Boston, Nov. 8.—The smoke of the political battle has cleared away, and tonight the leaders of both parties are discussing the result, and from it are already forming plans for next year’s work. The Republican leaders are particularly pleased over the gains of Governor Greenhalge in this city, for they claim it shows that, slowly but surely, the people are coming over to their ranks. ‘The Democrats, on the other hand, say they attach no signifi cance to the decreased Democratic plurality in the city other than that their candidate was not personally as popular as Russell, the candidate of 1893, and for proof of the assertion point to the fact that the Democracy gained a senator in Suffolk county, which is practically Boston. The figures of thè Associated Press last night placed the plurality con servatively at a little over 63,000, and all of their returns have justified that estimate. The size of the Populist vote in Mas sachusetts will probably be known to morrow. There are indications that there is a falling off. The question of woman suffrage has been lost sight of, except by those directly interested, but the suffragists claim they are encour aged, as the vote against them was smaller than they anticipated. Viewed by London Papers. London,' Nov. 8.—The Times this morning gives over a column to a New York dispatch regarding the election. The other papers have short dispatches on the subject of the Marlborough-Van derbilt wedding. The Times says of the elections: “The elections have again surprised American politicians. The Republi cans were victorious beyond all expec tations. The failure to break Tam many is discouraging. Such is the state of American politics, in the absence of any great issue, that it is impossible to predict the result of the presidential election. Perhaps the Democrats have the most cause to regret the success of Tammany, for some of Tammany’s moral discredit is bound to fall upon the Democratic party. ” The Daily News says: “The elec tions are showing remarkably in favor of the Republicans, and the presiden tial seat is all but safe for the Republi can candidate. ’ ’ The Chronicle (liberal) says: “It is not quite clear that there is no real Democratic revival. We regret, but are not surprised, at the victory in New York. It carries an important moral for our too extreme temperance friends.” The Post (conservative) says: “The general result confirms the opinion that the reaction against the Democrats, which was so conspicuous last Novem ber, is still in operation.” Crystal, w hich w a s w reck e d Oept ombo r The Report Confirmed. London, Nov. 7.—A Vienna dis patch to the Times confirms the report from Rome as to the visits made separ ately to the sultan by the ambassadors of the different powers by announcing that Austria-Hungary, Germany and Italy have now identified themselves with the other powers by demanding the right to be placed in control and to be acquainted with the porte’s inten tions. A Bev. MINISTER CONVICTED. Hinshaw Is Found W ife-Murder. Guilty of Jack Brady’s Trial. Danville, Ind., Nov. 7.—At 11:30 today the Rev. E. W. Hinshaw, con victed of wife-murder, was brought into court for sentence. Judge Hadley asked whether he had anything to say before sentence was pronounced, and the convicted preacher replied in a long speech, in which he declared him self innocent. Although the jury found him guilty, he cherished no resent ment against them or any man. In conclusion he said: “I desire to go on record in this court, with my hands upon its sacred shrine and my face uplifted to heaven, that their verdict is false. I am not guilty. Before I go to my living bur ial I wish to thank the court for his kindness to me at all times. I com mend you all to God) and will meet; you at the judgment bar, where I will have another trial and will pass into happiness. I go to my living burial, and as I go I salute you. I am now ready for what may come.” Judge Hadley then pronounced sen tence, and Hinshaw was taken back to jail. Hinshaw’s voice trembled as he spoke.’ond it seemed at times as if he would break down. The women ini the audience cried, their sobs being the only pounds that broke the silence when he spoke. ANOTHER RICH MAN’S GIFT. Pittsburg the Beneficiary of gie’s Munificence. 21 at Yakutat bay. All are well and glad to get back. The sixty-five-ton sohooner was run into the bay to escape from a terrific gale which was blowing outside.

THE VERDICT WILDLY CHEERED It Took the Jury but Twenty Minutes to Render a Verdict of Murder in the First Degree. San Francisco, Nov. 4.—Theodore Durrant, assistant superintendent of the Emanuel Baptist ohurch Sunday school, was today oonvicted of the mur der of Blanche Lamont, for which he has been on trial since July 22 last. The jury was out 20 minutes, and ar rived at the verdiot on the first ballot As there was no recommendation of mercy, the punishment was fixed at death. It was exactly 21 minutes from the time the jury left the courtroom to the time the verdiot was announced, but that time was all taken up in delibera tion. In fact, there was no delibera tion at all. The jury had evidently decided upon a verdict before they left the box. It was 3:34 when they filed out of the courtroom into the grand jury room which had been placed at their disposal. It took the twelve men until 3:50 o’clock before they settled themselves comfortably,' and avB: 55 a knock on the door announced to the anxious waiters that a verdict had been found. It took just five minutes of actual time to elect a foreman and take one ballot necessary. The scene in the courtroom when the verdict was announced will never be forgotten by those who were present. Judge Murphy finished his charge at 3:30, and the jury at once retired. Al though there was supposed to be little prospect of a verdict being returned be fore 7 or 8 o’clock in the evening, the throng of spectators, who had remained in the overcrowded courtroom all the •afternoon to hear the judge’s charge, settled themselves back in their seats to await the return of the jury. Mrs. Durrant and the prisoner talked and laughed together as if an acquittal were a foregone conclusion. They were joined by half a dozen friends, and the conversation was becoming animated, when it became whispered about that the jury had agreed upon a verdict. In an instant a hush fell upon the little circle that had gathered around the prisoner, Durrant’s face, always pale, assumed a ghastly hue, and his mother was speechless, Then the big doors At the rear of the room opened, and the members of the jury filed in and took their seats in the box. In the intense excitement which fol lowed, the room, although it was filled to its utmost capacity, was almost as quiet as if it had been vacant. Judge Murphy, who had retired to his cham bers, was summoned, and took his plaoe upon the bench. Clerk Morris asked the usual question as to whether the jury had agreed upon a verdict. Foreman Warren Dutton arose and re plied in the affirmative, saying: “We, the jury, find the defendant, William Henry Theodore Durrant, | guilty of murder in the first degree.” ~lbt and over ^s^cTao'w 7@Í' yiifu »iuu'um- 7J£c; 40 and 50, 6@7c; kip and veal | bling, read the words which fixed Dur skins, 10 to 30 lbs, 5@6c; calfskin, sound, rant’s fate, a low rumbling noise like 3 to 10 lbs, 6@9c; green, unsalted^ lc the roar of a mob arose from the rear less; culls, l@2c less ¡sheepskins, shear of the courtroom.
