The President has issued an executive order directing that the regulations of the Navy Department governing the em- ployment of labor at navy yards should not be changed without the approval of the civil service commiseion. He has also placed the ordnance depart- ment at large in the classified service un- der the civil service rules. This adds about 2,100 employes to the classified serv- ice. He has also classified examiners In the Department of Justice, and excepted from examination attorneys or assistant attorneys in any department whose main duties are connected with the management of cases in court.

COUNTING ———— sSLOW Early returns last night soon built up a big McKinley column. Reports came from the east first and gradually from the south and west with increasing additions to the republican lst of states. At 11:30 p.m. reports received at the headquarters of the republican national committee in Chicago indicated that the doubtful states of Michigan, Minnesota, Il- nots, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland and Nebraska had gone for McKinley. Chatrman Jones, however, refused to con- cede any of the middle western states to McKinley, with the exception of Illinois, which he conceded, but by a small plural- ity. He was confident that later reports would materially change the complexion of the returns, which had so far been from strongly republican districts. National Committeeman Campau at that hour claimed Bryan had carried Michigan by at least 15,000 plurality, and that returns from the mountain districts of Kentucky and Tennessee would show that those states had also been carried by the Nebraskan. Chairman Jones Claims Victory. At midnight Chairman Jones issued the following dispatch: . “There 1s no foundation for the claims of the republicans. There is, at midnight, no reason to think that any one of the states cleimed by me for Mr. Bryan has failed to vote for him. While the mislead- ing reports are being sent out in all tions, private advices assure us that c one of these states has gone for Mr. Bryan. For two hours the most extravagant claims as to Kentucky and Indfana have been telegraphed all over the country, while within the last few minutes our committee: assure us that both are safe for us. If this is tgye, Mr. Bryan is certainly elected.” Mitrman Dan McConville of the Ohio democratic executive committee stated at 12:30 that h» thought the later returns would show democratic gains in Ohio to offset the heavy republican gains in Ham- ilton, Franklin and other «counties. He said that it looked as if the republicans had carried the state, but was unwilling to give figures until fuller returns had been received. At midnight Chairman m Roberts of the Kentucky republican campaign com- mitte following “Kentucky has gone for McKinley by a larger majority than it gave to Bradley last year. Early returns indicated 15,000 to 20,000 majority, but surprisingly heavy demoe| in the populist silver rongho ace thi: s have clec and ted ar stern Kentucky may re- d Congressmen in six di several are in doubt.

He get over three hundred electorat jonal states! final |, which has n claimed as doubtful by Chairman Hanna, seemed, at 1 am., to be democratic dispatch from St. Louis at that hour read: “It fs doubtful if the complete returns for St. Louis will he received before noon today (Wedn day). At this hour only sixty-cight out of 426 precinets have been returned, and tive out of twenty-eight wards in the city have rot been heard from at all. The returns from the state outside the city of St. Louis are even more meager and ineompl: The democrats claimed the solid cor sional delegation. Other Doubtful States. Texas, which at oe time was claimed as republican by 40,000, was finally conceded to be for Bryan. The Galveston ws this morning concedes the election of Bryan and Sewall electors; also the election of Cul- bertson, silver democrat, for governor. Nebraska, at 1 a.m., was claimed by the republican state committee. Chairman Post conceded a part of the state ticket to the opposition, but still claimed that the re- publicans would elect their presidental electors, the state legislature and Congr men from the first, second, fourth and fifth districts. He said that the figures from 151 precincts out of 1,600 in the state outsid of Dougias ‘county gave McKinley 2,61. majority. Populist Chairman Edmiston claimed the state for Bryan by 25,000, and he said the fusion state and congressional ticket is elected throughout. The Tennessee republican state commit- tee furnished the following statement: “The vote, if counted as cast, will give Tennessee to McKinley and Hobart, as well as to Tillman, for governor, by a large ma- jority, but information from large counties in middle and west Tennessee indicate frauds by democratic election officers on a large sca'e.” From Michigan the statement came that the republicans had carried the state by 40,000 to 50,000 for McKinley, and that Pin- gree, republican, was elected governor by a majority not far short of that given Mc- Kinley. Chairman Baker of the democratic state committee declined to make any statement further than that the few counties from which he had received returns show aver- age gains for the silver ticket of 1,500 over the democratic majorities of '92. Chairman Ferry of the republican state committee gave out the following: “Returns from twenty-four out of cighty- three counties give 17,270 majority for Mc- Kinley, indicating a republican majority in Michigan of upward of 50,000. These counties do“not include Wayne, Kent or Saginaw, which will materially increase the republican majority. Of the twelve congres- sicnal districts the third and sixth will be close, the remainder surely republican. The following messages showed the situa- tion in California: “Impossible to give figures in this state, both purties claim it. ‘(Signed) STEPHEN N. WHITE, “Los Angeles, Cal.” The California republican state com- mittee sent the following: “Forty-one scat- tering precincts out of 2,377, in California, give McKinley 1,241; Bryan, 1,189. Same gave Harrison 1,107; Cleveland, 1,019. Re- ports show gain for the republican ticket, and the committee claims the state for Mc- Kinley by a decided majority. The vote from democratic districts in San Francisco so far as counted shows heavy republican gains.” z Another Statement’ by Mr. Jones, At 1:15 a.m. Chairman Jones gave out another statement. He said: “This whole affair this evening has been most extraordinary. I have just received word from Raleigh, N. C., and they stated that North Carolina is absolutely safe for Bryan. and by at least 20,000 majority, and yet reports have been giving it to McKin- ley all evening. This is only a specimen of the way things are going. The republi- cans seem to have taken charge of the re- turns and are sending them out to suit their own purposes. There is something wrong about the way things have been go- ing tonight. Both democratic and populists leaders emphatically claimed Bryan's election. “I believe that these early reports are to prepare the country to believe that McKinley is elected,” said Chairman Geo. T. Washburn of the populist national com- mittee. ‘Our private advices from the states that we have claimed do not indi- cate that McKinley has carried one of them and we feel justified in claiming that these early republican reports are for the purpose of preparing the country to be- Neve McKinley is elected, whether he is or not, and in case of a close vote, should a contest be made, it would operate to thelr advantage. We are not justified in yielding a single one of the states which we have claimed. At 1 a.m. all reports that we have received justify us in be- lieving that Bryan is elected. If we carry Indiana and Michigan, and our reports justify us in claiming them, we can lose Kentucky, which we still claim; Maryland, Delaware and West Virginia, and gtill win. The reports from Indiana ‘and Michigan are from the sections having the best telegraph facilities and we expected them to be republican. Our strength les in the rural districts, which will not be heard from until tomorrow. The .few towns we have hesrd from indicate great gains and will offset the republican gains in the larger cities. I think you will agree with me in this,” said Mr. Washburn, turning to Senator Jones. “I do most emphatically,” said he. ‘They can’t figure out McKinley's election to- night. Its purely a game of bluff. We have the same facilities as they for ar- riving at results and tivere is no justifica- tion in their returns.” What Don Dickinson Said. Melville E. Stone, general agent of the Associated Press, received the following telegram from Don Dickinson: “In reply to your letter and telegram, my cpinion ts that sectional prejudice has beer. stamped out by all sections. The Michigan democrats have-fired both barrels at the unmistakable enemies of the republic, with no bad cartridge in either barrel. Put Michigan down as republican and opposed to repudiation and the Chicago conspiracy by upward of 60,000. Our democracy wears the signs of their treatment by the Chicago convention as badges of honor. (Signed) “DON M. DICKINSON.” Result in Delaware. On acccunt of the length of the ticket ard much scratching the count of the vote in Delaware was very slow. Up to 1 o'clock not one-fourth of the districts had been reported. Enough was known, however, to indicate surely that McKinley has carried the state by about 1,000 majority. In other respects, owing to the division of the republican party into two factions, the democrats were successful. They cle ed Tunnell governor and Handy to Congre: by about 5,04 plurality each. They have also elected a majority of the legislature. > AS VIEW BY THE EDITORS. Comment on the Result of Yesterday's Great Battle of Ballots. From the New York Sun. The country hes repudiated the repud: ators, has warned the promoters of revo- lution to keep their hands off of our i stitutions, and has voted to maintain un- tarnished the nation’s honor, by one of the most impressive demonstrations of honest and patriotic sentiment ever witnessed In our history in yesterda rout of Altgeldism. there was a pretense free coinage of silv for th the chief contest lay between suy of law and order and the friends of the Haymarket anarchists.

From the Raltimore American The good effects of the election of Me- Kinley and Hobart will be felt immediately and decidedly. Not a single prediction of the evil prophets of popocracy will be real- ized. In all business circles today there will be a feeling of confidence which has not been perceptible for four years. The magnitude of the victory is no 1h gratifying than the victory it will instill nerve into all of our statesmen, and enable them to thrust away from them that Kindred financial absurdity—bimetallism— which is not a whit less dangerous than free silver. They can sce now that the peo- ple can be relied upon to crush financial heresies of every sort whenever they arise. From the Philadelphia. Times, While the triumph carries with it all that is involved in a republican victory, it is more distinctly a victory of the patriot people of all parties of the nation over cle- ments which have impaired our credit, paralyzed our industri: brought stagna- tion upon our commerce and trade, made capital retire from active enterprise, and sought to sow the dragon's teeth of sec- tional and class hatred among the people, who have overwhelmingly declared for a common brotherhood. From the Ph! phia Inquirer, és It is a sweep—a grand, splendid, trium- phant sweep! Bryanism and Altgeldism have been buried. The country turns to a new era of prosperity. Now we shall open the mills. Honest money is safe. Busi- ness will once more be placed on a sound basis. The reaction will set in at once, and the sun this morning will rise upon a coun- try redeemed from free trade and free sil- ver. It is the end of dishonesty. ——_ ++ A Wine Sale. Early last month Consul Claude Meeker reported to the Department of State the contemplated sale by auction at Bradford of 10,000 dozen bottles of champagne re- exported from New York. He now reports the sale, which took place on the 14th ui- timo. The placing of this large amount of champagne on the market at one time alarmed the French wine exporters and their agents. They began to circulate re- ports that the wine was not up to the standard consumed in England, and repre- sented it as containing from 10 to 12 per ecnt of liqueur sweetening, which rendered it entirely unsuitable fcr the English mar- ket. Nevertheless, the sale was considered a success, and the prices realized were con- sidered satisfactory, from $),000 to $100,000, being realized. The sale was made on ac- count of New York bankers. -° A Medal of Honor. Mr. Thomas J. Callan of Yonkers, N. Y., has been awarded a medal of honor for his gallantry at the battle of the Little Big Horn, Montana, June 25 and 26, 1876, while serving as private in Troop B, 7th Cav- alry. AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN Interest in That Section Over the Result of the Election. A Novel Bet to Be Paid This Afternoon —Other Local Hap- penings. The after-clection results in Georgetown are very evident today, and almost every- body shcws some result in one way or an- other. There are more tired people than one would imagine, and husky voices due to shouting are numerous, while plenty of people are suffering from colds, which were caught during the excitement of the evening. The paying of election bets was the order of the day this morning, and a good deal of money changed hands. While most of the bets made on the general result were given with odds to McKinley, there were a good many who bet on the various states, a good many bets being registered that Maryland would go republican. A novel election bet will be paid this af- ternoon at 5 o'clock. Some time ago Messrs. Louis DuFief ana William Scheele made a Wager with William Hanlon that Bryan would win. Now that they have lost they are required to ride the winner In a gaily decorated push cart from 32d and P streets to 32d and M streets and return. After this the winner is entitled to a supper at the expense of the losers. This bet has occa- stoned considerable interest, and there 1s every indication that the ride will be wit- nessed by a large number of people. The Weather for October.
