WHAT M'KINLEY SAYS.

of the result in Ohio, Governor Nc
Kinley today states that Lawrence L.
Neal. Democratic candidate for gov
ernor, was recognized as much as free
trader as he (McKi nley) advocates pr :
lection. In his opening speech in this
campaign at Newark, o., he not only
said his campaign would be fought on
the lines of the Chicago platform,
which had been incorporated into the
state platform on which he stood, but
also so clearly defined his position
boldly as free trader, that the two
candidates were recognized through
out the canvass as embodying in thei1
views this issue, which has never been
before SO distinctly presented to the
people. 1.-THE next day after Meals
speech at Newark, " says Governor Nc
Kinley, 81 accepted his Interpretation
of thesue as represented by us re-
spectively, and we fought it out on
that line"
Governor Mckinley said the returns
would speak more forcibly than he
was able to do and he knew nothing
he could add except heretofore cam
paigns had been conducted with com
plications of issues, but this time the
fight was conducted on protection,
with the leader of free trade clearly
defined in his position, and the tariff
issue fully presented at every meeting
of all parties in the canvass.
M'KINLEY's PLURALITY.
CINCINNATI, Nov. S.-Collation of
returns and estimates received here
from all but IA counties in Ohio give
Mckinley a.plurality of 26,51S.
THE RING OVERWHELMED.
BROOKLYN, Nov. 9.-The ring is
overwhelmed, with plurality of 3d.
600 for Shiern for moyor, and Kings
county completely routed by the
election of the entire Republican ticket.
Latest returns from the New Jersey
election only serve to increase the ma
jority of anti-race track men and en-
phasize the defeat of the ring which
has so long dominated the state, and
the race track men have elected seven
state senators and their opponents but
one. Nine Democratic senators fall
over and so do four Republicans, The
new state senate stands, Republicans
II, Democrats 10. In the state assem-
bly, the Republicans, or anti-race track
men have SO and the Democrats 81.
A clear working majority against the
race tracks in both branches of the
legislature means repeal of the race
track laws.
TWENTY THOUSAND MAJORITY.
NEW YORK, Nov. 8-Bartlett is
elected to the court of appeals by over
60. 900 plurality and the rest of the Re-
publican state ticket by 10000. The
state senate, now Democratic, will
have a Republican majority of six and
the assembly seven. In the constitu-
tional convention there will be 105
Republicans to 70 Democrats. In
the city of New York Tammany car
ries through the state and county
ticket.
CLEAN AND COMPLETE.
NEW YORK, Nov. Selection in this
state was clean and complete sweep
for the Republicans and every hour
only adds to the thoroughness of the
defeat suffered by the Democratic
party.
TOO SICK TO TALK.
ALBANY, Nov. 9.-This afternoon
Governor Flower said: 1.-THE senate is
Republican by four majority and the
state is lost. The Republicans have
carried the assembly. I don't care to
talk of the NATTER
MANY CAUSES IN ILLINOIS.
CAIoAGo, Nov. 8.-The defeat of the
Democrats here and the election of
Gary has been severe blow to Gov
ernor Altgeld, who directed the make
up of the Democratic ticket and threw
his entire influence against Gary. The
defeat, it is thought, has lessened Gov.
ernor Altgeld's chances for reelection.
There are many causes for the victory
of the Republican ticket here. The
influence of the murdered mayor is
felt, and his avowed antagonistism to-
ward Altgeld, with whom he compet-
ed for seat in the United States con-
gress, is thought to have made votes
for Gary The Irish-Ameri-
can vote, too. figured large.
| ly in the election and wat cast
heavily for Gary and the Republicans.
Then, too, the German Lutherans APP
pear to have abandoned, for the time
being, their alliance to the Democrats
in the school issue. The strong senti'
ment against anarchists which exists
throughout the city was also a factor
although the latter element did not
figure so largely as expected by many
1t is thought that Gary, who, al
though Democrat, was placed on the
Republican ballot materially aided
his ticket, and some Democrats claim
that had he not been nominated by
the Republicans, the result might after
all have been a Democratic victory.
SOCIALISTS NOT WANTED.
CHICAGO, Nov. S.-A revision today
of election returns show that the Re-
publicans elected the entire Judicial
ticket with the possible exception o.
Kraft, with Judge Gary in the lead
Kraft was identified to some extend il
the socialist movement. The Repub-
licans show general gains throughout
the city and county over the presiden-
tial vote last year. In the fight fol
county commissioners tho result i:
somewhat in doubt and it may require
an official count to decide which party
is in the lead. 1t is apparent, how.
