will give the state to Mckinley by over
10000.
With such a heavy Republican vote over
the state the Republicans have probably all
the congressional candidates, though there
is doubt about Sulzer in the Fourth district,
Tracewell in the Third and Lands il the
Ninth. There is little doubt that johnson is
reelected in the Sixth.
The Republicans Will have a majority in
the legislature which thu Republican man
ayers place at 40 on Joint ballot Marion
county will probably give a Republican ma
jority of 1000, which is a big increase over
the last vote.

AT HOME.
The Democratic Candidate and His Wifi
Undaunted by the Early Reports.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 5.-Mr. Bryan gave or
ders that the principal bulletins be sent TO
his room and there he read them. He mani
tested special interest in returns from this
state. Despite the discouraging trend of the
early reports from nearly all critical points
in the country, he maintained a cheerful
demeanOr, saying that he had expected the
cities 20 go against him. In case of Confrma-
ton of the report of his defeat it is under
stood to be his intention TO issue an address
urging the continuance of the silver agita-
ton till and throughout the next campaign
Mrs Bryan entertained guests till 10
o'clock, when she retired, after ~delegating
the duties of hospitality to her sister, Mrs.
Irene Rogers, Mrs. Schwind and a cousin Of
Mr.. Bryan. Mrs. Bryan seemed TO have rec
onCiled herself to the worst, but hoped later
dispatches would be more encouraging.

DENVER, Nov. 5.-Scattering returns re-

carried Colorado by over 100000 plurality in
a total vote of about $4,000. No effort has
yet been made to tabulate the returns.

Pinsre Leading the Ticket.


Pingree Leading the Ticket.
DETRoI Nov. 5.-Returns from the eighty
three c~ounties of Michigan indicate thatMC-
Kinley's plurality in Michigan will be 40
600. The anne returns give Pingree, for
Governor, an estimated plurality of $4,000.
That Pingree should have run decidedly
ahead or his ticket generally throughout the
state is regarded as something of a surprise
in view OF the combined interests allied
against him. In Detroit he got more votes
thar he had received in his candidacy for
Mayor. In 1SS precincts of this county Pin
gree received 81 1923 to 10, 154 Tor Sigh, Nc
Kinlcy, 33.659; Bryan, 24,417- The Repub-
ncan state ticket ran considerable behind
Pingree's vote, and several thousand behind
the Mckinley vote.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 5.-Returns re-

$4,000 in Massachusetts,.

BOSTON, Nov. 5.-Mckinley's majority IN
Massachusetts is $4,000. The Republican
candidates for President and governor car
ried every city and town for the first time in
the history of the state. The Congressional
delegation is unchanged-twelve Republic
ans and one Democrat, the latter the only
one in New England. The gold vote was
about three per cent. There was little dif-
ference betweenB Bryan Il Williams. The
vote on the biennial amendments is very
close. The legislature is more strongly Re-
publican than ever.

ADMINISTRATION FEELING.
Satisfaction Over the Apparent Defeat
of Silver.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-There was an air Of
unconccaled satisfaction in administration
circles here this morning over the election.
yet this was tempered, in many Instances,
with pity. From the President in the White
House down to the lowest Official there was
an indisposition TO exult over the defeat Of
their old time political associates, and the
members of the Presidents Official family,
one and all. preserved a dignided silence in
the hope of thus making easier the task set
for them in future OF healing the breaches
in the party.

KENTUCKY
Mckinley Has q Plurality on Conceded
Estimates of Delayed Counties.

LOUISVILLE. Ky. Nov. 5.-At s O'Clock this
morning Kentucky seemed safe for McIlin-
lev. Counties not heard from then were:
Leslie, Floyd, Johnson, Knott, Magufin,
Pike. Butler. Greenup, Harrison, Jackson,
and part of Henry. These include
strong Republican as well as strong silver
counties, but the heavy Republican gains
everywhere seem to make the state safe for
Mckinley, though the result may be close.
Taking the estimate or the missing counties
made several days ago by Chairman Sum
mers of the Democratic committee, the Nc
Kirleym majority OF the missing vote is 1888.
This would give the state to McEiu'er by
4744. This is the Democratic estimates OF
the missing counties. The Democrats
elected six out OF eleven congressman
