GAINS OF DEMOCRATS.
The Republicans Have LIS: 81
Votes in tie Next H9usc.

The Republicans Have LIS: 81
Votes in tie Next House.
So far as the lower house Of con
gross is concerned, it was not so
glorious a republican victory after
all. Full returns from al, tee
states show that the democrats
have made congressional gains as
follows: California, I; Colorado,
2;-Delaware, /; Idaho, I; Illinois,
I; Indiana, 3; Kansas, I; Ken
lucky, I; Michigan, I; Missouri, 9;
Nebraska. 3; Ohio, !; Pennsylva-
MIA, I; Tennessee, 2; Utah, !;
Washington, l. Total, 50 The
populists have gained votes il:
California, 2; Illinois, 2; Indiana,
I; Kansas, 4; Michigan, I. Mjssou-
ri, /; Montana, I; North Carolina,
8; aud Washington, /. Total, IS.
The republicans have gained three
COR gressmen in Maryland, one in
Virginia, enc in New York, and
one in Louisiana. Total 6. The
net democratic gain Of woes,
therefore, in the Eext congress is
23; popu,ist gain IS, and the repub-
lican loss 81. Utah's representa-.
tive adds one mcre to the total
number; but two gold democrats
were elected. and the net gain to
the silver men, therefore combin-
ing both democrats and populists
is SO. One Of the republicans
elected in New York is James J.
Belden, an independent, who de-
feated the regular party nominee,
but who is withal as staunch a re,
publican as ever lived.
George w. hurry, the negro
republican member from South
Carolina, has been defeated again
by Col. William Elliott. A con
test may again be expected, since
he was successful last session.
