/ DEMOCRATIC WlNDFALL.
Big Harvest Of Premature
Electoral Apples.
on THE BRIDGE AT MIDNIGHT


The Associated Press returns al
midnight on Tuesday indicated Q
possible victory for Cleveland and
Stephenson. Congress will probably
BE- Democratic. and Harrison will
carry Oregon by small vote. Wea'
yer has carried number of states az
will be seen by the returns:
THE DOUBTFUL STATES.
NEW YORK, Nov. s-The total
vote for president gives Cleveland a
majority of 76, ,l25 in the city.
The Tribune says: Returns re-
ceived at the hour of writing are not
satisfactory to Republicans. 1t can
only be said the returns are not at
hand to justify the assertion that
several great Western states give
their electoral votes to Cleveland,
and without these votes he is still in
danger Of disappointment. The Re-
publicans failed to carry New York.
The machinery in the great Demo-
cratic cities turned out majorities
sufiicient to overpower the votes in
the Republican counties which APP
pear to have been down below sx-
pectAtions.
CHICAGO. Nov. 8.--As the returns
come In, 1t is conclusively demon
strated that Illinois today cast the
heaviest vote In It's history. All
parties appear to have polled practi-
cally their entire vote. At 10 p. m.
the probability is that Cleveland has
carried the state, and that Altgeld,
DEM, for governor, is elected by
1900 to $1,000 majority. Chicago
will give the Democratic ticket 30,-
600 majority, and the balance of
Cook county will reduce that to 25,-
600. At Republican headquarters
they do not claim over $1,000 for
Fifsr outside Of Cook county.
CHICAGO, Nov. 8.-Six hundred
and fifteen city precincts, Harrison
6l,SsS; Cleveland 1Ol, 1886; outside of
Cook county, 1856 township give Har-
rison 81, $50; Cleveland 1880.
CHICAGO, Nov. g. The Times
says In Illinois Cleveland has 10000
plurality, AItgeld $1,000. The Inter
Ocean does not concede Illinois to
the Democracy. but 1t will be very
close as to president and governor.
INDIANA.
One hundred and sixty precincts
give Harrison 1865; Cleveland 49,
8O7; the same precincts in 1890 gave
Trusler lS, ,449; Matthews 1869; net
Republican gain 1910.
Comparison not possible. Allen
county gives Cleveland 4,50O major
ity, q gain of 800 over 1873. Shelby
county gives Cleveland 500, a gain
Of 288 over 'Ss.
NEVADA.
RENO, Nov. Sit Is conceded by ,
al parties that Weaver carries Ne
yada by 1900, Newlands, silver
party, is elected to congress. The
result as to the legislature is not yet
certain, but 1t is generally believed l
that the silver party has majority,
which will insure the election of
Stewart TO the United States denate.
CALIFORNIA.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. S.--Com-
plete returns from flfty-one precincts
In seventy townships, California,
give Harrison l,479; Cleveland 1885,
Weaver l69. The same In 1888 gave
Harrison 1897; Cleveland l,S47.
The chairman Of the Republican
ntate central committee comedies !
that California has gone Democratic a
BY 7OOo plurality. {
MsQUoTED.
The chairman of the Republican
central committee claims he has !,
been misquoted. He comedies San /
Francisco city has gone Democratic n
BY 7O00 plurality, but claims the p
1tate may pull through. p
WYOMING. a
CHEYENNE. Wyo., Nov. 8.-Re- '
arms viii be late; both parties claim v
'hs state. h
Returns indefinite, but indicate
bat Harrison win carry the state.
Estimates from the returns re-
yed show Harrison carries the 4
Ate by q small majority. The
sgislative ticket is doubtful.
