| CLEAN SWEEP IN MICHIGAN.
DETROIT, Mich, Nov. The next
Legislature of Michigan will be COM
posed entirely Of Republicans. The
Republican State central com Dittee
has received full returns from every
Representative and Senatorial district
ia the State and announce positively
this afternoon that the Republic ans
have been elected in every district.
This result Is entirely unex Dected. It
was not figured on; its tff5ct on the
United States Senatorial succession
cannot yet be determined. It looks as
| if every county has elected their Rs,
publican ticket as we'll as giving d
plurality on the State ticket. The
piuraltties in all Congressional districts
are pillDg up and the smallest majority
received by Republican candidate
will be 3,OO0.. .'

indicate that the Republicans will
capture every one OF the thirteen Con.
gressional districts by clean majority.
rhe only one in doubt Is 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 beaten and 10 the
third Tracewell (Rep.} has pulled
through by at least 1900. In the sixth
Johnson Is elected without q doubt
and In the seventh Henry has defeated
Bynum by at least 2OOG 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 State show that Indiana mas gone
Republican by about 5000 majority,
perhaps $4,000, the Legislature being
surely Republican.

COMPLETE STAMPEDE.
| NEW YORK, Nov. Mot since the
war times have Republicans swept the
Eastern States as they did at the polls

State and in no city have Democrats
