Republicans Are Now Claiming All
Three Electors.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 6.-Wyo-

Bryan 1916; Mckinley 9,205; Osborne,
Oemocrat) for congress, 9,346; Mondell,
Republiean) 9,106. The fifty-seven pre-
cincts to hear from are estimated Re-
publican by 200. The Republican state
committee estimates the plurality for
It's electoral, Congressional and state
tickets, when full returns are in, will
be 500. The returns show that the Re
publicans have carried seven counties
in the state and the Democrats five
No returns have been received from the
newly organized county of Big Horn,
but it has probably been carried by the
Republicans. The Republicans will
control both branches Of the state
legislature with 10. Democrats and 38
Republicans on joint ballot.
A telegram from Star Valley, In Uin-
tab county, states that Bryan, Osborne
and Corn will have 100 majority in the
valley. Returns from Fremont county
give the Republican candidates small
majority. Partial returns from Crook
county, indicate a majority Of probably
so for the Republicans.

He VIII Not Be the Senator From,
Delaware.

WILMINGTON, Del, Nov 6-The
political complexion of Delaware's next
legislature will have to be fixed by the
courts. The official count completed to-
day seats in the state senate the follow
ing: Newcastle county, John Pyle,
Democrat; r. ]. Handy, Union, Repub-
lican, and Samuel Alrichs, Republican
Handy and Alrichs are "hold-overs. 3"
Kent county-John w. Fenimore and
Hezekiah Harrington both "hold-over'
Democrats. The third senator from
Kent is in doubt, both Republican and
Democratic election boards having
made mutual claims of election. The
control Of the senate will depend upon
this man. Sussex county seats G. Fish
er Pierce and John McLayton Moore,
both Republican "hold-overs," and Will
liam T. Moore, Democrat. A Repubn-
can will probably fill the doubtful place
from Kent, as the party has control
of the senate power on qualification in
the new house. In the house the
Democrats have 13 and the Republi-
cans 1. The defeat of j. Edward Ad-
dicks, aspirations for the United States
senate is almost assured. McKinleys
official plurality in the state is 1887.

Success of the Republicans NJ
Longer Questioned,

BISMARCK, N. D., Nov. 6.-Returns
indicate that the Republicans will have
thirty majority on joint ballot There
is no likelihood Of a repetition of the
senatorial election of 1899, when the
Republicans had a majority of thirteen
and elected Roach, Democrat
Bailey Fuller was defeated for the
senate in Stutsman county and Prosser
in Ramsey, reducing the Republican
majority on joint ballot in the legis-
lature to sixteen, at which figure it will
probably remain. Chief Justice Wallin
has been elected, though some inroads
were made on his vote by Judge Tenn
pleton, of Grand Forks, the fusion can
didate. Judge Rose, of Jamestown, was
the only district judge defeated. The
Democrats concede their defeat on all
lines, and have closed their headquar-
ters.
There is no question of the success of
the Republican electoral, gubernator-
fal and congressional tickets. The Re
publicans have control Of the legisla-
ture, having all but two of the hold
over senators. The house is still un-
settled.

CINCINNATI, Nov 6.-The Times
Star has received the returns from
Leslie county, Kentucky, which gives a.
Republican plurality of S41, and with
complete returns from all counties of
Kentucky, announces that Mckinley
has plurality of 676.
Cincinnati, Nov GA special to the
Commercial from Lexington,
KY, says: Chairman Roberts, at 10
o'clock tonight says official returns
from the remaining 19 counties, give
Mckinley ATS plurality. At an earlier
hour, Chairman Johnson, of the Demo-
cratic committee, said he was not ready
yet to congratulate Roberts. He be-
lieved errors had been made against
Bryan In returns where sufficient votes
had been given to turn the scale in his
favor on the official count.
Louisville, KY, Nov. 6.-The follow
ing statement was handed to the AS
soc1ated Press tonight by Urey Wood
son, a member of the Democratic ma
tlonal committee for Kentucky:
1 am more confident tonight than 1
nave been at any time since the cleo
t1on that the Democratic electoral
ticket was elected in Kentucky but
have an abundance of evidence that
the Republicans Of the mountain coun-
ties, where Democrats are exceedingly
frauds, both before and since the polls
closed on Tuesday. This information
has come to me from most reputable
men at Middlesboro, and other towns in
Eastern Kentucky.
The Republican committee and the
press Of Louisville have kept up
steady claim the past three days of
plurality Of from 900 to 1000. During
this time they have been forced to
acknowledge to errors which reduced
their claims 500 in Fayette county, 638
in Hardin, 494 in Galloway, 331 in Ken
ton, 100 in Campbell, 100 in Scott and
enough in Christian, Henderson, Del
viss, Mclean and other counties to
still further reduce their claims more
than 500
Thus they have been compelled to
scale their calculations nearly 5000
votes, while the Democratic estimates
on these counties have been practically
unchanged, but every time they have
been forced to acknowledge the truth
about one of these central and west
ern counties, which with good tele-
graphic and telephone facilities were
speedily covered by the news agencies
they have been able to draw on one
Of those remote mountain counties for
majority far surprising anything
ever known in their history, and still
they claim the state by 600. The Re-
publicanS at the outset claimed IL 800
in the Eleventh (mountain) district,
and have gradually risen to 14,3OO 1
am entirely confident of the election
of the Bryan electoral ticket by a
small but safe majority which will be
shown on the final count. Our people
are collecting the evidence of these
frauds. -Urey Woodson.

No Chance for the Majority to BE
Wiped Out.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 6.-Returns
from the interior counties are coming
in slowly, and it may be several days
before the vote is complete. Bryan is
making small gains. but cannot in
crease his vote enough to reduce the
majority of Mckinley by more than
few hundred. The original estimate Of
5000 Republican majority still stands.
The close and exciting contests in the
Sixth and Seventh congressional dis
tricts are the feature of the situation.
In the former McLachlan thinks he is
beaten, but the figures show that he
has still small lead over Barlow.
All precincts have been heard from
with the exception of 125 and Nc
Kinleys plurality in the state up to
date is .6,196, a loss Of SIS votes during
the day. The missing precincts in 1892
cast only 4,246. In that year, these pre-
cincts gave Cleveland zoos; Harrison
1,792 and Weaver 356, a plurality for
Cleveland over Harrison of 306.

Two states are still uncertain as to
their electoral vote. Kentucky and
South Dakota are claimed by both
sides and the official count will be
necessary to fix the column in where
they will be counted. In Kentucky the
situation favors the Republicans a
trifle and in South Dakota free silver
has a shade the best of it. In Wyom-
ing the Republicans have one elector,
and claim three. but the returns do
not warrant making any change. A

sumo of Existing Conditions.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-All of the men,
bers of the cabinet except Secretary Francis,
who has not yet returned to Washington,
were present at today's cabinet meeting, and
it is believed the subjects to be treated in
the PRESENTS message were touched upon.
United States Consul General Lee called
at the state department shortly after IL
o'clock today and word of his arrival being
conveyed to Secretary olney at the White
house, the latter left the cabinet meeting
and came at once to the department. where
he received Gen. Lee. At the conclusion Of
his conference with Secretary Olney, Gen.
Lee went to luncheon with Assistant Sec
Ietary Rockhill who is directly responsible
for the conduct of the consular business,
and SO was interested in what the consul gen
eral had to say of conditions in Cuba. In the
afternoon the consul general went over to
the White house and paid his respects to the
president. His call there was not long, so
it is supposed he will see the president again
before he returns to his post, to discuss
Cuban affairs more in detail. From what
can be CLEANED Of the talk Gen. Lee has
had with his superior officer, it appears he
left matters in Cuba very quiet by compari-
son with what has gone before. Confined
closely as he was to Havana, he was obliged
to rely upon the same official reports as were
telegraphed to the United States, for news Of
what was going on in the field, so that
his views of the military situation were
pared to discuss the economic aspect of the
Cuban question, and. after ALL this is likely to
figure as largely as any other factor in the
consideration Of our future relations.
Gen. Lee Is absolutely uncommunicative as
to what passed between the president and
himself at their interview today beyond the
fact that there was a free and full talk re-
garding affairs in Cuba, in which the chief
executive manifested a great deal of inter-
est Concerning the future action of the ad-
ministration respecting a change Of policy
fho norf Of rd ho
insurgents, Gen. Lee automatically shields
himself from answering questions. He ex-
poets to leave Washington for his home in
Staunton Va. tonight or tomorrow He
does not indicate clearly the length Of his
stay here, but leaves no doubt of his inten-
ton to return to his post within a reasonable
period Of time. TIE climate certainly has
not proved Injurious to the consul general
and It is plain he is in better health than
when he left the United States to relieve
Consul General Williams at Havana.
