BISMARCK. N. D., Oct. 2.-Returns
from the state at large are coming In
SLOWLY. In Burleigh county the Repuo-
lican majority on the state ticket Is 4oV-
100 in excess of the largest estimate. Inc
Republican legislative ticket, Little, Will
Jams and Rawling, are elected by major
tiles ranging from 100 to $50. Wmches-
ter Rep.) carries the district for Judge
but runs 900 behind the state ticket.
In Morton county the Republican legls-
lative ticket is elected. InStark county,
where there was sharp fight, the he
publican legislative ticket is elected. In
the Kidder- -Emmons district the same Is
true. The thirteen Republican candl-
dates in the Bismarck land district are
elected. Prohibition is defeated in Bur-
leigh county by 400 majority, and in the
counties of the Missouri slope by l,ooo
majority. .-
The only lawyer candidate for state
senator-J. s. Frye, Rep, of jamestown
seems to be defeated by his strong IN
dependent opponent-Bailey Fuller. Inc
reason for this defeat was too much ran
road interference. La Moure county
elected the Republican candidates to the
q legislature. There was some douD'
there. 1t looks as if the 10000 Repuph
can majority is sure.

Murder and Suicide at Ogema, Wis.' ior
which No Cause Can Be Assigned
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. B. Meager
accounts Of double tragedy at ogema,
Wis, have reached here. Charles Stev.
enson and William Johns, who roomed
together, were found dead in their beds.
II is not known that they had quarreied,
and the motive for the crime cannot De
surmised, as they had been good friends.
The appearances indicate that Stevenson,
in whose right hand the revolver, was
found. had shot Johns, who probably
died without struggle. The murderer
had then placed the revolver TO his own
head and blown out his brains.

He Starts for Florida on Wednesday
-Pennsylvanta Politics.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Quay
has arranged to leave for Florida on
Wednesday next, to be gone several weeks,
bunting, fishing and recuperating his ener-
gies. He expects the Senate ia riff bill to
be disposed of by Wednesday. 1t is his de-
sire to vote on it, which has kept him here
until now. State Senator and Mrs. James
Rutan are the guest Of Senator and Mrs.
Quay Tnev arrived last evening and will
remain until Tuesday. Senator Rutau IS
quoted as saying that his visit has no polit-
ical significance, but it is generally believed
that he is here at Senator Quay's request, to
talk over the differences in the
Republican party in Pennsylvania.
Senator Quay's opponents iu his
own party want peace, and want it at
al uost any price. Senator Quay can make
his own terms. He will undoubtedly name
the next candidate for governor 1t is
stated that his present choice for governor
is Adjt. Gen Hastings, who presented Sen
ator Sherman's name for him at Chicago
in one of the few good speeches of that
convention, Senator Cameron will not in
terfere with Senator Quay, and in return it
is stated that Senator Quay will not inter
fere with Senator Cameron.
SIGNS OF APPREHENSION.
Senator Allison says that the final vote
on the Senate substitute for the Mills bill
will be had on Tuesday without fail He
says there is no doubt in his mind Of the
adoption of the Senate substitute, and he
expects every republican senator to favor it
either by his vote or his pair. However,
the republican senators have been look
ing over the democratic side of
the chamber since Senators Quay
and Cameron began to talk In
doubtful tones about their votes, and now
claim that if the necessity arises, they can
get enough democratic woes to pass the sub
stitute. Senator Cameron, who returned
last night from Philadelphia, has not in
formed the republican managers as yet how
he proposes to vote. Neither has Senator
Quay. Neither of them propose to dodge,
however
