ate-Gives Alabama Two Republicans.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-At 8 o'clock to- night MT. Babcock, chairman of the repub- lican congressiopa. committee, gave out the following statement.
 "Returns received up to this hour show that we have elected over 250 members, with several other states to hear from. We have carried the solid congressional dele- gations of twenty three states. We have carried the majority of the delegations in thirty states, thereby enabling us to elect a president in case the election should be thrown into the house. The returns indi- next senate by a majority of one to three, without counting the vote of North Caro- lina, which has undoubtedly republica legiSlature.'
 Chairman Babcock's figures show that the republicans have carried the following states by solid congressional delegations!
 Connecticut, Colorado, Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Now Jersey, North Da- kota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington, Wyoming, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
 The number of districts he claims the re- publicans carried ia the other states are: Illinois 21, Iowa 10, Kentucky 5, Maryland 4, Missouri 2, New York 29, North Caro- lima 8, Ohio 19, Pennsylvania 27, South Carolina 1, Tennessee 4, Texas 8, Virginia 2.

TENNESSEE.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 7.-Returns from yesterdays election are coming in slowly. The democratic executive commit. tee claims the re- election of Governor Tur. ney by about 5000 plurality. The repuoli- cans claim Evans is elected, but concede that his majority will be small. The official vote will be necessary to determine the re. suit. Snodgrass, democrat, for congress in the Third district is defeated by Brown, re- publican, by at least 1000 majority. Re- turns from the Eighth district indicate the re- election of Enloe, though this estimate may be changed by the official vote. The legislature is democratic.
 MEMPHIS, Tenn, Nov. 7.-Patterson, |, democrat, Tenth Congressional district, is elected by 4OO0 majority over Brown, re- publican.
 NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 7.-The re- Clay Evans, republican, has been elected governor over Peter Turney, democrat, the present incumbent. The democrats carried the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Ninth and Tenth. The republicans carried the First, Second and Third. One district, the Eighth, is still in doubt. Enloe, demo- crat, is leading Mccall, republican, by a small majority, but the indications are favorable to Mccall. The democrats will have a safe majority in the legislature, and the election of demooratic United sta.es senator is assured. The republicans claim that Evans for governor will have plu- rality of 5000.
 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. Nov. 7.-H. Clay Evans asserts positively that he is elected governor of this state, and that his plural itv will not be less than 5000. He Is being deluged with telegrams of congratulations from prominent republicans all over the country. Ths telegrams from Nashville from democratic headquarters assert that Evans is not elected and that Governor Turney has been reelected by less than 5000. Foster V. Brown, republican, de- feats Congressman Snodgrass in this dis trict by 5000 majority.

MISSOURI.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. Tt seems likely that Missouri has joined the republican ranks, Governor Stone comedies that the next leg islature will be republican. Every indica- tion is the repu ublicans have elected eight congressman, and that Hatch, Bland and Dockery are among the defeated. Vanhorn, republican, at Kansas City, admits that he is beaten by Tarsney ion the face of the returns, but says he will contest in the house. Three of the coun- ties, such as Billenger, democratic for twenty years, elected the full republican ' ticke. by indisputable pluralities. An ir- regularity in St. Joseph may turn over congressional chair to that party. Congressman Cookery acknowl- edged his defeat in the face of the unofficial returns. Hatch of the First district is de- feated by 0. M. Clark, republican, by a small plurality, but Chairman Cook does anot concede Batch's defeat.

CALIFORNIA.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7.-There seems to be no doubt this evening that California has gone democratic so far as the govern orship is concerned, but the republi- cans will probably elect @ lieutenant governor and most of the state off, cers. An almost solid republican congressional delegation is assured and the legislature will be republican on joint ballot. In the southern part of the state, usually strongly republican, the plurality has been reduced by the populist vote. Returns on the vote of governor from 713 precincts out of 2274 give Forestee 3S, ,S47, Budd 46, ,272; Webster, populist, 15, 142. Chairman Gould of the democratic state committee claims that Budd will be elected by plurality of 5000. For con gress, Loud, republican, and Mcguire, democrat, have been elected. Republicans surely win in the First, Second, Third, Filth, Sixth and Seventh districts. Re- publican committeeman aver hat the leg islature will be safely republican. Re- turns have progressed far enough to indi- cate the election of Sutro, populist, for mayor, by large plurality in the munic- ipal election. Mayor Elloit comedies his election.

TEXAS.

AUSTIN, Tex, Nov. 7.-In the Eleventh Congressional district Noonan, republican, has a majority over Houston, democrat. All the other districts go democratic.
 AUSTIN, Tex, Nov. 7.-Returns from this county and congressional district today have lowered the ardor of democrats. ;s Savers, democrat, carries this county by only 700, against 1922 two years ago. His home county, Bastrop, gives him 37, against 1903 two years ago. Full returns are yet to be received from seven counties inE the district. Democrats are claiming tho district tonight by 1500, while the re- publicans and populists assert that Kitchen will be elected by 1000 majority. In the Twelfth district the race is close betwe en houston, democrat, and Noonan, republi- oan, and it will require full returns to de- eide the contest and it may he several days before they are in. There is no doubt of the election of eleven democrats to con- gress. Cub-rson, democrat, for governor, is hndou btedly elected, but by greatly re- dnced vote. Popuiist gains have been -hehvy all over the state. The gain in this county was 2000 for ihe populists state ticket.
