jamin Harrison of Indiana has been
chosen president of the nation and Mr..
Levi z. Morton of New York vice
president. The returns thus far re-
ceived indicate that the tariff reform
Issue has proven strongest In the states
hOpeleSSly republican. In Illinois.
Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska the
democratic ticket has made large gains
upon the lines foreshadoWed in the tar
iff debate in the house. These gains,
though encouraging. have not been suf-
ficient TO Offset the republican MAORI
ties in those states, and have, therefore.
been of no material advantage to the
national democratic ticket. On the
proven strong in the doubtful states,
particularly in New York. The demo
cratic members of the ways and means
committee have been reelected. They
represent soiidly democratic districts
in the main, however, though there can
be no doubt of the popularity
of the tariff issue among their eonstit-
ueuts. From the latest advices it is
probable that the republican gains in
the south and east will exceed all ex-
pectations. A careful compilation OF
congressional returns received at this
hour would indicate that the repub-
Hcans will control the next house by
from eight TO ten majority. The re-
turns from the states of Texas, Ten
nessee. Arkansas, Kentucky, Georgia,
West Virginia and Indiana will be eX-
amined with special interest aside
from that attaching either to the pres
idential contest or the straight con-
gressional fight. From these states
come the members of the famous ways
and means committee of the Fiftieth
xx-hn f0Tpnn1afad and after
one of the most remarkable contests on
record, succeeded in passing the Mills
bill, measure framed upon the lines
laid down by President Cleveland in
his notable tariff message, sent to con-
gresS in December last.
The opinion formed last night which
gave the state of New York to Harri-
son for president and to Hill demo
craLl for governor is confirmed by later
scattering returns. The districts yet
to be heard from cast in 1884 total of
1854. $50 votes. Reports by counties in
Guiding Allegheny. Cattoughs, Cort-
land, Delaware, Ontario, Onandago.
Putnam, Queens, Rensselaer,, Rock.
Seneca, Schuyler, Suffolk. Tompkins,
Ulster, Wayne, Thestchester and
Yates, indicates a further gain of

| NEW YORK, Nov. Ga midnight
extra of the Sun says: The returns SO
| far as received make it seem probable
that Harrison has carried New York
state by from Z, 900 to 10000 plurality.
Cleveland has polled a handsome vote
in New York City, his plurality being
not far from. $4,000, but he has not
held his own in Kings county, his piur-
atty there is about II 900, which is d
loss of about 1000 in 1884. From
the state above the Bronx river
the republicans in almost every section
show great gains. If the proportion that
is now received keeps up Harrison viii
come to the Bronx river with from 80,
600 to $1,000 plurality at this hour
however, the most favorable returns
are constantly received, and later re-
turns will be likely to reduce that
plurality somewhat. However, unless
there is a decided change from the re
/ port of gains nov received, Harrison
will come to the Bronx with over so,
900 plurality. We cannot now tigure
at over p 600 or $4,000 plurality, fol
Cleveland in the state. No decisive
returns have yet been received as K
the governorship, but the indication:
are that Governor Hill ha:
been reelected. He runs ahea(
of Cleveland in all quarters that have
been heard from. The vote on the 10
cal ticket has only been partially count
ed but so far it indicates the election
of the Tammany ticket, of the so-calleC
pivotal state. The latest reports from
Connecticut indicate the election o
the Harrison ticket by fIom 800 t.
900. The later returns from New
Haven may cut this down somewhat
New Jersey is democratic by abou
5000.
