WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.--ChAirman Bah
cook Of the Republican congressional COM
mittee says;
The returns received here fully verify
the predictions which have been made BY
the Republican congressional committee.
For months II has been patent to all fa-
miliAr with the political situation that
there could be but one result. the ava
lanohe which We have fcressen and an
nounoed, but It must be admitted the de-
tails already received exceed our expocta-
lions. The good sense and patriotism Of
the American people have once more been
displayed in a great crisis, the like Of
which has not been seon since the Uleotion
Of Abraham Lincoln, In 1850. So thor
oughly has the Chicago platform been re-
pudiated and denounced BY true Ameri-
cans that no party can have the effrontery
TO place il In whole or In part before the
people again for their Endorsement. The
Ftfty-hfth congress will contain very near
ly, II not as many, Republican m0mbeFs
as did the Fifty-fouFth. believe that the
senate will have a good working sound
money majority.

doubtful and possibly as lost. Returns 80

impossible to give very intelligent opin.

sufficient gains to give the state to Bryan

jority VIII certainly be very small either
way. Chairman Manahan Of the Lancas.
ter county Democratic committee predicts
30, coo Democratic majority and says he
is supported in this claim by the sision
state chairman. He says the Lincoln ma
jority is loss to the Republicans Of 1, 500
and that the full returns from the coun-
try precincts outside the city will reduce
McKinley's majority to about 800. Mr..
Manahan expresses the belief that the fu-
sionists will elect six of the congressman
from Nebraska. He asserts that Bradley is
certainly elected from this, the First, dis

From late and trustworthy returns
received from the state the indications are
very strong that Bryan will carry the
state by small majority. The returns
from the oities of Omaha and Lincoln,
where the Mckinley majorities were ex-
pected, are practically in, and 1t is evident
that they Will not be sufficient to over
come that from the rural districts In ia

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 4.--On comparison
Of the vote with that Of the last presi-
Dental election, Ohio made unprecedented
gains for Mckinley. In 1899 Harrison
carried Ohio by an average plurality for
Republican electors Of 1,072. In that year
one Of the Cleveland and Stevenson elect
ors was elected. In 1898 Mckinley had q
plurality Of over $4,000 for governor.
the Republicans carried Ohio in 1894 by
$4,000, and last year Bushnell (Rep },
was elected governor by over 92, ,000 The
Republicans have had phenomsnally large
pluFalities In Ohio the past three years
commencing with MoKinley's reelection
as governor In 1898, while in 1899 the re-
suit was very close The state in 1899. for
the first time, did not give its entire elect
oral vote to the Republican presidential
candidate. The largest plurality ever
given Republican presidential ticket in
Ohio was "a, ,000 for Garfield in 1880.
Chairman MoConville of the Democratic
state executive committee states that he
thought the later returns would show
Democratic gains in Ohio to offset the
heavy Republican gains In Hamilton,

that it looked as II the Republicans had
carried the state. but was unwilling to

PORTLAND, Nov. 4.-The election in
Maine proved one of the quietest in the
states history. Generally the returns show
ed falling of Of the Democratic vote and
a slight increase In the Republican vote,
which accounts In a great measure for the
heavy Republican plurality. On the whole
the vote showed no material change from
that in the recent state election. The vots
cast for Palmer and Buokner was not as
heavy as anticipated and had little effect
on the general result The accurate fig
ures of the plurality depend upon returns
from remote districts, but 10000 is oon-
sidered as a conservative figure.
