sANTIAGO'S WATER PROBLEM.
General Wood Will Seek to Obviate
the Necessity of Selling Water
In the Streets.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Nov. s.-The
main question now before General Leonard
Wood governor of the military district Of
Santiago, is not political. 1t is the ques-
tion of water which is a serious problem.
The rainy season is about over, and usu-
ally, after month or so of dry weather,
water has TO be brought from the mount
aims and sold in the streets.
General Wood is anxious to avoid rep
etition of such conditions, and has engaged
the services of three expert engineers to
report as to the best method OF supplying
the city with water, whether with artesian
wells or otherwise.
Matamorc L colonel in the insurgent
army, and formerly bandit, objecting to
the hum-drlTn ways of peace, recently took
to the hills with twenty men and Is now
carrying on his old vocation, robbing plan
tations and setting in every way bad ex-
ample.
General Wood is determined to suppress
Matamore and a part OF the Sendarmerie is
now ready, uniformed and drilled, We'll
mounted and armed. to do the work. To-
day twenty men, under command of lieu
tenant left for the locality in which Mata-
more and his companions are operating,
with orders TO bring them all in, dead or
alive.
The general opinion here is that if Mat
amore Is not suppressed. he Will soon nave
between 100 and 200 recruits: bnt now Lhat
the purpose of the authorities Is known 1t
is not expected that many will join him.
The Americans here are greatly an,
moved and the SpdTlards deepLE. sii'Neh
! at the failure thus far of the special Span
| ish commission, headed by General Don
| Luis Valdoramma. to recover the remains
| of General Vera del Rey,. the Cubars hav-
| ing apparently lcveled the ground where
| the body was buried. for the express pur-

Minnesota.

ST. PAUL. MINI. Nov. s-Afnnesota
has not only always been considered a
doubtful state, but that is certainly her
position this year. Two years ago McKin-
ley had plurality Of nearly 54coO for
president, and Clough for governor was
elected by 800. Notwithstanding some ad-
verse local conditions as to the state ticket.
This year the state is not only doubtful
but at midnight was being generally placed
in the Democratic column, at least SO far
az the governor is concerned.
Eustis. the Republican candidate ran be-
hind his ticket in most Of those precincts
where the vote on all the candidates was
given, SO that the fact that much fuller
returns will be needed to DECIDE between
the gubernatorial candidates is looked on as
presumptive evidence that the rest of the
Republican ticket is probably elected. The
legislature, which will elect a successor TO
Senator Davis, is concededly Republican.
The Republicans have certainly elected four
congressman, the other three being doubtful
rather than positively Democratic. In
fact. the Democrats have abandoned their
claim that Eeatwoie has been 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.

MIR. BABCOCK SAYS REPUBLICAN
HAVE SAFE MAJORITY.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 9.-Chairman Bah
cock, of the Republican congressional COM
nittee, has made the following statement
to the Associated Press:
while I am satisfied that the Republic
ans will control the house of representa-
tivcs in the Fifty-sixth congress, it is i'm
possible 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 fifteen Re
publicans certainly, and two districts seem
to be in doubt. From Michigan the returns
indicate solid Republican delegation.
Representative Hawley is elected in Texas.
Vincent Boering is reelected in the Elev-
enth Kentucky district, and Samuel ].
Pugh is probably elected in the Ninth Ken
lucky. The election of George NJ. David
son in the Eighth Kentucky is in doubt
with the chances seemingly in favor of his
election. Advices from Maryland show that
we have elected four Republicans GER
tainIy.
Nineteen members of the delegation from
New York state and perhaps more will be
Republicans. Fischer, of the Fourth New
York district. 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 dis
trict is in doubt. From Pennsylvania we
have thus far received meager returns but
the indications are that We have sustained
some Losses there. Unofficial advices from
Western states show that we have more
than held our own and my conviction is
that We shall control the house by safe
! majority
The figures referred to by Mr.. Babcock
were contained in his prediction that the
Republicans would have a majority over
all of about %.
Since early evening, Secretary Kerr of
| the Democratic congressional committee,
| has been working on returns received at
Democratic congressional headquarters. To
the Associated Press Secretary Kerr said
at 1 o'clock:
"The Republicans have lost control of the
house Of representatives. We will have
from 1S6 to 100 members. and will organize
the house Of the Fifty-sixth congress- The
majority of the opposition win be from 15
to 20 over the Republicans and perhaps
more. Our advices indicate Democratic
gains in some of the states. as follows:
Alabama, q; Illinois. 5; Iowa, 1; Kentucky
8: Maryland. 2; Massachusetts, 2; Missouri,
2; New jersey. 2: New York, 6; North Car
olina, 2; Pennsylvania, 6; Virginia, 3; West
! Virginia. 1. This is a total of 81. One dis
| trict in Delaware is doubtful, with the
| chances in favor of the Democrats
| In figuring gain of three in Virginia
Secretary Kerr includes two districts which
elected Democratic congressman in 1896 who
| were unSeated by the present house

CHEYENNE, wYO., Nov. S-The fol-
lowing signed statements of the political
situation were handed the correspondent
of the Associated Press at HIS o'clock to-
night:
Returns are coming in very slowly.
Twenty precincts only have been heard
from, including four In the city of Chey-
enne. They show heavy Republican gains
over 1886 for Mondell for congress, and the
state ticket is running with Mondell, eS-
cepting that Richards, Republican cand.-
date for governor, is running slightly be-
hind his ticket in this, Laramie county,
where there is a slight falling off. 1ndl-
cations are that Mondell is elected by a
large plurality and that the entire state
ticket is elected py smaller pluralities.

THE Democratic party will elect the en-
tire state and congressional tickets, with
