OHIO.
COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 5.-Early returns
from nearly every section of the State
indicate Republican victory by major
tiles ranging from 1000 to 5000. There
was much more interest centered in the
Congressional campaign than in the
State contest. The Democratic Legisla-
ture last winter so gerrymandered the
State as to be morally certain of elect
ing majority of the Ohio delegation
in the national House from their party.
Base upon the returns of last fall, the
gerrymander showed that sixteen Dem
ocrats and five Republicans would be
elected.
The result of last falls election could
not be relied upon, however, as indicat-
ing the exact political status of the new
districts, aa there was factional fight
in the Republican party at the time.
None who correctly understood the
situation believed there would be a
delegation of sixteen to five. 1t now
looks as though the result would give
Democrats bare majority in the dele
CATION. The fight in the Sixteenth dis
trict between Major Mckinley, the au-
thor Of the tariff law, and ex-Lieuten-
ant Governor Warwick has attracted ma
tional interest. No other district in thh
United States has been watched more
closely than McKinley's. With ma
jority of nearly $500 in favor of War
wick, is has been generally held that
McKinley's defeat was inevitable, but
the majority of Warwick, as claimed by
the Democrats, has been slowly drop
ping down until late Tuesday, before
the count, they claimed his election by
600.
Four hundred and seventy precincts
outside of Cincinnati give Ryan 72, ,119,
Cromley 7O,00l, which shows q Repub-
lican gain of 3,227. Cincinnati will
swell the Republican gain to more than
10000. The Republican State Execu-
tive Committee received a telegram
from the home of Major Mckinley at
ten o'clock stating that he has carried
the city of Canton by 800 and Stark
County by roo majority. His own ward
showed Republican gain of 3S5 and the
Democrats of his district are demoral-
lied over the reselt The Republican
Congressional Committee claim McKin-
ley's election by 500 majority.
The total vote in Hamilton County,
with seven precincts missing, gives
Ryan. for Secretary of State, S7,934;
Cromley, 29674. All but one precinct
gives Ryan IS, SIS, Cromley 80, 623 First
Congressional district, Storer, Rep,
16,773; Cosgrove, l4,53S. Second dis
trict, Caldwell, Rep, 81, ,723; Brown,
Dem, 14,111.
Returns from the Thirteenth Congress
sional district show that DUNCAN, Dem.,
is running considerably behind his
ticket
Two private kilograms have just been
received at the Republican headquar-
ters, which, if true, insure the election
of Mckinley. Ono of the kilograms
states that Wayne County gives McKin-
ley 900 majority, which shows change
of ,SO6 votes in his favor. The other
dispatch states that in IA precincts OF
Kinley made gain OF SIG votes. This
information has not yet been contra
dicted nor verified by official returns.
At two o'clock this morning an off,
cial telegram was received here an
nouncing that the Democratic Congress
sional Committee of McKinley's dis
trict concede his election by small ma
jority. The Democratic State Execu-
tive Committee received the same infor-
nation from another source and admit
they are afraid it is true.
At midnight it is evident that the en-
tire Republican State ticket is elected
by about Is, 900. Chairman Hahn at that
hour claimed it by 20, 900 and Chairman
Van Cleaf conceded it by l. 500 Neither
would make any estimates as to the
number of Congressman elected, though
Mr.. Hahn had messages from McKin-
leys district indicating his election and
from Fosters district ana Ashley's in
dicatiug that the result was close.
Donovan, DEM, is elected over Brig
ham, Rep. in the Sixth Congressional
