ST. LOUIS, Nov. Sat 10 o'clock last
night the state democratic committee
announced the following as the Mis-
souri, congressional delegation:
First district, William H. Hatch.
dem; Second, U. S. Hall, dem.; Third,
A. M. Dockery, DEM; Fifth J. G. Tars-
ney, dem; Seventh, John 7. Heard,
dem; Eighth, R. P. Bland, dem, Ninth,

Fourth, G. c. Crother, rep; Sixth, R.
E. Lewis, rep; Tenth, R. Bartholdt,
rep; Eleventh, Charles F. Joy, rep;
Fifteenth, c. G. Burton, rep. There
will be contests in the First, Eleventh
and Twelfth districts.
Van Horn, rep, at Kansas City, ad-
mits that he is beaten by Tarsney on
the face OF the returns, but says he will
contest in the house. Some of the
counties, such as Bollinger, democratic
for twenty years, elected the full re-
publican ticket by indisputable plu-
ralities. An irregularity discovered in
st. Joseph surely gives the republicans
the representatives and senators and
possibly turns over congressional
chair to that party.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. s.-From the latest
official returns received from S5 coun-
ties in Missouri republican gains of 49,
600 is shown and that the election of
their entire state ticket by plurality
of at least 10, 900 is assured.

majority in the Third congressional

Careful estimates of the sixty-seven

KILLED IN A COLLISION.


A Limited Express on the b. & O. Road
Collides With "a Fast Freight-six Lives
Lost.
PITTsBUBG, Nov. S.-A disastrous col
lision between passenger and freight
train, resulting in the loss of six lives,
occurred at Rosen steel siding, 103
miles east of Pittsburg, on the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad, at $40 o'clock
last evening. The killed are:
Engineer Henry Bush. Of the passenger train.
HIS fireman, Mccarthy.
Engineer Browning, OF the freight train.
Brakeman Manning, Of the freight train.
Two mail clerks, names not known.
The trains wrecked were the Chicago
express No. 8, westbound, and the first
section Of eastbound train No. "a, fast
stock train. The freight train had q
time order 70 reach Pine Grove against
the passenger Engineer Bush disre-
garded this order and this caused the
accident. J. L. Pierce and J. G. De-
Grains, two other mail clerks, were in
jured, The railroad officials here could
not learn the names Of the dead postal
clerks None OF the passengers were
injured.
A Connellsville special says that ten
or twelve passengers are reported
KILLED at Rosen steel siding on the b. 4
o. railroad, and that the first coach
was smashed to splinters and later the
wreck took fire. The special also states
that the dead bedies Of the rAilroad
employees had not been removed up to
midnight
All traffic was completely blockaded
and trains were running via Grafton
and Fairmont. A wreclSing train with.
surgeons are on the ground and Super
intendent Cutter left for the scene of
the disaster on special train. Super
intendent Patton, of this city, stated
that as far as he could learn none of
the passengers were injured and this
is probably the case.

rality in the state is nearly 10000 All
Of the republican candidates for con-
gress were chosen except in the Ninth
district, where Fitzgerald, DEM, has
1880 plurality. The legislature is
overwhelmingly republican.
The state of Massachusetts, with ten
small towns missing, gives Greenhalge
1s6,s73, Richardson s,1o4, Russell 1884,
246. Greenhalge's plurality, 63,es7.
The same cities and towns in 1893 gave

ted. Elliott, dem, is apparently elec.
ted in the First district, but his seat
will be contested by G. w. Murray,
colored republican, the sitting member.
In the Fourth district, Melton, rep,
will contest the election of Wilson, al
liance-dem. In the Seventh, johnson,
rep, will probably contest the seat of
Stokes, alliancedem. The majority is
overwhelmingly for Tillman and will
elect him to the United States senate.

KENTUCKY.

LEXINGTON, Nov. Slater returns
from the election in Kentucky cause
further surprise and show that the
landslide struck this state with greater
force than even the republicans be-
lieved possible. The congressional del
egation will stand six democrats and
five republicans-but the republicans
get the fifth member by carrying the
Third instead of the Seventh district.
Those elected according to present re-
turns are: First district, John X.

dy, dem; Third, w. G. Hunter, rep;

MARYLAND.

BALTIMORE, Nov. s.--one of the,gpe-
culiar things about the election in this
state is the fact that the democratic
counties which have secured the larg-
est share of the federal Offices have
gone republican. Carroll county,
which has the collector of customs, the
best Office in the state, the special dep
uty collector and large number of
minor Offices, went republican for the
first time since 1866. 1t is noticeable
also that the precinct in Howard conn
ty in which Senator Gorman votes and
resides, gave republican majority for
the first time in quarter OF century.

NEBRASKA.

OMAHA, Nov. S.-As near as can be
estimated the republicans in the state
legislature will have ninety-one out of
the 1873 votes. They will have major
ity in any case. In the First congress
sional district Jesse B. Strobe, rep, is
elected by at least 5000 plurality over
A. H. Weir, dem. pop, he succeeding
w. j. Bryan, dem. The Second district
shows the election of D. H. Mercer,
rep, by plurality of $500 over ex-
Gov. Boyd, dem. In the Third district
George D. Meiklejohn, rep, is re-
elected by 1850 plurality. On governor,
the most careful estimates, based on
partial returns indicate that Majors
will have about 1000 votes more than
Holcomb, the democratic-populist fus-
ion candidate.

CALIFORNIA.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. S.-There seems
to be no doubt but that California has
gone democratic as far as the govern
orship is concerned. But the Golden
state will probably elect republican
lieutenant governor, most of the other
state officers, an almost solid republic
an congressional delegation and the
Legislature which will be republican on
joint ballot. Chairman Cornwall, of
the republican state committee, is still
hopeful that Estee will bring large
enough vote from the country to over
come Budd's plurality in San Francisco,
but admits that the returns fail to in
dicate such desideratum.

ILLINOIS.

CHICAGO, Nov. Slate returns show
that the republicans have elected their
state ticket by plurality of at least
10000. Cook county goes republican
by majorities ranging from $4,000 to
10000. The new legislature will be re-
publican in both branches by major
ity OF from 25 to 40 on joint ballot.
This practically insures the. reelection
OF Cullom to the United States sena-
tor. For congress the republicans have
captured twenty and possibly twenty
one OF the twenty-five districts. In
the Sixteenth district, f. E. Donnelly,
DEM, defeated Gen. j. l. Rennicker by
small majority. The Third district
is still in doubt and the result will not
be definitely known until the official
count is made.
