But Republicans Will Be Able to Or. tranlxe the XiOTrcr -JGtouse of J the Xeslslatnre. BALTIMORE. Nor. 6. Returns received In thte city up to mlfinlght,,and',includ-1 ing every county an tne sifiie, paniyuuj dal and partly estimated, indicate ti "re sult In the Legislative contest -which Is almost Trithaut parallel In Maryland. Tne most careful estimates and calculations give the Democrats 46 Delegates and seven newly-elected Senators, which, combined with the 10 -who hold over In tne Senate, assures the friends of Mr. Gorman a total of 63 on Joint "ballot The Republicans, appears, have elected 49 Delegates and six Senators, -which, added to their three hold-over Senators, gives theci a total of ES on Joint ballot These figures indicate that the Republicans will be able to organize the House of Delegates. The situation in Baltimore City is a pe culiar one, in that the returns from the Second Legislative district are In such an Incomplete state as to make the result there uncertain as to two Legislative can didates. The election Judges In two pre cincts became involved last night in a controversy over the rejection df several ballots, and finally locked the ballots and the poll books In the ballot box and turned them over to the supervisors of election, with the statement that they declined to sign the returns. One of the Democratic candidates lacks but 97 votes of election and another needs but 103. The Republi cans seem inclined to concede the election of the first mentioned when the returns are In from the two missing precincts, but assert that the other will be beaten. In the table of members, therefore, but one Democrat In Baltimore City is put down as probably .elected, while the Re publipans are given 16. The ballots will not be counted until noon tomorrow, until which time nothing definite can be known. One of the surprises of the day was the close vote in Allegheny County, heretofore safely Republican by majorities "ranging from 1S to "200Q. The Democrats' have elected tnelr Senator and one Representa tive In that county and the result as to the remaining four Delegates is close. Allegheny County Js the home of Senator Wellington. St Mary's County, which has been considered doubtful, has gone eolidly Democratic, and Washington Wil kinson, one of the picturesque figures In the Republican side in the Senate, is rele gated to private life. Complete returns from the CUy of Balti more, giving Hering, Dem, for Con troller, 37.626; Piatt, Repj 40,353. The Re publican also elected their entire city ticket with the exception of Davis for Sheriff, who appears to be beaten by 600 majority. The first experience of a general election under the new law has not proved satis factory. Not for many years has tbere been so great delay In arriving at the result in tho city as there was last night. Under ordinary conditions the entire vote has been counted and announced by 1 o'clock, but at that hour last night less than 3& prcclqct, not one-half of the city, hM Wen counted, and from the counties not over a dozen election districts had been heard from. THE 'HESUIT IN OHIO. " Itepnhlicna Plurality Beats All "OH ' Year" Records. COLUMBUS, O., Nov. fi. With almost complete returns In tonight It Is noted that the Republican plurality beats all zecords in what has become known as the "off-year," and, with two exceptions, the records of other years. In tho "off 3 ears," or those following a Presidential clfcon, the Democrats have carried Ohio, the exceptions being In 1S$1, after the death of Garfield, and in 1S$5 and JfcSS, after the Cleveland election. In two of these three exceptional years the Pres ident was a Democrat, arid those were considered "off-years" for the Democrats, With the single exception of Hoadley, In 1883, the Democrats never elected a Gov ernor of Ohio in any other than "off jeirs' n!nce the Republican party was organised, and then they won on a local issue of liquor taxation. Wherever local Ihsuc3 were paramount. thia year, the Republicans sustained losses, notably at Columbus, on account of local option, and at Cleveland, on ac count of Mayor Johnson's agitation of '"taxation inequalities." Where no such conditions Rcro confronted, the Repub licans made gains. They carried some Democratic counties that never before were represented by Republicans. The state was carried on National Issues in volved in the support of President Roose velt and the endorsement of Senator For aker for re-election. In interviews, Sen ator Hnnna. Governor Nash and Chair man Dick, on the Republican side, and Colonel Kllbourne, Chairman Daugherty and Secretary Gilliam, on the Democrat ic side, agree that the result was due to the trend of sentiment In National affairs. None of these six leaders or others in in terviews on the result refer to the silver question as a factor In the contest Chairman Daugherty added, with empha sis. "I believe the Republican success Is due to the assassination of McXinley and the prevailing prosperity." Secretary Gilliam said: "The sympathy aroused by McKInley's death, Just be fore the election, removed4 that antago nism which always exists against the Administration. Undoubtedly we wefe, greatly handicapped by our Inability to go on the etump and criticise the policies of the Administration." JUate tonight. Chairman Dick, of the Republican state committee, had the re turns from 86 counties In Ohio, with only two missing, and tho .two missing coun ties wore estimated from the newspaper reports, with the following results: sixty-two" counties have, Republican pluralities aggregating WJ4ttI' Twenty-six counties have Democratic pluralities ag gregating 23,173, making the' plurality of Nash over Kllbourne for Governor 67,661, and approximating SO.tXJO plurality for oth er candidates on tho Republican state ticket The total vote will not exceed 50,XX The Republicans elected 68 Rep resentatives and the Democrats 42. -The State Senate stands, 21 Jlepuhllcans nd. 13 Democrats.

House Ventilation in Bombay. Collier's Magazine. Moat of the new houses In Bombay hfcve a fine showing of windows on the outside, but no cbrrcspondlng opening to allow a current of air to pass through. The mean annual temperature 13 79.13 de grees Fahrenheit, and the mem relative humidity 77 per cent. The mean annual rangtv of temperature is 46,9 degrees, but there are periods during the rains when the diurnal range of temperature does fnoj exceed 2 degrees, and unless thcroMs w'nd, ventilation Is practically stopped because the outer air and thit In the buildings are reduced tb nearly one tem perature. "With the thermometer at 52 to 5 degrees, and the air heavily charged with moisture, the surplus heat of the human body escapes too slowly, and .much discomfort ensues. As It Is not possible to dry thq air In an ordinary house, the usual remedy Is to produce a current by means of a punkah, and although, the In fluence of this is very local, lt has been found that In the frorst Bombay weather life s made tolerable In Its uurrent. The chief drawback of the punkah is the punkahwalla. He is dirty, unreliable, es pecially at night, and his work, counting day and night, costs 24 rupees per month for a single punkah.

Mr. Raynor then took up specification No. 10, concerning the Hodg son controversy. He said he would not undertake the task of extricating Lieutenant-Commander Hodgson from his pre dicament. He read portions .of Hodgson's testimony, and again fell back unon Can- ( tain Cook's testimony- as decisive. Cap- win v.tsjaa sa.q, $ir; iiaynoc saidg that Ujo dapgdnof collision had'nevercntered his head. Referring to this testimony, he said: "You cannot Impeach him. If I had my way, I must say I think I would have rested this case whoa Captain Cook's tes timony was done. I did not do so because the Admiral wanted to take the stand In his own vindication." i No one, he said, had Intended to attack Hodgson but the entire controversy was Hodgson's own fault. "There has bscn too much magazine dls cusslpn and too much gossip," he .said. Imagine such a conversation between the commanding officer of a great fleet and a subordinate officer at such a time. Even if Commodore Schley had said 'Damn the Texas,' It would cot havfc been such a scrlbus matter, as It could not have lieen meant seriously. Down in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, they use such lan guage In salutation, savins. 'Damn vou. t how are you this morhlng?' " out the trouble was, he said, that the public did not have the proper conception of the occurrence as reported, and had gathered the Idea that the Brooklyn was running away from the scene of conflict Admiral Schley had denied 'the reported colloquy, Ve feald, but not Until after It had done him grealt Injury. Mr. Raynor then took up the first speci fication, Admiral Schley's condtfet during the campplgn. The Scared 3rr. Ports'. "Now we como to Mr. tVood and Mr. Potts'," ho said; "Mr. PQtts and Mr. "Woods." (Laughter lp the court.) After reading the testimony of several officers as to the splendid bearing of Ad miral Schley, Mr. Raynor read he testi mony of Mr. Potts to tbe effect that "he got up and sat down." Mr. Raynor pro ceeded to ridicule Mr. Potts as "that pre cocious child of the kindergarten, who confessod that he was always scared when hq was In battle, but who. unfortu nately, was never engaged In any battle sufficient enough even to arouse his tim idity." At this point Captain Lemly protested against Mr. Raynors strictures of Lieutenant-Commander P0tt3- "Coudsel is traducing the reputation of an Officer of ability and high standing," said Captain Lemly. Mr. Raynor You have no right to tra duce tho reputation of Admiral Schley. Captain LemlyI do not think that counsel should say this is an attempt to traduce Admiral Schley. I am not Tiore because I wanted to be, but because It Is my duty. I was ordered to come I think lt Is unjuet and shows how unre liable he is in his statements. Mr. Raynor I do not think the court will permit this. You must not make a statement of that sort. I will not per mit It. Admiral Dewey No. Mr. Raynor He Is not only unreliable, but very offensive. Captain Lemly Counsel gets up and saya that we are, in the discharge of a most painful duty, trying to "traduce Ad miral Schley.- Mr. Raynor I have borne willing testi mony to the Impartiality with which he has tried his case and the delicate pqsj tlqn he occupies. But I do ask my brother not to get up and contradict me, and say that I am unreliable when I read the testimony that sustains me. I appreciate the posjtion he is in. He has filled tha.t1 pTosltJon as well and faithfully -as it could possibly be filled "by any one. I have not said a word in criticism of his conduct. It 13 only when he refers to my traduc ing an officer that I have the same right to refer to his traducing Admiral Schley. Admiral Dewey The court, of course will read all thq testimony that has been given. "We shall be governed by the tes timony. AVe know exactly what Lieutenant-Commander Potts said. He said he was scared, but counsel did enlarge a little on it. Mr. Rnynor's Peroration. The difficulty was then smoothed ovpr. Mr. Raynor took up tbe other specifica tions and reviewed tho testimony of the various witnesses against Schley. Mr. Raynor closed as follows: "I havo now briefly presented thla case as it appears tc me in Its genoral outline. Such a trial as this has never, to my knowledge, taken place In the histqry of the world. It seemed to my mind that this case had hardly opened with tho testi mony of Captain Hlgglnson when it com menced to "totter, and from day to day its visionary fabric disappeared from .view. "When Captain Cook, their last wit ness, was pU on tho stand, the entire structure collapsed, and It was when the witnesses from our own ships and the gal lant Captain and crew of the Oregon and Admiral Sehley had narrated their urivar nlshed tale that the whole tenement, with all of Its compartments, from its founda tion to Itg turret, has disintegrated and lies hero like a mass of blackened rultw. "It has ta&on three years to reveal the truth. There is not a single word that has fallen from the tonguo of ,a stnglo wit ness, friend or foe. that casts the shadow of a reflection upon tho honored name of the hero of Santiago. He has never claimed the victory of that day. No word to this effect has ever gone forth from him to the American people. The valiant Cook, the heroic Clark, the lamented PhlUp, the Intrepid and undaunted Walnwrlght, and all the other Cgptaifla, atd every man at every gun and every soul on board of every ship are equal participants, with Admiral Schlqy In the honor wrought upon that Immortal day. Wo cannot string down his figure stand ing upon the bridge of the Brooklyn. There he stands upon tho bridge of the Brooklyn. hH ship almost alonei and re ceiving tho entire fire until the Oregon, as if on winss of lightning, sped on to the thlckrtes of tho mortal carnage, "God blass the Oregon" was the ch?er that rang from deck to deck, antj on they went, twin brothers in the chase, until the lee gun was fired from the Cristobal Colon and the despotic color of Spain were swept from the face of her ancient possessions. 'Well done; congratulate you on the victory,' was the streamer that was bent from the halyard ot the Brook lyn, and from that day to this no man has ever5 heard fropi Admiral Schley thn slightest whisper or Intimation that he Usurped the glory of that imperishable hour. The thunders of the Brooklyn, as she trembled on the waves, hnve boon discordant music to the cars of envious foes, but they have pierced, with a ring ing melody, the ears of his countrymen and struck a responsive chord at the fire side of every American home. And what is moro than all which has been revealed in this case, as matchless as is his cour age and as urtsullied rts is his honor, is his beautiful character and the generous spirit that animates his soul and the forglvlrtg heart that beats within hl3. bosom. Yes, wo cannot Strike him down. Erect ho stands as the McGregor when he stepped on his native heather and his eye was on the peak Ben LorAond. His, country docs not want to strike him down nor cast a blur on the pure escutcheon of his honored name. "For three long years he has suffered, and now, thank God, tho hour of his vindication has come. With composure, with resignation, with supreme and un faltering fortitude, ho awaits the Judg ment of this Illustrious tribunal and when the deliverance comes he can, from the thigh and exalted position that he occu-; pics. look down upon his traducen- nna uiallgners and with exultant pride ex claim: 'I care not for the Venomous gos sip of clubs and drawing-rooms and cliques and cabals and the poisoned shafts of ehvy and malice.
