a majority on joint ballot of Chairman Breidenthal of the populist committee still claims the state and five Congressmen, but refuses to give figg#es. Populist state’ offi- cers concede a sfeeping defeat. The wo- man's suffrage amendment fs beaten by 35,000. D. O. McCRAY, peeee Reais All One Way in Michigan. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., November 7.— Republicans carry the state by 60,000 or better. The congressional delegation 1s solidly republican. Corless in the Detroit district has 4,500 plurality; Spalding in the second 4,000, and Crump in the tenth 2,500. The democrats were counting on carrying these three districts. The legislature 1s four- f'fths republican. GREENHALGE GOES IN AGAIN. Perhaps a Solid Republican Delega- tion From Massachusetts. Special Dispatetr to The Evening Star. BOSTON, November 1.—Greenhalge is elected- governor. by over 60,000 majority. The bad weather was powerless to stop the great political landslide. The republicans ere jubilant. Senator Lodge's boasts that he expected toesee Massachusetts return a solid republican delegation of thirteen Coa- sressmen bid$*fafr to be realized. It is certain that twelve are elected, and Jesse M. Gove, “the original Blaine man,” though running in a digtrict almost hopelessly dem- ocratic, has more than a fighting chance. Everything pofjts to a complete and sen- sational republican victory for the state and congressional tigket, while the state legis- lature wil -be overwhelmingly republican in both branches. In Rhode Island a light vote was polled, but the republican nominees, Arnold and Ball, gained everywhere and will be elected. In New Hampshire the republican state ticket will not have so large a majority as expected, but will win. The two republican nominees for Congress, Baker and Sul- loway, are doubtless elected. In Connecticut there is chance for Pigott, the present incumbent; but De For- est, democrat, is likely to be defeated by Eben J. Hill ef Norwalk. Russell, republi- can, will be returned, but Sperry, democrat, is behind. , BOSTON, Mass., November 7.—All New England returns show great republican gains. New Hampshire elects both repub- lican Congressmen by increased pluralities. Bustel, for governor, gained 2,674 in sev- enty-four towns. This, if maintained, will give him nearly 12,000 plurality. The legis- lature is largely republican. No figures yet regarding congressional pluralities. Green- halge’s plurality in Massachusetts is nearly 70,000. All of the refublican candidates. for Congress were chosen, except Fitagerald in the ninth, who has 2,300 plurality. Cogs- well’s plurality is over 8,000, Figures on other Congressmen are not yet received. The legislature will be overwhelmingly re- ublican. i Boston complete—Greenhalge, 20,908; Rus- sell, 33,023; against 20,327 and 30,042 1 year; net republican gain of 5,690. Returns from outlying districts are delayed, but all received show the same republican gains. Rhode Island elects both republican Con- gressmen, each by over 3,000 majority. ‘A dispatch from Hartford reports the re- publican state ticket and four republican Congressmen chosen in Connecticut. No figures thereon have yet been received. ——__— THREE DISTRICTS IN DOUBT All That the Republicans Can Hope for in Virginia. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. PETERSBURG, Va., November 7.—The result of the election throughout the coun- try yesterday is the all-absorbing theme here today and but little eise 1s being talk- ed of or discussed. The republicans are highly elated at the sweeping victory they achieved in New York. Here in Virginia t is believed that the democrats have car- ried every district in the state with the ex- ception of the fourth, ninth and tenth, which are still in doubt. It will be late tonight before the official vote from each precinct in the fourth district is received, as the returns are coming in unusually s10W. Mr. Willlam R. McKenney, the democratic candidate for Congress from the fourth dis- trict, received a telegram this morning which stated: that Prince Edward county, with two precincts to hear from, give him a majority of 5 Lunenberg county gives McKenney a majority of between 400 and 500. Nine pppclygts in Mecklenberg county | give Thorp 0 roajority, with four precincts to hear froti, His estimated majority in the county Will be about 1,200. Mr. McKen- ney stated fpaay’ that he was confident of his election, but what his majority would be he was unablé to’say. Mr. R. T. Thorp of Mecklenburg county, the republican aandidate for Congress fom this districts telegraphed here this morning that he is elgcted by a large majority. It is certain that the contest between McKinney and Thorp Is very close, and no man can tell which of the two candidates has been ted untilijthe, official returns are all in. ‘The republicans,,,however, appear very con- fident that “Thorp has been elected by a considerable” tmrjority. Gen. Mahone was up until a Thte hour last night receiving election retiirms) and he sppears much pleased at the victory the republicans have achieved in New York. eee WHAT THEY HAVE. A List of the Offices Captured by the Republicans. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. NEW YORK, November 7.—The victory of the republicans in New York is complete in every detail, as well as extraordinary in its magnitude. This is what they have: Gov- ernor, lieutenant governor, legislature (sen- ate, 19 to assembly, 102 to 26), twenty- nine Representatives to Congress out of thirty-four (possibly one better), the entire control of the municipal government in New York city through the combination re- form ticket, and the adoption of all the con- stitutional amendments. Even the board of aldermen in the city is republican by a majority of four. ‘The proposition for rapid transit is adopted and it is now thought that the proposed consolidation of Brooklyn and New York cities into “Greater New York” has been carried. a DEMOCRATIC STRONGHOLDS LOST. y im the Keystone State is Nigh Compiete. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. HARRISBURG, Pa., November 7.—The republican victory in Pennsylvania is the most complete {het party bas ever won in thjs state. Many of the democratic strong- holds have sone republican for the first time, and the indicatious are that Hastings will have 210,000 plurality. The legislature will be overwhelmingly republican. Of the thirty Congressmen the republicans have probably elected twenty- nine, although in two of the districts the figures rua very close. The republicans concede the re-election of Erdman in the ninth, Sibley, the democrat-populist, is defeated by Griswold. MecCullen is beaten over 6.000 by Haiterman in Randall's old district. Leisnring will have a majority of 2,500 over Hines in the twelfth; and Sipe has been overwhelmingly defeated in the twenty- fourth by Acheson.

LOUISVILIM3{!: Ky., November 7.--Not since 1862 ha’ Kentucky experienced such a political uphegval as turned things topsy- turvy yesterday, The old-stagers of both parties are wondering if it {s a dream or a reality, Many- counties elected republican officers for twetfirst time and in all the | democratic mitjority was reduced. In this city; and county the democrats lost everything, with two exceptions. Evans for Congress defeated his demo- cratic opponent by 3,500 votes. The vic- tor is the former commissioner of internal revenue, and one of the famous “306” who stood by President Grant in the Chicago convention, ‘The democrats have elected Hendrick in the first, Clardy in the second, Berry in the sixth, McCreary in the eighth, while the republicans have elected Hunter in the third, Evans in the fifth, Denny in the seventh and Pugh in the ninth, Judge Montgomery telegraphs to the Evening Post, saying that he is defeated by Lewis (republican), in the fourth dis- trict. From the best obtainable tnforma- tion, it is thought Colston (republican) has carried the eleventh over Congressman Adams. All is uncertainty in the tenth, though the latest reports claim the election of Hopkins, republican, for the full term, and of Judge Beckner, democrat, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Lasle. The republicans have certainly elected five mem- bers of the House, the democrats four, leaving two doubtful, with the chances in favor of the republicans, VERY LITTLE TO SAY Prominent Officials Are Clam-Like Over the Election. MR. CLEVELAND STILL AT WOODLEY Local Republicans Are Jubilant Over the Landslide. MR. DICKSON’S COMMENTS Four members of the cabinet, Private Secretary Thurber and about half a dozen invited guests assembled at the White House last night to hear the returns from the elections. The members of the cabinet were Secretaries Gresham, Carlisle, Smith and Herbert. They were late in arriving, reaching the White House about 9 o'clock and remaining several hours. The Western Union Telegraph Company's bulletins were received direct from the wire that runs into the Executive Mansion, and in addition the party had the election returns of the Associated Press. The President left the White House for the day for his country home at Woodley about 5 o'clock in the afternoon and did not return. The special telephone wire between the White House and Woodley was utilized during the night, and bulletins of important results and fuller details in cases in which the President took @ particular interest were sent to him at the direction of Mr. Thurber. There is considerable uncertainty as to how the President views the result. News- paper men thronged the White House this morning to get some light on that point, but the effort was a complete failure. They were informed that the President would not come in from his country home today, and that it would be useless to ask him to make a statement on the subject. As one cor- respondent put it, “‘the President fled to the woods yesterday afternoon and he does not feel it safe to leave them just at present. It is said that when the President was not at the telephone last night receiving the election returns he was engaged in the consideration of applications for clemency in the case of United States prison- ers in different sections of the country, and that it was his desire to dispose of all the cases before him that impelled him to remain at his country retreat today. Private Secretary Thurber cannot con- ceal his disappointment and regret at the republican tidal wave, but persistently de- clines to talk about it. Similar reticence was displayed by Secretary Gresham, Sec- retary Carlisle, Secretary Herbert and the other members of the cabinet who were asked by The Star for their opinions. Sec- retary Lamont, the only member of the cabinet who cast a ballot for his party, is still In New York. He is expected back to- morrow. He undoubtedly has views on the subject, but is not at ail likely to express them. Secretary Herbert is the only mem- ber of the cabinet whose state shows demo- cratic gains, 2 Secretary Gresham spent a few hours at the State Department this morning, and then went to the White House for a quiet chat with Mr. Thurber, who was there soli- tary and alone. It is understood that Sec- retary Gresham subsequently drove out to Woodley to talk it over with the President. Election bulietins were delivered at the White House today by the Associated Press, and when they contained anything that Mr. Thurber thought would interest the President, resource was had to the private telephone line that runs to Woodley. The conflicting claims of the party managers in Representative Wilson's district gave rise to a hope that he may have been saved after all, and the bulletins on this point were given the right of way to the presi- dential ear. * Senator Call of Florida was asked what he had to say about the result of yester- day. “Gone up, gone up,” he said, in se- pulchral tones, Indicating the grief he could not conceal. “When a party has been ad- vocating a certain policy during its exist- ence,” continued the Senator, “and when it gets Into power falls to carry out that policy it is sure to suffer defeat.” Like 1874. Gen. J. B. Doe of Wisconsin, assistant secretary of war, is. one of the few high officials willing to be quoted in regard to the elections. He spoke briefly as follows: “The election in some respects reminds one very much of that of 1874, and while unprecedented in its extent, it is the kind of an expression of disapproval which is usually evinced toward the administration after great commercial disturbances and an experience of what is called ‘hard times.’ It will be amusing to see in the opposition newspapers the prominence which will be given to notices of resuming factories and increased business, which have been so carefully excluded from their columns for some months. This election will also be claimed by the late calamity howlers to be a decisive verdict against tariff reform, but it is in fact nothing of the kind. That is an issue which neVer will be settled until a tariff for revenue has been given a fair trial.” Air of Gloom. ‘The down-town departments were not so cheerful today as were republican head- quarters. There was absolutely an air of gloom. In the Post Office Department thera was an absence of prominent officials. Post- master General Birzell bas been confined to his home by sickress for several days and remained there tcday. First Assistant Postmaster Jones is in Ulinois, where, it is said on department authority, he went to vote the democratic ticket. Second Assist- ant Nelson is on sick leav ‘hird Assistant Kerr Craig is voting for democracy in North Carolina, and Fourth Assistant Max- well went back to New York. The reporter was told at his cffice that Mr. Maxwell's vote does not appear in the returns from that state. Over at the Department of the Interior nobcdy is saying a word, Every- body with whom The Star man tried to talk refused to do so, if what they said was to be printed. They were timid about be- ing quotei, Privately, cne or two officials said that everything appeared to be against the party,and that no theory could be form- ed which would indicate the cause of the democratic defeat. One official was hopeful and declared that the democracy would have to take a fresh “holt.” Mr. Dickson's Comments. An air of chastened gloom pervades the faces of well-known democrats around town. Very few had anything to say. One of those who talked was Mr. William Dick- son, who said: “In my opinion, the letters which President Cleveland wrote upon the tariff! bill and saw fit to have made public gave the republicans an irmense amount of ammunition, which they used to deadly effect. But, then, Cleveland didn’t and don’t care about that. There are only two persons in the universe, according to his ideas—himseif and the Almighty.” Republican Comments. Myron M. Parker, e€x-District Commis- sioner: “Of course I am gratified beyond measure. The immensity of the victory was unexpected. It signifies that the peo- ple were tired of tariff agitation and the commercial unrest resulting from it, and wanted business to settle down on an even keel and go ahead smoothl, Ex-Senator Win. Pitt Kellogg: “I am not surprised much. I bet 5 to 1 yesterday on Hill’s defeat, and even money on Morton having a plurality of 70,000. The result will be to give an impetus to values all over the country and especiaily here in Washington. I have advanced the price of the real estate I hold in the District of Columbia 25 per cent on account of the re- publican victory. Oh, yes, business will be- come healthy again at once, for the fear of future injury to it by specious legislation has been dissipated.” A. M. Lothrop of the firm of Woodward & Lothrop: “I am pleased to death at the result. What does it mean? Why, that the best element of the people are in the ma- — and determined to run the govern- ent; it means good business, too.” Col. Perry Carson has been ill for some weeks, but he propped himself up in bed t@s morning when a Star reporter called upon him and gave three cheers for the “Grand Old Party.” Perry said it was a victory all along the line, and meant a re- publican President in 1896. “It means,” he sald, “that the American people have again asserted themselves. Morton's victory in New York places him in the van of avail- able candidates for 1896, when the republi- can party will carry the standard of pro- tection to victory.” EXTRAORDINARY REVOLUTION. Ex-President Harrison Discusses the Election: INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., ‘November 7.—In Tesponse to @ request by the Associated Press today for an expression of his views regarding the result of yesterday's election ex-President Harrison said: “It is the most extraordinary political revolution the country has ever witnessed. ‘Wherever there was a free ballot the vote of confidence given in 1892 to the demo- cratic party (if one was given) has been recalled and @ vote of utter and final re- pudiation substituted. “The incoherence of the democratic party Was revealed the moment power was given to it to deal with national affairs. The in- sincerity of its platform makers w: ex- posed when ‘Be it enacted’ took the place of ‘Be it resolved.’ For thirty years party expediency has been substituted by the leaders for party principles, and expediency had as many faces as there were congres- sional districts. Every eccentric cross-current of popular prejudice was followed as if it were the gulf stream. No passion was too wild or violent for a demccratic mount. Classes were created and inflamed to outbreak and disorder. In one state a debauched cur- rency and in another a socialism that was near to anarchy were given a bed. Prop- erty, especially mills and factories, were invested and assaulted in one section, and in another trusts were secretly coddied. “The old democratic doctrine that favored the levying of custom duties to the limit of an adequate revenue was abandoned. A deficiency to be made by bond issues or by internal taxes was preferred to the inci- dental protection that adequate customs duties would give. The silver question was dealt with in the most vacillating and ir- responsible manner. “Mr. Cleveland described the situation perfectly when he said in his letter to Mr. Wilson, “They (the democracy) are down- cast under the assertion that their party fails in ability to manage the government.’ “A vast majority of our people believe in @ protective tariff--never so many and never so strongly as now. They differ as to rates and scheduies, but not as to the principle They believe in reciprocity as the first method of getting foreign markets. They believe in a progressive and American for- elgn policy. The workingmen voted their prejudices in '92: this year they voted their patriotism and their Icve of home. “The enormous falling off on th cratic vote everywhere is not less empha’ in its meaning than the majorities. “The great victory secured by the reform- ers in New York city ought to have been mentioned m the Thanksgiving proclama- tion—perhaps it would, if it had come earlier. It gives the assurance so much needed, that there is an adequate recupera- tive rower in the most ring-ridden com- munities; that popular government is equal beri severest test—the control of great cities. “The lesson? Trust the people. The duty? Exercise the offices they have confided to us with the highest fidelity and patriotism. “About Indiana? Well, language fails me. I am proud of her.” — NINETEEN IN THE HOUSE. That is the Republican Strength in the Ohio Delegation. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 7.—Chair- man Dick and State Librarian Smith are at work making an estimate of the vote from county reports. Many are not heard from at all, and in a number of those that have reported comparison is made on the congressional lastead of the state ticket. Telegrams are being sent to the county chairmen for specific statements and it is hoped that this afternoon a tol- erably exact statement of the result in the state may be made. State Librarian Smith says now that the repubiican plurali- ty will probably approach 200,000 closely. Chairman Dick now says that S. R. Har- ris is certainly elected in the thirteenth and A. 8. McClure in the seventeenth dis- trict, making the republican strength in the next Ohio delegation nineteen sure. He does not concede the election of Sorg in the third district nor Layton in the fourth, but he had a telegram from W. D. Davis, the republican caniidate in the fourth district, on which he claims his elec- tion. The democrats cannot have more than two and possibly no members of the next Ohio delegation in Congress. esis REPUBLICANS CARRY BALTIMORE. ‘he State is Lost to the Democrats by Some 4,000 Plurality. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. BALTIMORE, Md., November 7.—Com- plete returns from all the precincts in Maryland show the election of W. B. Baker, republican, in the second district, by a ma- jority of 254 over J. F. C. Talbott, demo- crat. Chas. Coffin, republican, is elected in the fifth district, over Wells and Rogers, democrats, for boty the long and short terms by a plurality of 2,200. Geo. L. Wel- ington, republican, is elected in the sixth district by a majority of 3,100, H. W. Rusk, democrat, is re-elected in the third district by a majority of 429. J. K. Cowen, demo- crat, is elected in the fourth district by a majority of 950, and J. W. Miles and W. L. Henry, democrats, are elected in the first district by majorities of about 400. All the defeated republican candidates have given out that they will make a con- test for the seets on the ground of fraud. There is no doubt but they can make out strong cases, as all sorts of frauds, especial- ly by repeating, were openly used in all parts of the city and state. John J. Dobler, republican, was elected judge of the supreme bench by 3,500 over State’s Attorney Kerr, the democratic can- didate, and the republicans have elected a majority of the city council for the first time since the war. On the local ticket the republicans have carried the city by a ma- jority of the votes cast. This is the great- est surprise of the election and is the most crushing blow the ring has ever received. ‘Tonight the republicans will have a great jollification meeting, at which all the can- didates-elect, as well as those who were defeated, will be present. From the figures given above it is found that the republicans carried the state by a plurality of 3,775. 2 seal SELES, NORTH CAROLINA IN DOUBT. The Fausionists Claim the State—or- ficial Count Probably Necessary. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star, RALEIGH, N. C., November 7.—It is even yet impossible to give a correct’ estimate of the result in North Carolina. The state is in doubt. Fustonists are now claiming that they have elected their state ticket by a big majority, and some of them declare the democrats have lost every congressional district. It was never harder to get defin- ite news. The three state chairmen are apparently watching one another, and none of them will give out information of value. The democrats contend that they have elected their state ticket, but that the majority is small, They are greatly depressed by the result of the election, which was a slump unexpected by nine-tenths of them. It is claimed by them that Shaw is elected to Congress in the third district, and that the outlook for Woodard is good in the secon@. it is generally conceded that Settle (re- publican) is elected in the fifth district, and of this there is practically no doubt. Things look worse for the democrats this morning than they did 'ast night. The first, fourth, seventh, eighth and ninth districts are In doubt. It is confidently claimed by the democrats that they have elected Lock- hart in the sixth. Most well-informed per- sons think an official count, which will be made tomorrow, will be required to deter- mine the fact: For Other Political Telegrams See Page —_. Baltimore Markets.

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS —-— + Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. NEW YORK, November 7.—As an indorse ment of yesterday's political revolution prices were bid up from 1-2 to 2 1-2 per cent at the opening of today’s stock market on a good volume of business. The effort to make initial figures reflect the enthusiasm of the street was a trifle too theatrical to be permanently effective. First prices were therefor the best for the day. Selling for both accounts was naturally attracted by the suddenness of the advance and senti- mentality was forced to yield to more sub- stantial arguments. The sentiment of the street, however, is decidedly improved by the character of yes- terday’s victory, as the tariff and silver questions are less likely to be perverted into confidence-destroying arguments, The inability of the populists to extend their influence in legislative circles is also reassuring to the financial world generally, both in this country and in Europe. The improvement, to be beneficial, must be con- servative, and during the process rallies and reactions must follow each other, with the former course the more clearly defined. Sugar opened at an advance of 2 1-2 per cent, but declined 3 on liberal selling later in the day. Opinion differs as to the sig- lections nificance of yesterday's el as applied to this property. The introduction of a free sugar bill, with reasonable proba- bility of its becoming law at the next session of Congress, is considered inevit- able by the bears on the stock, while the bulls refer with significant emphasis to the defeat of such an attempt a few months ago. The alternation of these opinions will be utilized by the manipulating interest to profitable advantage during the winter months. The balance of the industrials ~ off in sympathy with the general mar- et. London scold Denver preferred and in- vested the proceeds in St. Paul, but had little other business on this side. oe FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, The following are the opening, the high- est and the lowest and the closing prices of the New York stock market today, as re- ported by Corson & Macartney, members New York stock exchange.
