THE LID CONGRESS.
THE HOUSE TREMENDOUSLY DEMOCRATIC
THE SENATE REPUBLICAN.
, SAFE MAJORITY IN THE UPPER DRAyCH-A
FEW ADDITIONAL CHANGES IN THE
LIST OF REPRESENTATIVES,


Yesterdays dispatches indicate few more changes
in the makeup of the next House OF Representatives.
Many districts IL turns out, have been carried by
Democratic candidates by minute puralties trnlns
S TO have left the result naturally In for several
DAYS In the list Wisconsin District Clinton Bsbbift
fDem.) sees TO have defeated H. a. Cooper (Rep)
making the delegation from that State stand seven
IN two instead Of six to three. in Michigan, two
districts are still somewhat doubt, the With and
IXth General Cutchcon is probably elected in the
latter and Representative Bliss defeated in the former
Tho Michigan delegation will consequently stand
seven Democrats to four Republicans. In Illinois,
Representative Hill and Mr.. Rceder have been beaten
/, the With and XvIth districts by Lewis stewart
and Representative Fithsn. The Illinois delegation
will thus show fourteen Democratic and only six Re-
publican votes. The Republicans mako a gain Of ono
in Kentucky, electng Hill Kendall In the KIN
District In spite of the recent gerrymander Repre-
sentative Comstock loses the yth Minnesota District
10 Halvorcn, tho Farmers Alliance candidate, inoreas-
ing the strength Of the dlstincvey Farmers Alliance
members in the next House to eight. In the XXIVuh
Pennsylvania District Craig Dem.) has defeatcd
stewart QRep); but Hopkins has pulled through In tho
XvIth beating Elliott (Dem) so no change Is maze
In the relative strength OF the state delegation Both
sides claim the lst Arkansas District, and there Is
sill little doubt as To the result in two other
cases. The strength Of the parties in the next House
now seems to be as follows Democrats 220, kepub-
leans, "a; Farmers Alliance Members, g. The Dem'
ocratc plurality would therefore be 1873 and tho ma
iorty 1877. An apparent increase in the size OF the
democratic majority be made by counting the
successful Farmers Alliance candidates In the Demo-
cratic column. In the States OF Kansas, NEBRASKA
and Minnesota however, the Alliance made its fight
as distinct political organization and should have
the credit of having elected its nominees ndepend
emily OF both the old parties.
The following table shows the political complexion OF
the next Congress by States, as compared with that

COUNTY DEMOCRATS TALK OF UNION on Thu
BASIS CF CLEVELAND FOR PRESIDENT
Rumors were in circulation yesterday to the elect
THAT tic DISARMAMENT OF the County Democracy 10
seriously contemplated. There is nothing unusual In
this, because after every election at recent years
where Tammany Hall has been successful rporss
have been current that the AntTammany Democrats
lad become tired OF their opposition and were ready
TO swear allegiance to the victorious organization.
These rlimors were rife especially afer the County
Democracy defeats OF 1883 and 1889. Nothing hero
tofore has come of these premonitions Of disruption
however except the deserton Of few district leaders,
The present rumOr seems to have more upon which
to build than any of its predecessors leader OF no
less importance than Christopher c. Baldwin. tie pesl'
dent of the County Democracy County COMMITTEES,
is now found among those counseDg the dis'andmene
OF the organization. In answer TO question r-gsV'
ing the runos referred Mr. Baldwin said yesterday;
81 am of the opinion that there should be not more
than ono Democratic organization in the city.
should be in favor Of a union With Tammany 'iai
that organization can so broaden Itself umt UNION
of the two organizations would be possible
"TO what extent would y0a broaden the Ta'nmany
organization? :" Mr.. Baldwin was asked.
Il would make the choice Of Grover Cleveland the
tonchstone was the reply. If both organizations
would agree to support Mr.. Cleveland for President In
1899 one of the most harmonious OF unions could 70
effected on that basis"

the following reasons: She is the perman-

crossing of the greatest transcontinental
river and greatest transcOntinental rail-
road in the world; within twenty
