RUSSIAN TASTE.

Russian imperial residences rarely
have enough light, and the doors are
ludicrously insufficient. The Care
vitch's apartments in the Winter Pal
ace have only one window each, and
all look the same way 1t seems a
curious taste that preserves among
the gorgeous state carriages of the
Russian imperial family the shabby
sleigh, stained with blood, which con-
veyed Alexander IL back to the Winter
Palace after he had been torn to death
by bomb. His last half-smoked Gig
arctic is there, and the Cars writing
table just as he left it.

This is the sentiment of quite number in

missing altogether. The indications,
being computations upon the figures at
hand, point to Republican plurality
in the counties above the Harlem of
about 100000, to offset which the DEM
ocrats can produce only the $4,000 plu-
rality of Greater New York.
The soldier vote will not be counted
until Dec. !, but 1t is not likely that the
ballots from the camps will materially
alter the result. There would seem to
be the greater probability that the ma
jority for Roosevelt will be increased.
The Republicans had in the laNt leg
islature a majority of 2S on joift bal
lot and leaders of the party assert that
there will be no material diminution of
that majority. A Republican legisla-
ture will mean the election of a Repub-
lican to the United States senate in
place of Senator Murphy.
Every condition was favorable to the
polling of a full vote in all parts of the
state. In this city there was no fulfill
ment of predictions of trouble at the
polls. The state deputies authorized by
act of the last legislature were most in
evidence in the east side districts, where
the cheap lodging houses are located.
The number of arrests made was below
rather tnan beyond the usual record OF
a general election, and in many cases
the occasion was found to be in the
carelessness of registration clerks.
Fights at the polls We're few and easily
quelled. There was no friction between
deputies and police, one lending assist
ance to the other in the preservation Of
order.
On the streets down town there were
the usual election night noises and
scenes. Returns We're displayed In front
of the newspaper Offices and in numer-
Gus public places. Democrats good ma
turedly accepted the fact of the defeat
Of their stete ticket, which was appar-
ent from the returns displayed early in
the evening, and found what compen-
sation they could in the result in the
city.

New Haven, Nov. 9.-The result Of
the election in this state shows a gen.
eral victory for the Republican ticket
The majorities OF the candidates on the
state ticket will average fully $4,000
with some changes likely when remote
districts are officially heard from. The
vote shows falling off of about 5000
from that cast at the election of two
years aSo. The Republican candidates
appear to have suffered most from the
general decrease in the vote, but no par
ticular disaffection can be said to be
shown by the general result. The only
real contest was in the Second district,
where Congressman N. D. Sperry, the
Republican nominee, and James H.
Webb Oem.I were the opposing candi-
dates. Webb succeeded in cutting Sper-
rvs majority of two years ago to a con-
siderable extent, but the Republicans
claim the election of their candidate by
q safe majority. The returns indicate
that the Republicans will have a ma
jority of at least so in the general as
sembly.
The returns also indicate that the Re-
publicans have elected their candidates

"The Republicans have lost control of

THE Republicans have lost control Of
the house of representatives. We will
have from 1856 to 1870 members and will
organize the house of the Fifty-sixth
congress. The majority of the opposi-
tion will be from 15 to 20 over the Re-
publicans and perhaps more. Our ad-
vices indicate Democratic gains in some
of the states as follows: Alabama, 2; IL
linois, 5; Iowa, l; Kentucky, 8; Mary

New Jersey, 2; New York, 6; North

STATEMENTS MADE BY LEADERS.

MIR. Bnbcock Sticks to His Prediction
of II Republican Majority of Twsn-
ty-fve, While MIR. Kerr, Democrat,
Claims From Fifteen to Twenty.
Washington, Nov. 9.-Chairman Bah
cock of the Republican congressional
committee has just made the following
statement:
while l am satisfied that the Repub-
licans will control the house of repre-
sentatives in the Fifty-siXth congress.
1t is impossible at this hour to indicate
what our majority in the house will be.
Thus far we have no definite returns
from Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa or Kansas. Ohio has elected Is
Republicans certainly, and two districts
seem to be in doubt. From Michigan the
returns indicate solid Republican dele
cation. Representative Hawley Is re-
elected in Texas. Vincent Boerlng is
elected in the Eleventh Kentucky dis
trict. s. J. Hugh is probably elected in
the Ninth Kentucky. The election of
George M. Dawson in the Eighth Ken
lucky is in doubt, with chances SEEM
ingly in favor of his election. A dispatch
from Maryland shows that we have
elected four representatives certainly.
Nineteen members of the delegation
from New York state and perhaps more
will be Republicans. I. F. Fischer OF the
Fourth New York district, Brooklyn. is
the only member we have elected in
Greater New York. The election of
Cochran in the Nineteenth New York
and of Mahany in the Thirty-second
(Buffalo) district is in doubt. From
Pennsylvania we have thus far received
meager returns, but the indications are
that we have sustained some losses
there. Kirkpatrick of the Eighth dis
trict and Arnold of the Thirty-eighth
seem to be defeated. Unofficial advices
from western states show that we have
more than held our own, and my con-
viction is that we shall control the
house by a safe majority. probably not
far from the figures which I gave out
last week.
The figures referred to by Mr.. Bah
cock were contained in his predictions
that the Republicans would have a ma
jority over all of about rs.
Since early last evening Secretary
Kerr Of the Democratic congressional
