MI. Morrison Defeated and Speaker
Carlisle's Fate I'm Doubt.
Mr.. SPRINGER REFLECTED BY MARROW MA
JoRIrY AND Mr.. HOLMAN PROBABLY DE
FEATED.-THE DEMOCRATS CARRY COLORADO.
Later returns regarding the elections of Tues
day reveal even more astonishing political
changes than were indicated by the first re-
ports. The most remarkable features are the
defeat OF Mr.. VIM. R. Morrison, in Illinois, and
the cutting down of the majorities of Speaker
Carlisle and Mr.. Holman SO as to leave the fate
OF both these gentlemen in doubt. The latest
dispatches give ground for the belief that Mr..
Carlisle has been reelected by a few hundred
majority. In Kentucky the republicans have
gained two members. In Illinois they have
gained four. In Indiana the republicans have
gained three Congressmen, in Ohio five, in New
York two. in New Jersey one, In North Caro-
lima two. In Iowa one, and two in Michigan. In
Virginia the republicans elect six Congressman,
the democrats three and the labor party one.
This is a gain OF tour for the republicans and a
loss of five tor the democrats In Colorado the
and elected the governor Both the democrats
and republicans claim the New Jersey legsla-
ture. The republicans claim the legislature of
Indiana by three on joint ballot, but the demo-
Gratis dispute their claim.
KENTUCKY.
;, Returns indicate the defeat of Speaker Car.
Isle, in the sixth Kentucky district, by Mr..
George II. ThoeDe, labor candidate The result,
however, is in doubt. The Louisville Courier:
Journal claims 300 majority tor Car. isle. aud the
Cincinnati Enquirer gives him 2O3. The indi-
cations are that the republicans have certainly
gained two congressman, leaving Mr.. Carlisle
in doubt. The Cburier-JOurndt gives the dele
CATION as follows: First, VIM. j. Stone, dem.;
second, Polk Laffon, dem.; third, G. w. Hunter.
rep; fourth, A. v. Montgomery, dem; fifth,
Asher g. Caruth, dem.; ninth, q. NJ. Thomas;
rep; tenth, w. p. Taulbee, dem.; eleventh, H. u.
Finley, rep.
INDIANA.
Democrats concede the election of the repub-
lican state ticket in Indiana by 900 majority.
The congressional returns do not change the
estimate of a gain OF three districts by the re-
ture by two majority on joint ballot. The
democrats also claim the legislature. Judge
LOwry's defeat by Waite In the twelf b cOn-
gressional district is positively asserted, and il
is believed that Holman is defeated by Lucas
in the fourth.
The defeat of Mr.. Morrison in the eighteenth
Illinois district is conceded by democrats. Mr..
Springer is probably elected by greatly re-
duced majority in the thirteenth district The
defeat cato OF Neece dem, in the eleventh district,
rep, is indicated by latest returns Complete
returns show that the next Illinois legislature
democrats Is, united labor i; house, republI-
cans 1S, democrats 66, united labor Z, prohlbi-
tionists 2. The constitutional amendment
abolishing the contract convict system of prison
labor in illinois is beiie\ ed To be adopted.
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Returns from all but iorty towns and wards
In New Hampshire give Sawyer, rep, for gov
ernOr, 33, 423; COgsweli, den., 33, ia; Went
worth, pro-, 1878; Carpenter, gbk., IL. The
towns to hear from will increase Cogsweii's vote
SO that it will exceed Sawyers. The result in
the first congressional district Is somewhat In
DOUBT, with the chances in favor of Mckinney,
dein. although the republican state committee
rep, in the second district, is elected by a re-
duced plurality. The council will stand repub-
lican to l. the senate is republican IA to 10.
although there is some doubt OF Choice in one
or Two districts, and the house is republican by
a good working majority. The republican ma
jority in the lesislature will insure the election
of Sawyer as governor and OF republican
United States Senator.
NEW YORK.
Returns from the nineteenth New York dis
trict show plurality OF "a for Kane, dem.,
Peckham's (dem.) plurality Tor Judge of the
court of appeals is estimated al ,634 Other
wise there is 40 change in the result.
OHIO.
The seventh and the fifteeuih congressional
districts in this state are still in some doubt. In
the former the democrats claim the election OF
Says Little rep, is elected by 15 majority. 1t
Will take the official count to decide. In the
fifteenth district GroSvenOr, rep, has 1865
majority outside OF Monroe county. Ii Monroe
county should give Warner q majority exceed
ing this, he would be elected, but ii is not likely
that the democratic majority in this county

pubicans-First, Butterworth; second, Brown;

Cal career in Toiedo, and intimated that he

ination in a New YORK city district.

virtual political revolution in tus state. OF ten
congressional districts in the state the repuUl-
caus carried six, the democrats three and the
labor party one, being net loss OF tive congress-
men TO the democrats.

The vote of the two parties in West Virginia
is very close. GoH Is reelected to Congress in
the first district Ly from 800 TO l,UUO majority.
In tie third district Snyder, den, is certainly
elected. In the second district tue republicans
claim Flick's election, but the returns leave it

MISSOURI,
The indications are that the congressional
delegation will stand as at present, IL DEM
ocrats and republicans. In the second district,
where y. II. Mansur is running as the regular,
and john b. Hale as an Independent democrat
regarded as quite close and both sides claim
the victory, but the indications favor Mansur
by from 500 TO 900 majority. In the fifth the
reelection OF VIM. Warner, rep, is now con-
