the Next Congress.
MILWAUKEE, Nov. 1O.-Notwithstand-
ing the fact that returns from the in
terror of the state are slow in coming
in, enough is known to make it clear
that George w. Peck will succeed him
self as governor of Wisconsin, and that
he will be supported by Democratic
legislature. This IS claimed by the
Democratic State Central Committee,
and is practically conceded by the Re-
publicans, together with the defeat OF
the entire state ticket. Opinions dli1er
as yet as to the complexion OF the
next legislature, but Chairman Wall
figures that the legislature would
be composed as follows: Assembly,
Democrats, So; Republicans, IS; Senate,
Democrats %; Republicans s. This
gives Democratic majority of q on
joint ballot. Following are the Demo-
cratic senators of whose elections
Chairman Wall has received assurance:
Second District, r. J. Mcclellan, De.
pere; Fourth District, j. w. Murphy,
Milwaukee; Sixth District, Oscar Alt
peter, Milwaukee; Eighth District,
Michael kruszka, Milwaukee; Twelfth
District, Neal Brown, Wausau; Four
teenth District, Dana E. Wescott,
Shawano; ElghtC enth District, s. NJ.
Smead, Fond du Lac; Twentieth Dis
trict, D. T. Phalen, Sheboygan; Twen-
ty~second District William Kennedy,
Appleton; Twenty-sixth District, r. NJ.

NEW YORK, Nov. 10.-The Democrats
have elected their national ticket, and
Cleveland will be the next occupant OF the
White House. The Southern states which
were counted on tor the Democracy have
held their own, and aided by New York,
Indiana, Illinois, COnnectlcut, Wisconsin,
ana seven electoral votes from Michigan,
all OF which are conceded by the Repub-
leans, all doubt as to the results dlspelled.

of the different states in detail.
$4,000 to $4,000 plurality. Not only did
the vote in New YORK City and brooklyn
increase, but the Democrats made gains
throughout the interior with but few cx-
ceptions. According to the New York
Tribune the state is Democratic by not
cratic Assembly. New Jersey has prob
ably gone for Cleveland by from
5000 to 5000, but kean (Rep.)
claims his election as governor. Connec-
ticut is Democratic by plurality OF not
less than 1000 on the presidential ticket,
legislature. Massachusetts, it is claimed
by the Tribune, has chosen Harrison
electors, and probably Republican state
ticket, thus displacing Gov. Russell. All
the rest of New England is Republican. In
Republican headquarters it is still held I'M
certain whether or not the sold
hand, the sun holds that MI.
Cleveland has carried the solid South, and
of the SO-called doubtful states, he carries
Connecticut, 1000 majority or more; New
York state by $4,000; New Jersey By o,Ouo;
Delaware by more than 1000; Indiana by
about 5000; Illinois by 10000; Wisconsin

the states of Colorado, Idaho, Nevada AM
Nebraska and probably South Dakota.
Tue Sun claims also that the House OF
Representatives. will have Democratic
majority of more than 100, and that Werts.
Democratic candidate for gOve4nor CT New
jersey, is elected by about 1900. The ics,-
islature of the state of New York is Demo
cratic, the House having been carried by a
majority OF IA, thus lnsurlng the election
of Democratic senator in place of Mr..
Hiscock. Mr.. Cleveland,s plurality in
New York City and County, was 16,94I, or
3,06S more than that of Mayor-electt
Thomas F. Gilrov. The entire city and
county ticket OF the Democrats is elected.
Every assemblyman except one out OF the
thirty in the city AMI county is elected.
The solitary one is a County Democrat
who was Endorsed by the Repuhllcan3
Every aldermanlc candidate IS elected.
Every congressman is elected Mr.. Cleve-
lands plurality was greater than Grants
COSTS over Seymour in 1865, but Mayor

greatest majority secured by a New York
may0rality cand date in tWenty-tour years,
that of 54,274 in 1Sts .,
The returns from Illinois are. still in
complete, but all indications point to the
carving of the state by Cleveland ana
Stevenson by a plurality of from 5000 to
10000. The entire Democratic state ticket
is also elected and the Democrats nave
majority of the congressional delegatlcii
and have apparently gained control or

The Republicans, while generaliy CON
cedinc the state to Cleveland ana the Dem

gain. 1889; net Republican gain, l,5ll:
This shows an average Republican gam OF
s is votes to the precinct. In order to
carry the state the gain to the precinct
must be 625. The state IS very close. Inc
best information Obtainable at the time IS
that the state has gone Democratic by
from 5000 to 1900, that the Democrats
have elected 10 out OF II members of Con
gress, a Republican gain of one in the
Tenth District, and that the legislature is
safely Democratic in both branches.
The vote in Connecticut, with one town
missing, gives Cleveland 81, 4OS; Harrison
Il. $3.50: Weaver, 1894; scattering, 1.COO.
Clevelands plurality, SAY. -Four years
