in Chicago caused by the growth of foreign
population in that city.
Ohio.

Ohio.
The news from Ohio is greater sur
prise in some RESPECTS than that from Hi
nois. The Democrats made no claims to
having carried the state until Wednesday
night, when it was discovered that the
drift of the returns indicated a small pu-
ralty for their electoral ticket. They now
claim the state by 2OOO, and the Republi-
cans concede the probability. that it has
gone for Cleveland. Twelve Democratic
congressman out of u are claimed.
California.
Another surprise is the result of the
election in California where the indications
are that an unexpected Democratic plural
ity of 1000 in San Francisco has given the
state to that party No definite figures
can yet be given. Weaver vote was some
what larger than was estimated by the
managers of both the leading political par
ties, and cut into the Republicans in some
counties much heavier than it did into the
Democratic strength. The legislature is
still in doubt, but will probably be Repub-
lican on Joint ballot
wisconsin.
The Republicans admit the election of
Peck, Democrat, for governor by a small
plurality, and that the electoral vote goes
to Cleveland Four of the ten congress
men are probably Republicans. The legis-
lature is Democratic, and Democrat will
succeed United States Senator Sawyer.
Democratic Chairman Wall says that Cleve-
land and Peck have about 1900 majority.
Returns are incomplete but no material
change from these figures is looked for.
Michigan.
The electoral delegation is divided as was
anticipated, and the result is in doubt.
The Republicans claim nine of the ii cleo
toral votes, while the Democrats concede
them only eight. Rich, the Republican
candidate for governor is elected by 10,
600 majority. Both parties claim the leg
islature.
Kansas.
The. Peoples party are claiming another
landslide in this state. Returns at the Re-
publican headquarters are incomplete but
"a
lican vote and point to the election of Lew
elling, fusionist, for governor, and the
Weaver electors. Jerry Simpson was first
reported among the slain, but later indca-
tions are that he may have been reelected
to Congress.
Colorado.
Weaver has swept Colorado from one
end to the other. His plurality will be
nearly 10000. Waite, the populist cahdi-
date for governor, is apparently elected.
Additional returns only tend to pile up the
populist majority, with Waite, populst
candidate for governor, probably 1000 votes
behind his ticket. The populists will have
control of the lower house of the legislature
and probably the senate.
Nebraska.
The first indications were that Nebraska
had gone Democratic, but later returns
from As of the 80 counties indicate that
Harrison has carried the state by a slight
plurality. The Democrats admit the cleo
tion of Crounse, Republican, for governor,
by 5000 to 10000.
West Virginia.
The returns are very much mixed and
it will probably he several days before the
result is finally known. While the returns
have been generally favorable to the Re
publcans, the indications are that the
state has gone for Cleveland by plurality
not exceeding 5000 to 4OO0
New Hampshire.
The state has gone more strongly Repub-
lican than was anticipated The returns
indicate plurality of 23O0 for Harrison,
and the probable election of Smith, the
Republican candidate for governor, by the
people 1t is probable that Henry W.
Blair is elected to Congress from the First
district by 1900 to 1900. In the Second
district, Baker, Republican, by large gains
in Cheshire and Coos counties, is ahead of
Parker, Democrat, by 500 The Republic
cans have a majority of 40 to 80 in the
legislature.
