Mr.. Bryan at noon gave the following
statement:
1.-The returns are 50 incomplete that 1t is
impossible to discuss the election in de-
tail. The republicans everywhere Endorsed
the republican administration. and in view
of losses sustained by them in almost every
state 1t would seem that republican poli-
cies are not being Endorsed at the polls.
The sentiment in favor Of the Chicago
platform shows a healthy growth through
out the country. Perhaps our opponents
will not admit that silver is not dead. The
attempt to secure international bimetal-
lism has proved failure and 1t is now more
apparent than ever that the people of the
United States must legislate for themselves
on the financial question. Free and unlim-
tied coinage at sixteen to one is nearer
now than 1t was year ago. High tariff
upon a gold basis has disappointed those
republicans who looked to it for relief
Taken as a whole the returns are very
encouraging. 1 think voice the senti-
ments of democrats. populists and silver
republicans, when say that the fight will
be continued with even more earnestness
until the gold monopoly is broken and the
money trust is overthrow. The fusion
forces increase their percentage in Ne
braska and probably their actual majority.

''In remembrance of Gods goodness to

so abundant, Let us offer unto Him our

IOWA ELECTS SHAW.
Ills Plurality IL between 10000 and
$4,000.


Des Moines, Ia Nov. 4.-The Register
figures out a republican plurality Of 49,
600. These figures are based on practically
complete returns. This will give Shaw
majority of nearly 10000, which is in ex-
cess Of that of two years ago. The returns
by counties are nearly all in now. Chair
man Mcmillan, of the republican state com-
mittee, has complete returns from "a coun-
ties and has estimated returns from the
five remaining counties. By this means he
has figured a plurality for Shaw (rep.) Of
about 31,7S2 He thinks these figures will
vary but little as the corrected returns for
the five estimated counties come in. The
plurality may be set down as above s., 900
and below $4,000. Chairman Walsh, Of
the democratic state committee, has given
out no figures. He thinks that errors In
the returns may reduce the plurality for
Shaw to 10000.
The republican plurality last year was
65,522. according to republican estimates; 1t
is. therefore. just about cut in two. Two
years ago 1t was $4,000 for Drake for gov
ernor. Then the populists had separate
ticket. If the popullsts votes be sub
tracted, the republicans would have .
larger plurality this year than two years
ago. The legislature is safely republican.
The senate has 50 members, Of which 3S are
republicans and IL populists and demo-
Gratis The house has 100 members Of whom
the republicans have elected 81 and the pop
ulists and democrats 49, These flgupres
are subjevt to slight variations, probably
to the advantage of the democrats, but they
are essentially safe. The republicans lost
four members In the senate and II in the
house, compared with the last legislature,
which was overwhelmingly republican.

inability of the company to meet its
