Baltimore, Nov. 9-Returns from coun-
ties up to 2:30 this afternoon are still in
complete. but sufficient to base an esti-
mate of the general result. The repub-
licans gained unexpected victories in
several democratic counties, including
senators in Hartford, where Allen, re-
publican, is elected over Stump, demo-
crat, who was president OF the last SEN
ate. They also gain four senators. The
next senate stands, according to present
estimates, sixteen democrats and ten re-
publicans. In the last senate there were
seven republicans and nineteen demo-
Gratis. Based on the same estimate, the
house stands fifty-nine democrats and
thirty.two republicans. The republicans
elected Frederick Stone, republican, for
chief judge in the seventh judicial dis
trict; al-o John Brooke, republican, assis-
tant Judge for the same district. In

A Chicago telegram says the officials
Of the Lake Shore road are densely
ignorant Of the programme for the
lightning express, and the public are un-
informed from the official sources else
where. It is said Vanderbilt hos met 90
many difficulties in complying with the
Pennsylvania roads fast time that he
has given up tho fast train from Chica-
20 to New York, and will not attempt to
beat the Pennsylvania time from New
York to the west. The difficulty arises
from the longer route Of the Vanderbilt
combinations, and from jealousy of the
Michigan Central and Canada roads,
which must be left out in the cold.

tration as controller Of the currency,

and qualifications of the men appointed
as bank examiners. It is claimed that
many Of these men are not qualified for
the positions they hold, and owe their
appointments either to political influ-
enoe, or to the personal favoritism of the
controller. A purely partisan attack
will no doubt be made on Mr.. Knox.

Cotton Fields and Cotton Mills.


Economists tell US that within the
next twenty years Americ9 will need
fifteen millions ofnew spindles, with
accompanying machinery, for the
transformation of the chief product
of southern agriculture into other
commodities of commerce. Where
should these new spindIes be set in
operation? The answer Ofeconomy
is: Where the transformation of
raw material can be effected, and the
new commodities be placed on the
best market at the least cost. Obvi-
ously, then, the cotton field, the cot
ton mill and the railway center
should be brought together, the cot
ton field cannot be moved from the
southern latitude. Nature has given
to the south one-third of America,
east of the continental backbone
virtually monopoly ofthis product
for the world; for, though the eli
mate and soil of India and portions
of Mexico and South America are
adapted to the cultivation ofcotton,
experiment has shown that new
civilization must appear in those
countries before its cultivation can
be successfully introduced. For an
indefinite period of the future the
southern portion of America will
cOntInue to be the chief cotton-pro-
ducing region. Why may it not also
be the chief cotton-manufacturiRg
region Oh this Gontinentl Why
should not the fact that nature has
given to that region monopoly of
the cotton-growing industry cause
to spring up there the most eXten-
sive manufacturing industry of the
land ?-ChicdgO Tunes.

Tho Wool Market.

The eondltion.ofthen northern woolmar-
kets Is not encouraging, though dealers
claim the.outlook for the goods market is
very promising and that wooden manu-
facturers will soon have to become large
buyers of the raw material. The goods
market is certainly more active. Cloth
iers have been purchasing more freely of
the heavy goods, and the manufacturers
must now have some good orders on
hand. This is the result of the extreme
weather we have had during the past
winter, and IL the predictions of the
weather prophets be verified and we
have cold and wet summer, light
woolens will be in such demand as to
compel the manufacturers to become
large purchasers of the new clip. The
receipts of wool thus far have been very
light .and unimportant and prices are
nominal A few sales ofthe new clip have
been made In San Antonio at 10 cents and
dealers here believe the market will
open in earnest inca few days at prices
ranging from Is to % cents,

A LOOK AHEAD.
"Coming events casting their shadows be-
fore and growing to be the most inter-
esting of all questions"

The interest in the summer and fall
elections is commencing to crop out, and
within u month the chances for the differ
ent aspirants for the suffrage ofthe sover-
eign people will be discussed pro and con
with constantly increasing animation.
The all potent argument as to the party
probabilities will be the figures Ofthe last
contest, and none will be more earnestly
canvas;ed than those of the congressional
struggle, and this being the fact, the new
b. Il .. Red Book congressional edition
becomes almost indispensable. No publ
cation of political statistics ever made
equals it in extent of information given,
or in comprehensive arrangement. 1t
of 1881, but the result rs well of the cleo
tion Of 1878. The Republican, Demo
cratic aud Greenbaek vote for the two
elections is presented separately and COM
parsons made of gains or losses of the
different parties. Total votes are also the
subject of comparison, and this exhaust
i've showing is made of every congressional
district in the Union by counties. The
book is of one hundred and twelve pages,
is a marvel oftypOgraphical beauty, being
printed upon an elegantly finished paper,
and the cover is one of the most exquisite
things in the way ofartistic design issued
for many year. The Red Books a b. &
o. publication intended for something
above the ordinary circulation, and to
this end Is sent only where requests are
made to G. X. Lord, G. p. A. Baltimore,
Nd, for it by mail and enclosing three
cent stamp. The Red Book will thus be
mailed to all who may write to Mr.. Lord
for it, and certainly those who receive II
will not part with it for almost any money,
so exceedingly valuable a text book is it
Tor all who are interested In or care aught
for political statistics.
