NEXT HOUSE OF CONGRESS.
IL VIII Stand EOS Republicans, 13. Demo-
Gratis and - Populists.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The exact
standing of the next house of repre-
sentatives is now known, since the fig
ures from South Dakota have been re-
ported. The house will contain. unless
some changes occur through death or
designations, 205 Republicans, 1871 DEM
ocrats, and fifteen Populsts. The esti-
mates that are made here as TO the sill
yer strength gives 1875 of the Demo-
Gratis, five Republicans, and all of the
Populists to the support of silver MAX
ing the total for the white metal 155,
to POP who will not support it, The
number of the states sending solid del
egations for a single party is unusually
large, being twenty seven in all, though
five of these are states which are Re-
publican by but one member. The Re-
publicans send solid delegations from
twelve states. the Democrats have solid
delegations from twelve states, and the
Populists three states. though two Of
the latter are states with but one mem
Der each.
The Populists send both the MEM
bers from Colorado and the single
member from each of the states of Ne
observe that seven of the southern
states send divided delegations instead
of the me-honored solidly Democratic
list, while two of them, Maryland and
West Virginia. send solid Republican
delegations. This is a thing hitherto
unheard OF as to Maryland and has
seldom happened in the case of West
Virginia. The Republicans gain TWEEN
ty-six members from the south, three
from North Carolina, two from Vir-
ginia, four from West Virginia, two
from Tennessee, one from Texas, four
from Missouri, three from Maryland,
and four from Kentucky. The Popu-
lists receive five of their fifteen men,
bers from the south and all of the re-
mainder from west of the Mississippi
river. The south is no longer solid, as
the Democrats have but ninety-six of
the 127 members from that section. OF
and Kentucky and east of the Missis-
the 200 members north of Virginia
sippi river all but twenty-five are Re-
publicans.
