SENATORIAL PROSPECTS. Washington, Nov. 5. As regards the election of United States senators there five doubtful states yesterday were Delaware, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Sbuth Dakota. It is now reasonably certain that Delaware will have a Republican legislature. Kansas will elect a fusion orlndcpcn dedt senator to succeed Peiler. Ken tucky on the face of the returns will elect a Republican to succeed Black burn. The North Carolina legisla ture is in doubt with the chances fa voring the fusionlsts, made up of Re publicans and Populists. South Da kota is still in doubt. The senate therefore, on this estimate would stand Republicans 44. Democrats 32. Independents and Populists 12. Doubtful 2, Total 90. KANSAS SAFE. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 5. Kansas has, without a doubt, elected Bryan electors. This is conceded by tho Re publican state chairman, Simpson. Populists State Chairman Breidenthal claims the state for the fusion ticket, by 13,000. Republicans assert the ma jority will be nearer 5,000. The state ticket is close. It will take an official vote to decide. INDIANA RETURNS. Indianapolis, Nov. C.-Seventy-three counties out of 02 in Iudiana show a plurality in the state for Mc Kinley of 20,252. Remaining counties may bring it down to 19,000 or 18,000. IDAHO SOLID, Chicago, Nov. 5 Senator Dubois wires the Associated Press from Blackfoot, Ida: "About one-third of the state has been heard from Indi cating with tolerable accuracy that McKinley will get about one vote In every 6even in the state and that Borah, Sliver Republican, will bo elected to congress and will carry the legislature against the combina tion of Democrats, Populists and Gold Republicans. There will not be ono McKinley Republican elected to the legislature, In the entire state and McKinley Republicans will not cheat an officer instate." WILL TAKE OFFICIAL: COUNT.

With two whole counties (Leslie and Knott) and eighteen precincts migsing, Bryan lias a plurality of 215 votes In the O-mBOCOXlXJk tottw sialU Itfutart Um state, but many returns are unofficial and It'secms highly probable tho state board will have to decide result. Plater. Chicago, Nov. 5. 1 p. m. The Ken tucky returns pvhich arc supposed to be nearly correct1, 100 out of 119 coun ties, give Bryan a plurality of 054.

With nearly the 'complete returns In, Plngreo's plural ity is estimated &t about 70,000. Mc Klnley's is 15,000 less. The Congres sional consists of 12 Republicans and 2 Fusionlsts. MINNESOTA.

THE MARKETS. Hops Going Up. Tho hop market of '90 Is a most pecu liar one, and is as much of a surprise to brewers and dealers as growcrs,says the Oregon City Press. Six weeks ago 50,000 bales could have been secured In Oregon at 5 to 0 cents, but tho brewers refused to advance picking money and hops were lcft-unplcked. The sjimo thing happened In Washing ton, California andtNcw York, result lug In the American crop being re duced to about 170,000 balos or 100,000 bales short of a full crop. The amount required for home consumption is 200,003 bales, which leuvosan apparent shortngc, but here is where the olds and old-olds-must be llgurod In, nnd they nre variously estimated ut from 35,000 to 100,000 bales. England's crop is estimated ut 3o0, 000, which is 150,000 bales short of her requirements and 30,000 short of her average crop. The continental crop will not be largo this year. The Austro Hungar ian yield fflll be heavy, but In many of tho German states only half or two thirds of a crop is expected.

K k Polls Closed to Shut Out the Bryan Men, AND COERCION. DID ITS WORK. Enormous. Vote Polled Up Jhere for McKinley, Portland, Nov. 5. (Special ) (Fol lowing telegram from Portland shows how the election was conducted there by which about 18,000 votes arc cast, 2,000 more than in June last, and a plurality of nearly 0,000 rolled up for McKinley. The election passed off quietly In Portland, but coercion and corporate! power were seen at ovcry poll. Em ployers were on hand to coerce em ployes, nnd to watch them cast their ballots. Polls were blocked In some instances both morning, noon and night, and Bryan men werfc kept from voting, and names were left on ballots, thus making it possible to trace any ballot nnd ascertain how a person voted, and tickets wero polled In sucH a manner as to show tho voter had ex pressed his preference. It is said that In soma precincts tho polls were closed from an hour to an hour nnd a half at noon, thus keeping out Bryan voters. Tho A. P. A's sup ported McKinley, almost to a man. and tho major portion of tho Catholic vote went wlth'tlicm. Italians went almost solidly for McKinley. Coercion didn't work, and many who supported tho McKinley electors state that they did bo In order to hold their Jobs, thoy being told that in case of Bryan's election business would close down. Tho pollco took no hand in politics as In former administrations, .but voted as they saw lit. Tho force bdlng non-partisan by order of Ponnoyer. McKinley received some of their votes' Tho most disorderly, disgraceful and contemptible act of the whole day was tho Republican demonstration at night around tho residence of Mayor Ponnoyer. Tho pollco kept good order during the day and did not try machluo poll tics, unless some of tho Republican members of the force wero party to tho same. The River Opened. Portland, Nov. 6. Locks at Cas cades wero formally opened this after noon. Thero wero a large number of pcoplo from Portland and Tho Dalles present. 2000 Deer Killed. J. K.
