DIES MONIES, Ia, Nov. Returns were slow
in reaching the headquarters of the state CEN
trail committee Wednesday. Chairman McMil-
len, of the republican committee, contends that
Shaw'S plurality will reach more than 10000.
Reports received from 30 counties give Shaw
plurality of 1920, and the estimates of three Of
the republican committee is that the other 40
will not do as well. 1t is expected by
Chairman McMillen that the plurality will
reach L, 900 to 1900 more when returns are re-
ceived from the entire state. AS to the legisla-
ture the republicans claim GO in the house out
of 100 and 40 out of 80 in the senate.
Chairman McMillen's estimate of the vote is:
Republicans. go, 900; democrats, 100000; prohi-
bitiOn. 1000; gold democratic, 5000; populist,
5000.
DEsMoINEs. Ia, Nov. 4.-The election by
counties are nearly in now. Chairman Mcmillan,
| of the republican state committee, has complete
returns from "a counties and has estimated re-
| turns from the five remaining counties. By
| this means he has figured q plurality for Shaw
| (rep.) of about g., 1872. He thinks that these
| figures will vary but little from the corrected
! returns when the five estimated counties come
in, the plurality may be set down as above 81,
| 600 and below $1,000. Chairman Walsh, of the
| democratic state committee, has given out no
| figures Wednesday night. He thinks that
| errors in the returns may reduce the plurality
| for Shaw to 10000.
| The republican plurality last year was 65. 522,
| dccoruIhS 10. republican estimates; IS Inere-
| fore, just about cut in two. Two years ago it
| was 5000 for Drake for governor. Then the
| populist have separate ticket. If the popu-
! list vote be Subtracted, the republicans will
| have a larger plurality this year than two
years ago. The legislature is safely republican.
| The senate has 80 members of which 80 repub-
| licanS, which leaves 12populists and democrats.
| The house has 100 members of whom the re-
publicans have elected 81 and Inc populists
and democrats 49, These figures are subject TO
! slight variations, probably 10 advantage of the
/ democrats.
/ The republicans lost four members in the
senate and II in the house compared with the
last legislature which was Overwhelmingly re-
publican.
The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1897-11-05

An exceptionally large vote was polled, de-
spite the 1ncement weather, the figures now at
hand indicating that $4,000 ballots were cast
out of total registration of SCI, sos: There
were comparatively few split tickets, a vast
majority of the voters voting their party tick
cts straight.
NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-The latest returns on
members of the general assembly dover house
of state legislature) give the republicans a
majority of II in total membership of 49, In
the last assembly the republican majority was
78. Three citizens union nominees were elect
ed in this city. The senate which holds over
has republican majority of 20.
ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 4.-The cOmpletA1 re-
turns from the state are coming in slowly dur
ing the early hours of the morning, and dem
onStrate that the republican landslides of the
past two years have been reversed, If not by
giving as large majority for the democrats, at
least by changing something like 2400O0 votes.
Gov. Blacks plurality in the state
last year was over 100000 John
Palmer, the republican secretary of state, won
the year previous by over 100000 The indica-
tions are that these enormous plaraltieS have
been swept away and reverse plurality of S.
159 is given for Parker The greatest sur
priSeS of the returns are the great gains
made in the assembly by the democrats,
many of them being in counties
and districts where there was no eXpecta-
ton on the part of democratic managers Of
winning. Republicans explain these gains by
attributing them to the heated municipal cam
paigns and the trading of votes. The morning
returns indicate that the republicans win still
control the assembly although by very 1eage-
ly decreased majority.
NEW YORK, Nov 1.-The Press wednesday
morning says that the new state house of as
sembly will consist of 40 republicans and II

out of.67 counties in Pennsylvania indicate that
DR.. s. r. Swallow (pro.) carried the counties of

The incomplete figures show an apparent
plurality for Beacon for treasurer. the head Of
the republican ticket, of 600 against Hay
woods plurality of 1864 in 1895. The indica-
lions are that McCauley, the republican candi-
date for auditor general, received about II 600

KANSAS,

Topeka, Nov. AT a late hour Wednesday
night the returns from Tuesdays election were
still very incomplete. The indications are that
the republicans have elected of ID district
Judges voted for. Among republican leaders here
1t IS positively claimed that the republicans
have elected 10 of the judges and they concede
TO the fuSiOniStS. On the other hand the
fuSloniStS claim to have been successful in OF
the judicial districts but no figures are given
out. Incomplete and unofficial returns
from 80 of the los counties of the state
would indicate republican victories in almost
half of the county elections. The returns show
that in 40 counties the republicans have elect
ed all or nearly all of their candidates for cOun-
ty offices. In IA counties the fuSioniSts have
elected all or nearly all of their candidates. In
20 counties the offices are about evenly divided
between the fuSioniStS and the republicans.
In one county straight democratic
ticket was elected. However, in the face
OF this apparent success of the
republicans in almost half of the coun-
ties, Taylor Riddle, chairman Of the populist
state organization issued a statement Wednes-
day night in which he shows that previous to
Tuesdays election the populist held only 1874
out of over 700 county Offices which were filled
by the election, and which he claims that the
elections show that the populists have increas-
ed their number of Office holders to at least 800
and possibly S75.
In Barber county, the home OF Jerry Simp-
son, the republicans scored clean sweep.

NEW JERSEY.

TRENTON, Nov. 4.-The New Jersey assem-
bly, will have a republican majority of 81 on

ent counties show that the democrats have
elected senators in Burlington, Huntington
PasSaic and Sussex counties, and that RObt E.
Hand, rep, is elected senator from Cape May
by about 250 majority. This gives us a major
ity of one in the house and either seven or nine
on joint ballot

LEXINGTON, KY, Oct 4.-Chairman John
stOn, of the democratic executive committee
said to a reporter at noon Wednesday that
ShackelfOrd, the democratic candidate for
clerk of the court of appeals. is elected by not
less than $1,000 majority. OF 10 state senators
elected Tuesday Chairman Johnston claims ID
are democratic. They hold over till 1900, when
q successor of United States Senator Lindsay
will be chosen. Ex-senator Blackburn an
nounced his candidacy Wednesday to succeed
Lindsay.
LEXINGTON, Ky. Nov. 4,-The headquarters
of the democratic state chairman were not
open Wednesday night and no returns were
received. There is little interest in the size Of
Shacklefords majority, as it is conceded to be
somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,000. The
democrats have won or increased their
vote everywhere. The issues were local,

afternoon. The miners assembled to
the surface at once. Later it was dis
covered that Frank Stanton, agent of
the mine, with his father, John STAN
ton, of New York, secretary of the
company, and VIM. Paine, of Boston,
were still in the mine. A relief party
descended into the m'H9 and by almost

prisoned men who we're well nigh ex-
hausted. The mine openings have all
been sealed air tight and the fire will

MARYLAND.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 4-Chairman Vandiver,
of the democratic state central committee said
at noon Wednesday that the result on the
legislative ticket in Maryland now depends on
a single vote. He has cOuuted IS as being GER
tain in the democratic column. and expects to
get one from Montgomery county to make it
certain. Calvert county is also to be heard
from and he has strong hopes of carrying it.
Later adviceS place Anne Arundel safely in the
democratic column, but telephone message
from Attorney General Clabough says that
Carroll county is so close as to require an OFF,
cial count to determine the result. The demo-
Gratis however insist that they will get At
least three votes there.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 4-The result of the
elections in Ohio is still in doubt. With more
complete returns Wednesday thanwere obtain
able Tuesday night, it is evident that it will
require the official count to satisfy the conteS-
tants. The more the respective parties figure
on their returns, the smaller their
pluralitieS seem TO become While
their claims increase in opposite
directions. The cloSeness Of the vote has
caused intense feeling and the usual cry Of
fraud. When the result was in doubt in 1885 1t
was discovered that the talley sheets were
forged. Tuesday night the republicans tele-
graphed to all their county committees to be-
ware of the frauds of 1885. And when the repub-
licans were claiming the legislature by
one or two majority on joint ballot, the
democrats telegraphed their county commit
tees to prepare for all sorts of fraud and to
remember that it was by majority of one by
which the great crime of 1877 was committed
that defeated Tilden. The state headquarters
will be kept open all week, or until the Official
counts are made in all of the SO counties of the
state. 1t is expected that there will be trouble
in some of the close counties. There will no
doubt be much agitation in all of them We'd
nesday.
