- __ Km —— AS EUROPE. BEGARDS IT Comment of the—lgrggn Press on the Election Results. x-ADVIOE FREELY OFFERED. Great Anxiety Espressed With Regard to the Policy of :President McKinley. The “Thunder-or” Says It Was Not a Party Victory. LONDON, Nov. 6.—The Financial News says today in an editorial: “Mr. McKin- ley will do well in the hour of his triumph to remember that he was elected not on account of his protective policy, but in spite of it. For the moment British trade benefits. Millions of pounds’ worth of orders have been placed here for some time contingent on Bryan’s defeat. But it is well to remember the possibility of a re- newal of the protective policy, and that the defeat of the silverites does not settle the currency problem. ” ¢ The Times’ financial article says: “There is a growing belief. that Mr. Mc- Kinley’s election will not cause the imme« diate return of ,much of the recently ex- ported gold, and it cannot even be confi- dently counted on to stop the drain from this. side. Well informed observers, there fore, do not expect a material decline in he value of money for some weeks to come. Mr. McKinley’s great victory creates the hope that something better than the mere defeat of schemes for the free coinage of silver may be attained. Real reform of the monetary arrangements of the United States is today less beyond the bounds of probability than it was yesterday. The Republican party, which is responsible for much of the confusion of the present sys- tem, it may be hoped has learned wisdom in some respects. At any rate ‘it seems more disposed to heed the advice of its supporters engaged in business and finance.” The Daily NOWS says in its editorial on the election: “The cloud has been dispers- ed, and all projects for tampering with the currency have been consigned to oblivion. Mr. Bryan assailed the foundations of commerce, and the commercial commu- nity has given him his reward. Mr. Mc- Kinley owes his tremendous majority not to his own merits, but to his opponent’s demerits. He has not been elected to re- vive a tariff, but to maintain sound money. He has not been elected by a party vote, and he ought not, at the White House, to be a party man.” The Satirical Post. The Morning Post says: “It was the double dealing of the Republicans which gave the Bryanites their opportunity. It remains to be seen whether the Americans will benefit by this obvious lesson. It is much to expect, and we must not be san- gains.” The Standard follows the general views in rejoicing over the victory, but adds the reminder that, besides being a triumph of good faith, it is also a triumph of protec- tion. The Graphic, in its comments, says: “The American people have risen in their might and have annihilated one of the grossest conspiracies that ever was hatched by politicians. The upheaval was man- aged, however, at the serious cost of creat- ing a recognized political party of prole- tarians which is likely to grow and de- velop under the protection regime.” The Times editorial says: “The Ameri- can people have earned the congratulations of the whole world. They have vindicat- ‘ed the character of the republic for hon—g. esty and dignity and for contempt for demogogic arts. It is essentially not a party victory, and when Mr. McKinley takes the reins that fact most not be for- gotten. There is reason to believe that the victory will bring a sound money ma- jority into the senate. The immediate fact, however, is that the subversive and dishonest doctrines which Mr. Bryan championed have been spurned and swept aside by the plain honesty and simple common sense which we rejoice to note are still characteristic of the majority of the countrymen of Washington and Lin- coin.” After devoting some attention to ana- lyzing the voting The Times proceeds: “Great as is Mr. McKinley’s strength in the electoral college, it fails to show ado— quately the full extent and significance of the victory, which is the outcome of a pas- sionate and sincere revolt against the cor- rupt, influence of the silver interests and the anarchic doctrines of Altgeld, Debs, Tillman and Henry George. ” The Times concludes with a warning that Bryanism is not killed. “Much depends,” it says, “on the use which Mr. McKinley makes of his unique opportunity. It is rather doubtful, looking at the fact that he strad- dled to the last possible moment on the silver question, whether his firmness will prove impregnable against a silver major- ity in the senate. Mr. Cleveland, in 1892, had a majority equal to Mr. McKinley’s now, yet the Democrats are now divided, disorganized and despairing.” German Opinion. The Daily Mail’s Berlin correspondent says that large American orders were also placed in Germany contingent upon Mr. Bryan’s defeat. This correspondent also says: “American diplomats in Berlin are convinced that government circles would have liked Mr. Bryan to be elected in or- der to embarrass the United States because of the fear of fiscal reprisals for Germany’s vexatious restrictions on American im- ports.” The Daily News in its special article on the city’s view of the election thinks that European investments in American secur- ities will be resumed, and that there will be a permanently higher level of prices on both sides of the Atlantic. The paper’s financial article agrees with that in The Times that the continuance of a dear money market is probable and that gold will still go to the United States as the result of the rise in wheat, although it is credibly reported that very large orders for English manufactures were cabled from the United States yesterday. An editorial in The Chronicle says: “Rosy prophecy has been overdone. There is nothing in Mr. McKinley’s programme likely to bring prosperity to the masses of the people. Although a change in the tariff is unlikely for a long time, the end isnot yet. The landslide exists only in the exuberant Republican imagination. The wonder is not that such a candidate as Mr. Bryan is defeated. but that he was so immensely supported. The American people are destined to fight hard from time . to time for honesty- and order. We con- gratulate Americ‘a’dn the victory of sound finance, butthecjracmd of the Republican party is too‘bagfigfir‘. joy over the result. With regard i_‘¢f",.tii§"possibility of a tariff, We comfort (.3: selves with the reflection that nothing .. said so afi'ect our commerce is free trade for America.” The 'afte noon newspapers today "all have long comments on the result of thi; election. They are similar in tone to those of yesterday and repeat their warn- ings that “Bryanism is not dead." The-vl‘rencl: View. PARIS, Nov. 6.-—Le Matin expresses the opinion that “the election does not give cause for anxiety. The uncompro- mising protectionism of McKinley will be woakened in the exercise of office.” The socialist newspapers protest against the election of McKinley and hold that, “although Bryan is .not a real socialist, his triumph would have benefited the workingmen.” Le Soleil says that the “present state of the public migi would almost suffice for a man with emu-age to tear up the stars and stripes to find array- ed behind him all the rough western pio- neers, including many old German soldiers inured to discipline,” adding, “Will that man be forthcoming?” Le Libre Parole deplores the result of the election, which it regards as being the “opening of an era of economic con- flicts which may ruin the old world,” and says: “The recognition of the Cuban in- surgents as belligerents is included in Me- Kinley’s programme, and from that point to war with Spain is only a step. But McKinley will reflect beforehand, because Europe might well support Spain. As regards France, she has nothing to expect from McKinley, who is an admirer of Ger- many.” L’Eolair says, “The clearest result for us seems to be the closing of the Amer- ican market, and that is why it is difficult to cry, ‘Long live McKinley!’ without bitterness and reservation.” Le Journal remarks, “The mass of the American people were aware that the sil- ver millionaires would not be more pitiful toward misery than the gold millionairefi. ” Le Gaulois expresses the opinion “is at “the election was a splendid triumph for the United States. The success of Bryan would have meant the overthrow of- the relations between capital and labor and a class war. - From the point of view of Eu- rope the ultra protectionism Of McKinley renders the commerce of America and Eu- rope open to serious attack. If McKinley recognizes the Cubans as belligerents, it is not Spain alone which will suffer, and Europe might well come to regret Cleve- land, whose wisdom has prevented many conflicts.” Sees Hope For Cuba. PARIS, Nov. 6 —The Gil Bias today publishes an'interview with the Paris rep- resentative of the Cuban republican com- mittee during which he is quoted as de- claring that the result of the election is a . triumph for Cuba. How Spain Regards It. MADRID, Nov. o.——The n_ wspapers here express satisfaction with the‘result of the election and say they hope that the policy of Major McKinley will be more prudent than that of Mr. Cleveland. Globe Theater In St. Louis Burned. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 6.—The Globe theater, between'Walnut and Elm streets, on Sev- enth street, was entirely destroyed by fire today. The flames were discovered back of the stage about 2:45 a. m. Forty persons were in the building. The fire spread, but all the occupants escaped, though with difficulty. William Gray, the stage manager, jumped from the third story window and sustained fatal injuries. The Garner hotel, in the rear, caught fire and was damaged considerably. The loss on the theater building is $15,000. Preacher Johnson Must Die. - TRESTON, Nov. 6.—The supreme court today confirmed the conviction in the Somerset county court of Jacob S. John- son, the colored preacher, tried for the murder of Annie Rogeré, a colored wom- an. The court granted a new trial in the cases of Araigo and Spine, two Italians convicted of murder in the Middlesex county court. Fitz Hugh Lee Returns. NEW YORK, Nov. 6.—Consul} General Fitz Hugh Lce arrived today on the Ward line steamer Vigilanca. General Lee would give no definite information in re- gard to his plans, but said that he should go at once to Washington. The return of General Lee has been looked forward to as likely to mark a crisis in our relations with Cuba. The W'eather. Clearing; decidedly colder; high west~ erly winds. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

(i.—Mr. Mark Hanna, manager of the McKinley campaign, came to town from Chicago today, rosy as to face, ,rotund in figure, but with black cir- cles under his eyes that show he is shy a lot of sleep. ' Mr. Hanna was feeling as chipper as a man could feel who has won as great a victory as he has won. He disclaimed any surprise at the result of the election, and said he had not been at all concerned as to the result since the campaign started. “I am gratified at our success in some of the southern states, ” he said. “To what do I attribhte our victory in the west? Well, principally to the con- viction of the farmers toward the end of the fight that Republican success did not mean pure gold monometallism, but sim- ply a continuance of government opera tions on a gold standard. “The sound money issue was, of course, the dominant issue of the campaign, ex- cept toward the end, when Bryan, on his last western tour, Altgeld and Tillman created a new issue, or tried to do so— that of arraying the classes against the masses. They relegated the financial is- sue to the rear and sought to win the fight on secial lines, but the people were not with them. ”They did succeed in arousing consider- able antagonism to myself and other. Re- publican leaders on the ground that we were plutocrats. The greatest damage they did, however, was to compel me to make a political speech. “I do not care to discuss the probable continuance of silver agitation, but I thoroughly believe that with a. helping congress strongly in favor of sound money there is no immediate danger to our finan- cial interests. “As far as the tariff is concerned, I be— lieve there will be a modification of exist- ing laws to the extent of placing the gov- ernment upon a self supporting basis. “I do not know that Major McKinley’s views have undergone any change since his speech in Chicago last February, in which he said he believed that the tariff should be figuratively as long as a man’s leg—long enough to reach from his body to- the ground. That‘s an old Lincoln story, and I think it explains Governor McKinley’s position entirely. “Do I believe that the activity already manifested in business since election will be permanent? Yes; most assuredly. I believe there will be improvement all around as a result of the election. “Speculative stock may rise and fall, but I believe business will be vastly im- proved. " Mr. Hanna will remain in this city un— til next Monday, closing i‘p the affairs of the national committee here. He will give a banquet to the political reporters at the Waldorf Saturday le’ fiat. - Major McKinley to Take a. Best. CANTON, 0., Nov. 6.—-—Major McKinley was about at an early hour today, show- ing his old time vigor and appearing en- tirely recovered from the intense physical and nervous strain of the last few days. As a drizzling rain-was falling, he hoisted his umbrella, and, with a friend, took a walk down street, the first outdoor exer- cise since the electiOn. Mrs. McKinley was suiiiciently recovered from her attack of grip to be around the house. lajor McKinley’s friends, who have marveled at the work he has done and the endurance he has shown for the past five months," have been steadfastly urging him to take a trip. He has invitations from relatives in Chicago for an after election visit and has decided, upon the advice of Mrs. McKinley’s physician, to take a run up to Cleveland, where he will be the guest of Colonel and Mrs. Myron T. Her- rick for several days. What day he will leave has not been decided upon, but it will probably be the first of next week. It is not thought that he will accept any other invitations at this time, east or west, and his visit to Cleveland will be a quiet one for rest for himself. “’yomlng. CHEYENNE, Nov. 6._-—Both parties new claim the electoral and congressional vote of Wyoming. The Republican state com- mittee has returns from 11 of 13 counties, and these, with estimates of the two re- maining, indicate the election of Repub- lican electors and congressman by a plu- rality of about 200. The Democratic state committee has returns from 11 counties showing a majority of 501. They say that the incomplete counties will give a Demo- cratic plurality of 300. A "conservative view of the situation is that the state will be carried by less than 7300 plurality, and complete returns from every county in the state will be necessary to determine which party will have this plurality. The state legislature will be 40 Republicans and 16 Democrats on joint ballot.
