been sent by the War Department to Cen
eral Brooke, who, it is expected, will ar

ports which conveyed the troops of the
Porto Rican expedition as soon as possible
The transports will be returned to New

sending of additional troops to Porto Rico.

desirable to add to the expedition already
sent to Porto Rico.

600 Citizens of Wilmington, N.
c., Resolve to Drive Out
Negroes.

Washington, Nov. "a special to the
Star today from Wilmington, N. C.,
gives the details of a mass meeting OF
600 citizens of that city at the court
house there today to assert the SUI
premacy of the white man. Ex-Repre-
sentative Waddell presided and read a
series of resolutions reciting the de-
termination of the white citizens to
forever rule the city and to commence
the work Immediately, declaring that
hereafter white labor should be given
preference over colored and calling for
the Punishment of Alex. Manley, the
negro newspaper publisher, who printed
an Objectionable editorial recently.
An amendment was offered calling on
the mayor and chief of police and board
of aldermen to vacate their offices now
instead of waiting until their terms ex-
pire in March. These resolutions were
referred to a committee and while
awaiting its report several speeches
were made, one of the speakers, Repre-
pulsion of Manley in twelve hours, but
counselling moderation in othe re-
Spects.
The committee soon reported it's con-
clusiOns favOring the expulsion of Man
ley as proposed; urging the employ
ment of white labor as far possible
and a resolution reciting that the mayor
and chief of police having demonstrated
their incapacity and their continuance
in office being a menace, they should
resign. The report was unanimously
adopted and a committee of 25 was ap-
pointed to carry into effect the resolu-
tons adopted.
It is understood that Marley has al
ready left the city. The mayor and
chief of police say they will not resign
as the resolutions call for but will serve
out their terms.

way from that estimate The Demo-
cratic state committee concede that the
Republicans have won in the state.
Large Democratic gains are shown by
some counties, while other counties
show large Republican gains.
The vote on congressman has come in
slowly but such returns as have been
received indicate that the Republicans
have won in all the districts except the
Second, Third, Fourth and Twelfth.
Some doubt as to the result in the Fifth
and Eighth districts is still expressed
by the Democrats.
From the returns at hand, it would
appear that the Republicans will have q
majority in both branches of the legis-
lature and a majority on joint ballot Of

county in the state indicate the election
of Whittemore (Rep) for state treas

of the returns are complete. The ma
jority for other Republican candidates
will probably exceed that for White
more, as he was cut heavily in Cook
county including Chicago. Enough leg
islative returns have been received to
show that the lower house will be Dem
ocratic by about six votes, and the sem
ate Republican by about eleven votes.

Looks as Though Republicans Would
Control

Washington, Nov 9-The states to
elect senators in which Republican leg
islatures appear to be assured are
Michigan, Minnesota, Delaware, Con-
necticut, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, New
York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
California Five of these states are now
give way to Republicans, namely: Gray
of Delaware, Mitchell of Wisconsin,
Murphy of New York, Smith of New
Jersey and White of California.
The other five states are now repre-
scented by Republicans, viz: Burrows of
Michigan, Davis of Minnesota, HaWley
of Connecticut, Lodge of Massachusetts
and Quay of Pennsylvania. Besides the
foregoing the reports indicate a prob
ability of Republican legislatures in
Wyoming and North Dakota This
would bring about the retirement of
Democratic Senator Roach of North
Dakota and the reelection of Clark of
Wyoming, or some other Republican.
The states electing Democratic legis-
latures, according to present reports are
Tennessee, Missouri, Texas and Florida.
These are already represented by Dem
ocrats, so that no political change is
effected. The present Democratic in
cumbentS are Bates of Tennessee,
COckreL of Missouri, Mills of Texas and
Pasco of Florida.
The reports state Utah is also likely
to have a Democratic legislature Mr.
Cannon of Utah who will retire, is a
silver Republican. Nevada reports in
dictate a legislature which will re-elect
Stewart, silver Republican.
The legislatures which continue to be
in doubt are Nebraska, West Virginia
Indiana, Montana and Washington.
The Republican chairman claims Ne

safely republican in the legislature. In
West Virginia now represented by

men claim the legislature. From Mon

can be drawn. In Washington the re-
ports give the legislature as painfully

Philadelphia. Nov. 9.-It was nearly
o'clock this morning before the returns
from the last Philadelphia ward were
received and the net result was almost
as great a surprise to the Republicans
as to Democrats and Prohibitionlsts.
When the ballots had been counted 1t
was found that Stone, Republican, had
carried the city by a plurality of $4,000,
which with his plurality IN the state
outside of Philadelphia county will pro-
badly run the Republican plurality for
the head of the ticket up to 10000 over
jerks Democrat.
Late returns from the Twelfth con-
sgressional district show that Stanley
Davenport, Democrat, has prOably been
elected by a small plurality over Nor
gan B. Williams, Republican, the pres
ent member.
Philadelphia, Nov. Sin the five con-
gressional districts of Philadelphia the
present members are all reelected as
follows: First district, H. H. Bingham,
Republican; Second, Robert Adams, jr.,
Republican; Third, William McAleer,
Democrat; Fourth, James R. Young,
Republican; Fifth, A. c. Harmer, Re
publican.
McAleer had no opposition, having
been endorsed by the Republicans.
Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-JOseph G. Sib-
ley, Democrat, is elected to congress
from the TWenty-SeVenth district.
Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-The next Penn
sylvania legislature which meets in
January and elects a successor to Sen
ator Quay will consist of 254 memb ers
on joint ballot, 12S votes being neceS-
sary to elect a senator The friends Of
Senator Quay claim today that they
have 131 votes on joint ballot for NJ. S.
Quay, 8 more than is necessary to elect.
This estimate they say, is independent
of the members favorable to Senator
Magee in Allegheny county and the
followers of David Martin in Phila-
delphia.
The anti Quay people in this city dis
pute these figures and claim that they
have elected sufficient members of the
assembly to defeat the reelection Of
Senator Quay.
Senator Quay in a telegram from his
home this morning conceded the election
of two Democrats to the legislature
from his home county of Beaver by 400
majority. This is a Democratic gain.
