Washington, Nov. 7 Architect Wood today expressed tbe opinion that the damage to the capitol building could be repaired for 120,000. "It ia by no means so serious aa I first thought it was," said Mr. Wood. Mr. Wood believes the explosion was caused by gas. Other architects who have inspected the scene of the catas trophe also attribute it to an explosion of gas. Some express the opinion that a broken main and a burning jet are responsible for the occurance. The work of removing the rubbish caused by the explosion has been pro ceeding rapidly all day, 75 to 100 men being employed for this purpose. As soon as tbe refuse is sufficiently cleared out, the work of repairing the damage will begin. Mr. Wood thinks that the supreme courtroom will be ready for occupancy within two weeks. The only damage that cannot "be made good was done in the Cieroom of the supreme court in the basement. There were stored all the official records and original copies of opinions, from the foundation of the government. Compar atively few ot the papers were absolutely destroyed, but those which suffered this fate were among the most valuable in the room. They included original opinions of the court in the early days ot the republic, and among them were many manuscripts prepared in the days of Washington, Jefferson and Adams. PREPARING FOR WAR. Brltlah Cruller, to Brwtk a French Cable, When Necea.ary. St. John's N. F., Noy. 7.-The Brit ish government telegraphed the colonial minister today announcing the number and tonnage and capacity of steamers available at this port to convey coal from Sydney tor the use of BritiaU warships. The cruisers Cordelia and Pelican will be held at Sydney to capture St. Pierre and protect St. John's in the event ot war being declared. The cruisers are also instructed to break the French cable between St. Pierre and Brest, ' France. AM IMFAMOt'S PLOT. Organliatlon to Ovarthrow Civil Power Bad Aaaaolaato Cltliana. Loudon, Nov. 8. The Daily Chronicle this morning says: "We have received information from a reliable source of a well-organiaed plot In Paris, in tbe event of an Inquiry be fore tbe court of cassation proving favorable to Dreyfus, to foment a riotous outburst in tbe F rench capital, to at tempt to overthrow the civil power, and to assassinate the leading champions of Dreyfus. "These reports are confirmed by Inter views bad with M. Trarieux, former ministers of justice, and M de Presa- onso, foreign editor of tbe Temps, as well af others." Lokook, Nov. 8. The Daily Mail this morning urges the American people to pronounce boldly in favor of tetaining the Philippines, "for otherwise there will be a scramble for coaling stations that will endanger tbe peace of 'he world." CUBAN SITUATION. Cnbat Soldier not U be Abandoned by Comex. Wash tsoToii, Nov. 6. Following it an extract from a letter received by Benor Quesada from General Gomes, written October 20 : "I have full confidence in the solemn promises made by the congress of Wash ington' and for that reason I do not bare any fear as to the independence of Cuba, bomo time must elapse before our ideal will be realized; but after so many atrugglea and privations we can wait a little longer. The military occupation by the United Stales ia to a certain ex tent necessary, to prepare and harry the evacuation of tbe Spanish and bring aWul harmony among the different fac tions in Cuban politics. During this military occupation, the republican gov ernment will be organised. Its decisions will be finally accepted by all: order will retain everywhere. "Those who speak of annexation try to satisfy, above all, their spite, propa gating unfounded fears as to personal tecunty and private property. Tbe final success of our struggle has required necessary destruction of property which tbe enemy used to its advantage, but we bave never attacked individuals. "The struggle against Spain it now ended ; we commence now a more deli cate and difficult task, namely, to make oor republican political system triumph, to reconstruct the country. It is not an easy labor, and all men who loved their country abould contribute to it; for that reason, I cannot retire now, notwith standing my 61 years. Most of tbe offi cers and soldiers went into tbe field obeying my orders; I cannot abandon them until their future is assured. They have lost everything they bad, they bave a right to tome compenaation, and above all, to their salaries; the new government must secure them. Their abandonment cannot occur until the Spaniards have evacuated ; my men cannot be abandoned, without bread or work, to tbe mercy of their enemies. A solution could be found, perhaps in the plan which the American government is said to have of creating a native civil guard formed in tbe majority ot Cuban soldiers. This organization will be of great advantage in not exposing; the American troops to the deadly climate of tbe island, and at tbe same time the United States would have people who knew the country thoroughly. In the meantime, and until evacuation occurs, food must be provided for my soldiers. 'The evacuation should be as rapid as possible, and afterwards everything will be arranged, for the American govern ment will fulfill its moral pledges to us. Some people have tried to make ns sus picious, so aa to bring about trouble, but before doubt of the faith of the Ameri can people we must wait for acts which shall give the lie to their solemn pledge." Total Vote or State 70,000 Sxattlk, Wash. Nov. 8.-Today's election was the quietest in the biBtory of Washington. Reports indicate that the total vote will be about 70.00J, com pared with two years ago. Both parties claim the state, the fusionists by at leant 8000, and the republicans by 3000. The indications are that Representative Lewis, fusion, is running a little ahead of bis ticket. Returns np to midnight are very meager, but they show large republican gains. Chairman Shively, of the repub lican state central committee, said : "1 have not tha least doubt that we bave carried the state. The returns at hand are not full enough to make any estimate on pluralities." Secretary Maloney, of the fusion com mittee said ; "We bave received but few returns, but they are favorable. I see no reason to change our previous estimates of ma jorities for our ticket." Nxw Yobk, Nov. 9. Theodore Roose velt, republican, late colonel of the First United States volunteer cayalry, has been elected governor of this state by a plurality anywhere from 18,000 to 20, 000. All of Colonel Roosevelt's associates on the republican state ticket are proba bly elected with him. Enough returns from assembly dis tricts have been received to show the probable election of 80 republicans and 61 democrats, with 9 doubtful or not heard from. Conceding; all the latter to democrats, the republicans will still have a majority of 10 in the assembly, and 14 on joint ballot. A republican legislature meant tbe elect of a republican United States senator in place of Senator Murphy. BEPCBLICAM MAJORITY tSOO. A Great Beveraat of Opinion Kaateflho Moantalne. Tacom a, Nov. 9. Returns received by the Ledger from all over the state indi cate a great republican landmda. The populist counties east of the mountains bave turned completely over. The indi cation at 1 o'clock thit morning are that F. W. Cusbman and W. L. Jones, repub licans are elected to congress by at least 2500 pluality, at against about 12,000 fusion plurality for Lewie and W. C. Jonea two years ago. The legislature will be republican, and will elect a re publican senator ' to succeed Senator Wilson. Returns received up to 2:30 a. m, by tbe Ledger from Pierce, King, Whitman. Spokane and Walla Walla counties show republican gains of 6850 over their vote of two years ago. Legialature Ia Republican. StATTLt, Nov. 8. The Post-Intelligencer claima that the republican state ticket is elected by at least 2000 majority. and that the legislature will be republi can joint ballot, insuring the election of a republican United States senator. CALIFORNIA. Gage, Republican, Elected. Govoraor " Orer McGulre. San Francisco, Novr 9 The election of Gage, republican, for govornor over Maguire, fusion, is conceded, the only uncertainty being regarding the eize of his plurality, which is estimated at from 5000 to 20,000. Republican National Committeeman John D. Spreckels claims the election ot six out of the seven Cali fornia congressmen. Tbe democrats c'aim three, and perhap four. A total of 18.532 vote counted in San Francisco at 10:30 p.m., gives Gage, rep. 9540 ; Maguire. fus, 7992. Complete returns from 79 precincts in California outside of San Francisco, gave Gage, rep, 1898; Maguire, 1774. Tbe same precincts in 1896 gaue McKinley 1956, Bryan 1902. Complete returns from the 28th legis lative district give G.ige, rep, for gover nor, 155; Maguire, dem, 194. Returns from precincts in Fresno and San Diago . counties indicate that tbe Maguire vote is less than that cast for Bryan. Re turns received from scattering precincts in Stanislaus and Monterey counties, in dicate that Gage, rep, for governor, is polling a larger proportionate vote than that cast tor McKinley. At 9 :30 the republican state central committtee claimed that Gage has been elected governor by 30,000 plurality. The managing editors of the San Fran cisco morning papers expressed their views as to the outcome of the election in this stale to an Associated Press rep resentative late tonight as follows: Chronicle (republican): The republi cans willcarry the state by 20,000, and will bave a plurality of 3000 in this city. They will also elect six congressmen. Examiner (democratic) : "We con cede the election of Gage for governor." Call (republican): "Gage will be elected by a majority of 8000 to 10,000, and the republicans will seat six con gressmen.'' The managing euuor ot toe evening Post (independent) estimates Gage's ma jority at 15,000. and thinks the entire congressional ticaei nas oeen eieciea by the republicans, with the exception of perhaps Ryan in the second district, snd that tbe legislature will be republi can. .. At fusion headquarters at midnight, it was conceded that Gage had) won the . fight for the governorship. Statb of Ohio, City or Toledo,) as. Lucas uounty. ) Frank J.
