ILLINOIS,.

Chicago, Nov. 3.-The indications
based upon returns from all but one
hundred precincts of Chicago and from
scattering returns from outside the city
are that Mckinley and Tanner have
carried Illinois by over 100000. Tan
ner is running ahead of his ticket, but
somewhat behind Mckinley
Chairman Hitch of the republican
state central committee, said at 8
O'Clock: Illinois has gone for McKin-
ley and Tanner by 125,eO0. Tanner is
running far ahead of his ticket"
Captain John r. Tanner arrived at
the republican headquarters at the
Great Northern hotel tonight and was
Immediately congratulated as the next
governor of Illinois, he said: "McKin-
ley and have carried the state by con-
siderably over 100000 majority"
National Committeeman Jamison of
illinois, who was at headquarters re-
ceiving the returns agreed that the
known vote In Cook county and parts
of the state outside make Illinois sure
for Mckinley and Tanner and the
whole state ticket by over 100000 If the
gains was maintained in the rest of the
state.
Chairman Heinrichsen of the demo-
cratic state committee conceded Cook
county to Mckinley and Tanner and
admitted that the indications pointed
to the rest of the state going the same
way, although he would not give it up
until fuller returns had been received
from the country.

HOW BRYAN RECEIVED IT.

Heard the News Seated Alone in His Pri-
vate Office.
Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 3.-Mr. Bryan re-
ceived the returns at his residence this
evening. He had slept well the most Of
the afternoon and felt much refreshed
when the news began coming in. Two
Postal Telegraph wires had been run
into Mr.. Bryans residence, one con-
Meeting with democratic national head
quarters in Chicago and the other for
regular bulletins. Both instruments,
an operator at each, were placed in the
library, while in the adjoining dining
room a Western Union operator receiv-
ed the bulletins furnished by that COM
pany.
It had been understood among the
friends of the democratic candidate
that he was to be left alone on election
night, and as consequence none of the
local supporters or neighbors of Mr..
Bryan gathered at the little D street
residence. After supper Mr.. Bryan put
on a velvet house Jacket and went up
stairs to the private Office he has es-
tablished since his nomination. Mrs.
Bryan remained with him there during
the evening, husband and wife receiv-
ing the bulletins fresh from the wire
and reading and comparing them to-
gether.

NEW YORK.

New York, Nov .3.-McKinley and
Hobart made clean sweep Of the En-
pire state. The democratic plurality of
As, 900 in 1892 was reversed, and the un-
precedented plurality Of 2S4, 1000 has been
rolled up for the representatives of re-
publicanism and sound money. Tam
many's usual enormous majority in
this city has been overcome, and this
stronghold of the democracy has given
a plurality of q, 900 for Mckinley. In
Brooklyn McKinley's plurality is 49,
900.
In the state outside of the two cit
les, he has a plurality of $4,000. In
every county and every town there
have been republican gains which are
equal to NIL that republican campaign
managers claimed i'll this state. Frank
S. Black, the republican candidate for
governor, is elected by about 100000.
Timothy L. Woodruff, republican can
didate for lieutenant governor, and Ir
wing G. Vann, for judge of the court of
appeals, are elected by nearly as large
pluralities.
The republicans have elected 2S re-
publican congressman to the democrats
g. They will have about 110 out of the
150 members of the general assembly,
and the election of a republican to sue
ceed David B. Hill in the United States
senate is assured About the only sal
wage from the wreck that the demo-
Gratis have secured is the election of
Sulzer, Cummings, Mcclellan, Bradley
and Vehstage to congress from this
city.

He Was CharacteristicalIy Calm and
Placid Throughout 1t All.
Canton, o., Nov. 3.-Major Mckinley
received returns in various parts of the
house. Early in the evening he sat In
his study. After dinner he moved in
to the dining room and sat in an arm
chair near the head of the table, which
had been converted into desk for the
filing of returns.
Major Mckinley head the news with
his usual calm denleanor Around the
long table, at the end of which Major
Mckinley sat, were Judge Day, Judge
Baldwin, Charles Miller, Dr. Manches-
ter, Major McKinley's pastor and the
correspondents of the press associa-
tions. When the United Presses bulle-
tin announced that the New York
Journal had conceded the election of
Mckinley, a cheer swept through the
house and the majors usually pallid
face was slightly flushed. His friends
crowded about him, and pressed upon
him their congratulations, but Major
Mckinley refused to take anything for
granted and sai1 he would not assume
he was elected until the actual returns
gratulations be sent out to the papers
were received.
He declined to let kilograms of con-
gratulatiors be sent cut to the apers
until he felt absolutely certain of his
election, for the reason that he did not
want the senders of the congratulatory
messages to feel embarrassed in case
he happened to be defeated At mid
night the bells sounded the assembly
three bands hastened to the public
square and in ten minutes there were
assembled thousands of jubilant people
who united in singing Praise God
from Whom All Blessings Flow"

fined to her bed for a week, sat up to-
night for the first time. She had doz-

A REPUBLICAN SENATE.
States That Will Elect Senators Will
Bring About This Result.


Bring About This Result.
New York, Nov S.-According to dis
patches of the United Associated Press
es, the following states will elect re-
publican senators: Connecticut, Indi-
ana, Illinois, New Hampshire, New
York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania,
South Dakota and Wisconsin.
The following will choose free silver
republican senator's: Colorado, Idaho,
Nevada and Utah.
South Carolina will choose a free sill
yer democrat.
The following are in doubt at this
hour, but the general trend of the re-
turns makes the probabilities favor re-
publican senator's: California, Kansas,
Missouri, North Carolina and Washing
ton.
Delaware, which is now represented
by but one senator, will probably elect
republican.
Upon the basis of these changes, as
suming that the doubts are resolved in
favor of the republicans in the states
named, the next senate will stand as
follows:
Republicans on the St. Louis plat
form, As; silver republicans, 8; sound
money democrats, s; silver democrats
81; democrats unclassed, Q; populists,
2. Total, 80. The republicans could
lose two of the states and still have a
majority of the senate.

INDIANA.

Indianapolis, Nov. 3.-The only ques-
tion about Indiana is the size of Nc
lis precincts show that Marion county
has been carried by not less than 10000
and twenty-five country precincts re-
ports to the republican state commit
tee show an average gain of twenty
five to the precinct. The republicans
claim twelve out of thirteen congress
men and the legislature by a decisive
majority in both branches. This means
a republican successor to Voorhees,.
The candidates for governor are run
ming close to the figures.

democratic strongholds.
