ETURNS from remote precincts which drifted in yesterday were slightly favorable to Governor- elect George C. Pardee. Accord- ing to The Call's figures he has a plurality of 3266, with but few precincts to hear from. No returns have been re- ceived from Alpine Coynty, and but one Mariposa precinct has reported. The pre- cinets to be heard from outside of these two counties will return Pardee plurali- ties. Mariposa is believed to have given Lane a plurality of about 250, and Par- dee's lead, when the full returns are in, will be slightly in excess of 3000, The Associated Press-Western Union bureau has received the full vote of 2221 out of 2597 precincts. Thsse give Pardee 132,648, Lane 120,820. Pardee's plurality 2828. This bureau ceased taking returns | yesterday, announcing that the precincts yet to be heard from could not materially change the result. It is probable that the least plurality received by any nominee on the Republi- can State ticket below the office of Gov- ernor will exceed 12,000. Frank C. Jordan, for Clerk of the Supreme Court, prob- ably will lead the ticket with more than 50,000 votes to the good. Four countles alone—San Francisco, Alameda, Los An- geles and Sacrumenlo—u%we Jordan plu- ralities aggregating 28, But few counties have reported the re- sult on the amendments, but these few leave no doubt,that Amendment No. 28 has been buried under an avalanche of | votes. | Yesterday's returns aid not change the situation in any of the Congressional dis- tricts, and there is no longer reason to doubt that Bell (D.) has defeated Coombs (R.) in the Second District. Gillette (R, has increased his lead over Ford in the First, and his plurality may reach 1800. B AL GOVERNOR-ELECT PARDEE ! REGAINING HIS HEALTH Lumbago and a Bad Right Hand Still Keep Him Confined to His Home. Yesterday was another quiet day for Gowernor-elect George C. Pardee. The coming chief executive of the State was able to get out of bed, but he did not get out of doors. He is still taking a little care of himself, just as a matter of precaution, and if the weather con- tinues threatening it may be several days | before he is able to get to San Francisco or receive visitors. But while the next Governor is con- fined to his home with lumbago the mes- senger boy and the postman make trips to the house every few minutes. Dr. Pardee is in receipt of an average of fifty telegrams a day and about 200 let- ters. The telegrams are from very per- sonal friends and party leaders. The let- ters are of all kinds, sizes and colors. They range from a rough scrawl of con- gratulation in a manila envelope to a scented document in pink. Most of them are letters of congratulatfon, some are requests for positions and some are filled with advice as to how the government should be run. Dr. Pardee is suffering from a very bad right hand, caused by the great amount of hand-shaking that he did during his tour. There is a little corn upon each knuckle and there was so much vain in thc hand itself that for a while' a felon was feared . thrill to literature.’ Jack Lendony Novel A DPauchter Jack Lenden) Nevel ADOighter 1Moy “Hamlin Garland and Rudyard Kipling have written no better.”—San Francisco Call, “Jack London is himself.

Special Dispatch to The Call. . OROVILLE, Nov. 7.—D. P. Merrill, one of the best known residents of Butte County, was found dead on the veranda of his residence this morning. Merrill was Tax Collector of Butte County from 18%. until 1899 and this year was the un~ successful Republican nominee for that office. The fact that four years ago he ran independently and probably was the cause of the defeat of the regular Re- publican nominee induced many Repub- licans to support the Democratic nomi- nee at this election and the embarrass- ment of @ bad defeat may have been par- tially responsible for his death. Merrill’s body was found by a Chinese servant. It was ascertained that he had left town early in the evening and prob- ably had been on the veranda all night. He was sitting in a chair and held his latchkey in his hand. A Coroner’s jury rendered a verdict thdt Merrill died of heart failure, e Marin County Pluralities.

NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—As the result of the election made it certain that the Re- putlicans would have a majority in joint ballot in the next Leglslalure. there has been much discussion among the *Repub- licans as to whether Senator Platt would be a candidate to succeed himself in the Senate when the Legislature meets in January to elect his successor. There has even been rumor of possible opposition. Platt said to-night that he was reluctant to accept re-election, but that he might feel it necessary to return to ‘Washington in the interest of party organization in the State. He intimated that if he should withdraw there would be so much rivalry for the vacancy that Republican harmony would be seriously endangered. 1 don’t want to go back to the Senate,” Platt said, “and I would not think of do- Ing so except in the Interest of the party, Senator Depew came in to see me to-day and told me that my return to the Senate Was a party necessity,” —_ Defeated Candidate Cries Fraud. CHICAGO, Nov. 7.—The Record-Herald to-morrow will say that Daniel Healy, Kepublican candidate for Sheriff at the Tecent election, claims that he has been clected Sheriff, and that the count that showed the election of Thomas Barrett by about 7000 plurality is false. It fs al- leged that the total vote for Sherift was in excess to the extent of over 3000 votes of the number of ballots issued in the ceunty for the election.” According to a report from the Board of Election Com- missioners between 284,000 and 225,000 bal- lots were issued at the polls, including the number destroyed and those wrongly stamped. Figures are given on the total vote for Sheriff at 204,943, Where the dif- Lerence comes in has given rise to the cry of fraud in the interest of somy -~ date for Sheriff on the ticket. il AE i State Results in Colorado. DENVER, Nov. 7.—Practicall - plete returns have now been }"ec:‘li":d from every county in the State and they chow that the Legislature will stand on joint ballot, according to the face of the returns: Democrats 54, Republicans 46. This is a gain of one Democrat from estimates heretofore made. Late returns from Chaffee County show the election of the Democratic candidate, The returns also show the ‘election of Mrs. Grenfell (D.) for Superintendent of Schools, Says Democrats Are -Cheating. BRISTOL, Tenn., Nov. 7.—The result of the election in the Ninth Virginia Con, gressional District is not known. Con- gressman Rhea (D.) claims he has & majority of %33 over Slemp. (R.). . There are three counties still to hear from. Chairman Lindsay, of the Republican committee, insists that the Democrats are changing the returns and throwing out precinets without warrant and that Slemp still has a majority of 300, et Oklahoma Elects McGuire. GUTHRIB, O. T., Nov. 7.—Theé official returns to-night indicate beyond a doubt the election of B. S. McGuire (R.) Dele- gate to Congress over W. M. Cross (D.) by a majority of about 300. To-night the secretary of the Republican committee issued a statement announcing McGuire's election. — SAN FRANCISCO’S MAYOR CALLS ON ROOSEVELT !
