MExIcANS REJOICE.
Gold Standard Here Means Continued
Prosperity In Mexico.


City Of Mexico, Nov. 5.-Not merely
the American colony In this republic,
numbering fully 10000 people, but all
MeXicans, business men and manufac-
turers, have been in great state Of
suspense over the election in the United
States, and Tuesday night demanded
bulletins of news with all the avidity Of
an American population.
There was rjoising over the election
of Mckinley, as it Is universally believed
that the maintenance of the gold stand
ard and of high protection in the United
States is for the best interests Of Mex
leo.
There was rejoicing over the election
extras, the first ever known in the his
tory of journalism in this country, and
provided ample Geographic reports,
which were bulletined all over the re-
public.
The Mexican Herald says editorially:
The trusts have won behind the shield
OF honest money. They will make a
tremendous blunder if they mistake that
Tuesdays verdict is a clean bill of health
for monopolies American people will
demand fair play in trade and an open
path for talent. The declaration Of the
American people In favor of gold
standard means for Mexico continued
prosperity 1t signifies large dividends
for our mills and banks, and the carry
ing into effect Of many large and i'm
portant enterprises, for which capital
could not have been obtained In the
United States had Bryan been elected
The result of the canvass is for the gen.
eral good of Mexico.
FL Mundo in its evening edition says
The campaign is an instructive lessor
for Latin American nations, as it shows
how, after an acrimonious campaign, c
great but defeated party accepts Loyalty
the verdict at the polls. 1t congratu
lates Mexico on the continuation of thu
gold standard in the United States ant
the probable raising of the United States
tariff, which will prevent American man
ufacturers competing with Mexican
mills.

poused the cause of humanity. 1t was
confronted by everything that could buy
that Doodle could debauch or fear Of
starvation could coerce. 1t was con-
fronted by combination Of forces, such
as has never been united before, and
could probably be united again, and
worse still, the time was too short to
educate the public.
while we are defeated, our party is
more vigorous, and in better condition
generally, than it has been for third of
a century. We have dug the grave Of
the British gold standard. One more
campaign Of education will forever bury
the palsied form of that curse which has
hlighted prosperity and the happiness of
mankind. may assume that the admin
istration will be controlled by the men
who have been so prominent in securing
this election. | believe that the next
general election will reverse the verdict
of yesterday; the return Of prosperity
will no. come as promised"

AT THE CAPITAL.
Some of the Changes Indicated by the
More Recent Reports.

Washington, Nov. Slate returns in
dictate slight changes in the next SEN
ate The five doubtful states yesterday
were Delaware, Kansas, North Caro-
lima and South Dakota.
1t is now reasonably certain Della
ware will have Republican legislature
the only claim to the contrary being of
Irregularities in Sussex county. Kansas
will elect a fusion or Independent sena-
tor to succeed PETER, and Kentucky. on
the face of the returns, will elect a Re-
publican to succeed Blackburn North
Cardinals legislature is in doubt, with
chances faVoring the success of the
fusionists, who in this state were made
up of Republicans and Populists.
Until the legislature actually chooses
Fritchard's successor it cannot be told
whether North Cardinals new senator
will act with the Republican majority,
and he is not classed in either the Re
publican or independent column, but
put in the doubtful list. South Dakota
Is still in doubt, with chances favoring
a fusion Independent. The senate there
fore, on this estimate, would stand: Re-
publicans, A. Democrats, go; indepen-
dents and Populists, II; doubtful, 2.

1T WAS NOT SILVER.
Chairman of National Silver Party Explains
White Metal Defeat.

White Metal Defeat.
Chicago, Nov. 81 N. Stevens, vice
chairman of the national silver party,
gives out the following letter:
IF final results will show that Mr..
Bryan Is defeated 1t does not DEMON
strate that free silver Is beaten by any
means. The extreme and impolitic
planks Of the Chicago platform lost us
hundreds Of thousands Of votes among
conservative business men who were
really in favor Of free coinage.
Another factor In this contest which
mas greatly injured us has been the fact
that four years ago the Democratic
party went into power with president
Ind both houses and congress, and the
policy Of that president and the legisla-
live acts Of majority Of ttNt party In
congress have been too often against
the interests Of the people.
The American people wanted change,
and If Mr.. Bryan Is defeated it is largely
due to the fact that they at this time
we're not willing to trust another Demo-
cratic administration, however strong its
professions in the interests of the peo-
pie
The silver question will not down I'M
III justly settled by the restoration Of
free coinage at the ratio Of 16 to 1. 1t Is
10 be hoped that the next time 1t Is sub
mitted to the people it will not be handi-
capped by the injection of other ques-
lions, about which the friends of free
coinage radically differ in opinion.
Mr.. Bryan has made the most marvel
ous canvass ever undertaken on the
American continent, and throughout has
Shown himself to be one of the greatest
men our country has produced.

Claims His Party Is Made More Vigorous
by Defeat

Chicago Nov. Ex-Governor Altgeld
yesterday gave out a statement, adj
dressed to the Democrats, in which he
says: Although defeated, 1 desire to
thank you for the loyal support you have
given me, and congratulate you on the
heroic fight you have just made. Con-

party lay PROSTATE; it had been betrayed
in the hands of stock jobbers and monop-

been robbed of everything democratic
except the name, which stood for a great
principle; it was loaded with deadheads;
it is now cut from the domination Of
trusts and syndicates; it has repudiated
the men who betrayed it, and again pro-
claimed Democratic principles and es-

Mckinley 1l0,279; Bryan, Sc, $40; Palmer,
4277; lowering, 1898; scattering, S29. BY

NATIONAL DEMOCRACY.
Will Never Seek Alliance With PopuIist
SnNs John w HaImnr

Says John w. Palmer
Springfield, Ills, Nov. Ex-senator John
M. Palmer, national Democratic can
didate for president, has given the fol-
lowing statement to the press regarding
the result of the election:
The Democrats who voted for Mr..
Bryan at the late election did so with the
knowledge that he accepted the Populist
platform in 1896, as well as their plat
form adopted in st. Louis in 1896. The
national Democracy will never seek an
alliance with the Populists. 1 predict
that the man who voted for Weaver in
1892 will soon abandon the Democratic
name. His candidacy, which was an
example of unreasoning socialism, was
exploded by the election of Mckinley at
the late election.
The issues of the canvass were die
tated to the Chicago convention by a
combination of politicians, who are with
out principle, and only sought success.
They had before the Chicago convention
met matured plans for the nomination
of the same candidate by the Populists
at st. Louis Mr.. Bryan, thanks to the
good sense and integrity of the Ameri-
can people, is defeated. Democrats
know that protection" as the Republi-
cans call it, is a fallacy, but they also
know that the unlimited coinage Of sill
yer at 16 to l will deprave the American
money system and produce infinite mis-
cry. They have accepted the least of
the two evils. l approve of their con-
duct, and thank the Democrats who have
voted against Bryan and Altgeld, who
are the representatives Of depraved
currency and socialistic order.
DEMOCRATS SAY NOTHING.
Chicago, Nov. 5.-Chairman Jones of
the Democratic national committee and
Committeeman Campau and Johnson
held a conference about noon today
Committeeman Campau said afterward
that the situation had not materially
changed, and that no statement will be
given out at present. Secretary Hos
ford stated this afternoon that the out
look was not so bright. Bryan's election
depended on the result in Indiana and
West Virginia, there being no further
hope of Michigan. He admitted that
the situation in West Virginia looked
rather bad, but still felt confident that
Bryan had carried Indiana.

Incomplete returns in West Virginia
continue to show Republican gains,
and there is no reason to change Tues.
day nights figures of $1,000 plurality.
All four Republican candidates for con-
gress are undoubtedly elected by in
creased majorties. Atkinson (Rep), for
governor, and the entire Republican
state ticket is elected, and both branches
of the legislature are Republican. The
Gold Democrats generally voted the Re-
publican ticket.
In New Jersey, complete returns give
Mckinley and Hobart $4,000 plurality.
The next legislature will stand: Senate
Republicans, IS; Democrats, 3; house
Republicans, Sc; Democrats, 4.
Western States
Iowa will give Mckinley and Hobart
a plurality of at least $4,000 and very
probably these conservative figures will
BE- raised to $4,000 Complete returns
from "a out of the 80 counties show a gain
of 1850 in the county. 1t is more than
likely that it will increase. Mckinley
plurality will be $3.50.
In Wyoming the indications are
strongly favorable for the Republicans
to elect the presidential electors and
congressman, with chances even FOL
justice of the supreme court. One Re
publican elector is 100 ahead of the
ticket. The election of the other Re.
publican electors probable by small
majority.
