ST. PAUL. NoY. 3.--It looks very much
this morning as though the democrats will
elect three of the five congressman in tnis
state. It Is not likely that the maj orlty
Ior governor will DO less than 10000, as
the most reliable republican strongholds
are Yet 10 be heard from.
st. Paul-The entire republican state
ticket has been elected IN Minnesota by
20, 600 to Ii, 600 majority. A. 4. McGll1
for governor is running behind the rest
Of the ticket, republican, A. Z. Rice, for
lieutenant governor will have about 25,-
600 majority. In the first couGre ssional
district, Judge william Wilson, demo-
crat, Ii elected; In the second district,
JnO. Lind, republ can, is elected; In the
third district Judge J. 8. Mcdonald,
democrat, Is elected; 10 the
fourth IL seems pretty certain
that Mayor Edmund Rice is
elected. In the Fifth, Knute Nelson, re-
publican, with no opposition, il elected.
On joint ballot the republicans will prob
ably h9Ye q safe WorSing majority in
the state legislature, though It 10 possi-
BILE that the farmers alliance may head
the balance Of power. The reduced vote
of the republican party on state and con-
gressional tickets IL claimed tonight as
much due to the bro Is and dissensiOns OF
the party in the state conventions as to
the vigorous canvass made By the demo-

president to task tor suspending District
Attorney Benton, who had been sacrificed
so a. 20 reach Stone. the republican in
Pennsylvania 1t was also stated that the
president already regretted suspendiBg
and would reinstate him. Vest and Cock
rell had requested Benton to make speeches
and would stand by him. II the presi-
dents civil service rules are to be 60 regu-
lated as to reach republicans only, and Ii
politicians can secure violations of the
order by standing by the violators, then
CIVIL service reform Is q roaring farce.
The only question than can Iegitlmately
enter into the question OF Benton's REIN
statement seems to the Daily News to be,
whether or not he neglected his O1icial
duties to make can. psign speeches.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. S0.-The follow
ing telegram was sent to-day to the United
States treasury department, relative TO the
recent decision concerning the duty on
iron ore. as sent out by the Western Asso-
ciated Press from Warrington yesterday /:
Hon. G. g. Fairchild, assistant secretary
of the treasury, Washington The under
signed, representing a production this
year of over 3,0O0.OOO tons Of American
iron ore, in the states Of Michigan, Wis
consin and Minnesota. which product
would be directly effected by such de-
cIsion Of the treasury department as is In
dictated in the Associated press dispatches
of this morning. respectfully represent that
the iron ore of commerce Is never
bought and sold dried at q temperature
of 212 degrees Fahrenheit; that universally
and every where il Is sold by the ton with
whatever moisture may be in it. The ef-
tect of such G construction of the law
would largely reduce the rate OF duty on
foreign ores and operate most iDjuriouslv
on the vast amount of American capital
and the hundreds Of thousands of Ameri-
can laborers engaged in American ore pro-
duction. Having had no intimAtion OF
such application for Q virtually large re-
duction of the duty we respectfully ask
tor q suspension of the decision of the
department upon this subject and that we
may have an opportunity for hearing for
the establishment of the facts We have
stated.
