ulist, $3.50.
Mcconnell, republican, for governor,
S,197; Stevenson, democrat, 1851 Bal
lantine, populist, 5,4S5.
The vote on the rest of the republican
candidates runs a little higher than on
Wilson or Mcconnell. and the pluralities
also range 500 higher. Wilson's plural
ity will be close to $500, and the rest
over 5000

Objections to the Acceptance of Spokane
Bidders SWeDt AWay.

Olympia, Nov, "a representative of
the Northwest Construction Company,
an unsuccessful bidder for the capitol
contract, appeared before the commits
sion today to ascertain why they, as
lower bidders than Moffatt Bros, had
not been given the contract for the
foundation work. 1t appears, from the
records, that, as a matter OF fact. the
company is not, or was not, legally in
corporated, and therefore the commits
sion could not consider their proposal.
In bestowing the contract the commits
sioners took what they considered to be
the lowest responsible bidder. and had
good reasons for rejecting the few that
were lower than the Moffatts.The lat
ter are expected to arrive here tomor-
row and will close the contract with the
commission Monday.

SIX MORE SENATOR'S COMING.
Control of the Senate Depends Upon
Utah, Arizona and New Mexico.

Control Of the Senate Depends Upon
Utah, Arizona and New Mexico.
Washington, Nov "a point that has
been overlooked in computing the polit-
ical complexion of the next senate is
Athe admission of Utah with two sena-
tors. The act Of the last session of con-
gress admitting Utah, provides that in
March, 1895, the constitutional cOnven-
lon shall be held. On the first Tues
ay after the first Monday in
INOvember of that year, the
constitution is to be submitted to
the people and il ratified and found by
the president to be in accordance with
the act. he will issue a proclamation
admitting it as state. The act also
provides that the representative to the
Fifty-Fourth congress shall be elected
at the same time a vote is taken upon
the constitution: also that state officers
and a legislature shall be chosen, and
that II the constitution is ratified the
legislature shall Immediately meet and
elect two United States senators.
AS there is about a month from the
time election is held until the Fifty
Fourth congress meets, there will be
ample time to have all the formalitie:
complied with and Utah proclaimed a
state in time for its senator's and rep
resentatives to participate in the or
ganiZation of the next congress. This
would make in all 80 senators and, as
the next senate now stands, the politics
Of Utah senators would cut an impor-
tant figure.
Another probability which arises is
the admission of both New Mexico and
Arizona, which may be accomplished in
time so that four more senators would
participate In the organization Of the
next senate. Bills have already passed
the house for the admission of both of
these territories. The senate commit
tee on territories have reported them
favOrably to the senate and they are
now on the calendar. Senators Of both
parties have been urging their passage.
1t is. therefore, quite likely that the
battle for control of the senate will yet
be fought out in Utah, New Mexico
and Arizona next year. The admis-
sion Of these new states would make a
total of "a senators and any party to
control would need 48 for a majority.
With the vice president the democrats
could control the senate with AZ sem
atOrs.

Press his views on the result Of Tues
days election, r. p. Bland stated that
he was so overwhelmed with the un-
expected nature Of the returns from all
parts of the country that he was not pre-
pared to give an opinion for publication
Of the causes which led to the landslide.
He attributes his own defeat, however,
very largely to Over-cOnf1dence among
political friends in the democratic coun-
ties resulting in a dangerous falling off
in the democratic vote. He takes defeat
philosophically, and is of the opinion
that the republican victory will prove
valuable lesson to Missouri democrats.
Additional returns received reduce
Hubbard's supposed plurality of 600
over Bland to 10, number so small
that it will require an official vote to
determine the result.
TEXAS GROWS POPULISTIC.
Dallas, Tex, Nov. 9.-Not more than a
third of the vote of the state has been
reported, but enough is known to pre-
dict the success of CulbersOn, demo-
crat, for governor by 10000 plurality.
He runs 10000 to 1900 behind the bal
ance of the state ticket. The demo-
eight of the - districts. namely: First,
Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth,
Tenth, Eleventh. In the Twelfth,
Noonan, rep, has from 1000 to 1000
plurality. In the Thirteenth, Gilliland,
pop, will probably be elected. In the
Sixth district an official count will be
necessary to determine between Abbott,
DEM, and Kerby, pop. The same is
true OF PendletOn, dem., and Barber
pop. in the Seventh, and Bell, DEM,
and Jenkins, pop, in the Eighth, with
the chances slightly favoring the dem
ocrats in all three districts.
ALABAMA OFFICIALS.
Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 9.-0ficial re-
turns from Alabama show the election
of the following congressman: First,
Clark, DEM; Second, Stallings, dem. :;
Third, Harrison, DEM; Fourth, Rob-
binson, dem.; Fifth, Cobb, dem.; Sixth
Bankhead, DEM; Seventh, Howard
pop; Eighth, Wheeler, dem.; Ninth
Underwood, dem. Contests will be
filed by Robinson in the Third and
Goodwin in the Fifth, populists, and w.
F. Aldrich in the Fourth and T. H.
Aldrich in the Ninth, republicans.

New York, Nov. THE Netherlands
American line steamer Amsterdam ar
rived this morning from Rotterdam af-
ter a most tempestuous voyage. She

ming and heavy rain. st. Elmo's fire was
seen at the mastheads for fully Is min
utes. The vessel received no damage.

THE o. R. & N. SIDE OF THE CASE
Union Pacific Officials Asked an Unfair
Division of Profits.

Division of Profits.
Portland, Or, Nov. "a leading Or
egon Railway & Navigation Company's
official, when interviewed today on the
subject Of the disagreement between
that road and the Union Pacific, said:
General Passenger Agent Lomax of
the Union Pacific in his statement yes
terday forgot a part of his story. He
assumes that the divisions prior to the
lease were just and equitable; as a
matter of fact they were wholly unsat-
isfactory, not being even a mileage pro-
rata. Mr.. LOmax has been SO used to
making divisions for by-roads that he
has forgotten that there is any other
way, but he means WE'LL"
The Oregon Railway & Navigation
Company wants the percentage Of divi-
sion basis to apply on all business,
whether it is greater or smaller than the
o. r. & N. local rate. They ask the same
division with the Union Pacific at Hunt
ington as they now receive from the
Great Northern at Spokane on the same
kind of a contract

MINNEAPOLIS, April 18.-The grand jury
is now investigating sensational charges
of blackmail, the witnesses being several
prominent bankers and capitalists. The
testimony given shows that Mrs. Chris
tina Miller, who has been a domestic in
several well known families, succeeded by
threats in securing $1,000 from II. G. Sidle,
president of the First National bank and
unsuccsssfully attempted to victimize
George A. Bracket, a well known capi-
talist, and A. L. Brice, real estate man.
Her scheme was to inveigle the men to
her room on pretense of discussing in
tended business transaction, when con-
federates would rush in, threaten a scan
dal, and demanded "hush money"
