THE FEELING AT WASHINGTON.
Free Trade or Tariff Reform Gets a
Severe Setback.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-The result of Tues
days election and the probable change in the
respective strength of the Democrats and Re-
publicans in the next House is the principal
topic of conversation here among politicians.
The Republicans are delighted with the re-
ported gains of Congressman and profess to
be better satisfied with cutting down the
Democratic majority to very narrow mar
gin than if they had carried the next House
by slight majority. Free trade, or tariff
reform, they say, has received a black eye
and something has been done too in Vir-
ginia, North Carolina and West Virginia to
break up the solid South. Democrats are
generally quiet, but say they will be satisfied
if Mr.. Carlisle is elected and they hold the
House. Nothing is said at the White House ex-
cept that they are we'll satisfied
with the result. Friends of the
administration say that they think
that taken altogether the result shows
healthy condition and cannot in any way
tration. The tendency they say seems to be
to distribute the strength Of the party over
the country and take from it all sectional
character. The gains in Minnesota, Colora-
do, Nebraska and Massachusetts, and the
gain of a Congressman in Pennsylvania, they
say, offset the disruption in the South. The
men who have been defeated have not been
conspicuous friends of the administration.
Quite the contrary has been the case. The
only place where it might be said that the
administration was squarely the issue was in
Massachusetts, and there very satisfactory
gains were made. In Virginia where the
Democrats lost heavily the candidates were
conspicuously opposed to the President and
civil service reform. In North Carolina
where the Democrats lost two Congressman,
one of the men defeated was the anti
administration candidate who was nomi-
mated over Mr.. Cox. The force of the
whole protectionist organization, they say,
was used against the conspicuous civil service
reformers. Beside this Colonel Morrison was
opposed to the administration, SO was Hol-
man, SO was Warner of Ohio and several
others were. They think Mr.. Beck's outspoken
antagonism to the administration hurt the
Democrats in Kentucky and Mr.. Carlisle i'll
particular. Moreover, Mr.. Carlisle was to ken
by surprise, having given no thought to a
serious campaign. Protectionists claim that
the result of the election gives them great
strength and it is generally conceded that
they are the gamers by the fight.
The defeat of Morrison and Carlisle's
narrow escape are an immense victory for
them. 1t is believed that the Rand all ele
ment will be in the ascendant in the House
during the Fiftieth Congress and Randall, it
is thought, will be master of the situation.

DENVER, Col, Nov. 4.-The Republicans
now concede the election of Adams for gov
ernor by 1000 plurality. The returns from
all but six counties on Congressman leave
both parties even. The counties to hear
from haye always been Democratic and will
probably elect Reed, DEM, by small ma
jority. Arrapahoe county returns six,
possibly seven Democrats out of eight repre-
sentatives to the State legislature and one
Democratic State senator; a Democratic gain
of seven in the lower house and one in the
Senate. There is little doubt but that the
Democrats will have control of the lower
house and possibly the Senate.
DENVER, No. 4.-Later returns show the
vote for Reed Oem.) and Symes for Congress
to be close and it will probably require the
official count to decide. The Democrats claim
81 members out of 40 in the lower house-a

Large Gains for the Democrats.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 1.-The returns to-day
make very material change in the situation
in this State and show that the Republicans
have carried fifty-fve representative and
nineteen senatorial districts, while the DEM
CORA have carried forty-fve representative
and thirty-one senatorial districts, giving
the latter majority of two on joint ballot:
This will ensure the election OF Democrat
to succeed Harrison in the United States
Senate. Official returns from sixty eight
counties and estimates on the remaining
thirty-four at the Republican headquarters
give Robinson, Rep.) candidate for lieutenant
governor, plurality Of 1887. If the returns
fall under this estimate part OF the Repub-
lican ticket will be defeated. Complete re-
turns will not be received until morning.
The Democrats claim that the counties not
reported will show gains and part if not all
of their State ticket is elected.

People don't half appreciate the

SAID q dealer TO a reporter recently.
1T Is often remarked as strange that
in large cities like New York every
man does not have his name and adj
dress marked upon his clothing, or
carry a check attached TO his bunch
of keys with his name and residence
upon it. The people found i'll or dead
on the street by the police are rarely
identified by the marks found upon
them. There, for instance, the case
of the supposed broker whose body
was taken to the morgue last week.
Several persons thought they identi-
lied him. Much anxiety and trouble
was caused, and all because the dead
man had neglected to have his name
marked upon his wearing apparel. 1t
is not easy TO identify man after he
is dead, as any person who has tried
it will tell you. A little forethought
would save many complications and
mysteries, besides much anxiety, and
also restore many missing person or
dead body to friends and relatives.
Take a metal check on a bunch of
keys. They are better than marking
or writing Of any kind, for they SIRE

the only means by which bodies could
be identified that were taken from the
ruins of fire, and their cost is only
nominal Key rings offer con
venient way Of carrying your name
about with you. They are made of
German silver and will not rust or
corrode. They can be easily opened
or securely closed, and the surface be
ing fiat leaves plenty Of space for the
owners name and address. Another
important and valuable invention in
our line is check protector. This
renders fraudulent alterations of
checks impossible. The machine is a
small hand arrangement that punch
es a series of small round holes
through the paper, forming figures,
with large stoop-holes At each end.
This of necessity etfectually prevents
the raising of the amount OF the

Popular Science Monthly,
The number of mans ancestors
doubles ia every generation as his

ancestors, his father and mother. In
the second generation the two are
converted into four, since ne had two
grandfathers and two and two grand
mothers. But each of these four had
two parents, and thus in the third
generation there are eight ancestors
that is eight great grandparents. In
the fourth generation the number of
ancestors is is; in the fifth, SO: in the

years or TO A. ID. 1893, when William
the Conquerer had been sleeping in
his grave of Caen only six years, and
his son, William ii. ,surnamed Rufus,
