harrison and Morton have been elected
president and vice president of the United
States The majority for the republican
candi Iates in the electoral college will be
one vote less than that cast in 1894 for
Cleveland and Hendricks Harrison has
carried New York. Indiana, California,
Michigan and Colorado, all Of which have
been regarded as debatable states. The
be far from 10000. In Indiana it will
be very small, but in Minnesota,
Iowa and Michigan, where the interest
manifested in the tariff question was
relied upon TO effect considerable change
in the vote, the republicans have developed
their full strength, and obtained pluralities
for the national ticket much larger than
those cast for Blaine in 1894.
Connecticut gives a small majority for
Cleveland, and shows marked democratic
gains in tho manufacturing towns where
the question of tariff taxation has been
constantly and thoroughly discussed during
the long campaign. New Jersey, state
greatly interested in manufacturing, not
only more than doubles its democratic ma
iority of 1884, but chooses legislature
that will elect democratic United States
Senator 10 succeed Mcpherson.
Chairman Huston of the Indiana repubi
can state committee announces that dis
patches from all parts Of the state indicate
that the state has gone republican by safe
plurality, and he has not received single
d'scouraging report from any quarter. In
dianapolis has gone wild claiming Harri-
sons election certain.
/ The Chicago Tribune says: Gen. Harri-
son has carried the state of Illinois by at
least 10000 majority and il may be moro,
III ID,.fxr oh
governor by majority not far from 10000.
In Cook county the vote on governor is
close, and il is not probable the majority
either way when figured out will be large.
The Cook county returns when complete
will show a majority for Gen. Harrison OF
probably 1000, whereas Mr. Blaine's ma
iority four years ago in the county was
$500 The returns from this state, outside
the county, show republican gains, and
this, on the average, will tend TO compen-
safe for the losses suffered in Cook county.

5arily meagre, they show effect that the
republicans will have control OF the next
house. by a majority of % votes.

an increased majority OF 8, OO1,
! The republican plurality in Massachusetts
( is 25, 90
California is claimed by both republicans

i bly, exceed sc, 900.

> ,cket is elected by from 1890 to 10, 900, al
though Gov. Luce may be behind the rest
