Excepting in Stony, Lyon and OrInsby
counties, the Republican ticket has
been elected. This will give Sharon
twenty votes in the Legislature. This,
added TO nine Republicans holding
over, makes twenty-nine, with indica-
tons that in the other counties the
Legislative ticket has gone Republican
sufficient 10 give Sharon the requisite
thirty-eight votes on Joint ballot to elect
him Z. S. Senator. The Republicans
claim that WoodbuIn is elected to
Congress, with the glbernatOrial office
doubtful, as between Bradley and Haz-
lett. Ellis, Dem, is probably elected to
Congress.
Tennessee.
Later returns indicate the election
of Colonel Casey Young, DEM, to Con
gress by over 5000 majority, Demo
cratic gain over the last Congressional
election of nearly 1900. Returns from
West Tennessee show heavy Democratic
gains. Fayette and Hardeman, hith-
erto Republican by large maiorities,
give Democratic maiorities respectively
Of ! 100 and 200. The Congressional
delegation stand: Republicans, 2; Dem
ocrats, 8. The vote was very light, Of
least one fourth less throughout the state
than in the August election. The State
has gone Democratic by from $500 to
1000, and all the Congressional delega-
ton, except in the First and Second
districts, which are doubtful. Both
houses of the Legislature are largely
Democratic.
Louisiana.
Gov. McEnery telegraphs that the
Conservatives have carried the state bv
n large majority. The colored pt ople.
IN large numbers, voted openly and
freely forthe Democratic and C0nserva
tive ticket. Gibson, Ellis, Moore,
Spencer and Levy are certainly elected
Congressman, and probably Breaux.
Additional returns are favorable to
the Conservatives The indications are
that they elect five Congressman and
the state treasurer. The Democrats
claim the election of GS members of the
Legislature, So being a majority. Con
gressmen: Republicans, / Democrats, s..

Enough gainsare reported to insure the
election of the Democratic state ticket
by from 5000 to 10000 majority. Five
Democratic Congressman are certainly
elected, and probably two others, and
there is n Democratic majority in the
Legislature. More negroes voted the
Democratic ticket than whites voted
the Radical. Democratic gains are re-
ported from every county heard from
except Sumter. Williams, Democrat,
IN the Second district, is probably
elected over Rapier by COO or 700 ma
Iority, This gives n Democratic gath
of three Congressman.
Georgia.
Dabney is elected to Congress from
the Seventh district by 300 or 300 ma
Iority. The entire delegation to Con-
gross is Democratic, beyond doubt.
Georgia's congressional delegation con-
sists of nine members, all Democrats.

Maryland has elected an entire DEM
ocratic congressional delegation, con
sisting Of six members.
Arkansas.
Enough returns are received to indi-
cate with considerable certainty that
CAM is elected in the First: Clemens in
the Second; Wiltshire in the Third and
Gunther in the Fourth Congressional
districts are elected. They are all
Democratic Conservative nominees.

The contest for Governor is still in
doubt, with the chances favoring Cham
berlain, Rep. The election of Mackey.
Fusion, from the second, and Smalls
(colored), Rep, from the Fifth district,
are conceded. In the Fourth district
the vote is close between Wallace and
kershaw. The other districts are still
il doubt.
Florida.
Returns from Florida come in slowly. !
The indications are that both districts
elect Republicans to Congress.
Arizona.
The election of Stevens, independent
delegate TO Congress, is generally con
,eded.
Illinois.
The Chicago Tribune sums mp the
result in Illinois as follows: 1t is ex-
.remely difficult TO estimate the result
lf the vote ON the state ticket in Hi
nois. But, if we may Judge from the
probable maioritIes on Congressman
elected, the vote shows an opposition
majority of $4,000 in the state, though
MIR. Ridgway, the Republican candi-
date for state treasurer, is probably
elected. This is owing 10 division of
the opposition vote betw en- Carroll and
Gore. The aggregate maiorities of the
opposition Congressional candidates
elected in the state seems To be about
81 800, and those of the Republican
Congressman about $500, which would
leave an opposition majority of $1,000
in the state. To this should be added
about 200 majority which was thrown
away on Sam Marshall, Rolla b. Henry,
and John b. Turner. II is not impos-
siblc, therefore. that Mr.. Ettcr may be-
elected 10y $4,000 majority.
