turns in the east, middle west and
northwest show that the Republican
losses were in the cities, while the gains
were in the rural districts, and this en-
courages him to hope that when the re-
turns come in later from the country

to be lost may be saved to the Repubi-
cans. This is the case, for instance, in

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 9.-It was nearly
6 o'clock this morning before the re-.
turns from the last Philadelphia ward
was received and the net result was al
most as great surprise to the Repub-

tionists. When the ballots had been
counted it was found that Stone (Rep.)
had carried the city by plurality of
$1,000, which with his plurality in the
state outside of Philadelphia county
will probably run the Republican plu-
rality for the head of the ticket up to

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 9.-Returns from all
over Missouri are coming in very slowly
today, and though far from complete
everything points to the election of the
entire Democratic state ticket by at least
10000 majority, and the election of a
majority of the members Of the legis.
lature, insuring the reelection of Sena-
tor Cockrell. Three Republican con-
gressmen in st. Louis have been re.
elected. and it is probable that all the
10 congressional districts outside this

though final returns may change this
somewhat. In st: Louis the Repub-

Wyoming Goes Republican.

CHEYENNl4, Nov. 9.-Wyoming has
gone Republican on state and congress
sional tickets in majorities ranging
from 1000 to 1900 votes. The legis-

and will elect Republican senator to
succeed G. ID. Clark. Returns from 81
precincts out of 2S7 districts in the state
are now in. These gave $50 majority
for Nondell for congress in 1895 and
now give him 52a majority, a net gain
of 269 votes. In these precincts, Rich.
ards (Rep.J j, for governor, has 39i ma
jority, neU gain of 1874 votes. Returns
on state and congressional tickets in
Cheyenne are not yet complete, but the
count indicates Democratic gains in
this city over 1896. Twelve precincts out

Mondell 33 majority, now give him 106

Massachusetts,.

BOSTON, Nov 9.-After canvass
without state issues and confined almost
entirely to four congressional districts
and few local districts, the Republic
ans have again carried Massachusetts,
and elected Roger Wolcott governor for
the fourth time, as well as the entire
state ticket by a safe majority. Gov
ernor Wolcott's plurality over A. L.
Bruce, his Democratic opponent, will
be about 10000, or $1,000 less than his
lead last year. The vote this year was
much heavier than in 1897, and Mr..
Bruce made substantial gains over
George Fred Williams, the Democratic
candidate last year. AS in the last two
years, Governor Wolcott succeeded in
carrying Boston, which is usually
Democratic city. Nearly all the inter-
est in the campaign was confined to the
Fifth, Seventh, Ninth and Tenth con-
gressional districts, and both parties
fought hard on national issues, but the
Republicans lost two if not three of
their districts. The Tenth district went
Democratic and the Fifth district was
in doubt for some time. The Eighth
district, which was considered doubtful,
remained in the Republican ranks and
elected Ernest w. Roberts. The legis-
lature will BIZ but little changed from its
present list, namely, 1S1 Republicans,

Gil will also stand the same as last year,

DARTMOUTH FAVORED,
The Hanover collage sids Fair to Win
New England Foos Ball Championship,

The Hanover College Eids Fair to Win
New England Fool Ball Championship.
A foot ball campaign which to the par
Elephants and their adherents means quite
as much as the principal struggle among
the big college teams, is that waged by
Williams Dartmouth and Amherst The
first game of the New England Triangu-
lar League will be played next week and
indications point to another Dartmouth
victory at the end of the series.
Dartmouth has had decided monopoly
of the laurels in foot ball for the past six
years. In 1892 Amherst won the foot ball
championship, but since then the Han
over team has had matters more and
more its own way. The climax seemed TO
have been capped last season, when Dart
mouth defeated both Amherst and Will
Hams by over fifty points each. Dart
mouths eleven has been so much superior
TO the others for ayear or two that the
new condition of affairs gave rise to the
movement which favored a dissolution of
the league and the formation of a new
one, in which Dartmouth might meet
teams, in foot ball and track athletics,
that would be nearer its class In base
bali, Williams and Amherst as a rule
managed to hold their own.
Thus far during the present season,
however, Dartmouth has not shone at
the expense OF It's two Massachusetts
rivals, and in consequence, very little has
been heard of the projected movement.
Dartmouth is more on the level with
Williams and Amherst tnis fan and there
is no certainty regarding the way the
championship is likely to go. Williams and
Amherst are no stronger than usual, but
Dartmouth is weaker, although the
eleven is weak only by comparison with
last years team AS in the past, Amherst
is likely to prove a comparatively easy
problem for the New Hampshire boys to
solve, but Williams may cause trouble
ma al or nd
is surprising that better results have not
already been accomplished with ii than
those which the records show. If the
eleven can be developed up to a higher
standard, Dartmouths path to the cham
pionship will not be smooth On present
form, however. Dartmouth is the choice.

OLD GRADUATES BACK.
They Put in Some Hard Work on Yale
'VarsitY Men.


New Haven, Oct sl.-The Yale foot
ball eleven were coached this afternoon
by four old graduates. who have in
years past won fame on the gridiron.
Pa" Corbin, Laurie Bliss, Prof. Cor
win and John Han, who has had such
great success this year coaching the
Cafllsle indians, We're on the field. and
put IN a great deal of hard work with
me varsity players individually. Gov
ana Hubbell We're the only men Of the
varsity squad, however, who were nut
into the practice game that was play-
ed They were Dut in to be coached
az Following the ball down the field on
punts. The two scrub teams were
therefore worked for this Dlay most of
the time. For a few minutes Corlisy
sullivan, the ub-euarterback, was
put back Of the line to try for goal
from the field. He had poor success.
however, securing but one goal out of
three attempts.
Chamberlain and Alien coached the
tackles, and De Saulles also came on
the field for the first time since he
was injured two weeks ago. He is now
able to walk without the aid Of crllteh-
es, and his physician says that it will
only be matter of a few days before
ne can get into the practice He will
probably not play the game next sat
urday, but go into practice the follow
ing week in preparation for the Prince
ton game. This turn Of events is very
encouraging to the other players and
the student body. It has evidently put
new hope into the whole squad. From
now on with a respectable corps OF
coaches on hand to help the men settle
down to genuine hard training. there
seems to be but little doubt that the
annual whipping into shape of the Yale
eleven will proceed successfully. Other
coaches are expected before the end
of the week, and next week viii see
one man here for each man on the elev-
en-
