McKinley Scores a Magnificent
Victory in Ohio.
THE WHOLE TICKET ELECTED
A Seventy-live Thousand Majority
Rolled up In the Buckeye
State.
Associated Presa.
Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 7. With a plu
rality of 60,000 and two-thirds of both
branches of the legislature, McKinley
has won the most decisive victory re
corded in Ohio since the Civil War.
It has been won on national issues. It
would nod have been a surprise two
weeks ago, but after thb action of con
gress there seemed to be such a re
action that the overwhelming vote Is
a surprise. The democrats did not al
low the contest to go by default, but
. A
made a most vigorous fight with a har
monious working force. Ex-Governor
Campbell canvassed the state for Law
rence T. Neol, all of last week, and the
democratic committee was hopeful af
ter congress had reached some decisive
action. The weaUier was pleasant all
over the state and there was a full vote
of over 800,000. The decisive results of
former years have been because of
small votes, those of one party or the
other not turning out, but the voters
were out today all over the state, and
McKinley has a majority over 'all, with
the-democrathv prohibition, and popu
list tickets opposed to him. This is
the first majority over all that any
state candidate has had since the Pos
ter election just after Garfield's death
In 1881.
The republicans were apprehensive
on one part of their victory. The leg
islature elected today does not select a
United States senator, and It Is over
two-thirds republican, the strongest
since the war. With such a large work-
ng majority, they fear such legisla
tion by city members as may lead to
defeat two years hence when another
legislature Is to be selected that will
choose Senator Price's successor.
Cincinnati, No. 7.-6 p. m. The vote
ail over Ohio Is very full. Definite fig
ures are impossible In advance of the
returns. The general feeling Is that
McKinley and the other republican
state officers are elected by a highly
respectable plurality.
Columbus, Nov. 7. The precincts in
the cities that, had reported at 8:30 p.
all show republican gains that
would indicate that McKlnley's plu
rality of 21,000 two years ago would be
doubled, but the rural regions will not
show such gains. If the ratio of gains
In the cities la kept up, McKlnley's plu
rality will reach 60,000. The republi
can managers now concede nothing
less than double his former plurality.
Cincinnati, Nov. 7. One hundred pre
cincts give McKinley 13,961; Near 9,131;
populist, 254, and prohibitionists, 587.
The same in 1892 gave Harrison 13,450,
Cleveland 11,178, populists 190, and pro
hibitionist, 588. Thirty-six precincts In
Hamilton county are In, and only one
shows a democratic gain. The average
gain for McKinley in each precinct Is
32Vi. At this rate his plurality In Ham.
llton county will be over 10,000, a gain
of 6,600. '
With one twenty-eighth of the state
heard from, McKlnley's gain is 2,532.
At this rate his plurality will reach
70,000.
Cleveland, Nov. 7. The returns Indi
cate that McKinley will carry Cuya
hoga county by at least 4,000. Last
year Cleveland carried It by 4,200.
Cincinnati, Nov. 7. Three hundred
precincts give McKinley 48,032; N.eol,
33,523; populist, 8G6; prohibitionist, 1,896.
This is a republican gain of 7,727.
Columbus, Nov. 7. "To the general
manager of the Associated Press; In
dicatlons now point to a plurality for
McKinley of more than 60,000, and both
branches of the legislature by large
majorities." (Signed) Charles Irfcks.
chairman republlctn. state committee.
Columbus, Nov. 7. "To the General
Manager of the Associated Press: At
11:30, I desire to change the figures
mado earlier. We have carried Ohio
for McKinley by 75,000 plurality, and
both branches of the legislature by
more than two-thirds majority. (Signed)
Chas.. Dicks, chairman of the republl
can state committee.
(2 am.) There Is no more doubt
being-held at this .hour. The head'

ings are being held nominating McKln
ley for president In speeches by Bou-
telle, Dollver, Horr, Chairman Dick,

Chicago, Nov. 7. The democrats have

t'eaten, although he ran far ahead of

Two hundred and fifty-five precincts
and the county vote give a republican
plurality of 1505.

were hotly contested, and the republi
cans seemed to have, at a late hour
