WASHINGTON, ID. c.. November g.
Especial. ).-The day after the eiec'iohs III
the national capital is clear, bright, ana
blustery, but the Department hepuoh-
cans are dull. depressed, and gloomy
They are downcast over the results in
MARYLAND and Kentucky. and the mar
row escape from ignominious deteat Oh
Hanna. in Ohio. The administration mas
been severely rebuked. both In Mckin-
lev's own State and in all other states
where elections were held yesterday
Where the Democrats were not victoH-
Gus they made great gains. and IL
predicted that the lesson OF yesterday
will have a salutary effect in giving the
country a somewhat cleaner and more
| conservative administration of arairs'
and will probably free it from the domi-
| nation OF Hanna. Mr.. Mckinley no
| doubt realizes that 1t was the Hannalsm
| in his government that aroused such
fierce opposition among the people, not
only those of the Democratic, but those
| of the Republican party. 1t Is assert
| ed that the appointment OF all the ne
GRO nostmasters I'm the South was due
TO the insistence of Hanna, who had
promised them the positions as re-
ward for their votes for Mckinley at
the St. Louis convention
The result In Virginia, which was
| foregone conclusion. occasioned no sur
prise here. as. no matter how great the
| Democratic apathy. it was predicted
that the McCaull ticket would not get
| 20 900 votes in the State, and there were
several bets made on that figure. rms
! inqlorious defeat Of the Lamb Repubi-
| can faction IS, of course. triumph TOT
the Agnew-W acknowledgements ma
chine committee. and as soon as inc
| administration settles down to business
| again, the machine committee WILL no
doubt. put in an appearance here, ana
| boldly present it's slate for the patronage
in the State. and any foreign appoint
ments that may fall to the share OF VIZ
| qiria These latter will be exceedingly
few. but the Federal offices, and those
| subordinate to them, will nave 10 DO
| filed. as the terms of the incumbents are
already beginning to expire.
WESTERN MARSHALSHIP.
The marshaIship of the Western Dis
| first appointments made. and IL is saIe
| to saw that the lucky man Will not be
! tho candidate of General James A.
| Walker-J. Henry Brown, Of Tazewell
county. General Walker is member
of the machine committee, but ne mas
| always been at war with the majority
| Of its members, as has also Congressman
Yost. Walker and Yost both supported
the I.amb-McCaull ticket. Both nave
candidates for the offices OF District-At-
torney and Marshal of the western DIS,
trict but II is not likely that they wiz
be rewarded for their activity In behalf
of the boiling faction of the party.
IT is the confident belief that ;.
Brown Allen. of Augusta county, Will
be the Marshal. though he is opposed by
Yost. and is from his district.
