INTERESTING FEATURES.

The returns show some interesting fea-
lures, and in some respects have been a
surprise to the leaders Of both political
parties. The New England States have, as
was expected given heavy pluralities for
Mckinley, without exception. The Repub-
lican ticket was successful in Massachu-
setts beyond what was claimed for 1T by
the most enthusiastic prophet of Repub-
lican success. New York and Pennsylvania
vie with each other for the largest plurality,
and the figures at hand do not indicate
which one of them has surpassed the other.
Each State has given the Republican cam
didate between 5,O09 and 2SO.OO0 To these
States Illinois is a good third in it's plu-
rality for the winning candidate If the
percentage of gain over the presidential
election of 1892 that has so far been shown
continues to the end it will give plurality
of not far from 175, 600. In the gubernatorial
race Altgeld has been badly defeated, but
is not buried SO deep, and is probably about
60 900 ahead of the Democratic national
ticket. There has been evidently a large
vote cast throughout the State for Mckin-
ley and Altgeld.
In Indiana, if any of the rules for esti-
mating the vote of State when, previous
to the present election, held gool, are still
to be relied upon, there Is no justification
for the Democratic claim OK having car
ried the State. If the ratio Of Republican
gain continues 20 the end of the count,
Mckinley will have approximately 10000
plurality in the State.
In Iowa as far as can be seen from the
returas at present, the Republican plural
ity has been very large--no. far either way
from 1900.
Ohio. which has ail along been claimed

reasonably certain that the Republicans

Mr.. Payne's Statement.


CHICAGO, Nov. 4-Mr. Henry c. Payne.
of the Republican national committee, in
charge of the headquarters in the absence
of Mr.. Hanna, issued the following this
evening:
considering the wild rumors which are
being circulated throughout the country.
we deem 1t proper and advisable to state
the result of the election, as indicated by
the returns reported to the Associated
Press and confirmed by kilograms to this
office from the chairmen of the several
State committees and the members of the
national committee in the several States.
Mckinley has carried beyond a doubt a
sufficient number of States. so that his
vote in the Electoral College will be not
less than 264. CMr. Payne here gives the
table printed by the Journal.) In addition
to these the States of Kentucky, North
Carolina and Wyoming are in doubt, with
the chances about even in the three States.
although the Republicans of Kentucky
claim that the State will give it's electoral
vote to Mckinley by majority of not less
than 1900.
1T is proper to give the basis of the claims
in the disputed States. Advices late this
evening from California from the member
of the national committee in San Fran
cisco place the majority in that State at
5000. This is confirmed by reports to the
Associated Press. kilograms from Indiana
from the chairman of the State Republican
central committee and the member of the
national committee show that the State
has given not less than 25.0GO and proba-
bly, over 10000 for Mckinley and that the
Republicans have elected all the members
of Congress and carried the Legislature
by majority of forty on joint ballot. Tel
egrans from North and South Dakota.
which have been confirmed by the report
received by the Associated Press, place the
majorities in these States at little more
than 5000 in North Dakota. and about SOC
in South Dakota. In North Dakota we
have elected the entire State ticket and
carried the Legislature. In South Dakota
the Legislature is in doubt. There is nc
possible foundation for the report being
circulated that Mr.. Bryan has carried any

that advices were received by Republicans
that returns from twenty-one counties in

and that if this ratio is maintained Mckin-
ley will carry the State by $4,000. The

THE CAROLINAs.
North Carolina is claimed by both par
ties, but, as in Tennessee, the returns are
very slow, and no definite conclusion is
possible at present.
South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi Ala
bama and Louisiana are all for Bryan by
about their normal Democratic majorities.
The Virginia electors will, without Ques-
ton, be for Bryan. but they have been
elected by heavily reduced Democratic
vote.
The Republicans have abandoned all hope
Of Texas, and the State Is conceded to
Bryan. The fusion between the Populists
and the Republicans in this State did not
prove a success.
Nebraska has gone for Bryan notwith-
standing the Republican claims, but Kansas
has yet said practically nothing. The
returns show Democratic gains in some
districts, and these are offset by Republic
an gains in other parts of the State. Both
parties claim the State, but the few scatter
ing returns that are in so far are of so in
definite nature as to make any estimates
of very uncertain character.
Wisconsin is sure for the Republican COL
umn by an enormous plurality.
Minnesota, which was regarded doubtful
by both parties, has surprised everybody
by the size of it's Republican plurality, and
Mckinley will have approximately 10000
to 10000 more votes in the State than Bry-
an. Governor Clough, whose election was
considered doubtful, is certainly elected
The latest information from the two Da-
kotas show that North Dakota is very sure
for Mckinley, with probability that South
Dakota will be found in the same column,
although the result is close
The Republicans claim Wyoming and
Washington, but the probabilities seem
against them in both States.
Oregon has gone for Mckinley and Col
orado, as was expected, has given Bryan a
heavy plurality and Adams has been with
out doubt, elected Governor. The interest
in the election in the State centered in the
State tickets, of which there were several
representing a variety of interests.
Idaho, Montana, Utah and Nevada have
all gone for Bryan by heavy majorities
California has. on the strength of the re-
turns at hand. undoubtedly gone for Nc
Kinley, the city of San Francisco giving
him a plurality of 6,947. One-half of the
outside precincts show Democratic gain of
Al votes, showing that the Democratic re-
lance upon the heavy support of the rural
districts was not entirely warranted.
Delaware, where the Republican party
has been rent In twain because of the Ad-
dicks-Higgins fight, has kept in the Repub-
lican column. The vote for the Republican
electors In this State has been unusually
large. showing that the factional dispute
did not extend in any great measure to the
national ticket.
The vote of Maryland has shown an inter-
esting reversal from that Of the last presi-
Dental election. Cleveland carried the State
by a plurality of 2l.13O and this year Nc
Kinley has plurality Of slightly over 21,-
Goo in the city of Baltimore alone.

Chairman Babcock says that he has COM
plete reports from 1913 congressional dis
tricts which have elected Republicans.
There are 135 districts that have elected
Democrats or Populists, and twenty-eight
districts in which the returns are incom-
plete. These may be all classed as doubt
full with the prospect that the Republicans
will secure at least one-half of them, which
would make a total Republican member

is safe to say that under no circumstances
will the membership fall below 2O0..
