gressmen are probably elected: Dem, ats
Follett, hrst; Jordan, second; Lefevre, q ,rth:

AT O'Clock seven hundred and sixty-te rec
precincts show a net Democratic gain of 2 80,
of 35 ,000

the Republicans are getting no more ! ces
and conceding everything but few Cor. sess-
men. The estimates this morning put the
Democratic majority in the State at 25 900 and
make the Congressional delegation stand 10
Democrats to Republicans. The election of
Mckinley in the Eighteenth District aud of
Robinson in the Ninth are in great doubt, and
the Republicans must carry both to get six
Congressman.

perance the prohibition vote has greatly in
creased, and it is estimated as a larger per
cent. gain than the Democratic.
