Correspondence OF the Alexandria Gazette ]
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the
democratic Congressional campaign
committee, to-day received kilograms
announcing the election of six members
in Ohio and two in South Dakota.
Those from Ohio are John L. Bren-
ner (dem. and pop.), Bird district; Geo.
A. Marshall dem. and pop.), 4th dis
trict; David Mackinson free silver
dem. and pop.). 9Th district; John j.
Lentz (dem.), 10Th district; james A.
Norton (dem.), 18th district, and j. A.
Mcdowell (dem. and pop), 18th dis
trict. In South Dakota John E. Kelly
dem and freeman Knowles peoples
partly at large, are elected.
Consul General Fitzhugh Lee called
at the State Department this morning
after Secretary Olney had gone to the
Cabinet meeting and saw assistant Sec
retary Rockhill who has direct charge
of the consular service and therefore is
the consul generals immediate SUI
perior. Half an hour later Secretary
Olney having returned to his office
General Lee had long talk with him.
After paying his respects to the Presi-
dent the general hopes to 60 TO his Vir
GINA home for week Or two.
Private intelligence here from repub
lican headquarters in New York is to
the effect that $4,000 was the sum
expended by Mr.. Mark Hanna in Vir-
ginia, $4,000 each to the republican
and the boilers committee, of which
sum SIS, 600 was distributed among the
democratic lawyers who were engaged
to see that there was "free vote and
a fair COUNT
Virginia republicans here say that
three, and possibly more of the de-
feated republican candidates for Con-
gress in that State will contest
the seats to which their democratic
opponents have been elected; also that
either Mr.. Edgar Allan or Mr.. James
Lyons will be .. S. District Attorney
for the eastern district of Virginia,
probably the latter, as Mr.. Ingalls,, of
the Morgan-Vanderbilt syndicate, will
have great influence with the admins
tration. Colonel Brady, it is said,
would like 10 Ue SOuulSStOucl vi III
ternal Revenue, but will probably be
content with his old place, Collector of
Internal Revenue for the southern dis.
trict of his State. Mr.. Watts will
probably get his old place as marshal
for the western district of the State,
and Mr.. Lurty or Shetfey Lewis the
district attorneyship. 1t is not sup
posed that any of the boilers will be of
fered anything. Mr.. McCaull, it is
said, may possibly be Internal Revenue
Collector for the upper district.
Personal friends of Mr.. Bryan here
say he has already received an offer of
$25, 600 year as counsel for large
business house in New York and one of
$4,000 for lecture tour this winter.
His dispatch to Mr.. Mckinley. congratu-
lating him upon his election, is consid-
cred to be one Of the most courteous
acts of this most discourteous age.
The report of the domestic output of
tin and terne plates for the last fiscal
year shows large increase in the pro-
duction over that of the previous year.

ELECTION CoNTEsTs.-The republi-
cans yesterday, in Richmond, began
proceedings upon which will probably
be based contests before the House OF
Representatives of the seat of the demo.
Gratis returned from the second, third,
fourth and fifth districts in this State.
Mr.. Edgar Allan, the well known re-
publican lawyer, and so conspicuous in
reconstruction days, is expected to be
the principal counsel for the defeated
party in this legal contest.
Judge Edmund Waddell and Colonel
James D. Brady, of the republican State
committee, yesterday evening issued a
card setting forth the enormous frauds
in the vote in Virginia, and claiming
that mckinley is entitled to the cleo
toral vote of Virginia upon a fair count
by at least 1000, and that on proper
return the republicans should have moi
less than six Congressman"
The Virginia republican club, color
ed, of Washington, met last night and
arranged for a ratification November
16. Several speeches were made jubi.
lating over the results of the election.
One of the speakers announced ths I
twelve republican voters from that city
reached Lynchburg too late to cast their
ballots, but if they had got in few
minutes sooner they would have turn
ed democratic majority of ten into q
republican majority of two in that city.
Resolutions were presented urging Capt.
P. 81. McCaull to contest the election
of Judge Rixey in the Eighth Virginia
district on the grounds of fraud.

FIVE MONTHS ago no body except
Mr.. Cleveland wanted the democratic
nomination for the Presidency, as no
body supposed the nominee would have
the slightest chance of election. Mr..
Bryan, however, received the electoral
votes of twenty-five States, and for a
time was thought to have been elected,
and upquestionably would have been,
except for wholesale bribery, cor
ruption and bulldoZing.

GEN. FITZ LEE IN WASHINGTON
Gen. Fitzhugh Lee arrived in Washing
ton yesterday evening and registered at
the Shoreham. He declined to talk on
Cuban affairs, even in general terms.
He is on his way to his Virginia home,
where his family now is. and will only
tarry in Washington long enough to pay
his respects to Mr.. Cleveland and lay
before him such information on the Gu
ban question as will be necessary to
enable him to discuss that question in
his coming message to Congress at its
meeting in December. He will tai
his family with him on his ro4
Havana.

WHEN ASKED in New York what he
thought of the result of the election,
General Fitz. Lee is reported to have
said, "Peace to the dead" But the
democrats of Virginia won't be satisfied
with that. They have just been en-
gagged in desperate conflict with re-
publicans, negroes and deserters, and
they want to know whether his SYM
pathy were against them, in their hour
OF trial, as his cousin says they were;
and the sooner he satisfies them on thu +
point, the better it will be for his politi-
cal future.

ROUTED HER MORMON HUSBAND
A dispatch from Salt Lake City, Utah,
says: Elder Cannon, of the Mormon
Church, was hit hard by the Bryan
wave that swept everything hereabouts
from the grasp Of republicans.
Mrs. Cannon was pitted against her
husband in the Sixth senatorial dis
trict. She conducted a vigorous cam.
paign, emulating the Bryan tactics by
vigorous stumping tours. Her hus'
band fingered at home among the sis
ter.wives with whom she shared his
hearthstone. Excitement ran high IN
the district, even equaling the interest
in national issues. Silver was arrayeo
in solid ranks for the wife, the hus-
band elder confessiDg to reluctant
inclination toward the sound money
idea. The vote was big one, and the
wife won by handsome majority.

AS THE republican managers in this
State commenced the cry of fraud be-
fore the election, that they still keep it
up is not at all wonderful, though the
fact that they have elected two con-
gressmen, one in what was considered
safely democratic district, is sufficient
of itself alone to discredit them.

THE President in his hypocritical
thanksgiving proclamation says the
people should be thankful for their es.
cape from dire disaster" What par
ticular disaster have they escaped ?
All mortals are in constant danger of
disaster, and all Of them should be
thankful for escape therefrom. But
for him to imply that the defert of the
party that enabled him to become a
millionaire, and that, too, by bribery
and desertion, was an escape from dire
disaster, while characteristic OF him, is
positively absurd. He, indeed, has es.
capped an income tax on his millions,
