ent leanings. Some districts are in
doubt. and no attempt has been made
to include Washington and South Da-
kota and three districts in Texas in
the list, owing to tie .IIeager and con-
f1icting returns. Washington has

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The next Sem
ate, it is believed, will stand:
Republicans, A.
Democrats, 80.
Populists and independents. Is.
This takes all states out of the doubt
full column, placing Kentucky and
North Carolina in the Republican col
umn, as Senator Butler said to-day
that a free silver Republican would
probably be returned by the fusionists.
Delaware is put in the Democratic
column, and Kansas and South Dakota
in the independent and Populist
column.
This will prevent the Republicans
from taking control of the senate I'M
less some of those who bolted the Re-
publican platform at st. Louis should
return. 1t is difficult to estimate the
exact standing of the next senate on
the money question, owing to the new
alignment of parties in the recent
campaign. Men who have been pro-
nounced silver men have been support
ing the Republican platform and can
didates, and pronounced gold men
have supported the Democratic plat
form and candidates. Perkins of Cali
f~ornia, Woleott of Colorado, Shoup
of Idaho, Carter of Montana,
Mitchell of Oregon, Wilson of Wash
ington, and Clark and Warren of Wy
oming have all voted for and sup
ported silver legislation, and what
course they Will now take in the Sen
ate is altogether problematical. Among
the Democrats German of Maryland,
Smith of New Jersey, Murphy,of New
York, Faulkner CT West Virginia and
Mitchell of Wisconsin all have voted
against silver, and yet supported the
Democratic party in this campaign.
AS no silver bill possible could pass
the House, this fact would influence
voting n the Senate ON the silver
question, especially in the shape of
rider to a tariff bill. The probability
is that on a free coinage amendment
to a tariff bill all of the forty-four Re-
publicans would vote against it. and
possibly some Democrats, such as
Gallery of Louisiana, Gray of
Delaware and Lindsay OF Ken
lucky, who bolted the Chicago plat
form, and perhaps even some OF those
who supported Bryan during the
campaign. 1t also is not unlikely hat
some of the Republican senators who
bolted the Republican platform might
take a position which would permit a
tariff bill in which their constituents
are largely interested, because of wool
and lumber and lead ores, to become a
law.
Senator Faulkner. Democrat. of West
Virginia. said to-day that the silver
men, by standing solidly with the
Democrats, could prevent tariff legis-
lation. Senator Butler. ON the other
hand. said that he and others Of the
Populists would support the right
kind of a tariff bill, but not a measure
like the Mckinley bill. Mr.. Butler

OF Nebraska.

Defeat of Linton in Michigan and Hainer
Of Nebraska.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The House of
Representatives will lose a good many
interesting figures. Not one of these
was more prominent than William II.
Linton, the acknowledged head of the
American Protective association. He
has been defeated in the Eighth Mich
igan district by Ferdinand ID. Brucker
of Saginaw. 1t is not known whether
twas Mr.. Unions connection with the
A. 2. A. which brought about his de-
feat or the preponderance of silver SEN
timent in his district.
Eugene J.. Hainer, another leader of
the forces arrayed against s~ectarian
appropriations in the House, and said
to be a member of the A. z. A., was de-
|feated in the Fourth Nebraska district
by Judge w. L. Stark, popu1ist. Next
to Mr.. Linton, Mr.. Hainer was known
as the leader of hat element opposed
to any kind of s~ectarian appropriation.
The silver men lose Tiowne, the
young Minnesota Republican, who be-
came a national figure by his speech in
the house and by his bolt of the st.
Louis convention. Mr.. Towne still
claims his election, but the chances
are against him.
There will be one colored man in the
next house whose seat will not be
questioned. He is George II. White
of the Second North Carolina district.
George w. Murray, the colored mem
Der from South Carolina. has been de-
feated by Colonel Elliott, but will
probably contest the election, as he
did in the present house.

VIEWS.
Gives Out q Statement on the Result
of the Election.

CHICAGO, Nov. G.-Governor Altgeld
gave out yesterday a statement adj
dressed to the Democrats of Illinois, in
which he says:
although defeated, / desire to
thank you for the loyal support
you have given me, and l con-
graduate you upon the heroic fight
You have just made. Consider that
only six months ago our great party
lay PROSTATE. 1t had been betrayed
into the hands Of the stock
| iobbers and monopolists by Pres
ident Cleveland; it had been
robbed of everything Democratic ex-
| cept the name; it stood for no great
| principle; it was loaded with political
Head heads; yet it cut loose from the
dominion of trusts and s~yndicates; it
repudiated the men who betrayed it,
and again proclaimed Democratic prin-
ciples and espoused the cause of toiling
humanity. 1t was confronted by
everything that money could buy, that
Doodle could debauch or that fear of
starvation would coerce. 1t was con-
fronted by a combination of forces
such as had never been united before
and could probably never be united
again; and, worse still, the time
was too short to educate the public.
While we are defeated, our party
is m ore vigorous and in better condi-
lion generally than it has been for a
third of a century. We have dug the
rrate of the British gold standard.
One more campaign of education will
forever bury the palsied form of that
curse which has blighted prosperity
and happiness to mankind. We may
assume that the coming administration
will be controlled by the men who have
been S % prominent in securing this
election.
Il believe that at the next general
election the people will reverse the
gerdict of yesterday. The return Of
prosperity will not come as promised.
1t vas the great common people of
America and not the rich who saved
Dur institutions in 1861, and it will de-
golve on the great common people of
this country to save free government
