WHO WILL ORGANIZE In

uations in the matter of the organization
OF the house seem now to favor the re-
publicans. Gen. CLARK, the clerk of the
house, has again abandoned his persist
ent claim that the democrats are certain
to have the majority, and states simp!y
that 1T will be necessary to await the
official returns and all that can now be
said is that the result is in doubt. One
OF the leading subordinate officials of
of Gen. Olark's office, VINO has ell the
information ns to the democratic hopes
which Gen CLARK himself has, says that
the officials of the house haVe abandoned
the expectation which they had q few
days ago that the democrats would or
game the house and they themselves
would retain their places. Representa-
tive Wilson of West Virginia, whose seat
has so long been in doubt, and whose
election the republicans still deny, has
arrived here and is frank enough to say
that he has no doubt that the republi-
cans have eesured the control OF the
house by small majority. The conf.
dence of the republican leaders is renew
ed and they now claim that under no cir
cumstances which now seem probable
will it be possible for the clerk OF che
house to refuse to put majority OF re-
publicans upon the roll OF the house OF
the fifty first congress. Chairman Quay
says now, quite openly that he is GER
tain the republicans will control the
house. and he claims six majority. Sena-
tor Malone is also confident that the
republicans will have q majority. The
republicans are now willing to submit
the figures upon which their estimates
are based, as follows:

made bya leading citizen Of Wheeling
yesterday that some steps be taken by
the citizens to arrange for the entertain
ment OF the companies and to offer both
the fist and Second Regiments induce
ments 70 attend in full force. by a
