Latest Returns From the States.
New York, Nov. 10 1.-The latest
figures obtainable show that Roose-
velts plurality in the state is not far
from 20, 900. The result on congress-
men in this state seems to have sur.
prised even the democrats themselves.
Nineteen of their candidates were
elected, the publicans getting but 10.
In the present house, the New York
delegation stands 81 republicans to six
democrats. The state senate will be
republican by four aud the assem- bly,
by 20. Political interest from now on
will center about the senatorship and
already discussion as TO the probable
aspirants has begun.

publicans have carried Indiana by IA
majority of between 10, 900 and 10000.

turns, shows that in the senate the re-
publicans will have 80 and the demo-
