at $3.50 o'clock are that Mcintyre, Republic

majority over Waite, Populist. The Times

(Arapahoe) county will be 10000, and that

beaten by Shafrotb, Republican, for Con-
gress in the First district. Bell Populist,
may defeat Bowen in the Second district,
but his majority of 1900 two years ago
will be greatly reduced.
Dispatches from all parts of the State
say a very full vote was polled, and In the
cities fully as many women voted as men.
The polls did not close until o'clock, and
it will be very late before any definite fig
ures are received. In Denver and suburbs
about IS per cent. of the registered vote
was cast. Women worked earnestly at the
polls all day for the success Of the Repub-
lican ticket, and the result is largely due
to their efforts.
Republicans at midnight claim the cleo
plurality. The Populists do not concede
the defeat of Waite. although they admit
that this (Arapahoe) county will give a
Republican majority of $500 on. the head

THE ENEMY ROUTED.
Comment of the New York Press
the Tidal Wave.


NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-The Advertiser will
tomorrow say: "The battle is over. The
enemy is routed. Republicanism has tri-
umphed- Protection will still protect, and
Tammany is overthrown. The victory means
that the great American people have been
aroused, and have shown themselves
worthy of their glorious heritage. 1t means
the death beyond all possibility of resuci-
tation of that party which for forty years
has never had power without showing an
increased capacity for laundering and in
competency. Finally, the victory means
that from the lakes to the gulf and from
the Atlantic to the Pacific we should give
tnanks Tor the downfall Of the Democratic
party and all ii stands for, and the tri-
umph of protection. law, order. good gov
efnment ef fS Natio and all that makes for the glory
indeed dead. and it cannot be born again.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow"
tally: THE result in New York and through
out the country was never more in the
hands ma OF the people than it is In Amer
lea now. That was the moral of the over
whelming defeats sustained by the Harri-
son administration and 1t is the lesson

Democratic party of the future will be
OF the Democrats who. in behalf of party
principle, arrayed themselves yesterday
dSdiIlSt party ULYSSES VINO nave betrayed
or abandoned principles. Every Democrat
can feel gratified that, regardless of tenn
porary considerations of party, the people,
animated by Democratic instinct, have
slown themselves the governing power in
the country; that they have made it only
theaDparent how much greater they are
great men, than any autocrat, any Senate
or any machine. The people are in power
and they have shown it. That is what
ii means"
The Press will say: 1.-THE Republican
party has won the most sweeping triumph
since 1872. The elections of yesterday
cured TO the Republicans control of the
next House of Representatives and have
brought nearer the time when the Repub-
leans will again have a majority OF the
Senate. The Atlantic States have given
emphatic majorities for Republican candi-
dates, and the Empire State of New York
is once more in the Republican column by
a vote that shows that political revolu-
ton has taken place. The most extraor-
dinary and memorable triumph along the
line is the rescue of the city of New York
from Democratic Tammany rule. Yester-
day New York was shackled in fetters of
shame that held her in degrading subjec-
ton in the criminal conspiracy of Tam
many Hall. To-day she stands erect and
emancpated, the premier member of the
grand Republican sisterhood of States, no
longer under the confederate symbol OF
free trade and the black flag of Tammany,
but ranked henceforth with those loyal
commonweathS that stand for American
industrial independence in phalanx under
the stars and stripes"

O'clock the sun struggled out and the clouds
disappeared. There was. evidently, dispo-
sition to vote early. 1t was shortly after
O'Clock when TO the upper district of the
Ninth ward there walked a well built man
with hands thrust down deep In his over
coat pockets. AS he stepped into the poll

sons made way for him and one of the
inspectors said: Let Senator Hill vote"
Then somebody proposed a cheer for 'The
next Governor" and there was a hearty
hurrah. Senator Hill refused 10 take any
body's place in the line and waited his
turn. chatting pleasantly meanwhile with
those nearest him.

DELAY AT BROOKLYN.
Many Voters I'm Line When the Polls
Closed.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Brooklyns cleo
ton day was a quiet one That does not
mean that it was not busy election
There was probably never a greater anxiety
among voters of the city to get their bal
lets in the box. The Constitutional amend
ments caused intolerable delays in almost
every election district in the city. The
voters were in the polls waiting for them
to open and when the polls closed there
were still many citizens in line who did
not have opportunity TO cast their bal
lots. There was little for the police TO do
and few arrests for Illegal voting were
made. The Gravesend ele ction of last year
evidently had a most wholesome effect.
In many cases the whole set of constitu-
tional amendme nts ballots were cast aside
by voters who got tired of being sent back
in the booths to get things Strengthened
out The vote was full as possible
der the circumstances. Pastors we're not
generally used save in some of the wards
where there is large illite rate popula-
ton The board of election returns vas
called on to settle several knotty points.
The police arrangements were satisfactory
in the main.

ON NEWSPAPER ROW.
Scenes When the Election Of Morton
and Strong Were Bulletiued.

NEW YORK. Nov. s.-The scene on
Newspaper row at $50 tonight, when it was
conceded by the Democratic organs that
Morton had won the governorship and
Strong the mayoralty, was one of wild en-
thuslasm. When the newspaper bulletins
and stereopticons began to display the re-
turns about s O'Clock there were about
two thousand persons on Park row. but
during the following two hours the crowd
was augmented by a continuous stream of
people from the uptown districts. BY 8
O'Clock fully ten thousand people thronged
the thoroughfare, blocking the cars and
impeding the horse and cable car traffic.
When the concessions by the Democrats
were announced there seemed to be three
Republicans TO one Democrat present. The
assemblage was a very orderly one and il
seemed to be composed of a more respect
able class than that which usually visits
Park row on election nights. The Tam
many men, who were down town, had no
excuse to offer for their overwhelming de-
feat and one Of the leaders said This

the Democratic party in this city and it

ST. PAUL, MINI. Nov. e.-At midnight IL

Morrill, Chosen Governor In Kansas

Topeka, Kan, Nov. 7.-Returns re-

precinct shows decided Republican gains
The same ratio of gain that has been re-

Pennsylvanin Elects Hastings by
About 100000.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. $3.50 a.
m.-Returns from the entire State give
Hastings an estimated plurality Of 212,6si,
the greatest Republican majority ever
achieved in this State. In 1892 Harrison's
plurality in Pennsylvania was 63747, and
Hastings's gain over this vote is 1887.
Complete returns will undoubtedly swell
Hastings's plurality above 24O.OOO as many
of the correspondents were very sconserva-
tive in their estimates. Not one county
in the State showed Democratic gain.
Returns were necessarily late because of
the heavy vote polled.
Following is the total vote in this city:
Hastings, Rep, 1865; Sngerly, DEM. "a
