returns from the western States make
no change in the result as indicated in
last nights dispatches, excepting in Ne
braska. At S this morning it appears
reasonably certain that Bryan has car
ried his own State by handsome ma
| jority. Only meagre returns have been
received from Kansas, North Dakota,
South Dakota, California, Oregon and
Washington, leaving the result in these
States in doubt. The vote is apparent
" very close and it may be many hours
before definite estimate can be made.
The Mckinley landslide which struck
the central States carried with it the
State and Congressional tickets. In
Illinois Altgeld, democrat, for Govern
or, ran 5000 ahead of his ticket, but
the majority for Tanner, his opponent,
will probably approach the 100000
mark. The republicans claim is of the
% Congressman. Chicago sends a
solid republican delegation to Congress.
The new legislature will be overwhelm-
ingly republican, insuring republican
successor to John NJ. Palmer in the
United States Senate.

KENTUCKY.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. Returns
to the Courier.Journal from 1,259 pre-
cincts out of total of 1853 give Nc
Kinley net majority Of $500. The
twelve counties not heard from include
some strong republican as well as strong
silver counties, but the heavy republi'
can gains everywhere seem to make the
State safe for Mckinley. Breckenridge
is probably defeated by six hundred
votes.
Republican Chairman Robert at 10
o'clock said McKiDley's plurality in
Kentucky would be between 800 and
1000. The republicans filled seven of
Tue elRuG IeRlSlatlNC faCauOiSS, giving
them 70 votes in joint assembly, ma
jority which will enable them to elect
United States Senator.
KANSAS.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-. Nov. 4--Tele-
grams this morning from Kansas indi-
cate that Bryan has carried the State
by 5000. The State ticket seems to
have run but little behind the electoral
ticket so far as heard from. The great
er portion of the railroad vote seems to
have gone for silver. The count in
many places has not yet been finished.
Jerry Simpson will have 3, 100 majority
in the 7th Congressional district.
NEW JERSEY.
NEWARK, n. j., Nov. 4. Every
county in the State, with the excep-
ton of Hudson and Hunterdon, give
greatly increased republican majorities.
Seven of the eight republican candi-
dates for Congress are elected by a
plurality aggregating $500. All the
republican candidates for senator, ex-
cept in Warren, are elected. The ma
iority for Mckinley in the State will
range from 10000 to $1,000.
