PECULIAR THING IN MARYLAND.
BALTINoE, Nov. 7.-One Of the
peculiar things about the election 10
this State yesterday is the fact that the
Democratic counties which have
secured the largest share of the Federal
offices bave gone Republican. Carroll
County, which has the Collector of Gus.
toms, the best offics 10 the State. the
special deputy collector and q large
number OF minor Offices, wentRepubll-
can for the list time s.pcg18s6. Har-
ford County which Jnas the Collector OF
IAternal Rsysude and more minor
places ths4 any other county in the
S:s2irsar,, ln suite Of the usual large Demo
cratic majority, went Republican. Sena-
tor Gibs3n's county. Talbot. which
has eighteen men IN good Federal oai
ces, also went Republican, and otner
counties with large numbers OF Off -s
to their credit went Republican, or
showed large falling off IN the Demo-
cratic vote. 1t Is noticeable also that
the precint in Howard County in which
German resides and votes gave ma
iority for the first time In quarter of
u century.

CLEAN SWEEP IN MICHIGAN.
DETROIT, Micc., Nov. 7-Ene next
Leglsialure of Mlcn;gAn slsl b5 COM
posed entirely Of Hspuo|icaDs. The
Republican Svaie csnCyal committee
nas received full returns from every
Representative and Senatorial district
In the State and announce pOslti vely
this afternoon that the Republicans
have been elected in every district.
THIS result is entirely unexpected. II
was not figured on; It's effect on the
United States Senatorial succession
cannot yet be determined. II looks as
if every county has elected their Re-
publican ticket az we'll as giving a
plurality on the State ticket. The
piaralities In all Congressional dis tricts
are pilipg up and the smallest majority
received by a Republican candidate
will be 5000.
HOLMAN STAYS AT HOME.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Eov. Ire.
turns received at Republican State
committee headquarters this morning
Indicate that the Republicans will
capture every one OF the thirteen Con.
sressional districts by clean majority.
The only one in doubt Ia the eleventh.
In the fourth watson has carried two
counties and the defeat OF Holman by
at least 500 seems sure. In the fifth
Cooper has been begten and Ia the
rhird Tracewell (Rep.) has pulled
through by at lessi 1900. In the sixth
johnson is elected without doubt
snd ia the seventh Henry has defeated
Bynum by at least 1000. The returns
from the other districts still meagre.
From the figures already received 1t Is
doubtful If the Democrats will capture
single Congressman. Returns from
the SCate show that Indiana mas gone
Republican by about $1,000 mai ority,
perhaps $1,000, the Legislature being
surely Republican.
NORTH CAROLINA DOUBTFUL.
RALEIGH, N. c., Nov. 7.-rhe State
judicial ticket is SO close that it will
require the official vote to decide. The
Legislature is in doubt. The Demo
Gratis hope for 1t, but make no claims
Populist and Republican leaders are
very confident. The situation looks
bad for the Democrats. Indications
are that the fusion ticket has defeated
the Democratic candidates in the First,
Fourth, Fifth, Seventh, Eighth and
Ninth Districts, making the Congress-
lonal delegation stand three Demo
Gratis, two Republicans and four Popu'
lists. The Democrats, however, are
still claiming the Seventh, Eighth and
Ninth.

| NEW YORK, Nov. Not since th'
war times have Republicans swept tt'
Eastern States as they did at the poll
yesterday. The size OF the victor.
grows as fuller returns come in. Ia N
