KENTUCKY.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 3.-9:15 D..
m.-The returns of the Courier Journal
and Evening Times and the Republican
state committee indicate that McKin-
ley has carried Kentucky by at least
400 plurality. Republican landslides
are reported from many counties which
have. heretofore been Democratic
strongholds.
One hundred and thirty-three out of
1877 precincts in the city of Louisville
give Mckinley 1851; Bryan, 1,2S5.
Louisville in 1892 gave Cleveland 1855;
Harrison, 11.S70. The returns from this
state are coming in slowly; 139 out of
1868 precincts in the state show a
Republican gain of 4,101 over 1895.
Colonel w. c. P. Breckenridge, who
is on the Republican ballot as a can
didate for congress in the Seventh dis
trict, is running behind the Republican
ticket, but the heavy Republican vote
in Franklin county may pull him
through.

(RepD is reelected by 5000 plurality
over Charles D. Jacob Qnd.)
There are no complete returns in
from any congressional district except
this (the Fifth, which REFLECTS Walter
