IS at the rate of live per cent on its capt.

The y. T.. Eastern Terminus,

WNSnI NGTON, Nov. Another step in
Il long standing controversy has been
taken by the secretary of the interior, in
declining to approve the designation Of
the city of Duluth. Mimi, as the eastern
terminus of or initial point Of the North
ern Pacific railroad grant. The depart
ment holds that the terminal should be at
right angles to the last section OF the
road and directs that q new terminal be
established as the new eastern terminal
Of the road accordingly. Under the CON
struction of the department the line of
both the Northern Pacific and Lake Su-
perior and Mississippi roads are the same
between Thomson and Duluth. A line
Of the same character as a terminal line
should be established upon Lake Supe-
rior and Mississippi road at Thomson.
Between the line thus established and
the eastern terminus Of the N orthern Pa
cific grant when established as now di
rected, the Northern Pacific company
will not be entitled to pay for lands to
which the other company may have been
entitled under its grant. The intention
of congress, it is stated, was evidently to
provide against q double grant, where
two land grants were found to be upon
the same general lines.

FIRST Returns Received Here Were Mist

The earliest returns received on elec-
tlon night from most Of the states of the
Union, and partic ularly from those which
have constituted the battle ground, were

that the election Of Mckinley had been
won by 9 landslide unprecedented il its
extent, but to those who have had occa-
sion to closely watch the run of political
forecasts in national elections before. it
was clear that the large cities Of the
country were overbalancing in the first
returns and that farther reports would
operate to steadily reduce the estimates,
ms was IN the main true and the first
republican claim Of something like 311
electoral Votes for Mckinney was cut to
somewhere about 2G0 before 2 o'clock

noon, however, the republicans were

accepted, and the weIl-laden tables were
