TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. THE repub-
licans claim a clean sweep in Kansas
Their returns show that Morrill, has
carried the state by at least 10000 plu-
rality. They also claim the election of
a majority of the legislature and the
seven congressman, admitting, howev-
er, that the Sixth district is close. In a
conversation with a correspondent
at 1:3O a. m. ]. L. Bristow, secreta-
ry of the republican state central
committee, said: 1.-The returns received
to this hour are meager, but every
township that has reported has shown
republican gains. Inmany places very
heavy gains. The poll of the commit
tee is being verified and we confidently
expect a plurality of not less than 3d.,
600 for Maj. Morrill,. If the same ratio
of gains keep up that is shown by the
precincts now reported the plurality
will run between 1000 and 40, 200, and
he will have majority of all votes
cast. We have made heavy gains in
the legislative districts and have elect
ed at least seventy-five members OF the
lower house. The indications are now
that we have elected the entire con
gressional delegation"
Chairman Leland, of the republican
state central committee at 1 O'Clock
said that the election of the entire
state ticket was assured by majority
of from 81, 900 to 1000. He claims the
election of seven of the eight repub
lican candidates for congress as abso
lutely certain and the prospects good
for the election of the others
The doubtful district is the Sixth
in which A. II. Ellis is the republican
candidate. Republicans have carried
Wyandotte county by 1000, net gair
of 1,7OO, and Leavenworth county by
1000, which is net gain of 1850
They have Shawnee county by 1000
