Key to San Juan Road Encircled by Amer
ican Troops.
New York, Aug. 5-A Journal special
from Ponce states that the American
forces are now in front and IN the rear
of the Spanish concentrated in Aibonito.
Five thousand Spanish have invested the
city with the purpose of holding the
road to San Juan. The decisive battle of
the Porto Rican compaign will be fought
at this point within few days.
The flank movement was accomplished
by Gen. Brooke, who landed with his
troops at Guayama and advanced by the
mountain road over the Terrific pass to
the rear of the Spanish troops at Aibon-
ito. The city commands the approach
to a most important pass on the road to
San Juan.
The attacking force is 2S miles on the
advance. When the Spanish yield this
point, they will lose one of the most i'm
portant strategic points on the island.

HAYWARD is AHEAD.
Late Returns Indicate Nebraska Has
Landed In Republican Column.
LEADS BY FOUR THOUSAND.
Majority in the Legislature is Claimed by
the Republicans-Burkett Elected
to Congress in the First and
Mercer in the Second.

LINCOLN, Nov. 9.-Belated precinct
returns today continue to indicate that
Nebraska has turned a political somer-
sault and landed in the Republican col
umn. Three hundred and seventeen
precints outside of Lincoln and Omaha,
give Hayward (Rep.), for governor, 3d.
494; Poynter (fusion), 26,362; a net Re-
publican gain of 4,7S7. If this gain is
maintained Hayward will carry the
state by over 1000. Figures on legis.
lative candidates are not such as to
make comparisons possible, but show
that they shared equally with the gov
ernor. In few counties which went
fusion on the state ticket, the Repub-
ican legislative candidates are elected,
which makes the claim that the legis-
lature on joint ballot is Republican a
conservative one. The First and Sec
ond congressional districts are Repub-
ican, the Third and Sixth fusion and
the Fourth and Fifth in doubt.
At noon the Republican state COM
mittee claimed the election of Hayward
by 5000, with the balance of the state
ticket following closely. The estimate
is that there. will be 73 Republicans on a
joint ballot in the legislature. The
election t Hinsbaw in the Fourth dis
trict is claimed. Little can be learned
from the Third and Sixth districts.
Burkett appears to have carried every
county in the First, with total major
ity of $500. Republicans believe that
the entire state ticket is victorious.
At fusion headquarters there is a
frank admission that there has been a
landslide, although the election of the
fusion ticket is still claimed.

Both Sides Still Claim Majority In
the House.
NEXT SENATE REPUBLICAN.
In 314 Congressional Districts Republl-
cans Have Elected 157, Democratic
ISL and Fusionists 6, With As
Districts to Hear From.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-The Associated
Press has received definite information
as to the result in 3l4 of the 357 con-
gressional districts. The Republicans
have elected 157, the Democrats 151 and
the fusionists and Populists 6. This
leaves 43 districts in which the figures
available at 1870 p. IN. today were not
sufficient to justify more than the use
Of the word probable. At that hour
the doubtful districts were thus located;
California, 6; Idaho, 1; Indiana, 6; Kan
sas, s; Kentucky, 1; Minnesota, l; Mis-
souri,, 8; Nebraska, Q; North Dakota, l.;
Ohio, i; Pennsylvania. 8; South Da-
kota, q; Texas, 1; Washin ,ton, 2; West
Virginia, L; Wisconsin, 1; Wyoming, /.
Late returns received by the Associ-
ated Press indicate the election of 167
Republicans and 164 Democrats, Popu-
lists or silver Republicans, with 26 dis
tricts in the doubtful column.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Interest in
the election today centered in the polit-
ical complexion of the next house, the
senate being conceded to be Republi.
can. Although Chairman Babcock of
the Republican congressional commit
tee did not leave his headquarters until
after A o'clock this morning, he was
back again at his desk shortly after 8
o'clock dispatching kilograms to all the
doubtful districts urging the chairmen
to hurry in the returns. Mr.. Babcock,
in his figures, takes nothing for granted.
This morning he made what he termed
an ultra conservative estimate, in
which he eliminated number of doubt
full districts. This estimate gives the
Republicans 1876 members in the next
house, a majority of 13 over all. The
states he is most anxious to hear from
are Illinois and Indiana, and last night
he figured the defeat Of Boutell in Illi-
nois. Thi; morning he says he finds
that the Chicago congressman has pulled
through, but this gain is offset
by the unexpected defeat of Williams in
the Twelfth Pennsylvania. J. L. Bris-
tow wired that Kansas would send six
Republicans and that Long had defeated
Simpson, but the defeat of Simpson Mr..
Babcock declines to credit until he re-
ceives further advices. Chairman
Green of the Texas state committee
claims three Republicans in the Lone
Star state, but Mr.. Babcock only fig
ures on the election of one, Hawley, in
the Tenth. From Indiana no satisfac-
tory advices on the doubtful congress
sional districts have arrived, hut Mr..
Babcock, in his calculations, admits the
loss of two districts, those of Farris and
Lands, either of which may have been
carried by the Republicans. He figures
certain loss of three districts in I'LL,
nois, leaving two doubtful. Brumm,

LITTLE Rock, Nov. 9.-Congressional
