W ith three states yet in doubt, it is
known that the Republican national
ticket is elected by a majority of nearly
100 in the electoral college, and of
1,000,000 plurality of the popular vote.
New York,
Pennsylvania, Illinois,
Massachusetts and Ohio have rolled np
unprecedentedly tremendous majorities,
from 100,000 to 300,000. The rest is
detail, to be settled by complete re­
turns.
There are now three states in the
doubtful column--Kentucky, Wyoming
and South Dakota.
In Kentucky it
w ill require the official count to deter­
mine the result, owing to irregulari­
ties. In Wyoming, the nncretainty is
due to the slow returns. The latest re­
ports, however, indicate that Bryan
w ill get two of the three votes.
South
Dakota's vote on presidential electors
is tied, and an official connt w ill be re­
quired to determine the result. Repub­
lican managers have closed their office
with the above declaration.
The Republican candidate is now
sure of 260 electoral votes.
The other
states that were considered doubtful—
Kansas, North Carolina, Tennessee
and V irgin ia— have gone for Bryan.
His vote is 167, and with Kentucky,
Wyom ing and Sonth Dakota would be
187.

Complete returns have been received

which McKinley has 40.792 and Bryan
44,750. or a plurality of 2.042 for Mc­
Kinley. Less thau 500 votes remain

The return, show intereating features
and in »orne respect» have been a sur­
prise to the leader» of both political
parties.
The New England states
have, as was expected, given heavy
pluralities for M cKinley, without ex­
ception. The Republican ticket was
successful in
Massachusetts beyond
what was claimed for it by the most
enthusiastic prophet of Republican suc-
cesa.
New York and Pennsylvania have
given the Repnblican candidate be­
tween 376,000 and 386,000 each.
The Virginia electors w ill, without
question, be for Bryan, but they have
been elected by a heavily reduced vote.
The Republicans have given Texas np.
Illinois has given McKinley about
175.000 pluiality.
In the guberna­
torial race Altgeld has been beaten,
but is 60,000 ahead of the Democratic
national ticket.
Ohio haa given McKinley 52,438
plurality.
Returns by counties in Iowa have
been completed.
The total vote cast
in the state is in excess of 510.000
votes, estimating the Prohibition and
Palmer votes together at only 5000
O f these votes 286,751 were oast for
McKinley, "and 319,118 for Bryan.
M cKinley’s plurality, 67.633.
This
is the largest vote ever cast in the
state..
In Kentucky the situation is ma­
terially changed from early advices.
A t first the Repnblicaus claimed the
state by about 15.000, but late reiurns
show large Democratic gains, and now
the state is claimed for Bryan, but this
the Republicans w ill not concede.
California has given M cKinley a
plurality of 6,000.
Kansas has given Bryan 4,000 plu­
rality.
W ith nearly complete returns from
Michigan Pingree's plurality is esti­
mated at about 70,000 and M cKioley's

gation 12 are Republicans and 2 fa

Tennessee's 13 electoral votes w ill be
cast for Bryan, but the Republicans
may elect the governor.
Booth Carolina, Georgia. Mississippi.
Alabama and Louisiana are all for
Bryan by about the normal Democratic
majorities.
Nebraska has gone for Bryan, not­

the chairmen have been figuring on the
complexion of the next house. Chair­
man Babcock says he has complete re­
ports from 193 congressional districts,
which have elected Repnblicaus; that
there are 135 districts that have elect­
ed Democrats aud Populists, and 28
districts in which the returns are in­
complete. These may all be classed as
doubtful, he says, with the prospects
that the Repnblicans w ill seenre at
least one half of them, which would
make a total Republican membership
in the fifty-fifth congress of 207. He
claims that, under no circumstances,

below 200.
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the
Democratic committee, although he
does not concede the Repnblicans a
majority in the uext house, gives them
176, within three of a majority.
The Democrats have made gains as
follows: Delaware, 1; Illinois, 1; Mis­

The Repnblicaus have gained as fo l­

The Uemo-Popnlists have gained 1
