Gen. Butler Observation-Disclosures
the Same as Usual.
The election throughout the country
passed off quietly. There were no very re-
marksble changes, unless the defeat Vt
Gen. Butler can be so called. Such changes
as occurred were due in most instances to
local causes, the strength of both great par
ties beiNg virtually intact.
MINNESOTA.
The whole republican state ticket is elect
ed by handsome maiorities. Gov. Hubbard's
msjority is estimated at 1900 and the bal
nnce of tie ticket much more, comparing
the total number OF vot7s cast in 1l6 pre-
cincts in 1881, whei Hubbard re eived
9OS7 and Johnson 4 800, to this the in.
creased vote of Tuesday, and the inference
IS that the total vote will be not far short of
$50. 600 instead OF 1902 600, % two years ago,
pr ,vided later returns yield q correspond
ing increase in the total vote. By the ra.
ito between Hubbard ana Bierman in these
precincts, which is about that of eleven to
nine, the former will receive so, 500 votes,
and the latter 81 500. giving Gov. Hubbard
in the neighoorhood OF Is. GOO majority.
In the Dodge county senatorial district
Severance. republican, is elected over
Adams by 450 majority, to take the seat OF
the late Senator Mclaughlin. In the Red
Wing district Hall will take Senator Chand.
ler's seat, Bass, the regular republican
being defeated by the split growing from
last falls contest. In Mower, Wilkinson,
republican, is elected to the legislature.
Gov. Hubbard received 1900 majority in
Ramsey county.
The whole republican ticket was elected
as follows: Governor. George d. Robinson;
lieutenant governor, Oliver Ames; secretary
of state, Henry B. Pierce; treasurer and re-
caiver general, D. A. Gleason; attorney gem
eral, F!3gar J. Sherman; auditor, Charles
Il. Ludd.
Butler has been defeated by a decisive
, majority. Ia Boston. which last year ave
him a majority of 1899, he now has hut
GIL. Only two W in the State; So far
as heard from, report Butler gains. The
Republicans claim the election of Robinson
by at least 1900 majority, and also twenty
seven out OF forty-seven senators and 100
out Of PA representatives.
Butler to judge by present indications, has
aolled about 135,00O votes, or loo more
Than last year; while Robinson has received
l60,0 600 or 40 009 more than were cast for
Bishop in 1882. AS shown above. nearly
3n,o03 votes have been cast, which is an

ever recorded in Massachusetts,. This near
est approach to this number was in 1850,
when 25S. 900 votes were cast.
E YORK.
In New York there il some doubt as to
the result, though the state has probably
gone Democratic, excepting that Carr, Re-
publican, candidate for secretary of state, is
thought to have been elected. The Repub-
licans claim a fair working majority in
both branches of the legislature, which will
insure the election of a Republican senator
test over the mayor has been a hot
one, and the result is very close;
both sides claiming a majority Of
some 6, 900 votes, the ticket probably is,
secretary OF state, Joseph 3. Carr; control
Ter, Alfred G. Chaplin; treasurer, Robert A.
Maxwell; attorney general Dennis O'Erien;
state engineer aud surveyor, E. Sweet. Jr.
The Albany Argus dem., stimate at 2
o'clock q. IN. elects the Democratic State
ticket at by 10000 to $1,000, except May
nard. who is probably defeated by 10, 300
to 10, 600. 1t estimated the senate 10 re-
publicans and Is democrats. The assem-
bly, is in doubt.
PENNSYLVANIA.
Complete returns from Ga of the 81 coun-
ties in the stale give Niles, rep, for auditor
general, q majority of Is, 443, The three

Sullivan, will increase the republican ma
iority to about 1900, which is a large
republican gain. The Offices elect are:
treasurer. William Linnesey; state auditor,
Jerome b. Niles.
NEW JERSEY.
The Democratic state committee claim
the election by over 1000. They also claim
the assembly. The Republican state COM
mittes concede the election of Abbott, Dem,
oy q small majority. The Republicans
probably have the senate by three majority,
aud the Democrats the house by four, Civ
ing the latter a m 'rity on joint ballot.
MARYLAND.
Reports from Maryland received in vari-
Gus quarters are very incomplete. They in.
dictate that McLane, Democrat. has been
elected governor by about 10000 majority,
n a msjority in the legislature.
VIRGINIA.
In Virginia the contest was the most ex-
citing that has taken place for many years
owing to the fact that on the result depends
the congressional reapportioun,ent of the
state ana the election of a SUCCESSOR to SEN
ator Malone. Both sides claim a victory
the democrats asserting hat their gains
have been heavy 10 all paris of the state.
and thatthey expect q maj srity in both leg
~islative houses. The probabilities are thai
the result is very close, and that it will be
several days before anything definite is
known.
The r chmond Despatch (dem) claims a
victory with a majority on joint ballot OF
from ten to 25 and the popular majority be-
tween 10000 and $1,000. Senator Malone,
on the contrary, cia m a resdjuster's victory.
MISCELLANEOUS.
In Mississippi, as usual, there was a
sweeping democratic success. The only dis
rnrhance in tho qIptA no fnr 90 hoor3 fr,,,
was in Cassiah county, where Wheeler
killed Matthews. Matthews went TO thp
polls with q pistol in his hand. He received
twenty-four buckshot in the face.
In Connecticut, the election was for
twelve members of the state senate for terms
OF two years, a ike number holding over,
by five republicans and seven democrats. a
full house of representatives., 249 in num-
Der, were also elected. Late returns make
the legislature stand as follows: Senate,
reps, 10; dems., S. House, reps, 145; dems.,
81. One county and twelve towns are lack
ing, including sixteen representatives. II
these towns vote as last year the result in
the house will be 1855 republicans, 81 demo
Gratis. One tie. Republican majority, 63;

In Nebraska, the only state off voted
for were chief justice of supreme court and
three regents of the state university. The
contest between M. B.. r ese, the republi
cen candidate for chief justice, and j. W.
Savage, the democratic and ~anti-monopoly
candidate, has been carried on quite vigo-
GUS by the Reese who is elected, but by a
largely reduced majority. The best est.
mates of his majority range from five to
ten thousand, tho regular republican ma.
jority in Nebraska being over twenty thou.
