definite information tonight He has
enough, however, % know that
McLnurin has secured two votes 10
Burhtts one. aud 10 is not believed
that the populista have elected rs
many as twenty Of tho one hundred
and seveniy-oight members of the two
houses Of the legislature.
It's impossible 90 give any correct
estimate Of votes polled, but returns
from most important precincts indi-
cato that the entire democratic ticket
is elected by an overwhelming major
ity, certainly 1000. tits barely pos
siblo that one or two beat Offices viii
DO carried by the populisls.
JACKSON, Miss Tho estimated plu-
rality Of McLaurin, the democratic
candidate for governor, il from 35,
600 10 10000. The populisls did not
receive 10 per cent. Of the total vote.
The plurality for democratic state of
fcors is in the neighborhood Of 90,
600.
Maryland.
BALTIMORE, Nh. Senator A. p.
German, the great Maryland leader
who made il possible for Grover
Cleveland TO become president Of the
United States, met his Waterloo to-
day. A tidal wave such as this good
old democratic state has never known
before swept through the counties and
into the cities, aud the candidates of
the hero OF the force bin went down
under an avalanche Of republican and
Independent votes.
The returns from the country are
meager, but everywhere there have
been large republican gains.
Late returns from the wards of tho
city show that the regular democratic
ticket has been defeated by $4,000.
More than two-thirds of the members
of the Legislature will be republicans.
There will be but five democrats in
the city council, one of whom will be
a negro. Thelatter will be the second
negro elected to the council by the
people Of the city.
Virginia Goes All Right.
RICHMOND, VA.-Returns received
up to 1880 o'clock Wednesday morn
ing show that while the democrats
have carried the state and elected
more than a majority Of the general
assembly, they suffered more serious
losses than was expected. The honest
elections people have certainly carried
sixteen house districts and two sena-
torial districts, one of the latter being
the district now represented by Mr..
Walton, the patron of the present cleo
ton law which is being so vigorously
fought. The opposition also claims
to have carried Augusta and Pittsyl-
vania, two of the largest counties in
the state, and both of which usually
give large democratic maiorities.
With the nineteen hold-over senators
the democrats will certainly have two
thirds of both houses.
Nebraska.
LINCOLN, Neb.-Not one-tonth of
the voting precincts in the state had
sent in even partial returns up to IL
o'clock Tuesday night. Reports are
mainly from county seats, with few
estimates on outlying precincts, and
these indicated a material falling off
from the vote of 1898, with which COM
parsons are made. The loss to each
party is about the same, and unless
radical changes occur in outlying
counties the republican state ticket
will be elected. Incomplete returns
from the state show that Norval, re-
publican, has carried the state by 90
600 over Maxwell, populist, for SUI
preme court justice.
Massachusetts.
Boston, Mass. Massachusetts re-
elected Governor f. L. Greenhalge for
a third term by about 65, 900 plurality
over George Fred Williams, democrat,
in total vote of some 10, 900 less than
last year. Lieutenant Governor Wal
colt, republican, is reelected by a plu-
rality nearly as large. The balance of
the republican state ticket is elected
by slightly smaller pluralities. The
democrats have gained one senator in
Boston and a few representatives
throughout the state. The question,
is it expedient to grant municipal suf-
frage to women, is decided in the neg
alive by a majority of $4,000, or very
nearly two to one.
Kansas.
TOPEKA, KANs.-A light vote was
polled today. Little interest was
