possible ar0 even proOaD'S LD2t III the
Ashland district, heretofore the bull
Wark Of democracy, Will be represent
ed in the Fifty fourth Congress by Mr..
DENY, REPUBLICAN,. This will, how
ever, be due more TO diss ffectlon of
BTeckinridge Democrats than to any
growth of Republican sentiment. In
Louisiana Democratic plurslities have
be en- cut doWu to such 8n extent that
Republicans claim two Coagressmen,
whether upon good grounds or not the
official count will determine.
Tennessee is all mixed up. There
are cNI fljc;i1g CLAIMS ss 10 G;.re!ess-

tioDs in middle Iennessss~f can
hardly re doubted, hc5Gtver, that the
returns sla.--sdU@ sla.- SaU@ The election OF Tur-
7ney, Democrat, by Il safe plurality.
Down Ia Texas the Republicans for the
hrst time have mace fight with the
hope of winning, and as a result two
Congressional districts, the Tenth and
Twelfth are in doubt. In Missouri the
prevailing "orift" is manifest IN re-
lduced Democratic pluralitles for the
State ticket and claims of Republicans
THAT thev will gain one or two CoD-
gressmen.
Mississippi appears to have the lone
some distinction OF standing firm iC
the Democratic faith. She will elect
all candidates OF that party by praci
caIl7 normal maj1rittes.
Montana has not been heard from
other than in vague and 1ndehnl!e
way. The people of that State are To-
teres'ed in tie State capitol QUESTION
more than anything else, but such re-
turDs as have been received indicate
the election of Hunt, Republican, for
lSupreme Court Justice and Hartman
of the sane party for Congress.
This completes the list, snd l. IS 90
likely that the situstion utilized will
oe changed materially by tie official

WILSON'S DEFEAT CERTAIN.
Wheeling, W. Va, Nov7-Complete
returns from ter counties wilson's
district and estimated returns from
three others give Drayton 8 majority
of 2,l57. La'eT returns will not change
these figures much. La the First Dis
trict Howard, Democrat, loses the dis
trtct TO Dovner, Republican, by 5000
Republican congressman are elected
lin the Third and Fourrh Districts By
msjorities Of from 1900 to $50. Re
publlcans will have the Legislature on
loiat ballot by fifteen majority, Eik'n's
election to succeed Camden IN the Sen-
ate.
SOME COMFORT FROM CALIFORNIA.
Sau Francisco, CAL, Nov. 7.-Returns
received in this city up TO 8 8. N. do
not materially caange the figures sent
out at 8 o'clock this morning. Budd,
Democratic, for Governor still leads by
Ipearly 7OO0 votes IL San Francisco and
Chalr man Gould Of the Democratic
State Committee ciai1s that his plural
IIty will reach 12O0e, which will be suf-
Gcient 20 elect him, all indications poiot-
ing to a smaller vote for Estes Ia the
interior than YVES anticipated. Rspuou-
can managers concede the city to Budd,
but are hopeful that the coalJy vote
will be large enough 70 overcome Budd's
city plurality. Budd's associates III ne
State fight appear 70 have been sacri-
feed IN his interest. 1t Is apparent
that the Republicans have elected six
of ths seveo CJngrsssmen, Magutra IN
the Fourth District being the only De-.
mocrat who will represent California
in the next Congress. Returns indicate
that the next legislature Will bs Re-
publican by good majority.
| ENTIRELY REPUBLICAN.
st. Paul, Minn., Nov. 7.-Nelson,
Republican nominee for Governor, is
elected by majority of 10000. The
lentire Republican State ticket Is pro-
badly elected although the Republicans
concede that Biermann. Democratic
nominee for State Auditor, ran consid
Ierably ahead Of his ticket and 1t Is bare
ly possible he has won. Republicans
claim the election of all seven Congress,
men but indications point to the cleo:
ticn of Hall, Democrat, over Heatwole-
Republican, in the Third District.
ONE ONLY GOT IN.
| Phiiadelphia, Nov. 7-Latter re-
turns show that Kirkpatrick (Rep)
defeats Hart (Dem) in the Eight Con.
gressionsl District by 300 majority.
Complete returns have now been re-
ceived from every Congressional Dis
trict in the State, and the result is that
the Democrats-3iu have but one Of the
&c representatives from this State IN
the next House. The lonely Democrat
is Erdman of the Ninth, who Is re-
elected by a majority Of 1850. His
majority in 1892 was 10,9s8. In the
last House the Democrats had ten
members from Pennsylvania.
