CHICAGO, Nov. "a. NJ Jone., chair
man of the republican State central com
mittee, estimates that 30 republican seua-
tors have been elected in the state, with
a possible addition of two more from
doubtful districts. illinois, he says,
has without doubt been carried by the
republicans 10y a plurality Of 10000, giving
a majority in both Houses of the Legisla
ture. Returns from many of the close
and doubtful districts indicate large re
publican gains over the late presidential
election, and in almost every section of the
state the republican party mas made sub
stantial gains. He estimates the Senat e
Will be composed of 80 republicans,
IS democrats and three labor party men,
and that the House viii have a working
majority. The republican plurality in
Illinois for State treasurer, the head of
the ticket, is estimated from $4,000 to 2T-

evening was only a matter of Doubt in the
I'd, 10Th, llth, 18th and 10th districts. In
the 2d district the contest between lawler,
dem, and Gleason, labor, is very close.
one computation of unofficial returns
elects Gleason by Is votes while iaWler
claims the district by G2 votes. The re
publicans claim that Gest, rep, has de
feated Neece, dem, in the l1th
district by 400, and also assert that
General Post. rep, has defeated
WOrthington in the 10th district.
Both republicans and democrats claim the
election in the 18th (Springer's) district.
The vote III the 10th is very close. The
republicans have gained ongrcssWau in
the 81 district W. f.. Mason, and one in
the 18th, John Baker. The 10th, nth,
18th and 10Th are at present represented
by democrats, and if the republican claims
tocurryIng three of them should be verified
the mel republican gain in the State would
be five congressman, and ii GleasOn's claim
to the election Is verified, the democrats
would Use six districts in all. The con
stitutional amendment abolishing the con
tract convict system of prison labor in
Illinois is believed TO be adopted, the vote
for it in all the large cities was practically
unanimous and advices thus far received
from the country indicate that the Oppo
sitiOn to ii among the farmers was not
nearly SO strong as the labor element
feared.
