MIR. BRYAN ON THE RESULTS.


LINCOLN, Neb., November 11.-W.
]. Bryan this evening gave to the press
an extended statement, summing up
the results of the elections.
In Massachusetts and Pennsylvania,
where the Democrats reaffirmed the
Chicago platform, he finds that they
have made gains, while in New York
and New Jersey the Republican vote
shows a falling off. Maryland, he de-
clares, is now safely Democratic. The
result in Kentucky does not give any
encouragement to the Republicans.
With Democracy united on national is
sues, Kentucky can be relied upon for
a majority of 10000.
What consolation can Republicans.
draw from the Ohio election? Mr..
Hanna secured the nomination of his
candidate for Governor upon plat
form endorsing the Republican admin
istration. And while the returns indi-
cate that Nash has plurality of about
$4,000 over Mclean, Mclean and
Jones together having majority of
something $4,000 over the Republican
candidate.
Iowa, South Dakota and Kansas re-
suits are passed over with brief para
graphs as not of leading Importance.
The Nebraska campaign was fought
on national issues and the fusion can
didate for judge received $4,000 this
year as agai' st 5000 last year for the
fusion candidate for Governor and 49,
600 for the fusion electors in 1896 and
the fusion candidate for judge in 1891.
Mr.. Bryan continues:
Taken as a whole the election re-
turns from all the States give encour-
agement to those who hope for the
overthrow of the Republican party in
1900 1t is evident that those who be-
lieved in the Chicago platform in 1895

Pretoria, Oct 5.-F. W. Beitz, the
Transvaal secretary of state. in an
interview given by him to a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press,
said: The TransvaaI government is
awaiting the next imperial dispatch,
which ought to contain the final pro-
Dcsals Of Great Britain. The British
agent, Conyngham Greene, informed
me that the dispatch is in course of
preparation, but some days will elapse
before it will be ready. In the mean
time the Transvaal forces are mo-
bilizing and going to the front The
government, however has issued
strict instructions to the commandants
and all other military officers on no
