FROM THE NATIONS CAPITAL
HOW, YESTERDAYS ELECTIONS
WILL AFFECT THE UNITED
STATES SENATE.
'HE DEMOCRATS LOSE SENATOR BRICE NOW.
And Also a Senator in Maryland-Sen-
ator Blackburn Will Probably Be Re
turned-Two Senators From
Utah in Doubt.

Washington. Nov. 5.-Great interest
was manifested here in the legislative
elections throughout the country, as they
will materially affect the condition OF the
United States senate AS a result of
today's elections the Democrats will lose
and the Republicans gain senator from
MARYLAND and from Ohio. The other
legislative elections do not appear TO al
feet the standing in the senate, as Zen
lucky and Mississippi remain Democrat
ic. the latter certainly and the former
probably, while Iowa continues KepuDl-
can. Utah chooses two United States
senators for the first time, but the COM
pletion of the legislature is not yet GER
tain. The Republican majority in the
next Ohio legislature, as shown by elect
tions from Ohio, insures the retirement
of Senator Brice Dem.) and the success
sion of a Republican. In Maryland the
election of a Republican legislature-the
first for many years-will bring about
the retirement of Senator Gibson and the
election of a Republican in his place.
The election of Republican legislature
in Iowa is not unexpected and 1t is con
sidered settled that Senator Allison will
be elected to succeed himself
In Kentucky, incomplete returns indi-
cate Democratic legislature, which will
elect Senator Blackburn to succeed him
self, but up to l a. m. the Legislature
was in doubt.
The return of Democratic legislature
in Mississippi has been a foregOne con-
clusion. 1t will elect n successor to
Senator Ferguson.
Hillsboro, Tex, Nov. 5.-(SpeciaD-
News reached here last night ut
II late hour that John Clay
had been caught by n gin and fatal
ly injured. The accident occurred about
twenty miles from here in the Mont
calm vicinity. 1t seems that he was en-
ployed as an engineer to run the engine,
but had gone up stairs for something,
and while up there the gin stand became
clogged. He put his hand underneath
the stand to relieve it, when the gin
caught his arm and head, decorating his
arm and saving through the side of his
face and skull. The accident occurred
about 2 o'clock in the night. He was sin
gle, and ut one time was employed by
Sheriff Bell of this county as II deputy,
and made good officer, and he had many
friends here.

RECEIVING ELECTION NBWS.

Washington, Nov. 5.-Owing to the I'M
favorable weather in several States and
the uncertainty in results, excitement
here is at fever heat. Especially is this
the case in the elections of New York,
Kentucky, Maryland and Ohio, and the
returns from those States were awaited
with the greatest interest.

appearance at the White House at all

oUINLAN CONFESSED.
Chicago Police Think They Can Convict
HOLMES Of One hfnrdor.

Chicago Police Think They Can Convict
Holmes Of One Murder.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-The police have at
last obtained a partial confession from
Pat Quinlan, the ianitor of Holmes cas-
tie, and have, they beliove, positive evil
dence that Benjamin Pitzel was murdered
in this city by Holmes and tho corpse sent
20 Philadelphia.
The confession was wOrncd out of the
Quinluns by means OF a Zip given the local
officers by Detective Geycr Of Philadelphia.
The exact nature of the story told by the
Quinlans the police will not reveal, and
in fact Chiof BadcnOch and Inspector
Fitzpatrick hnye both denied that Quin-
Ian or his wife made any confession at all.
Notwithstanding tho denial of the po-
lice, however, IL is positively known that
Quinlan made and signed "A confession
because IL wss left where Quinlan's sigma.
ture on the document could be seen, al.
though the subject matter under which
he wrote his name could not be asccr
tainod
II was learned that n confession was
made covering all the details of the murder
of Pitzel with the exception OF the actual
place in which the crime was committed
This, the police declare, they will have,
and thoy declare that by Aug. they viii
have indisputable evidence that Pitzel
came TO his end through the direct agency
of ii. II. Holmes.
Tho confession was obtained from the
Quinlans only after the hardest kind OF
work, and that at the price OF a promise Of
immunity from punishment for all part
the Quinlans may have borne I'm the muir
der Of pitzcl or other crimes committed
by them.
Mrs. Pat Quinlan knew Of the disap-
peaiance Of Julia Connor in Holmes cas-
tie and saw the body Of the woman after
she was dead. She further knew and has
admitted that Pearl Williams disappeared
mysteriously i'm the castle after her return
from trip to the Quinlan farm at Lacota,
Mich.
Chief Badenoch took Mrs Quinlan and
her husband TO the castle Friday with In
spoctOr Fitzpatrick and Detectives Fitz.
patrick and Norton. Tho object of this
trip was moro for the purpose Of letting
Quinlan and his wife meet than any 9th
or. They were closeted together alone for
an hour in the room in which the Julia
Connor carpet lies and the chair belonging
20 the murdered woman stands.
What took place between thom no one
knows, but Chief Badenoch and his de
tcotivcs are nearer a solution of the
Holmes mystery than they were ever be.
FORE The chief now has proof positive
that Mrs. Connor and Pearl, her daugh-
ter or Cora Quinlan, were murdered in
the building while the mother was in his
employ.
Mr.. Quinlan has given information
within the last "a hours which brings the
charge of murder nearer to Holmes than
it has been in Chicago at any time since
the case opened.
