MINNESOTA.

ST. PAUL, Nov S-The result in Minnesota is very much in doubt, but at midnight the State Is being placed in the Democratic column, at least so far as the Governor is concerned. Eustis, the Republican candidate, ran behind his ticket in most of those precincts where the vote on all the candidates has been given, so that the fact that much fuller returns will be needed to decide between the gubernatorial can didates is looked on as presumptive evidence that the rest of the Republi- can ticket is probably elected. The Legislature, which will elect a sue cessor to Senator Davis, is concededly Republican. The Republicans have certainly elected four Congressmen, the other three being doubtful rather than positively Democratic. In fact, the Democrats have about abandoned their claim that Heatwole is defeated by their candidate in the Third, while some of the later returns from the Sixth and Seventh districts are very favorable to Morris and Eddy.

and it is the belief that Hayward Is running slightly ahead of his ticket, which makes the results on remaining State offices very close. The most sur prising feature of it all Is the strength displayed by Republican legislative candidates, the full returns received showing them to be even ahead of Hay ward. AS these are from but one or two counties, however. they fail to in dicate assuredly the complexion of the Legislature.
 At midnight, Chairman Slaughter of the Republican State Committee said: I've have elected the entire Republican ticket by pluralities of not less than 5000, and possibly to exceed 5000. we will have a majority of the Leg1sla- ture on joint ballot and will elect a Republican United States Senator to succeed Senator Allen. We have elected three Congressman and probably four of the six"
 The fusion committee made no state ment, further than to insist that they had carried the State and Legislature.
 One hundred and thirty-two precincts outside of Lincoln and Omaha snow net Republican gain of 2132.
 Lincoln and Lancaster counties show a Republican gain (estimated) of 600. Chairman Slaughter says the average Republican gain to the precinct is 10. A gain of to the precinct would mean Republican success.

DETROIT, Nov. S.-Governor Pin gree held his own tolerably well in to- days election. At 10 o'clock tonight the Republican State Committee claimed his election by from 50,00O to 60.000 majority. The Democratic State Committee do not yet concede defeat. The Governor ran several hundred ahead of his ticket in Detroit, and ran up plurality of 2000 in Grand Rapids. In Saginaw he doubled on his plurality of 1896. In Jackson, Lansing, Bay City and other smaller cities he was cut con- siderably, but the country districts sur rounding went quite strongly fer him. The balance of the Republican State ticket is elected.
 The upper peninsula gave its usual Republicn majority, but there was a great amount of splitting on Governor in the lower peninsula The vote on Congressmen is close in half of the twelve districts, the others returning Republicans with certainty.
 The Legislature will have a Repub- lican majority, but whether Pingree or anti on the equal taxation issue is as yet undetermined

CONNECTICUT.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Nov. S.-Thc result of the election in this State to- day was a victory for the Republican ticket. Complete returns from sixty-five towns of 106 in the State give Lounsbery (R.). 75,057; Morgan (D.), 5S.406.
 The same towns in 1896 gave Cooke (R.). 100. 999; Sargent (D.), 51,396.
 The majorities of candidates on the State ticket will average fully 15,0OO.
 The Republican candidates appear to have suffered most from the general de- crease in the vote, but no particular dissatisfaction can be said to be shown by the general result. The only real contest was in the Second District. where Congressman Sperry, the Re publican nominee, and James H. Webb were the opposing candidates. Sperry' s majority will be about 3325.
 Returns indicate that the Republi- cans will have a majority of at least fifty in the General Assembly.

MARYLAND.

BALTIMORE, Nov. S.-Full and semi-official returns from the city of Baltimore and partial returns from the balance of the State make it reason- ably certain that Maryland has re- turned four Republicans and two Dem ocratic Congressmen, after an extraor- dinarily close but entirely listless election. This is a Democratic gain of two.
 The Democrats succeeded in obtain ing a majority of the popular vote i'll Baltimore city for the first time in six years and there is but little doubt they would have sent five Congressman to the next national legislature if an ac- tive and aggressive campaign had been made The entire delegation, with the exception of Messrs. Mudd and Baker, are new timber and are looked upon as favoring gold standard of cur rency.

KENTUCKY.

LOUISVILLE, Nov. 8.-The Demo- crats of Kentucky to-day carried nine and possibly ten of the eleven Con- gressfonal districts in the State-a gain of two or perhaps three over their last delegation. The Republicans carried only one district, the Eleventh, solidly, but this was always conceded by their opponents, as it has been a Republican stronghold for years. In the Ninth District the race between Pugh (R.) and Williams (D.) is very close, both sides claiming it. The Republicans In the Fifth Louisville) District talk of contesting the election of Turner (D.). The vote throughout the State was the lightest known in years

WYOMING.

CHEYENNE, Wyo.. Nov. 9.-The fol- lowing signed statements of the politi- cal situation were handed the corres- pondents of the Associated Press at 11:45 o'clock tonight:
 Returns are coming in very slowly; twenty precincts only have been hear heard enne. They show heavy Republican gains over 1886 for Mondell for Congress and the State ticket is running with Mondell, excepting that Richards (R),. for Gov ernor, is running slightly behind his ticket in this Garamie) county, where there Is a slight falling off. Indications are that Mondell is elected by large plurality and that the entire State ticket is elected by smaller pluralities,

 The entire Republican State ticket is elected by over 3O000 plurality. In Cook County the vote has been very close, the Republicans carrying the county and the Democrats the city of Chicago.
