by Over 3 q

Dy OSer %OO,OOO.
NEW YORK, Nov. 3. - Returns I'D to
midnight indicate that the Republicans
nave carried New York State by 100000 and
the city OF New York by %, 900.
Later-Based upon returns from one
fourth of the election districts above the
Harlem. together with the nearly COM
plete returns from New York and Kings
counties. which includes New York city
and Brooklyn, the plurality of Mckinley
over Bryan in the State of New York is
estimated at 295, 600.
When results were so far known as to an
nounce that Black, Republican candidate
for Governor, had run behind his electoral
ticket about 5000 in the city. which indi-
Gates his having about one-half the plural
ity given Mckinley. expressions Of sur
prise could be heard. But such a result was
naturally to be expected on account Of
many Democrats voting the Republican
national ticket and refusing TO vote the
State ticket. Still more Comment was
made on the vote for Woodruff for Lieuten-
ant Governor. which pointed 10 his having
about 5000 plurality. In general results in
the city were known early. Col. Fred
Grant, sitting in his office at police head
quarters. with the coming in of the first
figures and before ordinary citizens had
any idea that the counting had really COM
menced. dashed off a message to Major
Mckinley, congratulating him on receiving
the majority of votes in this city, adding a
line of congratulations upon his being the
next President.

Returns from West Virginia are meagre,

given a very large Republican plu-
rality. Tennessee is claimed by both
parties. North Carolina is close,
Indiana and Michigan, as we'll as Minneso-

kota are very close. but the frst-named
State is probably Republican. Wyoming
seems to have gone for Mckinley. The re-
turns from the Pacific coast States are too
meager to justify any claim respecting
them. The States of Virginia, South Caro-
lima, Florida, Georgia. Alabama, Louisiana,
Arkansas. Colorado. Nevada, Montana and
Idaho may safely be placed in the Bryan
column. The returns from Kansas and
Texas are scattering and indicate nothing.

Partial Returns, However,, Favor the
Electors.

OMAHA. Neb., Nov. AT $40 the indica-
lions are that the State of Nebraska on

Omaha and Lincoln give Mckinley 10. 00S:
Bryan. 1902. Both candidates are making
big gains over the vote of 1894, The gains
offset one another, however. In the larger
towns of the State Mckinley leads Bryan,
and in the smaller villages Bryan slightly
leads. On the theory hat Bryan will carry
the farmer vote the present situation is
favorable TO him, since M returns Of i'm
portance have yet been received. Those
rural districts which have reported. how
ever. do not bear out the idea that the
farmers are voting for Bryan. Ten rural
precincts have reported. showing about the
same ratio which obtains in the smaller
towns of the State. This means Mckinley
will carry Nebraska by a small vote. al
though the silver men do not concede this.

Chairman Jones gave out the following
signed statement:
There is no foundation for the claims of

of the States claimed by me for Mr.. Bryan
has failed TO vote for him. While mislead-

Bryan. For two hours the most extrava-

committees assure us that both are safe

numbers of which express gratitude for
this act which is surely a step towards the
realization OF some practical plan under
which one-half of our citizens (femalo

the elective franshise. can have the right
to say how and by whom their laws shall
be made, their country governed and their
sons and daughters protected.
An extract from a letter from a lady In
Kennebunk, Me-, expresses thanks for an
opportunity TO vote. When woman

FREE SILVER DEAD.
House Is Certain for Sound Money
and the Senate Nay BE Likewise.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Nov. From present
indications the Republican majority in the
House will be about thirty-hve. but an even
more magnificent result is the decrease, If
not the actual annihiliation of the free-sil-
yer majority in the Senate. The majority
on the last test vote was eleven. The indi-
cations tonight point to the election of
legislatures which will elect sound-money
Senators to succeed the following free sill
yer men:
Voorhees,. of Indiana.
Blackburn. of Kentucky.
Hansbrough, of North Dakota
Cameron, OF Pennsylvania.
Vest. of Missouri.
This means a change of ten votes in favor
of sound money. The new Senator TO be
elected from Delaware will. of course. be
for sound money, thus making the Senate
a tie with Vice President Hobart in the
chair. a pronounced gold man. Ii is evil
dent from this consideration that even If
Mr.. Vest is reelected. the free silver
strength will be so terribly cut down that
IL can no longer mold up all legislation
until a silver bill is passed. Free silver is
dead in the White House and at both ends
OF the Capital.
