LINCOLN, Nov. 4.-McKinley's major.
ity i'll Lincoln is 1,OlS. This is a Demo.
cratic gain, as the city has generally
been Republican by u considerable
larger vote. Bryan's ward, the Fifth,
gave q majority of eos against him and
his precinct 30 majority i'll opposition.
These are all reductions of former
majorities.
The Seventh ward of Lincoln complete
gives Mckinley II majority out of II to.
tai vote of 6Sl. Two years ago it was
carried by the Republicans by 243. The
Fourth ward of Lincoln gives Mckinley
sl3 and Bryan GA.
AT Democratic headquarters it il
claimed that Mckinley will carry the
city of Lincoln by not more than 1000,
but they say that will be offset in other
parts of the county and the chances arc
that Bryan will carry Lancaster county.

vote in Douglas county is: Mckinley,
9.430; Bryan. S,2l7. Missing precincts
are II in the Third ward, two in the
Eighth ward, four in South Omaha aud
four i'll country.
One hundred and n~inety-four pre-.
cincts outside of Douglas county give
Mckinley. 20,O36; Bryan. ls.90l. Two
years ago these gave: Majors, 1891;
Holcomb, 1898.
