Illinois.


CHICAGO. Nov. 10 Especially
plete returns from the city OF Chicago
and Cook county show that Cleveland
has carried Cook county by $4,000 plur-
atty, and that Altgold, tho Democratic
candidate for governor, has carried the
county by $1,000 plurality, SO that in the
great German Republican stronghold Of
the State Cleveland and Stevenson have
actually run ahead OF the German Dom
ocratic candidate for governor The
only explanation for this is that tho
statement by Washington IIessing, edi.
tor of the Stats Zeitung, to President.
elect Cleveland and Democratic national
committee that tho Germans OF Illinois
would support him and the entire Dem
ocratic ticket, has boon verified by tho
results.
The lead OF Cleveland over Altgeld is
probably due to the votes of certain
Democrats and independents who sup
ported the Democratic national ticket,
but who refused to vote for Altgeld for
governor on account of his socialistic
affiliations.
Returns from 655 country precincts
outside of Cook county, out of a total of
7lo, give Harrison & total vote of 126, Oso;
Cleveland, 1906 Harrison's plurality
in these precincts is 1908. This would
indicate that the official returns from
the whole State will show n Democratic
plurality of about 90, 600 for the national
ticket. The plurality for the State
ticket will not vary materially from
these figures.

In the Ninth district the vote ia close,
but j. w. Moon Republican, is prob
ably elected. The electors stand nine
Republicans to five Democrats, the lat
ter being from the eastern district at
large and the First, Second, Seventh
and Tenth districts. On Joint ballot
the Republicans will have a majority of
tho State legislature, insuring tho cleo
ton of Republican United States
Senator. Nothing definite can yet be
had as to the vote cast by the Prohibi
tionists and Populists.
Colorado
DENVER, Nov. 1O.-(SpeciaD-Re.
turns from forty-one counties in this
State, out Of fifty-ave, indicate that the
Democratic.P opulist ticket has elected
every candidate, from electors to con-
stable. This is the first time in the
history OF the State that the Republi.
cans have failed to elect a portion, If
not all, of their ticket. The Republi.
cans concede tho Democrats everything
with the exc caption OF Helm, for gov
ernor, who, they claim, has been saved
by five hundred votes. This hope, how
ever, will probably not DO realized.
