Thus ELECTIONS
Twentynone States Elect Govern-
ors, Thirty-one Legislatures.
MANY SHARP CONTESTS 0N
California Has an Interesting Right on
Hand for the Governorship as Has
Colorado, Nebraska, Texas, Wisconsion,
Michigan. Nevada, Pennsylvania, New
Jersey and Other States.
New York, Nov. 8.-~To-day’s election
ranlm next in importance to that at
which a president is chosen. It not
only determines the political complex-
ion of the next Congress, now a matter
of extremest doubt, but settles impor-
tant contests in a number of states.
Twenty-one states elect governors,
thirty—one select legislatures, and
twenty-three of the legislatures to be
named then will elect United States
senators. The terms of thirty senators
expire next March, but seven of these
have already been elected and in the
case of the remaining senator a legis-
lature has already been chosen to name
his successor.
Besides these elections, a number of
minor officials are to be voted for and
a. number of issues are to be voted on.
Not a few of the states have gover-
norship contests on which are quite
as absorbing to the voters directly in-
terested as is the Roosevelt—Van Wyck
contest in this state. In far off Cali-
fornia, for instance, a race of excep—
tional interest is in progress.
The battle is a hard one and there
is no telling now what the result will
be. The Democratic candidate is a
brilliant and popular young man, Jas.
G. Maguire, who has made a. record in
Congress. He is making a powerful
fight. '
He is opposed by H. T. Gage, the Re—
publican candidate.
There is a considerable element of
Populist voters in the state and these
will vote for Maguire, the Democrats
having fused with the Populists.
On the other hand the Silver Repub—
licans have a state ticket in the field
which will draw from the strength of
the Gage ticket.
In the state election the issue of sin—
gle tax, represented by Mr. Maguirc, is
one of the leading features of the con-
test. A full state ticket and a legisla—
turc is to be named.
In Colorado 8. very exciting race is
on. Charles S. Thomas, who was one
of the conspicuous leaders of the Bry-
an convention at Chicago in 896, is the
Democratic candidate. He is opposed
by H. H. Walcott, Republican.
Thomas seems to be leading, although
the fight is close.
There are, however, eleven state tick--
ets in the field, other prominent ones
being the Teller silver ticket and the
Populist ticket. A full state ticket is
to be voted for.
In Connecticut George C. Lounsbury
will be re-elected. Daniel N. Morgan
is the Democratic candidate. A legis—
lature to select a successor to General
Joseph R. Hawley is to be chosen.
There is little doubt of General Haw-
ley’s re-election.
In Idaho the silver Republicans and
the Democrats, who have a fusion
ticket in the field, will probably elect
the governor. The Republican candi-
date for governor is A. B. Moss, the
fusion candidate Frank Stennenberg.
The latter is a Democrat. The state
ticket is divided between silver Repub-
licans and Democrats. The Populist
candidate is J. H. Anderson. ‘
In Illinois a state treasurer, a super-
intendent of public instruction and
trustees of the State University are to
be voted for. There are six tickets
in the field.
In Indiana a state ticket with the
exception of governor is to be voted
for. A state legislature is to be nam~
ed to elect a successor to Senator Da-
vid Turpie, Democrat. In Iowa at full
stoic ticket, excepting governor, is to
be voted for.
A remarkably interesting contest is
being waged in “bleeding Kansas.”
overnor James W. Leedy, who during
his administration has been the means
‘of giving his state a great deal of free
advertising, is up again for re—elec—
tion. He is a Populist of the most un-
compromising variety, and heads a full
ticket of Populisi‘s which has been in-
dorsed by the Democrats.
M. E. Stanley is the Republican can-
didate for governor, and H. E. Richter
the candidate for lieutenant governor.
The Prohibitionists have a. ticket in the
field which is cutting considerable of a
figure, and it is headed by former Uni-
ted States Senator 'W. A. Peffer, fame“.
in Washington for his mighty beard.
The Socialists have a ticket in til-x
field headed by Caleb Lipscaub.
In Massachusetts Roger Wolcott will
be re-clected governor. He is the Re.-
publican candidate, and Alexander 13.
Bruce heads the Democratic ticket. .A.
state ticket is to be elected.
Governor Hazen S. Pingree is making:
the fight in Michigan as interesting a»;
it always is when hs unique personality
is involved. He heads the Republican
ticket and stands for re-election, which
he will no doubt receive.
Justin R. Whiting, a Democrat, heads
the fusion ticket, which is, made up of
Democrats, Populists and Silver Re—
publicans. The “Middle of the Road"
Populists have a ticket headed by Sul—
livan Cook. .
' An added feature of interest is furn—
ished by the fight for the control of
,the legislature, which is going on be-
'tween Senator Julius C. Burrows and
-A. B. Packer. Governor Pingree, who.
despite ridicule and opposition, has
gained a wonderfully strong hold or
the voters of Michigan, is opposin:
Senator Burrows.
In Minnesota thgre are five stall
tickets, the Republican candidate fo
governor being Henry A. Eustis am"
the fusion candidate John Lind, a sil—
ver Republican. Fusion is between
silver Republicans, Populists and Dem-
ocrats. A legislature to select a Slll'
cessor to Senator Cushman K. Davis.
a member of the American peace com
mission, is to be chosen. The outloo‘.
is favorable to Republican success.
Int Missouri 3. legislature to selec
Senator Francis M. Cockrell’s succcs
nor is to be elected. It will, no doubl-
be Dem cratic. Supreme court justice.
railroad and warehouse con'ImissioncI:
and a superintendent of public instruc—
tion are to be elected.
William Jennings Bryan’s state will
elect a full state ticket, including gov-
ernor. IndiCations point to the success
of the fusion candidate, William A.
Poynter, a Populist. The Poynter fu-
sion ticket is made up of Populists.
Silver Republicans and Democrats. The
Republican candidate for governor is
Manae L. Hayward’, and the candidate
for lieutenant governor is George A.
Murphy. A full state ticket and a leg—
islature is to be elected.
Nevada also elects a governor and a
full state ticket. George Russell is the
Democratic candidate for governor and
YV. C. Grimes for lieutenant governor.
New Hampshire also elects a gover-
nor and the fortunate man will be
Frank W. Rollins, the Republican can-
didate. Charles F. Stone is the Demo-
cratic candidate. The Prohibition and
People’s candidates are Augustus G.
Siemens and Gardiner J. Greenleaf re-
spectively.
New Jersey has a close race in Pro-
gress. Foster M. Voorhees, who only
lately resigned the governorship after
having just been elevated to it from
the lieutenant governorship. is the Re.—
publican candidate. Elvin W’. Crane is
the. Democratic candidate.
Both sides claim that they ‘will win
out.
Interest is intensified on account of
the fight being made for the control of
the legislature, which is to elect a sen-
ator to succeed Senator James Smith,
Jr.
John Kean is the only Republcan
canddate for the Senate so far.
Ohio does not elect a governor, but
votes for a state ticket from the secre—
tory of state down.
The fight in Pennsylvania is known
to all. The return of Senator Quay
to the senate and the gov‘cz'norship are
involved. The lace for governor is
three-cornered. W'illiam A. Stone is
the Republican or Quay candidate, and
George A. Jeni-:5 is the Democratic
candidate. Dr. S. C. Swallow, Prohi-
bitionist and reformer, is the candidate
of three parties on the platform “Thou
shalt not steal.”
The tremendous: enthusiasm at first
caused by his candidacy is said to have
to some extent died away. but that. it
will poll .11 large vow on election day
no one doubts. That the vigorous cam-
paign that John VFonamaker is mak~
ing against Quay will make votes fo:
Dr. Swallow is certain.
In South Carolina Vx'illiam M. ElleI-b:
will be re—elected governor. He is the
Democratic candidate and has no 0p-
position.
South Dukota will also name a gov-
ernor. Kirk C. Phillips is the Repub-,
lican and Andrew 1:]. Lee the fusion
candidate. The latter is a Populist and
the fusion is betwoen Populists. Dem—
ocrats and Silver Republicans. A full
state ticket and a legislature are to
be voted for.
Tennessee also votes for a governor.
Benton McMillin. for many years a
leading member of Congress, is the
Democratic eai'xdidnte for governor and
will be elected. nines A. Fowler is
the Republican candidate. A legisla-
ture to choose Senator Bates’s succes-
sor will be elected. Senator Bate will
no doubt succeed. himself.
Texas has a picturesque fight for
governor and state officers. Joseph I).
Sayers, for a long time one of the lead-
ing members of the Texas congres-
sional delegation; is the Democratic
candidate for governor, and J. H.
Browning for lieutenant governor. The
Middle of the Road Populists have
made :1 vigorous campaign and claim
the election of their ticket headed by
Barnet Gibbs. Gibbs has made a red
hot campaign, charging Democratic of-
ficials with nisdoing and creating
many sensations on the stump. The
Populist element in Texas is very
strong, but the Democratic ticket will
unquestionably win. The Republicans
have no ticket.
Wisconsin also elects a governor. E.
A. Scofield, the present governor, is the
Republican candidate for that position.
Hiram W. Sawyer is the Democratic
candidate, with ex-C’ongressman Peter
Y. Denster, the candidate for lieuten-
nnt governor. E. W. Chafin is the Pro-
hibition and A. H. VVorslcy the Popu-
list candidate for governor.
In Wyoming the light is between the
Republicans and the fusion forces. Dc
Forest Richards is the Republican can-
didate for governor and H. C; Alger
the fusion candidate. The fusion is be-
tween the Democrats, Populists and
Silver Republicans, as in most of the
western states where it exists. '
In the other states in which. elections
are to be held the issues involved and
the offices to be filled are of minor im-
portance. In some of them state offices
to be filled, in others legislatures to be
named and in some constitutional en-
actment is to be voted on.
Burglar Shot Down.
\Vorcester, Nov. 8.—Sunday night a
posse of citizens of North Grafton sur-
rounded a gang of burglars who had
broken into the postofiice, captured tww
and killed another. George Allen dis-
covered the burglars, and, leaving his
house through a reanwindow, alarmed
Amos G. letchell and William Cctch-
cl], constables, and other men.
They surrounded the postoffice and
found three men on the outside of the
building. Burglars and citizens opened
fire with revolvers and finally the rob-
bers fied. Yesterday morning the dead
body of one of them, apparently a
Frenchman, was found in a field near
by. Entering the building two other
burglars were seen and captured. Both
were armed.
McGrath and Day. 'the captured bur—
glars. were taken to VVestboro and held
in $10,000 each for appearance before
the superior court.

NE W INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN
()fiicers Determined to Keep the Entlre
Group. Commissioners will be Permit-

ments blade. '
Washington, Nov. 8.——Spain’s exhaus-
tive argument against the cession 01‘
the Philippines to the United States
has had the result of making the offi-
cials all themore determined to take
the islands.
Instructions sent to Mr. Day, chair-
man of the American Commissioners,
will require him and his colleagues to
renew to-day their demand for conces-
sion of the group to the United States.
and they will make in their communi—
cation the first offer of money in pay-
ment for the islands.
It is understood that the president
will consult to—day with some of his
advisers concerning the amount to be
named in the American communication
but it is said that the sum to be paid
will not under any consideration ex-
ceed the aggregate of the debts con-
tracted by the Spanish government for
improvements in the Philippines. All
military debts and debts contracted in
'the name of other islands such as Cu-l
ba, will be barred, and the Spanish
commissioners will be informed that
they must recognize this fact prompt-
ly as possible.
Secretary Hay has received a full
statement of the contents of the Span-
ish note. Its character was’just what
the officials expected—without any new
arguments of importance. Senor Rios
and his colleagues call attention to the
action -of their government in deliver—
ing a note through M. Cambon, the
French ambassador, to President Mc—
Kinley, which set forth the under-
standing of the Spanish government
that in agreeing to the protocol its sov-
ereignty over the Philippines would
not be affected.
It is also claimed by the Spanish
commissioners that this declaration
was assented to by President McKin-
ley. As a. matterG’Of fact the note had
been delivered, but the president had
declined to answer it either in writing:
or verbally to M. Cambon.
The Spanish commissioners have de-~
clared, it is said, that instead of the
United States acquiring the Philippines
this government should pay their gov--
ernment an indemnity for the attack on
Manila after the peace protocol had
been signed ,and for the damage conse—
quently done.
Rear Admiral Dewey's victory in the
bay of Manila, was unimportant and
the possession of Cav-lte during the war
was not such as to give the Americans
control of the islands, and it is claimed,
and the claim is fortified by argument
and many legal precedents, that the
American government has no moral
right to demand the cession of the en-
tire group of 1,400 islands, when it held
only such a small bit of territory as
that at Cavite and controlled only the
bay of Manila.
All during the war Spanish troops
were stationed on other islands Iand
were not molested. The Spaniards in-
dicated their willingness, however, to
sell the islands and the authorities
have no apprehension now that any
rupture will occur, unless it be over the
amount to be paid.
It is understood that after the Phil-
ippine question has been disposed of
the commissioners will consider the de-
termination of claims which have been
filed by Americans against Spain and
by Spaniards against the United
States. It was thought that this gov—
ernment would bind itself to satisfy
all American claims in consideration
of the territory ceded to the United
Stlates, but this is incorrect. The Spa—
nish commissioners have a. heavy claim
for filibustering against the United
States to offset the claims filed by Am-
ericans for personal and property inju~
ries, and the question of their disposi-
tion will have to be decided.
THE FIRE AT THE CAPITOL.
Damage Far Less Than at FirstEstimulen
IVashington; Nov. 8,—Investigation
yesterday showed that the damage to
the Capitol by the explosion and fire of
Sunday night was very much less than
at first thought. Mr. Elliot Wood, af-
ter an examination of the scene of the
explosion, said. that the foundations
.vere not disturbed and that the neces-
sary repairs could be made by the time
Congress met. The cost of the repairs
will not exceed $100,000.‘
The damage done by flames, smoke
and water was confined mainly to the
room occupied by the marshal of the
supreme court and that used by tho
clerk as a store: room for the old rec-
ords. The extent of the damage to the
records cannot be determined, but it
is sentimental l'athel‘ than substantial.
All the decisions of the court from the
beginning are in print and all the tran—
scripts of record since 1832. The proba—
bilities are that the records are only
scorched.
The law library escaped with only
damage to the binding of its volumes
which can be replaced for $1,000. No in-
jury whatevcr was done to the busts
of the chief justices which adorn the
court room.
Cremation Dim omcnts in Canada.
Montreal, Nov. S.——There is a prospect
of a crematory being erected in Cana-V
do. The directors of Cataraqui ceme-
tery, at Kingston, are discussing the.
matter, having had applications from
various persons who consider crema-
tion a much better way of disposing of
bodies of the dead than burial. The
late John H. R. Molson left $10,000 to
go towards the erection of a crematory
at Mount Royal cemetery in this city,
but nothing has yet been done in the
matter. *
