OUR GERMAN FRIENDS.
View McKinleys Election with Consid-
erable Satisfaction.

Copyright. 1896, by Associated Press)
Berlin, November 4.-The result Of
the election in the United States was
received throughout Germany with
great satisfastion, except by the BIZ
metallists. A high official of the for
eign Office said:
"The government is pleased with the
result and congratulates the American
people on rldding themselves for good
of an incubus and the danger of the
financial upheaval that would follow
the unsettling of the currency. All civ
ilized nations will profit by the outcome
of the election, especially Germany, ow-
ing to the intimate and important com
mercial relations with the United
States"

OREGON SAFE FOR MCKINLEY.

Portland, November 4t-Practically
complete returns from all but five
of Oregon show Mckinley has
a majority of 1856. No returns have
been received from Lake. Curry, Grant.
Harney. and Crook counties. Crook
county undoubtedly will show q plu-
rality of 100 for Mckinley, while the
other four combined win probably
give Bryan a plurality of 800, leaving
plurality in the state about
8, 900.

Chicago. November 4.--Returns from
the entire country although incomplete
In some states. are OF a nature to in
sure the election OF Mckinley. A suf-
ficient number Of states have declared
for the Republican party to make GER
for It's leader The returns show in
teresting features, and In some respects
have been n surprise TO the leaders Of
both political parties The New Eng
land states have, as was expected, Civ
en- heavy pluralities for Mckinley with
out exception. The Republican ticket
was successful In Massachusetts be-
yond what was claimed for 1t by the
most enthusiastic prophet of Republ-
can success,
New York and Pennsylvania vled
with each other for the largest plurality
and the figures at hand do not indicate
which one of them has surpassed the
other. Each state has given the Re
publican candidate plurality OF be-
tween 275.OOO and 2S5,OOO To these
states Illinois is good third in its
plurality for the winning candidate. If
the percentage Of gain over the election
of 1892 that has 50 far been shown con-
tlnues TO the end it will give n plurality
of not far from l75,OOO. In the guberna-
torial race Altgeld has been badly beat
en-, but Is not buried so deep and is
probably about 10000 ahead of the DEM
cratic national ticket There has been
evidently a large vote cast throughout
the state for Mckinley and Altgeld.
Indiana, II any Of the rules for esti-
mating the vote of the state, which,
previous to present election, held good,
are stlr to be relied upon, there is no
justification for the Democratic claims
of having carried the state. If the ra-
ito of the Republican gain continues
to the end OF the count, Mckinley will
have Approximately $4,000 plurality in
the state.
In Iowa, as far as can be seen from
the returns at present, the Republican
plurality has been very large-not far
either way from $4,000
Ohio, which has all along been claim
ed by Chairman Jones as the state In
which Bryan would push Mckinley
very close. has given the Republican
candidate an overwhelming plurality
In Michigan, the election has resulted
in very heavy reduced vote for the
Republican ticket, The free silver pa
pers OF Detroit ooncede the state for
Mckinley by 25,OOO. The last previous
vote in the state was in 1885, when
Moore, Republican candidate for jus
tice of the supreme court, had a plu-
rality OF Il ,4ST over McGrath, his DEM
ocratio rival

Topeka, Kan, November Sat mid
night sufficient returns are in to show
that Kansas cannot be counted with
the Eastern states for Mckinley. The
states hardest-fought political battle
has resulted in so close a vote that only
an official count can determine whether
the Republican or fusion state ticket is
elected.
The Bryan electors have carried the
state by approximately 1000 majority
