Tun EVENIING"GAZE
me up the Democratic successes in Penn-
6 l'vania, as the Republican legislative
candidates in nearly every case were
elected.
In this city a fierce factional fight was
Waged betwoen the regular Republican
organization and the independent Repub-
licans over the shrievalty. The independ-
ent Republican .shrievalty candidate was
also nominated by the Democrats, and he
was elected by about 20,000 majority.
PITTSBURG, Nov. 5.—Congress, Penn-
sylvania. Twenty-sixth district, John C.
Sturtevant, Republican, elected. Sturte-
vant was opposed by Hon. Joseph C. Sib-
ley, and the vote was very close.
RHODE ISLAND.
PROVIDENCE, Nov. 5.——The victory of
the Republicans in Rhoda Island was far
gr‘qater than the’ most sanguine had antic-
pated. Everywhere the gainsflwere be-
yond all expectation, and when the vote
was completed it showed that McKinley
had been elected by a plurality of 24,336
as Compared to Harrison’s plurality of
about 2,000 in 1892.
SOUTH CAROLINA.
CHARLESTON, Nov. 5.—-Bryan will carry
the state by an estimated. plurality of 30,-
000. All seven congressmen are Demo-
cratic.
. SOUTH DAKOTA.
HURON, S. D., Nov. 5. —One hundred
and fifty~six out of 1,097 precincts in
South Dakota give McKinley 10,632;
Bryan, 9, 411. Same precincts in 1894 gave
Republbieans 10,671; oppositions, 8,408.
On the same ratio the state will go for Mes
Klnley by only 200. The country precincts
may wipe this out.
YANKTON, NOV.” 5. —Returns from the
state are hard to get. Only one-third of
the vote has been received Out of 30,000
votes cast McKinley has 1,500 majority.
The gain in the Bryan vote over estimates
is 20 per cent thus far, while McKinley’s
gain is only 3 per cent. If this continues,
Bryan will have a majority. All of the
towns of importance gave McKinley good
majorities except Yankton and. Sioux
Falls, where the vote was about a tie.
T E N N E SS E E.
NASHVILLE, Nov. 5 ——Returns received
from the state are very meager. The
Democrats are claiming the state for Bry-
an, and. there is a probability that he will
gal; a small plurality. The Republicans
s '11 claim the state by a small plurality
and are more confident of the election of
their candidate for governor.
TEXAS.
DALLAS, Nov. 5.—The count is slow.
Nothing official can be obtained, and it is
hard to estimate the result in Dallas.
{Bryan will carry the state by nearly 50,-
000, with the Democratic state ticket
somewhat behind.
UTAH.
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 5.-——Bryan has
carried Utah, but it is impossible yet to
. state the majority.
V E R M O N T.
MONTPELIER, Nov. 5 —The emphatic
way in which the Green Mountain State
voters expressed themselves in the Sep-
tember election precluded the possibility
of excitement in the natibnal election. It
was because of the knowledgé of how the
state would go and confidence of the Re-
publican party leaders in the size of .their
plurality that no effort Was made to get in
yesterday’s vote.
The returns are yet greatly incomplete,
and may be until tomorrow. The only
apparent effort made to canvass the vote
is in the cities, ”and on the strength of
these majorities the claim is made that
Vermont’s contribution in figures to the
Republican victory is slightly under the
September plurality, or about 40,000.
WASHINGTON.
TACOMA, Nov. 5.—Sullivan, Republican
candidate for governor, concedes the elec-
tion of Rogers, his fusion opponent. The
Bryan and fusion state ticket have appar-
ently carried the state by a majority of
less than 5,000 and will control the legis-'
lature. Returns from precincts in Wash-
ington outside Tacoma and Seattle give
McKinley 2,890; Bryan, 3,820; Sullivan,
Republican, for governor, 2,819; Rogers,
fusion, 3,413.
SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 5.—The Popu-
lists are claiming eastern Washington by
5,000 majority, based on estimates of less
than half of the count. The most popu-
lous counties in western Washington are
giving McKinley small majorities. The
Post-Intelligencer returns indicate that
Bryan has carried the state by a majority
of perhaps 3,000.
WEST VIRGINIA.
WHEFLING, Nov. 5.-—Eleven a. in. re-
turns from the state, which are slow, show
Republican gains over 1892, and there is a
probability that the state has gone for Mo-
Kinley. Wetzel county, which gave Cleves
land 627 majority, will probably not ex-
ceed 300 for-"Bryan. Gilmer county gives
350 Democratic majority; Mineral county
has given 300 Republican majority;
Brooke county, 189 for McKinley.
CHARLESTOWN, W. Va., Nov. 5.——There
is absolutely nothing received at Demo-
cratic headquarters by which a majority
can be based for either party. A few tel-
egrams received by Secretary Olney an-
nounce gains, but not enough counties
have been heard from to form an idea of
the result. The Democrats claim the state
by 8,000 and Republicans by from 10,000
to 18,000.
GRAFTON, Nov. 5.—Congress, West Vir-
ginia, Second district, A. G. Dayton, Re-
publican.
WYOMING.
CHEYENNE, Nov. 5.—-Thirty-nine Wyo-
ming precincts give McKinley 1,400;
Bryan, 1,462; Democratic gain of 364.
Incomplete returns from two precincts in
Evanston and eight in Laramie'glve Dem-
ocratic gain of 623 votes on 1,871 polled.
This ratio of gain in the entire state will
give Bryan 1,300 plurality. Congressional
and state tickets run pretty nearly the
same as the electoral.
lilckola on the Result.
CHICAGO, Nov. 5.—Comptroller Eckels,
who was at the national Democratic head-
quarters, said: “I think the result is just
what might have been expected. When-
ever the question has been put to the vot-
ers, ‘Will the American people pay their
debts." it has always been decided that
they would. We pay our debts. The na-
tion pays its debts. The importance of
the result in the business world is that it
means the rehabiliment of American credit
abroad. That means that investors are
willing to put their idle capital in our en-
terprises. This election means the com-
plete reorganization of the Democratic
party. For a long period of time the De-
mocracy has been the haven refuge for
every element of discontent in the coun-
try. It had to be reorganized, and now
in as good as any other time. The Dem-
gflfifiifihfii’éfifieam is prohfibly'eleot-
ed, he he ran ahead of Bryan in many see-
tlpns. ,The probabilities are the state ticket
isdivide between the two parties and
will be 6 ose on all results. The legisla-
ture, however, is largely open. In the
acngressional districts, while little is defl-
nitely'k'nown except in the Second, where
Mercer is re-elected, there is little doubt
thatthe Republicans have elected four of
the remaining five congressmen. Max-
well, silver Democrat in the Third, is
probably elected. The complete state vote
will probably exceed 230,000. The heavi-
est vote previously polled in Nebraska was
in 1894, 210,000. In view of the intense
excitement in l" Jbraska it is considered
that no disturbances of importance oc-
curred election day.
Two hundred and thirty precincts in
Nebraska outside of Omaha give McKin-
ley 22,180; Bryan, 21,585. Two years
ago: Republicans, 20,789; Democrats-
Po ulists, 18,420. ‘
INOOLN, Nov. 5.-—Chairman Post ' of
the Republican state eommitte concedes
Nebraska’to the fusion ticket on presiden-
tial electors and governor, but he says
neither Bryan nor Holcomb, the latter
being the fusion candidate for governor,
will have anything like the plurality
claimed by Chairman Dahllman and Ed-
miston, the Democratic and Populistohair-
men. He says the legislative and congres-
sional candidates are still. in doubt. It
appears quite certain, however, that the
Populists will get four of the six congress-
men, and they may have the, if not the
entire six. Returns from the state are
' still quite meager, though almost all those
received show material Republican losses.
,The Republicans have complete returns
from only 235 election precincts out of a
total of 1,600. These give a Republican
plurality of 2,450, but they indicate losses,
and they do not show the large losses in
Douglas and Lancaster counties, in which
the cities of Omaha and Lincoln are situ-
ated. Judge Post does not concede the
entire state ticket, but the opposition
claims it all, and also the legislature and
all the congressmen. It looks as if the fu-
sionists would secure almost everything,
and it is certain that Mr. Bryan’s own
state will give him a handsome plurality.
NEVADA.
RENO, Nov. 5.—The election in this
state passed off very quietly. A large vote
was cast.‘ Reports are very meager, as
mOst towns are isolated. They show, how-
ever, that Bryan will carry the state by
5,000 majority.
N EW J E R8 EY.
TRENTON, Nov. 5.—-The latest return.
from New Jersey indicate that McKinley
has carried the state by a plurality of 72,~
050. The Republicans have elected seven
of the eight congressmen, with the Sev-
enth, or Hudson county, district in doubt.
Returns from Monmouth county show the
election of Francis, Republican, for state
senator by 300. This gives the Republic-
ans seven of the eight senators, the Demo-
crat elected being Barber of Warren
county.
, OHIO.
COLUMBUS, 0., Nov. 5.——More complete
returns reduce the Republican plurality
claimed last night about one-third.
The returns from cities were received
last night, and the returns from the rural
districts today are increasing the Dem-
ocratic vote, so that McKinley’s plurality
is now estimated at from 50,000 to 60,000.
The largest Republican plurality ever giv-
en a president in Ohio was 34,00010r Gar-
field in 1880. Republicans still claim this
will be doubled.
The Democratic state committee gave
out no figures last night and have none
today, but it claims it will make gains
over the vote of the last three years,
when the Republicans had pluralities oi
80,000 in 1893, 137,000 in 1894 and 92,006
in 1895. The Democrats claim from four
to five of the 21 congressmen, and the Re-
publicans concede three congressmen tc
them. When the Republicans won by
137,000 two years ago, the Democrats
elected only tw0 congressmen.
The Democrats today claim the elastic:
of George W. Marshall, David Meekison
James A. Norton and James MoDowall in
the Fourth, Fifth, Thirteenth and Seven'
teenth districts, and that the result in th
Third and Twelfth districts is' in doubt.
The Republicans claim the election to con-
gress of W. B. Shattuck, 0‘. H. Browell,
R. M. Nevin, Seth W. Brown, W. L.
Weaver, Archibald Lybrand, J. H. South-
ard. L. J. Fcnton, C. H. G-rosvenor, D. K.

OREGON.
PORTLAND, Or., Nov. 5.——Nearly three-
fourths of the total vote of Oregonhas
been received. McKinley 32‘ .1333; Bryan,
27,409; McKinley’s plural ty 4, (24. Palm—
er’s vote in the state will be about 100. It
is estimated that the precincts yet to be
heard from will reduce McKinley’s plu-
rality 1,500, making his plurality in the
state 3,200.
CHICAGO, Nov. 5.—-A Tribune specie
form Portland, Or., says: “McKinley has
carried Multonomah county by 5,000 ma-
jority. Reports indicate a very heavy vote
throughout the state. It is thought Bryan
will come to Portland with a very small
plurality. McKinley has probably carried
the state by a small plurality. ”
NORTH CAROLINA.
RALEIGH, Nov. 5.-—Returns up to noon
indicate Bryan carries North Carolina by
10,000. Republicans at that hour, how-
ever, would not concede the state.
NORTH DAKOTA..
BISMARCK, N. D., Nov. 5.—The Re-
publicans claim to have carried the state
by form 5.000 to 8,000. Fifty—three pre-
cincts out of 123 give McKinley 2,608;
Bryan, 1,617. This is a Republican gain
and shows that the Republican national,
state and congressional tickets are proba-
bly elected, and that North Dakota will
have a senator who favors the gold stand-
ard. The roads in the country are par-
ticularly bad on account of the recent
snowstorm. It was impossible to drive
overland in certain parts of the Red river
valley.
PEN NSYLVAN IA.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 5.—-Rock bound

Kinley a majority well up toward 269,000.
Owing to the enormous size of the ballots,

The Next Sonata
WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-—From return:
thus far received the next senate probably
will stand as follows: Republicans, 42;
Democrats, 32; independents and Popu-
lists, 11; doubtful, 5; total, 90. On the
currency question the senate undoubtedly
will have an antisilver majority.
The doubtful states are Delaware. Kan-
sas, Kentucky, North Carolina and South
Dakota. The Republicans wauld need
45 with the vice president to control the
senate. The Republican senators who
bolted the St. Louis ticket and platform
are classed as independents. They are
Teller, Dubois. Mantle and Cannon. An-
other Utah senator, to be elected to succeed
Brown, will no doubt be an independent.
Tillman \Von’t Give Up.
CHICAGo, Nov. 5.-—Senator Tillman
sends the following to The Tribune: “I
do not concede McKinley’s election, -al-
though the returns up to date point that
way. If he is elected, the fight against
plutocracy and the gold standard will not
be abandoned. The present agitation can
no more be stoppedthan was that which
resulted in the emancipation of the slaves.
The agricultural classes can never hope
for prosperous times under the gold stand—
ard. ” '
A Republican Paper's Claim.
CHICAGO, Nov. 5. —A late edition of The
Tribune claims the following as the com-
plexion of the next congressional body:
Senators—Republican, 46; Democrats, 33;
independents, 11. Representatives—Re-
publican, 227; Democrats, 118; independ-
ents, 12. Populists and silver Republicans
classed as independents.
FOREIGN COMMENT.
How the Result of the Election Is Be-
garded In Other Countries.
LONDON, Nov. 5.—The election of Major
McKinley to the presidency of the United
States had a marked effect upon Ameri-
can securities here today. Business on
the Stock Exchange opened with a rush to
buy. Milwaukees and Louisvilles led the
advance, quickly followed by the entire
list at advances of $2 to $6, which sent the
brokers flying hatless in every direction to
join in the wild hubbub inside, while in
the streets customers were coming up by
the dozens.
According to the general impression,
the election will result in a rapid diminu-
tion of the gold withdrawals for the Unit-
ed States, and there is no doubt that Ma-
jor McKinley’s victory favorably affected
the Stock Exchange throughout. Consuls
Spened three eighths higher than yester-
ay.
A leading English stockbroker, in an in-
terview with a representative of the press,
said: “McKinley’s election has bodmed
the whole market. Large buying orders
from New York Were sent after the result
of the election was known in the United
States and started the market. This was;
followed by English buying of American
and English stocks.”
All the newspapers comment upon the
election. 1 '
The Star remarks: “We in England
have great reason to rejoice at the over-
whelming defeat of the attack upgn the
gold standard. Great evils may be in
store, but no high tariff can inflict a
tithe of the ruin which Bryanfs victbry
would have entailed. There will be an im»
mediate improvement of business, for the
election of McKinley, or rather the defeat
of Bryan, will restore confidence in the
financial honesty and stability of the
United States. The sound common sense
of the American people has saved the re-
public from worse than civil or foreign
war.”
The Sun says: “The great republic has
risen magnificently to a great occasion. It
is the uprising of almost a united nation,
and the silver craze has been eflectually
sootched, if it is not killed. Let McKin-
ley throw his protection overboard and cut
away from the heartless plutocrats who
have for years past made the Republican
party a manufacturers’ annex, and he will
be acclaimed by one and the republic by
the other.”
The Globe states, “Had the polling run
close encouragement would have been af-
forded to the Democrats to maintain soft
money and socialism as planks in their
platform.”
