ELECTION RESULTS.
The Returns Show a Strongly 40
centuated Reversal

OF the Popular Verdict of Two Years Ago
The Lower House of the Next
Congress Will Have a BRUTAL"
Republican Majority.
Illinois Republican by Ninety Thousand
Cullom's Reelection Assured.
CHICAGO, Nov. Slate returns show
that the republicans have elected their
state ticket by a plurality of at least
10000. Cook county goes republican
by majorities ranging from $4,000 to
10000. The new legislature will be
republican in both branches by ma
jority of from 25 to 40 on joint ballot.
This practically insures the reelection
of CulIom to the United States senate.
For congress the republicans have
captured twenty and possibly twenty
one of the twenty-five districts. In
the sixteenth district F. D. Downing,
DEM, defeated Gen. J. /. Rinaker by
a small majority. The third district
is still in doubt, and the result will
not be definitely known until the Of
fetal count is made. The returns from
five precincts in this district are miss
ing. The incomplete returns give Bel
KNAPP, DEM, 160 ma ority over McGann,
dem. AS the missing precincts are
strongly democratic, it is possible that
McGann may pull through.
Not a Plank to Stand On In West Virginia.
WHEELING, w. Va, Nov s.-The
democrats haven't saved a plank from
the wreck in West Virginia. Returns
compiled from nonpartisan sources
show that the state senate will be a
ho
majority of 10 in the next house of del
egates, making possible the passage of
bills redistricting the state so that the
democrats will not gain the ascend
ency for years. These returns are Off
cial with one or two exceptions, and a
republican senator will certainly sue
coed Senator Camden.
The total of republican majorities in
the four districts is over 9,OOO William
L. Wilson is defeated by over 1000 in
the second district. This return is of
fetal, except from three small counties
that are estimated, and the result will
not be changed 100 votes by the later
figures. The republicans carried the
first district by over 1850, eIecting b.
Il. Dovener: the third by $500, electing
James III. Huling; the fourth by 1000,
electing Warren Miller.

[Signedl ANDREW B. HUMPHREY.
Senator Shoup Likely to Succeed Himself.
BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 7.-Definite re-
turns come in slowly. The republican
state committee is satisfied that the
entire republican state and congress
sional tickets are elected. The legisla-
ture will be republican. Out of fifty
four in both houses the republicans
will have thirty-one at least, and pres
emit indications are that this plurality
will be increased.
Senator Shoup is in the field to sue
coed himself, and, as he is one of the
most popular men in the state, and as
his services in the Senate have been
satisfactory, he will probably be
elected. He has large following in
the state.

licans and seventeen democrats, with
one district, Shawnee county, in doubt.
Nine republican congressman have been
elected. The second district is still in
doubt, but probably Sauerspring, rep,
is elected by small plurality, making
a solid republican delegation in con-
