FRANCIS JOSEPH AT 10.

Francis Joseph was only is when he
was proclaimed emperor, but the educa-
tion of the children of the Hapsburgs,
ever since the reign of Maria Teresa,
has been OF a singularly austere and
virile character calculated to ripen
them into manhood long before other
boys have abandoned the toys Of child
hood AS soon as they left the nursery

When Francis Joseph attained the
age OF rs ne was already an accom-
plshed lnguist and fairly well ac-
quainted with chemistry and natural
history. Then he gave his attention ex-
clusvely to Jurisprudence, philosophy
and diplomacy. under the direction of
the famous jurist Pilgrams, Cardinal
Rauscher and Metternlch. The long
list of his studies would appall the most
dilgent American student That the
assimilation of so many scientific, lin
guistic and military subjects did not
cost him his health was due to his pro-
digious memory, that royal attribute
which il is said. enables him to recog
nize the face of the humblest Of his sub
jects. though only seen once, after the
lapse of years.
The most important event i'm the En-
perors reign was his coronation at
Pesth. which was the symbol and con-
secration of the reconciliation of the
house of Hapsburg with the Hungarian
nation. The Magyars. who hold To all
medieval traditions more closely than
any other European country, believe
that the possession of legitimate her
editary right does not suffice to confer
the fullness Of royalty on their sover-
eign. He must also be the custodian OF
the crown of st. stephen, the contact of

authority. 1t is worth noting that the

titles OF Francis Joseph. belongs to him

OF St stephen, the first Hungarian

Republican. Assembly Also Chosen.
Election Results in Other States.

that Theodore Roosevelt, the Republi-
can nominee. has carried the state by
plurality over Augustus Van Wyck OF
about 20, 900. The total Republican vote,
when received, will probably show
falling off as compared with that for
Governor Black in 1896, of about IA per-
cent. In the municipality Of New York
the old time Democratic majority was
approximated. Van Wyck's vote being
about so 900 greater than that of the Re-
publican candidate. This latter result
was helped in some measure by the re-
suit in the borough OF Brooklyn (Kings
county,, which in 1896 gave Black a
plurality OF 23.6S2 but yesterday gave a
nocratic plurality or about 1880.
- ,ooklyn is the home OF Judge Van
Wy"k, but this fact does not wholly ex-
plt ~ the practical reversal of plurali-
tief. which, IL is possible, is attributable
to the lukewarmness OF the friends of
Jacob Worth, who was deposed from the
chairmanship OF the county committee
as a consequence Of his opposition to the
plans of Senator Platt in the mayoralty
gontest last year
The returns from many counties up
the state are incomplete. The indica-
tions being computations upon the
figures at hand. point to a Republican
plurality in the counties above the Bronx
river of about 100, 000 to offset which the
Democrats can produce only the $4,000
plurality of Greater New York.
The soldier vote will not be counted
until Dec. /, but ii is not likely that the
ballots from the camps will materially
alter the result. There would seem TO
be the greater probability that the plu-
rality for Roosevelt will be increased.
The figures on congressman are not
accessible yet, but there are indications
that the Democrats have made some
gains in New York city districts. The
majority OF Congressman Quigg in the
Fourteenth district was wiped out and
William Astor Chanler was elected.
Little is known as to the votes for state
senator's apd assemblymen. The Re-
publicans had in the last legislature a
majority OF 2S on joint ballot, and lead
ers OF the party profess confidence that
there will be no material diminution OF
that majority ARepubllcan Legislature

to the United. states senate in place OF

st. Paul. Nov. 9.-Both parties are
claiming the result on the state ticket.
On the legigJature the Democrats have
all along conceded the victory TO the Re-
publicans. Returns on congressman
are insufficient TO decide, although 1t Is
probable the Republicans have at teast
four delegates. probably more. APP
parently the result will be decided by the
country, as the two cities are about a
standoff.
st. Paul Nov. 9.-The Democratic state
committee claims the election Of Lind for
governor, but will give no figures. The
Globe-Democrat claims that he is elect
ed by 10000. The Republicans simply
say that the result is still in doubt; that
the returns are too meagre to decide the
result. They also claim all the con-
gressmen, although the Democrats are
positive they have the Seventh district
and possibly two others.

Indianapolis. Nov. 9.-Chairman Mar
tin OF the Democratic state committee

ficiently complete TO determine as TO the

elected congressman in the Sixth, Eighth,
Tenth. Eleventh and First districts,
though the last is not conceded. The
Democrats claim the Second, Third.
Fourth, Fifth, Seventh, Ninth, Twelfth
and Thirteenth districts. The legisla-
ture is still in doubt. 1t will be impos-
sible TO give reliable figures until late
today. Both parties claim all.
Chairman Martin Of the Democratic
committee expresses himself as conf
dent that the Democratic state ticket is
elected by about $1,000 majority, together
with majority OF the legislature. The
Republican chairman makes the same
claim for his side.

joTity. Essex county. which was con-
cededly the lighting ground of both

election OF Republican TO succeed

Kean is conceded TO be the choice OF the
Republicans as Senator Smiths sue
cessor. The Democrats have elected
two of the eight congressman. Salmon
in the Fourth district and DAILY in the
Seventh.
Only one state senator has been elected
by the Democrats. This will make the
senate stand IA Republicans 10 DEM
ocrats. The assembly will probably
stand 40 Republicans and 20 Democrats
This is allowing TO the Republicans the

PROBABLY THE TERESA.
Government Boats to Search For De-

Government Boats to Search For De-
relict OFF Cat Island.
Washington. Nov. "a message re-
ceived at the navy department from
Captain Crowinshield, chief of the navi-
cation bureau, who is in New York.
called attention to the report that the
Spanish cruiser Maria Teresa had been
seen off Cat island. The captain ex-
pressed his belief i'm the accuraoe Of the
report and suggested to the department
that the repair ship Vulcan. now at Nor
folk, be sent at once to make search for
the derelict. The telegram was sent TO
the commandant of the Norfolk navy
yard directing him 10 place the Vulcan
in command of Captain McCalla and
send her with all dispatch TO look for the
Teresa. A similar order was cabled to
Captain Converse at Guantanamo. di-
recting him TO send the big wrecking tug
Potomac from that place northward on
the same quest She goes in charge OF
Commander j. f. Craven.
II is the belief of naval constructors
that the Teresa took water aboard al
most altogether through the decks, and
not"through the hull as would appear
from the first accounts OF the loss of the
ship. These decks were rude temporary
constructions and were entirely insult
able for rough weather. The fact that
the reports indicate that the ship settled
by the head and that water ran into the
coal bunkers and thence into the fire
rooms goes TO bear out the constructors
theory.
The Vulcan was one of the vessels
which was towing the Teresa when she
was supposed TO have foundered.
Cat island lies about 30 miles south
west Of the spot where the Teresa was
last seen, and ii is said at the department
If the vessel did not founder outright
within a very few hours after having
been cut adrift she would almost GER
tainy have fetched upon the shoal beach
off Cat island for the wind and tide set
directly on that beach. n so. the To-
cation is much more favorable for saw
ing the ship than the position occupied
by her off Santiago. where the bottom
was covered with rocks and the wreck
ers worked at great disadvantage.
