Democrats, Populists and Free-silver Re- .Publicans fused on the basis of two electors for the Populists and two for the Dem- ocrats. Iv is estimated that the Dem- ocrats and Populists polled each three- eighths and the Free-silver Republicans two-eighths. This city has probably been carried by McKinley and Sullivan, and possibly King County. Kepublicans claim Builivan has carried Tacoma and P.erce County by 1500 majority. Bryan appears 1o have carried Spokane City and county " by a good majority, and a number of other Eastern Washington counties. In proportion to registration the largest vote in the history of the State has been cast. During the first two or three hours following the opening of the polls more than half the vote was polled.

CANTON, Omzo, Nov.2—The weather in Cauton was beautiful to-day and a heavy vote was polled. Major McKiunley’s precinct, ward, city, county, as well as the State, it is believed, will give him unpre- cedented piuralities. Major McKinley voted at 9 o’clock. He was accompanied to the polling place by his brother Abner. They walked from the major's home to precinct B in the First It Ward, and the candidate registercd his vote as No. 230. Quite a number of voters were around the polling place when Major McKinley entered the booth. There was no. demonstration of any clraracter, and the candidate, after casting his vote, walked immediately %o the home of his mother. Major McKinley and bis brother then drove back to the candidate’s Mar- ket-street residence. Major McKinley spent the day quietly receiving cailers. He was in excellent health and spirits. He expressed himseli as being very much pleased tnat the weather 1is so generally fuir throughout the country, and declared that he expected a very large vote would be polied everywhere. The candidate is confident of success. Telegrams of the most encouraging na- ture poured into the McKinley residence over the special wires auring the day, and there were repeated calls for Major Me- Kinley over the long-distance telephones. The candidate' himself made no predic- tions and claimed nothing. The arrange- ments for the reception of election returns at the McKinley residence have been com- vleted. Half a dozen telegraph operators have been provided for, and the candidate received the news in his library sur- rounded by a large number of his persona! friends. Mrs. McKinley was very much improved this morning, and she was able to sit up while the news of the election was being received this evening. The Young Men’s Sound-money Ciub started owt at 6 o'clock this morning, headed by the Grand Army band, to make a tour of all the precincts of the city. They escorted their members to their re- spective voting places and were joined by large numbers of Republicans everywhere until the parade assumed large propor- tions. After all the members had voted the ¢l b marched up to the candidate’s home and serenaded him. No speeches were made. e AT McKINLEY’S HOME. Scenes of Rejo!cing While the Glad Nsws Is C ming. CANTON, Onro, Nov. 8.—Major Mec- Kinley received returns in various parts of the house. Early in the evening he sat in his study, where he heard the news of his nomination. After dinner he moved into the dining-room and sat in an arm- chair near the !ead of the table, which had been converted into a desk for the filing of returns. Major McKinley heard the news with his usual calm. He sat quietly while the news of battle came n and smoked his afternoon cigar. He be- | came interested as the news became more copious, and kept up a running comment on the sienificance of the renorts. Msjor McKinley is uncommonly well informed in practical politics, and carries in his mind the salient resulis for several years back in all important States. Mr. McKinley’s information was given up to newspaper correspondents, and the re- turns were read aloud to (hem after they nad been scanned by the major. At the long table at which the major sat were Judge Day, Judge Baldwin, Charles Mil- ler, Major Manchester, Major McKinley's pastor and the correspondents of the Press Associations. When the United Associated Presses bul- letins announced that the Journal had conceded the election of McKinley a cheer swept through the house and Major McKinley's face was slightly flushed. His friends crowd a about him and pressed upor. him their congratulations, but Major McKinley refused to take anything for granted, and said he would not assume he was elected until the actua! returnsand figures warranted it. He declined to let telegrams of congratulation be sent out by the newspapers till he felt absolutely cer- tain of his election, for the reason that he did not want the senders of the congratu- latory messages to feel embarrassed in case he happened to be defeated. At midnight bells sounded and bands hastened to the public square, and in ten minutes there were assembled thousands of jubilant people, who united in singing ‘Praise God, From Whom All Blessings Flow.” Major McKinley received the following telegram from Paterson: “*Congratuiations with all my beart. Glorious achievement under your magnifi- cent leadership. The manhood cf the Republic has asserted itself and the Na- tion’s honor and integrity will never again be assailed by the same forces. Mrs. Ho- bart joins me in congratulations. “GARRET A. HoOBART.” Levi P. Morton wires: ‘At 9 o'clock, from returns received, I feel warranted in extending my heartiest congraiulations on your triumphant election to the Presi. dency of the United States. New York State ratifies the verdict by giving you a plurality of at least a quarter of a million.”” Every bulletin announcing the defeat of Altgeld was heartily applauded, and the news that McKinley had carried Nebraska was loudly cheered by the people about McKinley’'s house. At midnight all of the marching clubs of Canton, headed by a firing squad from oue of the militia companies, and followed by 5000 yelling citizens with tin horns, drums and pistols, descended like an in- vading army on Major McKinley’s resi- dence. Several volleys were fired, and the noise from the shouting enthusiasts almost drowned the report of the rifles. Mrs. McKinley, who had been confined 10 her bed for a week, sat up to-night for the first time. She had a dozen ladies with her. Mother McKinley, Miss Mabel McKinley, Mrs. Henry O. Heisland, Mrs. W. R. Day, Mrs. George B. Frease, Miss Eva Phillips were among the ladies who heard the news with Mrs. McKinley. Little Mary Colby, a child of unusal talent as an entertainer and a niece of Mrs. Heisland, Mrs. McKinley’s nearest friead, sang, played, recited and danced at various times during the evening for Mrs. McKinley and her guests. Major McKin- ley went from time to time, indeed, with a great Geal of frequency, into the draw- ing-room to chat with his wife and mother and the other ladies. He was in excellent spirits throughout the evening and occasionally hummed to himselt “There Is a Land That Is Fairer Than Day.” Wuoen Major McKinley is feeling in excellent spirits he often hums a few lines of a hymn to himself. “I do not get unduly excited,” said Ma- jor McKinley when some one said to him, ““Mujor, you seem to have a tranquil look on your face.” Major BcKinley did not seem to take very much pleasure in the premature con- gratulations. *Very good, very good,” said Major Mc- Kinley when the deciaration of the Re- publican State Central Committee was read announcing a sweeping victory in the State and the defeat of Altgeld. Chairman Hanna wires the following from Cleveland: “The feeling here beg- gars description. The boys at Union Club send love and hearty congratula- tions. I will not attempt bulletins. You are elected to the highest office of the land by a people who have always loved and trusted you.” C. W. Fairbanks of Indianapolis wires Major McKinley as follows: * thus far indicate you have carried Indiana by 35,000.” NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 3—9 P, M.— N. B. Scott sent the following to Garret A. Hobart: I congratulate you upon your election as Vice-President of the United States. I predict that you will fill that position with as great ability and aignity as any Vice- President who has ever filled the chair. From the bottom of my heart I congratu- late you.” e REJOICING AT CANTON. Major McKinley Overwhelmed With Congratulations. CANTON, Omuro, Nov. 4 —At midnight, and not a second before, Major McKinley admitted publicly that he felt assured of his election. He made no announcement of the fact that he believed he had been chosen to the highest office in the land, but be allowed his friends to congratulate bim when they pressed about him. They offered him congratulations early in the evening, but he zently put aside the pleas- ant words and insisted that he could not accept congralulations till the news seemed decisive. Major McKinley made no decla- ration of any sort; he merely received the congratulations and thanked his friends for their good wishes. He did not discuss the victory or its significance. When the clubs of Canton marched up to Major Me- Kinley’s house he stepped outon the ver- anda and reviewed the parade. The cheer- ing was deafening. The first out-of-town delegation to reach the McKinley residence was one of 300 from Massillon, which arrived shortly after midnight this (Wednesday)- morning. Telegrams of congratulation are pouring in from all partsof the country. The Massillon delegation and Canton people continued their shouting for half an hour, and were continually re-enforced, At 1o'clock it was estimated that there were 25,000 people gathered in the vicinity of the McKinley home. ———— MANLEY CONGRATULATES. Touching Telegrams Sent to Mc- Kinley and Hobart. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 3.—Joseph H. Manley has sent these telegrams: “Hon. William McKinley. Canton: Ac- cept my earnest congratulations on your triumphant election. You have, by your matchless campaign, inspired the Ameri- can people, who have declared for honor, for country, for honest money, for protec- tion and for the right.” Garrett A. Hobari: 1 congratulate you with ail my heart. You are triumph- antly elected. Itis a landslide. Give to Mrs. Hobart and Junior my love.” Hon. M. A. Hanna, Union Club, Cleve- land: I congratulate you with all my heart. You have been a great leader in a great cause. The people can never repay you the debt they owe you. It is a land- slide.” AR SPECTACULAR AS USUAL. With a Flourish and Brass Band Bryan Casts His Ballot. LINCOLN, Ngsr., Nov. 3.—As William J. Bryan sat in the public dining-room of the Paxton House, Omaha, this morning, eating his breakfast in company with Mrs. Bryan, he did not look likea man with an anxious mind. He slept well last night, after the fatigues of his final day of campaigning, and was up at 7 o’ciock. His breakfast was of the heartiest; his ap- pearance bright and vigorous. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan drove in a carriage from the Paxton through the chill, damp atmos- phere, suggestive of snow, to the Union depot, where the candidate bought tickets for Mrs. Bryan and himeelf, shook hands’ with a few peovle who recognized him, and went aboard the Burlington train, leaving Omaka for Lincoln at 8:30 o’clock. Mrs. Bryan carried a box of flowers pre- sented at one of the meetings last night, while the candidate bore a bundle of sou- venirs. They took seats in the regular chair car of the train. No incidents oc- curred on the journey to Lincoln, which was reached at 10:15 o’clock. A brass band played ‘‘Home, Bweet Home,” at the Lincoln station as the can- didate stepped from the train and the members of the Traveling Men's Silver Ciub and the Bryan Home Guards cheered lustily as he passed through the double line they had formed. The band started ahead piping a lively air, the organization formed a guard of honor around Mr, Brysan’s carriage, and in this order he was escorted to the City Clerk’s office to swear in his vote. The swearing in process took a moment only. Mr. Br, mounted the stairway to the City Clerk’s office briskly, averred that he had no opportunity to get registered, was a duly qualified voter and all the rest of the necessary formula, and after getting bis certificate took his place in the procession again. The voting place for the precinct of the Fifth Ward was in a fire-engine house on F street, near Fourteenth. Mr. Bryan entered it through the double line of those who took part in the parade, and after having his registration certificate in- specied wentinto one of the uncurtained booths. During the eight minutes he took in preparing his ballots, a dispute be- tween two opposing chailengers caused some loud talk, but nothing darkened the interior of the engine-house as Mr. Bryan handed the folded ballot sheets to Chap- lain Howe. A photographer took = flash- light picture of tne interesting incident. Again under escort of the band and the clubs, Mr. Bryan was taken to his home on D street. The crowd cheered as he ascendec the steps of the dwelling, and turning to the gathering the candidate made a little speech of thanks. “‘Ladies and gentlemen,” he said, I have now done all I can to secure success in this campaign, and for me there is nothing left but to await the returns. I want to thank the good friends who have been so kind and courteous in my leaving and in my returning, and whatever may be the result of this campaign, I shall al- ways be able to say that my neighbors who agreed with me in political convic- tions did everything in their power to insure success at this election. “I ask you now to manifest your further interest by giving so much of the re- mainder of this day as you can to getting the vote out and to seeing to it that every one understands the form of ba'lot, so that no mistake will be made. You un- derstand that in this State, when they allowed the bolting Democrats to go on as Democrats, they did it in order to per- petrate a fraud upon the voters of this State. [Cries of ‘That's right’ and hisses.] Itisthe duty of all our people to defeat the fraud if they can by baving people understand just how the ballot reads, so that each person cau vote intelligently. All that we have asked in this campaign is that eaca citizen might be allowed to vote as he pleuse, and when that is done we shall all abide the result, whatever it m;‘y be.” he organizations cheered with a will l‘;nd disbanded as Mr. Bryan entered his ouse. e BRYAN GETS BAD NEWS. Over His Own Wires He Receives Reports of Defeat. LINCOLN, Nepr., Nov. 3.—Mr. Bryan received returns in his house. Two Postal Telegraph wires had been run into the Bryan residence, one connected with Democratic- headquarters in Chicago and the other for bulletins. Both instruments, an operator at each, were placed in the library, while in the adjoining room a Western Union obperator received the bulletins furnished by that company. It was understood among the friends of Mr, Bryan that he was to be left alone on election night, and as a consequence none of the local supporters or neighbors of the candidate gathered at the little G-street residence. After supper Mr. Bryan put on a velvet house-jacket and went upstairs to the private office he has esteblished since his nomination. ; Mrs. Bryan remained with him during the evening, husband and wife receiving the bulletins fresh from the wire and read- ing and comparing them together. Mr. Schwind, the candidate’s secretary, and a dozen newspaper men occupied the library. The wire connecting with Demo- cratic headquarters was idle nearly all the time. A tew dispatches for Mr. Bryan came from Chairman Jones early in the evening. Their purport was not made known by Mr. Bryan, but he said that if anything important was received from the Arkansas Senator he would give it to the press. Chairman Dahlman of the Democratic State Central Committee has sent a mes- sage to Mr. Bryan, saying thathe had car- ried Nebraska by 15,000 and that the indi- cations point to the election of the entire State ticket. Sl AND GROVER IS GLAD. With Members of the Cabinet He Is Pleased With Bryan’s Defeat. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 3.—There was no concealment of the gratification causea by the election result among the exclusive party that read the returns at the White House upon the President’s in- vitation. Secretaries Olney, Carlisle, Morton, La- mont and Wilson, the two latter having voted respectively in New York and West Virginia ana hastened back to the city, sbared with the President the full enjo; ment of the United Associated Presses’ bulletins, which from the first, as one of the Cabinet officers declared, were *all our way.” The President took an unusunally deep interest in the returns, and was glad to find his confidence in the outcome fully confirmed. —_—— BY A MILLION VOTES. Chalrman Han:ra Says McKinley Will Have That Piurality. CLEVELAND, On1o, Nov. 3.—*McKin- Jey will carry the country by a plurality of 1,000,000,” was the startling statement made by Chairman M. A, Hanna to a Unitea ociated Presses representative at 10:10 p. M. in the parlors of the Union Crub. > “‘Yes, the result has exceeded even my most sanguine expectations,’” continued Mr. Hanna. “I had thought we might not carry Kentucky und Tennessee, but those States have fallen into line nobly. On the Pacific Coast we have rolled up magnificent Republican majorities. We have achieved a signal victory in Ne- braska.” “What is the cause of thisoverwhelming Republican triumph 2" ““Why, this campaign bas set the people to'thinking, and the result is a healthy desire for a change of conditions which will bring a renewed prosperity to the in- dustrial classes. Then the free trade =nd free silver planks in the Democratic plat- form became hopelessly entangled with each other; snd this prevented a clear un- derstanding of these issues even by “their earnest supporters. The vital issues of this campaign have been so cogently and logically pointed out by the Republican speakers that the jadzment of the masses cannot go far amiss.”’ ““What is the significance of the resuit?” “My dear sir, it cannot have but one significance. It means the triumphant vindication of Republican principles and an honest currency.”’ LR THIS IS A LANDSLIDE. Perry Heath Tells of the Sweeping Victory of Republicanism. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 3.—The United Associated Presses has received the following telegram from Perry Heath, wio has been closely associated with Chairman Hanna in the management of the campaign: “United Associated Presses, Washington: At 9 o'clock to-night returns sately verify Chairman Hanna’s statement that Mc- Kinley and Hobart will have at least 311 votes in the electoral college. This is a landslide. There is nodoubt about Oregon being for McKinley, while the chances favor our having secured California and ‘Washington. We have carried Kentucky, ‘West Virginia, North Carolina and be- lieve we have Tennessee. We are certain of every State east of Colorado and north of the Ohio River. An important feature of the indications at thistime is that there will be a straightout, reliable sound- money Republican majority in the Sen- ate. We are certain to have sound-money Republican Senators succeed Hill of New York, Cameron of Pennsylvania; Voor- bees of Indiana, Blackburn of Kentucky, Palmer of Illinois, Vilas of Wisconsin, Peffer of Kansasand Kyle of South Da- kota. There are now thirteen silver ma- jority in the Senate. Indications are that sound-money Senators will have a ma- jority of at I three.” SEeey T IN NO UNCERTAIN VY. Chairman Payne Congratulates Hobart on Bryanism’s Defeat. CHI1CAGO, Iin, Nov. 3. — Chairman Payne claims for the Republican ticket all the New England States, Maryland, Dela- ware, West Virginia, Ohio, North Caro- lina, Virginia, Indiana, Minnesota, Wis- consin, North Dakota, SBouth Dakota, lowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Wyoming, Oregon and California. - Mr. Payne sent the following message: “Garret A. Hobart, Paterson: The great Central West vies with the East in showing its detestat'on of the doctrines enunciated at Chicago. All good citizens here are rejoicing at the overwhelming defeat of Bryanism and Tillmanism. May we hear no more their voices over the land, seeking to incite discontent. Our people have shown that they are capable o1 sell-government, and have rebuked the demagogyes in no uncertain terms. We have won this great victory by the efforts of good citizens regardless of previous party affiliations. Much will be expected and much will be realized from this mag- nificent result.” — JONES YET HOLDS OUT. Hoping That Later Returns Wiil Be More Favorable for Bryan. CHICAGO, Iin, Nov. 4.—Chairman Jones of the Democratic National Com- mittee shortly before midnight gave out the following: “There is no foundation for the claims of the Republicans. There is at this time no reason to think that any one of the States claimed by me for Mr. Bryan has failed to vote for uim. While misleading reports are being sent in all directions, private advices assure us that each one of these States has gone for Mr. Bryan. For two hours the most extravagant claims as to Kentucky and Indiana have been tele- graphed all'over the country, while within the last few minutes -our committees as- sure us that both States are safe for us. Mr. Bryan is certain!y elected. “We have received no unfavorable re- ports from any State we have claimed ex- cept Kentucky. We can afford to lose Kentucky and still bave enough electoral votes to win.” ¥ To this was added by E. W. Barrett of the literary bureau: '‘We have just re- ceived a message from the chairman of the State Central Committee cf Indiana to the effect that Indiana is absolutely safe for Bryan.” Allen W. Clark, secretary of the State Committee of Indiana,telephoned: “‘Sixty- five Indianapolis precincts heard from show an average Republican gain of eleven to a precinct. Fifteen country precincts heard from show a Democratic gain of about forty to each precinct. I believe the Democrats have carried the State. I do not expect returns from country districts until late.” Governor Matthews con- curred 1n this view. The Democratic Nationz! Committee also claims California by 25,000 plurality; Ne- hrnke, Michigan, Kentucky and Oregon. The early reports, it. was stated, were ex- pected to show adverse majorities. From Ohio the committee reports the receipt of singularly favorable reports from Toledo and Cleveland, but not so en- couraging from Cincinnati. The commit- tee does not expect full reports from the doubtiul States for two or three days. BRECKINRIDGE’S ANGER. It Causes Him to Encounter a Newspaper Man. LEXINGTON, Ky., Nov. 3.—Colonel Breckinriage and Pat Farnsworth, a news- paper man, had a row this afternoon. Breckinridge spoke to a number of gentle- | men standing near the polls and some one remarked that had not his name been un- der the log cabin he would have voted for the Colonel. The others, among whom was Farnsworth, applauded. Colonel Breckinridge, pointing to Farnsworth, re- minded him of a pledge. A quarrel en- sued, during which Breckinridge called Farnsworth a liar and Karnsworth re- toried with a lie. Breckinridge started at Farnsworth and the Jatter made a lunge at the Colonel. They were prevented irom doing each other personal violence. Colonel Breckinridge drew a revolver when several Silverites gathered around him in a threatening manner, but the crowd scattered on sight of the weapon. S Breckinridge Defeated. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 4.—It seems almost certain that Settle, free-silver Democrat, has defeated Breckinridge in the Seventh District. et Tlilman Yet Deflant. CHICAGO, ILn, Nov.3.—Senator Till- man said late to-night that while he did not concede McKinley's election, the re- turns certainly pointed that way. “Ii McKinley wins,”’ said the Senator, “the political agitation will still go on. It ecan no more be stopped than the agitation which resulted.in the emancipation of the slaves.” ——— Only One In New England. NEW YORK. N. Y., Nov. 4—The Times says Fitzgerald of Boston: is the only Democrat elected to Congress in New Eng- land. Itatso gives McKinley 6000 plurai- ity ‘n New Hampshire, 30,000 in Vermont, | 50,000 in Maine, 15,000 in Rhode Island and 30,000 1n Connecticut. AS VIEWED IN PARIS. Grave Controversies Declded by the American Election. PARIS, France, Nov.. 3.—The Temps in its issue this morning devoted a lead- | ing editorial oxn- the Presidential election in the United States, in which 1t says: When the sun sets to-day the great Republic will have decided one of the gravest con- troversies that has agitated that country since the foundation of the Government, and the electors wjll bave pronounced between two radically opposed tendeacies—one continuing the normal development of the States and the other impelling the country toward unknown horizons. Briefly, as between McKinley and Bryan, the solutton is simply a status quo or revolution. It i3 the first time in Americs, and perhaps the flu‘ime in the world, thata like'contest has been engeged in upon ques- tions lying upon the foundations of social order with tne issue depending upon a single throw of the dice. The Matin says: FEuropeans expect nothing from the triumph of one candi- date or the other, * With Mr. Bryan we are exposed to the consequences of free trade, and with McKinley we are confronted with the tariff restrictions.
