There are now three states in the
doubtful column— Kentucky, Wyoming
and South Dakota. In Keutuoky it
w ill require the official count to deter­
mine the result, owing to irregulari­
ties. In Wyoming, the uncretainty is
due to the slow returns. The latest re­
ports, however, indicate that Bryan
w ill get two of tho three votes.
South
Dakota's vote on presidential electors
is tied, and an official count w ill be re­
quired to determine the result. Repub­
lican managers have closed their office
with tbe above declaration.
Tbe Republican candidate is now
sure of 260 electoral votes.
The othei
states that were considered doubtful—
Kansas, North Carolina, Tennessee

The president has issued the follow ­
ing Thanksgiving proclamation;
“ By the President of the United
States:
“ The people of the United States
should never be unmindful of the grati­
tude they owe to tbe God of nations
for his watchful care, which has
shielded them from disaster and point­
ed ont to them the way of poaoe and
happiness. Nor should they ever re­
fuse to acknowledge with oontrite
hearts their proneness to turn away
from God’s teachings and to follow
with sinful pride after their own de­
vious.
“ To the end that these thoughts
may be quickened, it is fitting that, on
• day especially appointed, we should
join together in approaching the throne
of grace with praise and aupplioation.
“ Therefore, I, Grover Cleveland,
president of the United States, do here­
by designate and set apart Thursday,
the 26th day of the present month of
November, to be kept and observed as
a day of thanksgiving and prayer
throughout our laud. On that day let
all onr people forego their usual work
and occupations and assemble in their
acoustomed places of worship; let them
with one aooord render thanks to the
Ruler of the Universe for onr preserva­
tion as a nation, and our deliverance
from every threatened danger; for the
peace that haa dwelt within our boun­
daries; for onr defense against disease
and peatilenoe during (he year that has
passed; for the plenteons rewards that
have followed the labors of our hus­
bandmen; and for all the other bless­
ings that have been vouchsafed to us.
“ And let ua, through the mediation
of Him who has taught ua how to pray,
implore tbe forgiveness of our ains and
a continuance of heavenly favor.
“ Let us not forget on this day of
thanksgiving the needy, and by deeds
of charity let our offering! of praise be
made more acceptable in the tight of
the Lord.
“ Witness my hand and the seal of
tbe United States which I have »u sed
to be hereto affixed.
“ Done at the City of Washington,
this 6th day of November, in the year
of our Lord, 1896, and of the independ­
ence ef the United States of Amerim,

The returns show interesting features
and in some respects have been a sur­
prise to the leaders of both political
parties.
The New England slates
have, as was expected, given heavy
pluralities for McKinley, without ex­
ception. The Republican ticket was
successful in Massachusetts beyond
what was olaimed for it by the most
enthusiastic prophet of Republican suc­
cess.
New York and Pennsylvania have
given tbe Republican candidate be­
tween 276,000 and 285,000 each.
Tbe Virginia eleotors will, withont
question, be for Bryan, but they have
been eleoted by a heavily reduoed vote.
The Republicans have given Texas np.
Illinois has given McKinley about
175.000 plurality.
In the guberna­
torial raoe Altgeld baa been beaten,
but ia 60,000 ahead of the Democratic
national ticket.
Ohio haa given MoKinley 62,488
plurality.
Returns by counties in Iowa have
been completed.
The total vote cast
in the state ia in exoe.*« of 610,000
votes, estimating the Prohibition aud
Palmer votes together at only 6000.
Of these votes 286,761 were oast for
McKinley, and 219,118 for Bryan.
M cKinley’s plurality, 67,633.
Thia
la the largest vote ever cast in the
state..
In Kentucky the situation is ma­
terially changed from early advices.
A t first tbe Republicans olaimed the
state by about 15,000, but late returns
ahow large Democratic gains, and now
the state is olaimed for Bryan, but this
the Republicans w ill not concede.
California has given McKinley a
plurality of 6,000.
Kansas has given Bryan 4,000 plu­
rality.
W ith nearly complete returns from
Michigan Piugree's plurality is esti­
mated at about 70,000 aud McKinley's
16.000 leas. Of the congressional dele­
gation 12 are Republicans and 2 fu-
aionista.
Tennessee's 12 electoral votes w ill be
» s t for Bryan, but tho Republi»us
may elect the governor.
South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi,
Alabama and Louisiana are all for
Bryan by about the normal Democratic
majorities.
Nebraska has gone for Bryan, not­

c o m p le x io n o f th e n e x t bouse.
C h a ir -
man Babcock aays be has complete re­
ports from 193 oongresaional districts,
which have eleoted Republicans; that
there are 185 districts that have elect­
ed Democrats and Populists, and 28
districts iu which the returns are in­
complete. These may all be olasaed as
doubtful, he says, with tbe prospects
that the Republicans w ill secure at
least one half of them, which would
make a total Republican membership
in the fifty-fifth congress of 207. He
claims that, under uo circumstances,
w ill the Republican membership fall
below 200.
Henatur Faulkner, chairman of the
Demociatio committee, although he
does not oonoede the Republicans a
majority in the next bouse, gives them
176, within three of a majority.
Tbe Democrats have made gain* as
follows: Delaware, I; Illinois, 1; Mis­
souri, 4; New York, 1; total, 11.
The Republicans have gained as fol­
lows: Maryland, 8.
The Demo-Populists have gained 1
iu Colorado aud 1 iu Missouri.
Washington.— From returns thus far
reoeived, the next senate w ill probably
stand as follows:
Republicans, 44.
Democrats, 82.
Independents and Populists, It.
Doubtful, 2.
On the currency question, the senate
undoubtedly w ill have au anti-silver
majority.
Repaid ¡» n s who bolted the fit Louis
ticket and platform are classed as inde­
pendent*. They are: Teller, Dubois,
Mautle, Cannon.
Another Utah senator to be elected
to succeed Brown w ill undot-dtedly be

Re­
Expected.
Washington, Nov. 10. — It has al­
ways been bold that China was a good
field for American enterprise and
American money.
Americans who
seek to engage in business enterprises in
China or Japan find tbemaelves handi­
capped by the faot that all their busi­
ness iu Iht way of money must be done
through English
banking houses.
English money finds as good invest­
ment in China as it does elsewhere.
English capitalists have their invest­
ments iu tbe East oovored by tbe ex-
obango
through
English banking
honsea. By the ssme token Americans
find it much more difficult to secure a
foothold in the Eastern countries for
their manufactures and wares, although
sold ns cheaply as those manufactured
iu England.
W hile it does not appear that there
haa been any change in the matter of
American banking buaineaa, it ia a
fact there is a change in the matter of
enterprise iu China. The son of min­
ister Denby has noted several instances
of late showing that Amoricans are be­
ginning to see that there is a future
for them iu the matter of Chinese
trade and Chinese investment. This
has been especially noticeable in the
matter of ship and railroad building.
Upon thia line he sayai
“ Among these, the American Trad­
ing Company, of New York, London,
Yokohama and Shanghai, haa been tbe
longest iu the field. In addition to its
usual business of exporting and im ­
porting, this company has recently be­
come the agent of the Cramp Ship­
building Company and of the Union
iron works.
It also represents an
American railroad syndicate, and has
submitted bids for the building of a
railroad from Sooohow to Chiukiang,
anil for the building of an eleotrio
tramway iu the foreign concessions at
Shanghai.
These bids have not as
yet been accepted.
Dnring the past
winter this company was also agent
for an Amerioau banking ayndioate,
and entered into negotiations for
a loan to China.
It is thia same
company that haa secured a conces­
sion for a railroad from Chemulpo to
Sjcul, in Cere*, end that hao ncld two
ships on behall of the Cramp com­
pany to the Japaneie government.
“ Mr. A. W. Bash, of Port Town­
send, Wash., is the representative at
Peking of a wealthy oombination of
capitalists in New York, who wish to
seoure railroad, mining and other oon-
tracts in China. The syndicate has or­
ganized a company oalled tho Auteri-
can-China Development Company, in­
corporated under the laws of tbe state
of New Jersey.
Their plans are far-
reaching and comprehensive, but they
have not yet beeeu brought to a suffi­
ciently definite form to justify a report
thereon.
It is supposed, however,
that they w ill confine their attention
to North China, aud that they have at
present uo projeota south of the Yaug-
tse river.
“ The Bethlehem iron works have
been represented in Peking daring tho
winter by Captain Kalinaki, U. H. A.,
retired. This oompanv wishes to ob­
tain orders for coast defenses, armor-
plates, disappearing guns, amnmni-
tion, etc., aud its agent also submitted
to the yanten plans for submaiiue
boats. The yamen seems at present
disinclined to enter on naval recon­
struction, against which they are
strongly advised by Hir Robert Hart,
inspector-general of onstomt.
The
foreign customs revenue is now almost
entirely pledged to pay the Rusaian-
Frenoh and German-English loans of
200,000.000 taels. A further indebted­
ness of 60,000,000 taels, on similar
terras, would require to meet it the
balauoe of oustoms revenue now re­
maining, and would leave China with­
out revenue from this source for many
years to come. Want of funds w ill
prevent the purchase of a Urge Beet or
great lDVestmeut in ooast defenses.
American methods and American in­
vestments would no doubt do a great
deal to stimulate trade with China. It
ia, of conrse, known that anything that
would inorease the business with China
would be of immense advantages to
the Pacific slope, as the trade with the
Orient must be carried on from tbe Pa-
clflo ooast. It ia known that a great
d » l of big industries, such as railroad­
building, shipbuildiug, and iu faot
anything of a modern character, must
of necessity draw from the outside
world, aud the United States could
best supply such demands, aud in turn
these supplies would be taken from the
ooaat states.
