WILSON HIMSELF BEATEN

Out of Sight.
ELAWARE DESERTS DEMOCRACY.
Maryland Republicans Secure Three Out
of Six congressman.

The earliest returns telegraphic and other
wise on Tuesday night indicated sweeping
Republican victory in nearly every one of the
forty one states in which elections were held
on that day, and which subsequent figures
have fully confirmed. A solid North and
West have answered the political demands OF
a South no longer solid, by the triumphant
election of Republican House of Represent
atives and the political revolution Of states
heretofore Democratic, New York taking the
lead by astonishing Republican majorities.
The Republicans will control the next
House of Representatives by Il majority rang
ing from 112 to 120. The returns indicate,
moreover that should the election of the next
President and Vice-President be thrown into
the House the Republicans will be able to
cast the votes of a ma GRITTY of the States and
elect the Republican nominees. The Popu-
lists, who it was believed might possibly hold
the balance of power, appear to have lost
their influence in the West and South, and
their delegation will be less than that in the
present House.
In Kentucky W. G. Owens, who defeated
Col Breckinridge in the Democratic nomin-
alton in the Lexington district, has been
slaughtered by the friends Of the silver
tsngued orator. Personal revenge also
caused the defeat of the Democratic candi-
date In the Louisville district
The Populists have lost both members of
Congress from Colorado, and they have also
met with big set backs in Nebraska.
The latest returns show the greatest Repub-
hcan pluralities on record in the Northern
and Western States. The solid Democratic
South has been badly broken up. Maryland,
Delaware, West Virginia. and probably Ten
nessee, have turned over into the Republi-
can column. The Republicans are also fgur-
ing up on the North Carolina legislature and
two Republican Senators from that State.
The Republicans will have a majority OF
fifteen iu the West Virginia legislature on
Joint ballot, and it is said that the Hon.
Stephens b. Elkins will succeed United States
Senator Camden. New Jersey elects solid
Republican Congressional delegation, and
there will only be four Democrats in the leg
islature, insuring the election of a Republi-
can to succeed Senator Mcpherson.
Missouri have also come over into the
Republican column. Gov. Stone comedies
the legislature to the Republicans The
Democrats have lost eight Congressman.
The indications show that the United States
Senate, after the changes caused by the cleo
tion have taken effect will have forty Demo-
Gratis, foriy-one Republicans, and six Popu-
lists, not counting the successor to Senator
Harris CDem.) of Tennessee, who is doubt
full quantity. In this classification, Stewart
and Jones of Nevada, formerly Republicans.

Death of EnOch M. Bye.

Mr. Enoch Mortimer Bye, well known in
the upper section of Cecil county, died at his
home in Wilmington, DEL, on Wednesday,

but who, some months ago, declared they

Senator. have been put with the Populists.
1t is probable that Tillman will vote on the
organization of the Senate with the Demo-
crats and Stewart, Jones' and PETER OF Kan
sas, with the Republicans. This would give
the Populists the balance of power in the
Senate.
In the House, as the estimate is now made
the Republicans will have 25S members, the
Democrats SO, the Populist 8, and is classed
as a silver man; total 1856. BY States the
Republicans will have more than two-thirds
majority in case the next Presidential cleo
ton is thrown into the House.
