STRIKES IN THIS STATE are greatly on
the decrease. A report of the strikes
in Pennsylvania IN 1892 has been is
sued from the office of the Secretary of
Internal Affairs by Alfred S. Bolles,
Chief of the Bureau of Industrial
Statistics. Not including the strike of
the employees of the Carnegie Steel
Company, at Homestead, there were
only 26 strikes during the year, a much
smaller number than usual. OF these
one was by the emyloyes of railroad
company, 13 by the employees engaged
in the iron and steel industries, two
by employees in cigar manufactures,
four by employees in textile manufact-
cries. There was one brewery stril e;
one in cooper age works, two in the
tile works and lockout by coal opera
tors. Eleven of these occurred in
Philadelphia and four in Pittsburg
The whole number of persons engaged
in the strikes was 4,2O8, and the num-
bee involved 7,4l4, Only three strikes
succeeded, four partly so, while the
others failed.

Dick places McKinley's plurality this
morning at $4,000 Of the 900 tele-
grams of congratuIation received by
Mckinley, more than 400 connect his

lation came in the mail this morning.
The Governor is being besieged by
mail and telegraph to speak
at ratification meetings in this
state, but it is said in his behalf that he
will not attend any since he cannot go
to all of them. There is story current
here that delegation of 500 people are
coming from Indianapolis to congratu
late the Governor in person. Edmund
Morton Smith, secretary of the Repub

writes to Gov Mckinley that when the
roll is called in the next national Re-

leads the roll will cast the vote of her
delegation solid for Mckinley. Hemp

PARTY LEADERS ARE STUNNED.

Republicans Expected Victory but Were
Surprised at It's Unexpected Range.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 8.-The re-
suit Of the election has been received
with surprise by all political parties
here. The unexpected happened in SO
many instances that in no case were the
predictions of Democrats, Republicans
or POpulists fully verified. The chief
surprise of the Democrats arises not
from the fact that they were defeated
but that the defeat was SO general in all
the doubtful states and the Republican
majority SO overwhelming. A gain of
comfort is accorded them in the de-
feat of the Populists in Virginia and
the election of O'FerraIl to the
governorship, but the blows have
been SO crushing in the states of Ohio,
New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey
and Iowa that even the success
in Virginia is hardly a triumph.
Expressions from nearly all the
prominent Democratic leaders at
the capitol showed that the Democrats
were prepared for defeat in those states
where the free coinage element is strong
and disappointment over the passage Of
the repeal bill is intense. But it was
hardly expected that in the sound
money states Of New York and Massa-
chusetts the Democratic maiorities of
the past would be so ruthlessly moved
down and the careful efforts of perfect
organization avail SO little. Despite
this. however, all the prominent Demo
cratic leaders unite in ascribing the
general defeat throughout the country
to two causes: The dissatisfaction of
the agricultural elements over the
financial question and the widespread
apathy Of disappointed office-seekers
who have failed to realize the fruits Of
the last Democratic victory.

M'KINLEY In '96.
That Is the Ohio Interpretation of the
Victory In That State.

FiCJ0ty III IlldG OGdb5,
COLUMBUS, O., Nov. S.-With Repub-
Iican majority of between 10000 and 75,-
600 as endorsement of protection and
protection principles, enthusiastic Re-
publicans of the Buckeye state have
named Gov William Mckinley as their
choice for the Republican presidential
nomination in the next national cam
paign. Mckinley is elected governor
by majority that even his most ardent
admirers did not look for, and the en-
tire state ticket shares in this glory; the
legislature is Republican il both
branches; county tickets have been car
RED IN on the tide; and all
III all the victory is the
most notable in the history
Of the Republican party in Ohio. Ham
alton County, the seat of the Republican
opposition to Gov Mckinley, not only
held It's own in a Republican sense, but
made heavy gains. With one third of
the county heard from, the chairman of
the Republican committee telegraphed
State Chairman Dick that a net Repub-
ican gain of 700 over the vote of two
years ago had been reported. Two
years ago Mckinley carried Hamilton
County by 5000. Franklin County
Democratic stronghold, whose seat is the
state capital, showed phenomenal he
publican gains, indicating that Nc
kinley had carried the coun-
ty, and that most of the Re-
publican county ticket had for the first
time been elected. At Il o'clock it was
so certain that an overwhelming ma
-jority had been achieved that the head
quarters were deserted, their occupants
joining the jubilant populace. Every
public hall in the city was secured by
the committee and Immediately filled
by Republicans who listened to ratifca
ton speeches by such eminent speakers
as Congressman Boutelle and Dollivar,
Congressman Horn, Chairman Dick
and others. each and every one of
whom predicted the nomination of
Maj. Mckinley for the presidency in
1896. The public caught on quickly, and
from midnight until sunrise hosts
tramped the streets shouting "McK1n-
lev in '96.''

CROWDS SEE THE BIG PARADE.
The Newly-elected Lord Mayor Installed
in Office with Great Pomp.

The Newly lie cted Lord Mayor III stalled
in Office with Great Pomp.
LONDON, Nov. 9.-The annual circus
provided by the city of London on the
occasion of the installation of the new
lord mayor was witnessed by tens
OF thousands of people to-day.
Aid. George Robert Tyler, representing
the Queenhithe Ward, is the new chief
magistrate of the city, and assumed the
reins of office with all the pomp and
ceremony attendant upon such pro-
ceeding, to the disgust of the many
thousands of unemployed people in
London who were of the opinion thatthe
money spent on such a useless parade
might have been more beneficially used
in providing assistance for the families
of the starving poor of London. Then
again the terrible distress existing in
the coal regions was recalled, and it is
not to be wondered at that several
of the most audacious spectators actually
made show of kissing the procession,
which outbursts of feeling were prompt
ly smothered by the public who SO dear
ly love a lord mayors show. The usual
circus programme formed a great at
traction, however, and business along
pended from early morning until the
close of exhibition of municipal stupid
lty.
The morning was bright for London
morning; that is, the sun made desper-
ate efforts to shine through the mixture
of fog and smoke which always hovers
over the metropolis on the Thames.
The weather was quite cold for this
time of the year, causing the airily clad
girls upon the various symbolical
cars to shiver with the cold
until their faces were almost
blue and causing them to present
plnched-up appearance which was posi-
lively distressing to behold. So chilly
did the symbolical damsels appear that
many young men of jocular turn of
mind at the various halts made by the
procession as it wendell it's way to the
city, offered their listers to the
shivering girls, and there is no doubt
that these garments would have been
thankfully accepted had it not been for
the fact that a goddess can hardly be
expected to wear an Inverness cape.
One of the features Of the cars was an ac-
curate and elaborate model of the new
tower bridge which was really very
attractive piece of work.
Ihe new lord mayor succeeds Stuart
hnll, IN whose election more than
ordinary interest was taken in view of
the fact that he is Roman Catholic and
refused to promise to conform to some
of the observances of Professionalism
incident to the office of lord mayor,
and an energetic attempt was made
to keep him out of office. Lord Mayor
Tyler was born in 1885 and is the son of
former alderman of the corporation of
the city of London. The new lord
mayor became a member Of the corpo-
ration in 1877 and was appointed an
alderman ten years afterwards.

WEEKS IN SING SING.
The Superior EmbezzI0r Begins His Ten
Years Term.

New YORK, Nov. 9.-Lawyer Francis
II. Weeks, the self-confessed embezzIer
whose extradition from Costa Rica ex-
cited so much talk, was to-day taken to
Sing Sing to serve out his sentence of
ten years imprisonment. Weeks rest

s o'clock this morning he started in
charge of a deputy sheriff for the prison
