SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4.-California
has joined the east in the Mckinley
landslide and its majority for the Re-
publican standard bearer will reach 5000
at least. Many of the counties have not
yet sent i'll returns, but the more popul-
Gus and those on which the fate of the
election hinged have all been heard from
and swell the Republican majorities to Il
point where nothing to come later can
possibly disturb them Los Angeles,
which was the stronghold i'll the
southern tier of counties is estimated as
giving from 1000 to 1000 majority for
Mckinley. Great interest is conferred
OIL the congressional ticket. Outside of
this city only one Democratic representa-
tive seems to have been chosen. The
legislature has gone with the general
result and may be safely classed as Re-
publican. thus insuring the return of a
Republican to the United States senate.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 4.-Indications

jority in the next legislature which is to

are publishing columns OF matter OH the

all public places. Some idea of the ex-

the fact that the London newspapers are

DETROIT, Mich, Nov. 4.-Returns
from the city and state are coming in

by the counting of the city ticket first.
Bryan is running ahead of the state

candidate for governor is running away
ahead of Mckinley in this city,
but is running behind in the state.
The indications are that Mckinley will
carry Detroit and Wayne county by =

the state show large Democratic gains.

At the Democratic headquarters no

the returns thus far received were chiefly
from the cities, where the Democrats
expected Republican gains. The Demo-
cratic committee represents that the re-
turns from the country would still carry
the state for Bryan by u small plurality.
The Palmer and Buckner vote in the
state will be very light, probably not
over 5000. The state vote will be %, 600

CHICAGO, Nov. At is reasonably
certain that Mckinley and Hobart are
elected, but the majority is likely to be,
from indications at noon today, a mar
row one, u much narrower one than has
been looked for as the result of the
earlier dispatches. The following cleo.
toral votes are conceded to Mckinley:
Connecticut, 6; Illinois, "a; Iowa, IS;
Maine. 9; Maryland, 8; Massachusetts.

Hampshire, 4; New Jersey, 10; New
York, SO; Ohio, %; Pennsylvania, SO;
Rhode Island, 4; Vermont, 4; Wilson,

point with great certainty to Delaware
with 3 and Indiana with 10 as. Republi.
can, and as furnishing more than the 224
requisite to constitute a majority in the
electoral college. The three votes of
North Dakota apparently belong to Nc
Kinley and the same may be said of the
three votes of Oregon and ID of Ken.
lucky, but in all of these cases the re-
turns are too inadequate to Justify a
definite conclusion.
The following votes are conceded to
Bryan: Alabama, IL; Arkansas, 8; Colo

3; Louisiana, 8; Mississippi, 8; Missouri,
Ii; Montana, 8; Nevada, B; South Caro-
lima. .; Tennessee, 12; Texas. 10; Utah,
3: Virginia, l2; total, 1876. Nothing but
the most meager and scattering returns
have been received from California, 8
electoral votes; Kansas. 10; Wyoming, 3,
and Washington, 4, so that neither party
can as yet claim these states.
Nebraska, with its eight votes, is very
close. with the probability strongly in
favor of Bryan. North Carolina. with
its IL votes. is claimed by both sides,
but has probably gone for Bryan. and so
with South Dakota and its four votes.
The situation, therefore, may b. re-

returns on congressman were coming i'll
slowly and but one district has sent in
its complete tote. This was the Fiji
teenth. i'll which Warner. Republican,
