and Of majority of members in the doubtful
CONGRESSIONAL districts. The first two districts,
which comprise the city Ct Cincinnati, elect re-
nubI;cao Congressman fox the first time 10 sew
eral years. Butterworth is elected over Sayer

Eoelish, Independent
Neal, republican, beats Emmett 10 the l2th
district BY 200 majority.
Foster has msde large galus 10 the eighth,
| but probably not enough to overcome f,oUu
| maiority against him. The fourteenth, fifteenth
aad sixteenth are democratic; the seventeenth,
eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth are re-
| publican. The eleventh, fifth and thirteenth

pub!icars are boiaterous and ju6llant, claiming
the election of both Congressman here and the
