THE MORNING OREGOfflAST, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, ISO. COLORADO FOR HIM Roosevelt Carries the State by0ver10;000. GOVERNORSHIP. IS IN DOUBT Peabody Is Running Behind His Ticket, but Republicans, Believe He Is Safe Scratched Bal lots Will Decide It. DENVER, Nov. S. Estimates at mid night from scattering and Incomplete re turns Indicate a plurality o over 10,000 for Roosevelt In Colorado. The result aa to Congressmen and state officers is in doubt, owing to the large number of scratched ballots that have not been counted. In 130 precincts outside of Den ver Peabody received 10,069 votes and Ad ams 10.C35, with 8168 scratched ballots un counted. The scratched ballots In the en tire state are estimated at o-er 40,000. Scratched ballots in Denver -which have been counted run In favor of Adams in the ratio of about two to one. On this basis the Democrats claim that Adams is elected Governor by 7000 to 8000 plurality, with a probability that the re mainder of the state ticket is also elected. Democratic Chairman Smith will not con cede that Roosevelt has carried the state, and said: "Adams plurality will be not less than 15,000." Republican Chairman Fairley said: "Colorado has gone Republican, electing by a safe majority the Electors, Congress men and the entire state ticket" At midnight the vote had been counted in only two precincts In Denver. In one of these were 93 scratched ballots, of which 63 were for Adams and In the other Ad ams had 115 out of 163. In 190 precincts out of 20 In Denver County a majority of 2320 for the entire Democratic ticket was given, .with thousands of scratched bal lots remaining to 'be counted. It is esti mated from these figures that Parker will carry Denver by 5000 and Adams by 6000 to 7000. Republicans 1n the Lead. COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo., Nov. S. Out of 65 precincts In El Paso County, 24 on straight ballots give the Republican ticket a plurality of 1656. Counting Is slower on scratched ballots. Conceded to Adams. LiEADVILXiE, Colo.. Nov. 8. It Is con ceded that Adams, Democratic candidate for Governor, will carry the county by possibly 400. The Republicans claim the county for Roosevelt Times Sure Adams Will" Win. DENVER, Nov. 8. The Times. Dem., concedes that Roosevelt carries Colorado by 5000 or 6000 plurality, and claims that Adams, Dem., will have SOW majority over Peabody for Governor. Post Says Peabody Has Won. DENVER, Colo., Nov. S. The Post, Rep., In a late extra, says that Governor Pea body is. re-elected. The Times estimates Adams' majority for Governor In Denver at 3000, and in the entire state at 7000 to 8000. Roosevelt "will have a plurality exceeding 7880. mis vote shows & .heavy increase la every precinct reported. Indications point to the election of John G. Cutler, Republican, for Governor, by a considerably smaller majority. In some districts, especially in Salt Iake County, two-thirds of the tickets -were scratched, and the result may not be known before tomorrow afternoon. The American (anti-church) party vote in this county may -reach 8000. v Twelve election district in the city and state give Roosevelt 1618; Parker 1155. These are straight ballots only. Weber County, in -which Ogflen is sit uated, will give Roosevelt 1500 plurality. The polls closed ih Utah at 7 o'clock. At Democratic state headquarters .the state is conceded to Kooseveit oy a large plurality. v ILLINOIS. Cripple Creek Republican. T1TSNVJ5R. Nov. K. Trfllv Pteott has but If precincts- of Cripple Creek there were 3842 straight Republican votes, 3424 Democratic and 1610 scratched ballots. Scott concedes Cripple Creek to the Re publicans by 500. PENNSYLVANIA. Republicans Make Nearly a Clean Sweep Knox Sure of Re-election. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 8. The Repub licans made an almost clean sweep in Pennsylvania, carrying the state for Roosevelt by pver 300,000, and electing two of the six State Senators and 29 of the 32 Congressmen. They have also elected about 175 of the 204 members of the House of Representatives. This gives them control of both branches' of the Legislature by a large majority, insur ing the election of Governor Pennypack er's appointee, P. C. Knox, for United States Senator to succeed the late M. S. Quay. N John P. Elklns, Republican, is elected State Supreme Court Judge by a majority almost as great as that cast for tee Re publican National ticket The Republicans also have carried near ly all the judicial districts In which elec tions were held for Common Pleas Judges. There were but five counties In which Associate Judges were chosen. Falling Off in Democratic Vote. PHILADELPHIA. Nov. S. The returns counted in ten wards in Philadelphia show a falling off In Parker's vote as compared with that of Bryan of 3500. -and an increase for Roosevelt over McKlnley of 10,000. Republican leaders say the vote is far ahead of their wildest expectations, and say Philadelphia will show 160,000 plurality for Roosevelt and the state "will give a Republican plurality of' at least 370,000. INDIANA. Republicans Have Almost, if JMbt Quite, Doubled 1900 Majority. INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 8. Indiana has been carried by the Republicans bv from 45,000 to 55,000. The Legislature will be Republlcan-by nearly 50. All the nlneRe publican Congressmen are elected by In creased majorities, and the Republicans claim also the Second and Twelfth Dis tricts, but they are in doubt The Republicans have almost if not quite, doubled' the McKlnley plurality In the state of 26,467 four years ago. Vice. President-elect Fairbanks received the returns at his residence from private wires, which connected his home with the "White House at "Washington. The Democratic state leaders concede the Republicans the election by 35,000. Democratic State Chairman O'Brien concedes the Legislature to 'the Repub licans, and this insures the election of two Republican Senators to. succeed Sen ators Fairbanks and, Beveridge. Information received at Republican state headquarters Indicates thai the Republicans will control the General As-f sembly by a majority of SO or 40 on Joint ballot Majority at Least 50,000. INDIANAPOLIS, Now S. At 10 o'clock Senator Beveridge, who has been watch ing the returns closely, said Roosevelt's plurality in Indiana would not be less than 60,00 and probably more, and that the Republican majority on joint ballot in the Legislature "would be 50. Chairman Goodrich, of the Republican State Committee, claims the state for Roosevelt by a plurality of 60,000. The indications were that Hanly, for Go-er-nor. will run behind Ine National ticket about 5000 votes. UTAH. flOMevelt Is Heartily Indersed and Republicans Feel Sure f Governor. SALT LAKE CITV. Nov. $. Scattered trM froat this state ladicate Ut Republican by 150,000 Deneen Is Elected Governor. CHICAGO, Nov. 8. The indications. based on the returns received, are that ue itepuDiican .national ucxet xias car rled Illinois by about 150,000. The chair man of the Republican State Central Committee asserted that Roosevelt will have a, plurality pf 200.00Q. The Demo crats declare that the figures were exag Berated, but admit that Roosevelt will have a plurality not' far from 100,000. President Roosevelt has apparently car rled Chicago by about 50,000 and Cook County by 90,000 to 100,000. Charles S. Deneen, the Republican candidate for Governor, will have about the ssme plu rality. The Republicans have probably carried the First and Eighth Congres sional Districts, hitherto Democratic Debs, the Socialist candidate for Presi dent has polled a large vote In Chicago. Estimates on the first 100 precincts indi cate a total of 45,000. Five hundred precincts out of 1252 In Chicago give Roosevelt 76,562; Parker, 36.542. Returns from the First "Ward, -which has been strongly Democratic heretofore. indicates that Roosevelt has carried it by 255. One hundred precincts In the state out side of Chicago give Roosevelt 18,336; Parker, 7025; Deneen. Rep., for Governor; 18,093; Stringer, Dem., 6892. CALIFORNIA. Roosevelt Carries State Seven Re publican Congressmen Assured. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 8. Roosevelt has carried the state by a larger majority than McKlnley did four years ago. Of the eight Congressmen to be elected, the Re publicans are assured of seven, with the Second District in doubt In this district Bell., Democrat, is running away ahead of his ticket, and giving McKlnley, Republi can, a close race. Thirty-seven precincts complete in the city give Roosevelt 8631, Parker 3779. Forty precincts out of 2245 in the state outside San Francisco give Roosevelt 6168; Parker 2SSL The same precincts gave Mc Klnley 5429, Bryan 4160.

Bryan 304L Three hundred and eighty-two precincts out of 2245 outside of Ban Francisco give Rdosevelt 31.9S6, Parker 14,633. The same precincts gave McKlnley 2S,367, Bryan 20.426. Returns from 24 completed precincts in this city give Roosevelt 5932, Parker 2556. Returns from eight complete precincts in the Fourth District give Kahn, Rep., 2019; Llvernash, Dem., 754. Returns from 15 complete precincts of the Fifth District give Hayes, Rep., 3291; "Wynn, Dem., 2145. MISSOURI. Both Sides Are Equally Positive They Have Carried the State. ST. LOUIS, Not-. 9. At 1 o'clock the re-d suits of the election In Missouri were in doubt Both sides claimed victory. The Democratic State Committee claimed the state had been carried by a majority of 35,000 and 3t Louis by 5000; that 15 Demo cratic Congressmen had been elected and the Legislature would be Democratic by a majority of 40. On the other hand. State Republican Chairman Neldrlnghaus was equally as sertive that St Louis had gone Repub lican by 20,000,-and that the state major ity would reach 000. He felt confident the final returns would show at least five Re publican Congressmen elected, also a ma jority in the Legislature on joint ballot RHODE ISLAND. Roosevelt Is Successful, but Congress- men Are in Doubt. PROVIDENCE, R. I.. Nov. 8. Indica tions at midnight were that Roosevelt had carried Rhode Island by a plurality of over 5000. The result for Governor was still In doubt with Utter, Republican, slightly In the lead. Both Congressmen are In doubt The Assembly will be practically the same as last year. Six districts in Rhode Island give for President out of 153: Roosevelt 1167, Parker 349. The same In 1900 gave Bryan 24S, McKlnley 90S. WEST VIRGINIA. Carried by Roosevelt by a Very Large Majority. "WHEELING, "W. Va.. Nov. 8. Fine weather brought out a large vote. Much scratching of the ticket In which Daw son, Rep., for Governor, was the prin cipal sufferer has made the count very slow. From ballots - now counted It Is certain that Roosevelt has carried the state by a very comfortable majority. Corhwell, Dem., is In the lead for Governor. MISSISSIPPI. Democratic Majority Reaches Unusual Proportions. JACKSON, .Miss., Nov. 8. The Demo cratic plurality. Is unusually large In Mis sissippi, having reached the total of about 50,000. All Democratic Congressmen are elected. . RESULT IS ,SOON KNOWN. " Bulletin After Bulletin Shows Large Republican Gains. NEW YORK, Nov. S. The period of. suspense that followed the closing of the polls was not prolonged. In no elec tion in recent years has the result been delnitely "known so soon. Hardly had the sun gone down when ithe re sults In New York beganto --appear. Bulletin followed bulletin, each show ing large .Republican gains , and by 7 O'clock it was evident that the great Empire State had given the Republican candidates a majority beyond the -predictions of the party managers. There was no disposition to hope against hope. As state after state sent in Its Republican majoritys and the wires told the taleo f the ballots, bring ing even from those commonwealths upon which they had based their fig ures of Democratic success, reports of unprecedented Republican majorities they frankly conceded defeat and of fered no explanation. Soon after Mr, Belmont's admission. Judge Parker ac knowledged too situation by telegraph ing President Roosevelt his congratula tions. Th? perfect weather conditions which prevailed -over practically the entire country brought out a vote which ex perienced .politicians predicted would be a record-breaker.

GOODING THE NEXT GOVERNOR Republican Plurality Is Putat'23,100 for Prsldentand About Half That Number for State Executive. BOISE. Idaho. Nov. 8. fSDeelaL'V Rs turns from the state are so Incomplete at i6v inat it is impossible to give more than rough estimates of majorities. In every part of the state Roosevelt and Gooding -ran far better than was antici pated by most observers. In this county it was expected Roosevelt would get-2000 plurality, but it seems likely at this hour the figure will reach 2800. while Goodln. for Governor, will have 1800. The entire county ticket is elected by pluralities ranging Irom 1200 to 2000. There has apparently been a clean sweep in all parts of Southern Idaho and meager returns indicate like results in the North. From all that can now be learned, the Democrats have not carried a county In the state on President. though Custer is close. A rough estimate of majorities for Roosevelt in the state by counties is herewith given. It is based on partial returns from 12 of the 2L counties, and must be understood as merely an outline of the situation: Ada j. 2,800 Bingham 1,500 Bannock 1,500 Blaine 500 Bear Lake '1.00' Bolae 200 Canyon 1.500 Cassia 5001 Custer 100 EIrnor ....... 200 Fremont 2.500 Idaho 500 Kootenai 1.500 Latah 1,500 Lemhi 500 Lincoln 500 Ne Terces 2,000 oneida l.QOO Owyhee 300 Shoshone 2.500 Washington . . . 500 Total 23.100 On the. same estimate Gooding should have from 12,000 to 13,000. In some' of the Mormon counties he is running ahead of the National ticket. NEVADA. Roosevelt Electors Win and Repub lican Elected to Congress. RENO, New, Nov. 8. Count proceeding very slowly. So far as heard from the Republican state ticket is in the lead and Yerington, Republican, Is probably elected to Congress over Vanduseb, Demo crat- The state Is conceded to Roosevelt. Norcross, Republican, for Supreme Judge, Is running ahead of his ticket. CONNECTICUT. Roosevelt and Republican Governor by Twenty Thousand. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 8. The New Haven Register, Independent, claims the state of Connecticut for Roosevelt by over 20,000, the elctlon of Roberts, Republi can, for Governor by nearly as much. and the state ticket In New Haven by 1000 to 1500. Twenty towns In the state give Roose velt 3185, Parker 1541. In 1900 McKlnley 3Zi$. Bryan 1S05. Twenty-two towns give Roberts, Repub lican, tor Governor, 4191, Robertson, Dem., 2336.
