The re turns throughout the United States at an early hour this (Wednesday) morning show Tatt ot Ohio Is elect ed president by 317 votes and 13 doubtful. There la practically no change indicated in the house of representatives. The United States senate will retain Its present Repub lican majority. Indiana has gone to Tatt by 16,000 to 18,000. Bryan ap parently carried Nebraska, although the Republicans still claim the state. Ohio -has gone to Taft by (0,000 to 76,000. Taft carried New York by about 11,000, the first time the city has given Its vote to a Republi can candidate since 1896, when Mc Klnley had a small plurality.

He relied greatly on Greater New York to offset the heavy Taft vote above Harlem river, but even In that he was bitterly disap pointed and soon realised the state hopelessly had gone, and with It his prospects ot election. According to prediction of hi managers he was led to believe he would be elected without the aid of the Empire state. He then turned to Ohio and Indiana, but in these states he received no encouragement and knew the long fight bad been won by Taft. NEW YORK, Nov. 3.
