CLEVELAND, Nov. 5.—Senator Hanna, chairman of the National Republican Committee, when asked for a statement to-day on the election results said: “The returns thus far are gratifying, but T do not care to discuss the general result until further and more definite in- formation in some of the States is avalil- able.” NEW YORK, Nov. 5.—Senator Thomas C. Platt was asked to-day for a state- ment on the State election. He said ““We have to be satisfied. Odell's plural- ity is not nearly as large as I had ex- pected.” Senptor Platt said that in his opinion the trust question and the coal strike had nothing to do with the result of the vote. “The Democrats got together,” he said, “and held together, and a few Republi- cans slipped over to them.” i e <10 355 Michigan Governor’s Plurality. DETROIT, Mich., Nov. 5.—Newspaper tabulations of election returns at mid- night indicate that the plurality of Gov- ernor Bliss will run up to 3695. That Bliss was ruthlessly cut is shown by the fact that the plurality of Judge W. L. Carpenter (R.), candidate for Justice of the Supreme, Court, is 59,58. The State | Legislature will have exactly Ahe same cemplexion as its predecessor, ohe Dem- ocrat among thirty-two Senators and ten Democrats out of 100 members in the House of Representatives.

[ W., WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.—The | next Congress is Republican be- | yond the shadow of a doubt, but | Chairman Criggs still claims that | the Democrats will control. There are | positive returns from districts showing | 197 Republicans elected, and that makes | | a clear majority of the House. There are | in addition to these 197 certain Republican } districts, thirteen more that are claimed | by the Republicans, making a grand tota 0, or a Republican majority of 3I. | Only six Republicans have been elected from the South, including Missouri and Kcentucky as Southern States. The Re- publicans have a clear majority of 22 from i he Northern States, and the Democrats | ave only 60 from the North, while they | have 119 from the South. The Republicans, having control of the Fifty-eighth Congress, will begin at once the consideration as to who shall be Speaker. It will not be a prolonged or | bitter contest. At present there is only one-conspicuous candidate for Speaker, and his candidacy has been from a gen- eral declaration in his favor rather than |imm anything he has said or done re- gurding his Intentions. This candidate is | Joseph G. Cannon of Illinois, father of | the House and floor leader in the present | Congress. When Speaker Henderson withdrew from the Congresslonal race in the Third -Iowa District he opened the door for a new Republican Speaker, and the general opinion among the members of the pres- | ent House was that Cannon would be his | | successor. LITTLEFIELD AND DALZELL. There are oniy two other Republicans ramed for Speaker. They are Littlefield of Maine and Dalzell of Pennsylvania. Littlefield’s candidacy is not considered as serious even in his own section. New England Republican Representa- tives have already expressed themselves as favorable to Cannon. They would have made a campaign for Moody of Mas- sachusetts had he not been transferred from the House to the Cabinet as Secre- tary of the Navy, and he would have been a formidable candidate for Speaker because of his popularity in the Housc and his recognized ability as a parlia- mentarian and his fairness. But with Moody removed from the field, New Eng- land, with the exception of Maine, will be for Cannon and he can rely upon twen- ty votes from that section, New Yerk may have a candidate in the person of Representative Sherman of Uti- ca. Sherman is popular, but he will be handicapped by the candidacy of Dalzell of Pennsylvania. ‘' Senator Quay has an- nounced that the Republican organization of Pennsylvania will 'support Dalzell for Speaker, and that means political power behind the Pittsburg man, for Senator Quay does not make idle promises. Penn- sylvanfa cannot go to Sherman, but the friedship and the community of interests be needed to decide the candidates. REPUBLICANS RETAIN MA JORITY IN HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ASHINGTON, Nov. 5.—The latest returns received up to 10:30 p. m. show that the Republicans (including in this description the Fusionists clected from the Pittsburg-Allegheny districts/in Pennsylvania) will control the next House by a vote ©of 205 Republicans to 180 Democrats, with one district, the Eighth Tennessee, remaining 5o much in doubt that the official returns will Two of the Democrats in Cnlifornia are also Uni The totals given are believed to be correct, although there are a few district: two in Colorado and one in Minnesota, where the Republican and Democratic party managers respective- 1y do not concede defeat, but the general result conld not be affected even should their claims PpProve well founded. The table by States is as follows: of Washinalon. e THREE NOTED STATESMEN WHO HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE: EXPRESSION CUSHMAN OF W, LINCOLN OF THE WEST.” X3 HAVE BEEN RE-ELECTED TO THE S. ON ACCOUNT OF HIS FACIAL ASHINGTON IS CALLED THE “ABE - established by Senators Platt and Quay may take New York to Dalzell, keeping Sherman from entering the race. The combined Republican vote of New York and Pennsylvania in the next House will be 47 or 48, and they might draw to that support five votes from West Virginia, four from Maryland and a part of the Ohio vote. But Dalzell could not secure support in New England or in thé West. WEST SUPPORTS CANNON. Ohio is not likely to have a candidate for Speaker, though both Grosvenor and Burton have been mentioned. The State might go to Dalzell and not' give him anything ilke a majority of the Repub- lican caucus. The States west of Ohio will have about one-half Republican membership. Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, ‘Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, ; the Dakotas and States further West will have from 100 to 104 Republican mermbers of the House, and Cannon is the favorite with them. He is the only Western can- didate for Speaker. If Cannon can unite the West and New England he will have two-thirds of the Republican membership. There has been some talk of continuing the “hog combine” by which Speaker Henderson was elected. This was simply a combination to control the patronage of the House, and the Speakership was only incidental. That combination has been so severely criticized and condemned result. % T that it would be reckless to attempt to re- new it or continue it te control the Speak- ership. The, place is too important to be bestowed in that way. It created a scan- dal in the last House by reason of what appeared almost like a padded House roil of employes, and any attempt to revive the practice will be regarded with suspi- cion. LANDSLIDE IN MONTANA. Republicans Captute Almost Every- thing and Are Yet Gaining. HELENA, Mont.,, Nov. 5.—Returns to- day indicate that Holloway, Republican, will have ‘about 10,000 plurality, and Dix- on, Republican, for Congress, about 5000. There appears to have been a Republican landslide all over the State, with the re- sult that'in many counties the Democrats elected but one or two of their county ticket, where they held more than half the offices. In this county the Republi- cans elect six out of seven members. The Republicans will have a safe work ing majority in the House, but on joint ballot the labor people will hold the bal- ance of power. Of the new State Sena- | tors, who.will serve for four years and vote on the election of a United States Senator in two years, the Republicans elect nine and the Democrats seven.

EW YORK, Nov. 5.—Official fig- ures on the vote for Governor vary but litle from ‘the uncfilcia reports. = According to Teturns made to the executive at Aibany | by the several county clerks, the plurality for Odell, Republican, is 12,887 Only three counties above the Bronx were car- ried by the Democratic nominee, the ag- gregate plurality for Coler in these coun- ties belng 1011. This and the Greater New | York plurality of 122,074 given to Coler | was met and overcome by an up-state Re- publican pluralityf of 135,972, the difference being a net plurality of 12,887 against 111,- 126 plurality for Odell in 1900. Returns of the vote for other State of- ficers are so meager that it is impossible to say if the Democrats have been more successful as regards the minor officers than in the case of Governor. In some quarters it is asserted that by reason of his indorsement by the Prohibitionists, Cunneen, the Democratic nominee for At-| torney-General, has made such gains over | the, head of ‘the ticket that he has been elected. There are also claims that when | the retutns for Judge of the Court of Ap- peals are all in it will be found that Judge fGray has defeated his Republican oppon- ent. ! The State Legislature is controlled by | the Republicans by a reduced majority. but one so large as to admit of no doubt of the return of T. C. Platt to the United States Senate. The New York delegation in the lower | house of the Fifty-eighth Congress will | number 37, instead of 34, as in the present Congress. 1t will contain twenty Repub-| licans and seventeen Democrats, whereas | the present delegation stood twenty-two | Republicans and twelve Democrats. All| the. more noted members of the delega-! tion have been returned, including Sereno | E. Payne, chairman of the Ways and| | Means Committee. PEABODY IN COLORADO. Patterson’s Newspaper Concedes the Election of a Republican Governor. DENVER, Nov. 5—The Rocky Moun- tain News. United. States Senator Pat- | terson’s newspaper, will to-morrow con- cede the election of Peabody (R.), for Governor, and H. M. Hogg (R.), for COI"I-‘ gress in the Second District. Peabody's | plurality over Stimson, the Democratic candidate, will amourit to from 2000 to 4000, | while that of Hogg will probably be greater. The entire Democratic State ticket is defeated, with the possible ex-| ception of Mrs. Grenfell for Superintend-| ent of Public Instruction. She was in-| dorsed by many women's organizations | and ran far ahead of her ticket. Both sides are claiming the election of | Congressman in the First District. Shaf- roth (D.) had the indorsement of the| Populist convention and is probably elect- ed, although it may require the official count to decide the matter. Adams (D.), for Congressman at Large, is thought to lead the State ticket and may be elected, but the chances seem tg favor the election of Brooks (R.). On the face of the re- turns the Democrats will have a majority in the Legislature, but there are charges of fraud in this (Arapahoe) and other counties«and contests will be filed, which, if successful, may defcat the re-election of Senator Henry M. Teller. e R R e TOM JOHNSON IS HAPPY. He Declares That Truth Loses Battles But No Wars. CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 5.—Mayor Tom L. Johnson to-day gave the following signed statement relative to the election: “We are encouraged by the large Dem- ocratic gains in Cuyahoga County, in spite of the fact that a large vote was polled and great interest aroused on the Part of the Republicans. The majority of the county ticket was elected, and In cases where we lost it was due wholly to personal preferences and involved no po- litcal principle. But probably the most encouraging sign is the fact that where Bigelow made his campaign outside of Hamilton County satisfactory gains were almost universal. The time was too short to expose the viciousness of the municipal code and the Cincinnnati franchise grab. The fesult in Hamilton County was due to dishonest election methods rather than lack of interest. Cox and McLean con- trolled the entire election machinery. There was nothing to prevent either dis~ honest voting or counting. We have al- ready begun next year’s State campaign. This is but the first skirmish. Truth loses some battles, but no wars. “TOM L. JOHNSO: County Estimates in Indiana. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Nov. 5.—Esti- mated pluralities by countles received at the State headquarters to-day indicate the election of the Republican ticket by 26,000. The Congressional pluralities esti- mated are: Hemingway (R.) 1350; Miers (D.) 630, Zenor (D.) 3300, Griffith (D.) 2450, Holliway (R.) 2060, Watson (R.) 3100, Overstreet (R.) 3500, Cromer (R.) 4200, Charles Landis (R.),3100, Crumpacker (R.) 5100, Fred Landis (R.) 5200, Robinson (D.) , Brick (R.) 1800. The Republicans in the Legislature will have a plurality of sixty-four and possibly sixty-five. The Senate will probably stand thirty-five Re- publicans and fifteen Democrats and the House seventy-two Republicans and twenty-eight Democrats. The Repub- licans have elected sixteen Senators and the Democrats gpine Senators, who will hold over for two years and form the nucleus of the Legislature that will elect Senator Beveridg! il Rhode Island Democrats Gain. PROVIDENCE, R. I, Nov. 5.—Substan~ tial gains for the Democrats are shown by the complete returns for the State ticket. They elected their candidates for Gover- nor and Lieutenant-Governor and their Congressional candidate in the First Dis- trict, Besides, they cut down the Republi- can lead in the lower house of the Legis- lature by securing thirty-six members as against a like number for the" Republi- cans. The Senate, however, remains over- whelmingly Republican with a representa- tion of twenty-seven in thirty-seven mem- bers. The Republican majority in the General Assembly on joint ballot gives them control of the appointive State and county offices. Mayor D. L. Di Granger (D.), of Providence was elected Congress- man in the First District over Melville Bull (R.), the incumbent. In the Second District Adin B. Capron (R). was re-elected by a plurality of 30, against nearly 4000 two years ago. TRe total vots for Governor was: L. F..C. Garvin (D.), 29,825; G. V. Kimball (R.), 23,670. The vote cast was the largest in the history of the State. —_—— Missouri Democratic Plurality. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 5.—More definite re- turns from the election in Missourl tend to largely increase the Democratic plu- rality on the State ticket over the earlier estimates. Secretary of State Cook places the plurality at 40,000; J. M. Seibert. ex- chairman of the State committee, at not less than 30,000. Governor Dockery, whe is in the city, is satisfled the official fig- ures will place the plurality above 20,000, and in this view Chairman Bothwell of the State committee concurs. There was a big slump in some of the Democratie countles, the total of which will probably reach 12,000 or 15,000, but this loss was compensated for in the gains in St. Louls, Kansas City, St. Joseph and some of the close counties of the State. The ma)nr’y In St. Louis of Congressman Barthol¥t, the on!y Republican of sixteen elected, is 302§, il Nebraska Legislature Republican. LINCOLN, Neb. Nov. 5.—Up to to-night complete returns from more .than half the counties show that Mickey’s plurality will be not less than 5000. These returns, also make it almost certain that MeCar~ thy (R.) in the Third District and Norris (K.) in the Fifth District are elected to Congress, both by less than 300. This a gain for the Republicans of three Con- gressmen. The fusionists elected Hiteh- cock in the Second. The Republican mem- berskip in the Legislature is the greatest for twenty years. The combined vote of the fusionists in the House and Senate will not exceed 29 in a total membership of 133. M5 SR LT Record-Breaking Majority. ST. PAUL, Nov. 5.—With' the receipt of nearly complete Teturns the majority of Governor Van Sant assumes tremendous proportions. It is at least 30,000, and may go as high as 75,000—a record-break- ing majority in Minnesoia for a guber- natorial candidate. The Governor has ap- parently run considerably ahead of the balance of the State ticket, although the entire ticket is elected by about the nor- mal majority. Eight of the nine Con- gressmen are Republicans, the lone Dem- ocrat being ex-Governor Lind, who de- feated Lorin Fletcher mn the Fifth Dis~ trict. —— Timothy Dempsey. CARSON CITY, Nevada, Nov. 5.—Tim= othy Dempsey, one of the oldest and best- known business men in the western por= tion of this State, died in Reno, Saturday. Death was caused by pneumonia. Dempsey was well known in the sport- ing world and was active in bringing many of the principal racing and fistic events to Nevada. In 1897 he was a mem~ ber of the Legislature, and it was due to his efforts that the bill which subse- quently eresulted in pulling off the Corbett-Fitsimmons fight was passed by that body. He was forty-nine years of age, and leaves a wife and two daughters. Spooner Will Be Returned. WASHINGTON, Nov. 5—Postmaster- General Payne to-day wired H. C. Tay- lor, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, that the return of John C. Spooner to t United States Senate was a certainty. The telegram sent by Payne read as fol- lows: “State senate unanimously Republican except ~one. Assembly overwhelmingly same way. There can be no doubt abuut Spooner.” Large Plurality in Iowa. DES MOINES, Nov. 5—Full returns place the Republican plurality on the Re- publican ticket in Iowa at a little over 70,000. The plurality of P. D. Birdsall, who will succeed Speaker Henderson from the Third District, is 5255, and that of M. J. Wade in the Second District, the only Democratic Congressman elected, is 1140.
