brattle. Wah.. Nov. 6. The Re
publicans have carried the state of
Waahington by a majority that may
run as high aa 12,000, though the Indi
cations are that It will be nearer 10,-
000. The Democratic state committee
does not claim the election of any of
its state ticket, though insisting that
tbe meager i turns received justify the
committee in believing that there is a
chance for Democratic control of the
i tats leuialature. Chairman Morrison,
of the Republican committee, holds
that the Republicans will have a
Jority on Joint ballot of fully 40.
It is likely Judge Hiram K. Hadley,
nominee for Jiietice of the Supreme
court, will lead the Republican state
ticket. 1 he three congressional nomi
nees will run very close. In King
county it Is conceded Kd Cudihoe,
Pern., has been re-elected sheriff by a
majority Somewhere between 1,000 and
1,600. Indications at this time are
that Geortre U. Piper and Andrew
Heinrich, candidates for the state sen
ate, are beaten, sad the Republicans
will lone several members el tne House.
It is likely, boewver, that 20 Republi
can members of the legislature will be

COMMISSIONERS GET TO WORK.
Coal Strike Board Starts oa Its Tear of
laspsctloa of tbe Mines.
Scran ton, Pa., Oct. 31. The seven
commissioners appointed by President
Roosevelt to adjust the difference be
tween tbe anthracite mlneworker and
their employers made a tour yesterday
of the extreme npper coal fields, and
saw every step taken in the production
of coal, from the time it isblssted from
the ground, hundreds of feet below the
surface, up to the point where it is sent
to market, ready fcr the use of the con
niMt. The. A-hitrfttare hmA in inftjtr-
eating day, and returned to their hotel
at o -.30 o clock grimy from coal dust
and tired after eight busy boors of ob
servation and investigation.
Tbe trip wa a novelty L most of
those in tbe commissioners' party,
some of whom never had been in the
bard coal regions. The commissioner
displayed the greatest intereat in every
feature of coal mining, and went about
their work In a manner that wa pleas
ing to behold. Tbe mining superin
tendents accompanied tbe commission
ers. Tbe seven arbitrators had to en
dure many discomforts, make their way
through wet place in the mine,
almost crawl along tome of the gang
ways in the workings, and pass through
clouds of coal dust in the breakers.
Notwithstanding this, their eagerness
for information waa not diminished,
and tbey expect to pot in another day's
work today in this vicinity.
It would be nnfiir to say that one
commissioner displayed more interest
than another, bat it can be truly said
that Bishop Spalding asked more ques
tion than any one of the other. He
was usually in the center of a group of
commissioners, and asked many ques
tions of those who are employed in and
about the mines.
All tbe commissioners were good lis
teners, but poor talkers, when it came
down to getting an expression from
them on any feature of the mining
business. From their action today, it
is cetain they have argeed not to say
what tbey think of tbe question that
will come before them. Several per
son approached one or another of the
commissioners during the dsy, merely
for tbe purpose of having him say what
be thought ol something be saw and in
each ease the inquirer waa rebuffed.
Yesterday's tour consisted of an in
spection of No. 2 mine of the Hillside
coal company, operated by tbe Erie
company, and tbe coal breaker of the
Delaware & Hudson company. The
former is located at Forest City, 22
milea north of this city, and the break
