committee, telegraphed Sir. Apsley, the
vice-chain mi of tln committee, ut
Boston, h. i. lows :
"The re! in from the congressional
districts uro y' incomplete. We have
curried 21 districts in New York, three
in West Virginia, three In Connecticut,
three in Kentucky, defeated tlio free
trader, Johnson, in (Ihio, uiul Wilson, in
West Virginia, and I could estimate that
wo will control . the next house by a
much larger mnjority tliun the com
mittee Iimh predicted. We have uls
carricii Wisconsin by not lei's tl;
25,000 majority, and with eight members
of congress. The reports received up to
date indicate uniform republican guins.
I estimuto tliat wo will control the next
hotiNc by 25 majority. My returns tliun
fur have lieou very meaner, but ull the
indication point to a larger represeiitu
tion. I figured on only 211 meinliers in
New York, but nliall have "I at leant.
My estimute included one republican
friiui Kentucky. It now looks an if we
would have three from that Htulo. I
claimed two republican members in
Connecticut. A diHpatch from Mr. Hen
ton, the clii'irinaii of the state central
couimittee, tolls me that the republicans
have curried all four of the Connecticut
diHtriclH. 1 am usmired that we have
elected 13 congressmen in Massachusetts,
where tliecoininittee'B greatest claim was
11. In Ohio wo have exceeded our es

In Wisconsin I estimated the election of

and $) in coin. Senator Harris did not
lock the door to his room. When lie

and money missing. A stranger, who
occupied a room above the senator's, is
suspected. The stranger loft during the
night without paying his bill.
The New Chine Loan.
Luniion, Nov. 6. Tho new Chinese

of which Colonel William M. Kingerly,
the democratic candidate for governor,
is the proprietor, Kays :
"1'eniiHylvaiiia is a republican state,
but the energy of Its republicans venter
day was something magnificent. F.vi
dently the voters have carried to the
account of the democracy nil of the ill
fortune that has befallen the country as
the ctilminution of republican misrule,
and wo suspect there may be hidden
under the pile of adverse majorities an
A. I'. A. reminder, lie is a poor soldier,
however, who complains of war, and
those only who know how to accept de
feat with composure are capable of mod

In l'cnnsylvuiiiu the election yesterday
wiih a farce. The fraudulent registry

Washington, Nov. 7. The loss of
Kansas, New Jersey and South Carolina
reduces the present democratic total in
the senate from )! to 41. The present
republican strength in tho senate f 38
promises to bo increased by senators
from New Jersey, Kansas, Montana,
Washington and Wyoming, the last three
being vacancies. The republicans are
likely to lose Nebraska. This makes a
gain of five and a loss of one, or a net
gain of four, raising the republican total
to 42. The populists now have three
senators. The returns indicate for them
in South Curolina and Nebraska, making
their total five. Senators Jones and
Stewart, of Nevada, have of luteatliliuted
with the populists, so the populist
strength may be increased and the re
publicans decreased by two. An esti
mate of the next senate by Chairman
Ilabcock gives the republicans 44 out of
88 senators. He counts upon PefTer's co
operation to organize.
The Next Heuute.
W amiington', Nov. 7. Chairman llab
coi k, of the republican congressional
committee, claims the republicans will
organize the next 1'nited States senate.
II is information is that the Tennessee
legislature will send a republican to suc
ceed Harris. Ilabcock also had a dis
patch Btating, Denny, republican, in the
seventh Kentucky district, is elected by
25. This is Ashland district, formerly
represented by Breckinridge.
A dispatch from Chairman Ilolman, of
the South Carolina state committee, and
Congressman Settle says: "We have
carried the state if we can hold it."
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the
democratic congressional committee,
concedes the house to the republicans by
(Mi to 70 plurality. The senate will not
be republican, he Bays, unless that parly
curries Tennessee, w hich is still uncer
tain, or unless Senator Teller votes with
the republicans.
Nkw Yoiik, Nov. 7. Ileturns indicate
the republicans w ill gain a United States
senutor in each of the following states:
Montana, Washington, Wyoming, Kan
sas, New Jersey and West Virginia.
The ext lloune.
Washington, Nov. 7. The republican
congressional committee has given out
an estimate claiming that in the 54th
congress the republicans will have a
majority of the delegations of 30 states,
tho democrats 12, and the populists 1,
with Maryland divided evenly, giving
the republicans more than a two-thirds
majority by states should the next presi
dential election be thrown into the
house.
The figure Still .rowing.
Nkw Yoiik, Nov. 7. A survey of the
returns this morning confirms the hasty
estimates and partial returns of last night
in the West, Northwest and of the
I'ueitic coast. The republican landslide
is overw helming, and republican gains
in the Southwest are of such magnitude
as to suggest almost a revolution. Ohio
has given the largest republican majority
in its history. It is thought the official
returns will show a plurality of 140,000
to 130,000. Wisconsin has elected a re
publican state ticket and nine out of ten
congressmen. In Illinois the democrats
are crushingly defeated, tne state going
republican by from 40,000 to 50,000
plurality. The congressional election is
almost solidly republican. Indiana is
republican by from 20,000 to 25,000
plurality.
Admiral Oherardl Ketired.
Washington, Nov. 7. Secretary Her
bert has issued a formal order retiring
Admiral Gherardi, senior admiral of the
navy, and commandant at the navy-
yard, on the 10th inst. The following
details are also made: Superintendent
of naval academy, Captain Philip
Cooper, now in command of the United
States ship San Francisco. Cooper is
one of the youngest captains. The sec
retary expects to detail Admiral Walker
to the lighthouse board to succeed Ad-
niral Greer, who will shortly retire.
Commodore L. H. Pythian has been
detailed ub superintendent of the naval
observatory, to relieve Captain McNair.
Captain McNair to be on tho examining
and retiring board. Captain Allan V.

yard. Captain II. M. Shepard to com

Sax Francinco, Nov. 7. Returns re
i coived in this city up to 8 a. m. do not
materially change figures sent out at 3
I o'clock. P.udil, democrat, for governor,
! still lends by nearly 7.000 votes in San
Francisco. Chairman Gould, of the
democratic state central committee, es
timates his plurality w ill fie over 12,000,
which will be snllicient to elect him.

I F.9t , rep., in the interior than was ex
j pected. Republican managers concede
the city to liudd, but are. hopeful that
the country vote will be large enough to
overcome Budd's plurality. Budd's as
sociates in the state fight appear to have
been sacrificed in his interests. In this
city they are behind the head of the
ticket, and the interior returns indicate
a similar condiiion. It is apparent that
th republicans have elected six or seven
congresenien, Magnire in the fourth dis
trict being the only democrat w ho will
represent California in the next con
gress. He leads his republican oppo
nent, Shannon, by about 4,000 votes.
Returns indicate that the next legisla
ture will be republican by a big major
ity. At 11 o'clock this morning Chairman
Cornwall, cf the republican state central
committee, was seen at headquarters,
and when asked to give an opinion as to
the outlook in the state, said that the
returns were coming in so Blowly and
were so conflicting that it would be im
possible to give anything like a definite
statement until tonight or tomorrow
morning. The count in this city had
reached such a stage, however, that the
indication favored the election of Budd,
deui., for governor. Mr. Cornwall was
of the opinion that the remainder of the
democratic state ticket would be defeat
ed. He said the legislature would ba
certainly republican, thus insuring the
return of a republican successor to Sena
tor Perkins. The republican chairman
was also equally certain of the election
of six out of seven congressmen in the
state. He said that the principal fight
had been made on the election of the
republican candidate for congress, and
he considered altogether that the state
had done its duty to the republicans.
Half of the city vote counted by noon
gives Budd 6,500 plurality. Temple,
dem., and Henshaw, rep., for supreme
justices, are several thousand ahead in
this city.
Seventy-three complete precincts in
the first congressional district give
Barman, rep. 350f, Geary dem. 3219,
Grigsby pop. district give Johnson rep.
4GS0, Cuminetti dem. 3440, Cornell
pop. 2312.
The populists claim the A. P. A. move
ment put them in bud shape. Around
headquarter talk is going on that Web
ster will get 10,000 votes in this city, but
if the A. P. A. had not put in an oar it
would be twice as much. The populists
concede that the next legislature will be
republican.
In the mayoralty count in this city,
Sutro pop., is forging ahead, and it is es
timated he will have a plurality of be
tween 10,000 and 15,000.
Kighty-three complete precincts in a
total of 242 in the third congressional
district, give llilborn rep. 4029, Fnglish
dem. 3900, Vance pop. 2056.
One hundred and twelve complete pre
cincts in a total of 292 in the sixt h con
gressional district, gave McLacklan rep.

One hundred and seven complete pre

New Youk, Nov. 8. The Sun says
President Samuel Gompers, of the
American Federation of Labor, sent the
following telegram to President Cleve
land yesterday.
"Without much concert of effort by
organized labor, the people have meas
ured at the polls your assumption of the
unconstitutional and unwarrantable use
of the military power to crush labor.
Though th changes may benefit us
little, the rebuke will nevertheless be
appreciated and remembered."

Ixn isvii.le, Ky., Nov. H. In today's
Courier-Journal, under the head, "Have
We a Democratic party?" Mr. Watter
son says :
"Never did a great party go to the
people under such handicaps as were
carried by the democrats into the cam
paign just ended. Tho hard times were
bad enough, bat they might have been
parried. Faction fights among small
claimants and rival place men were bad
enough, but parties have met and over
come such obstacles before now ; but
with the record of perfidy and dishonor,
as Cleveland aptly described it, to face
and defend in a hand-to-hand fight with
the united republicans, led by Harrison,
McKinley and Reed, it was dishearten
ing for the democrats to have to face
also the dull pelf-sufficiency and stolid
indifference of an administration that
made no sign, uttered no word, and at
least in the state of New York, seemed
to desire to defeat the regular democratic
nominees. The battle for tariff reform
will have to go down to tho foot and
take a new start. The battle over the
monev issue w ill soon be upon us. We
shall eee if there is democracy enough
left of the true-blue stripe to make a
greatcoat good against all weather, or
whether we must still wear a coat of
many colors, covering not a homogenous
party inspired by faith and trust, but a
mere bundle of factions thrown together
by the upheaval of the times."
Ambaenador Bayard Hays It Wan De
lay In I'aRHlug; a Tariff Kill.
Baltimore, Nov. 8, Ambassador
Thomas F. Bayard said today: "I had
great apprehensions as to the result of
the recent elections for some time. I
don't want to run afoul of these gentle
men responsible for the delay in passing
the tariff bill, but the patriot's duty is
unmistakeable. The necessity for pure
democratic tariff legislation was never so
great as it is now. Bills for free raw
material should be passed immediately
and then the country would be able to
contemplate the democratic idea of the
tariff in full working order for two years
before the national election rolls around.
If this is done I have little fear tiie ver
dict will be unsatisfactory in 1S9G."
Ambassador Bayard sails for England
next Saturday.
The Turin Illumed.
London, Nov. 8. The Pall Mall Ga
zette, commenting on the election in
the United States says: "The failure
of the democrats is due to the action of
the senate on the tariff question, "but,"
the Gazettu adds, "the country has been
carried away by its general and indis
criminating indignation."
A New York Ifstilliate.
New York, Nov. 8. Latest returns
show that the next house will stand 234
republicans, 117 democrats, 5 populists.
The republicans w ill have a majority of
112. At present the democratic majority
is 84. Fivery prominent democrat in an
Eastern state has been defeated. The
Solid South is broken. West Virginia
elects four republican congressmen;
Maryland, Kentucky, Virginia, North
Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri, I'ela
ware, and even Texas, elected one to
seven republican congressmen. Michi
gan, Iowa, Indiana, Connecticut, New
Jersey and Kansas send solid republican
delegations to congress. Morton's ma
jority in New York w ill be over 150,000.
The populists were beaten in all their
strongholds, with the exception of Ne
vada. The republicans recaptured Kan
sas by a large majority. Waite, popu
list, of Colorado, for governor met with
a crushing defeat. The Montana re
publicans have a majority of the legisla
ture, which insures the election of two
United States senators. New Jersey
will have a republican legislature, and a
democratic United States senator will
be succeeded by a republican. In IUi-

Republicans Won, But Are Afraid of
Lofting Their Victory.
Washington, Nov. 8. Chairman
Babcock, of the republican congressional
committee, received the following letter
today from A. E. Holtou, chairman of
the republican state committee of North
Carolina:
"We won a complete victory at the
polls here yesterpay. We elected the
judicial ticket by estimated majorities
of over 40,000, and have both branches
of the legislature, with four republican
and three populist congressmen. A
fight will have to be made tomorrow be
fore the county canvassing board. It
will be necessary for us to employ coun
sel to appear before the canvassing
boards in many counties. The demo
crats say they have given up the state,
but our best information is that they
will appear before the boards tomorrow
prepare ! to do all in their power."
Chairman Babcock bus instructed
Holton to employ all the counsel neces
sary to protect the republicans rights.
Chairman Babcock now estimates
that there will be 255 republicans in the
next house.

Brooklyn is concerned, Iikh been lost by
about 100 votes. Counselor Shanks,

matter will have to go to tho legislature
in any event.
I'lunty of Contests.
Washington, Nov. 8. The indications
are the 54th congress will open with
numerous contests for seats in tho house

change either of mind or conditions
there will be at least three contests in

in North Carolina and Tennessee, with
a possibility of contests in Alabama,
Kentucky and Arkansas.
