ENEMIES CONCEDE
That William j. Bryan Made
the Fusion Victory
Possible.

[News-Democrat Leased Wire Service ]
Omaha, Neb., Nov. S.-While the re-
suit of the election in Nebraska has
not been q landslide, the Fusionists have
carried the state by from $4,000 to $4,000,
and in the Sixth district have elected
George William Neville to congress, to
fill the unexpired term Of William
Green. The full returns will not be in
before tonight, but everything shows
gains for the Fusionists. 1t is conceded
in a large measure to be a personal
victory for Bryan, though the Fusion
lists assert in addition that 1t is a test
of the unpopularity of Imperialism in
the west. Assistant Secretary of War
Meiklejohn discussing the result says
"The Fusionists have carried the state,
but the principles of expansion are still
popular in Nebraska, for the contest
was one largely on personal grounds,
and Mr.. Bryan made the fight of his
life. The days Of fusion are about end
ed in the state, because the Populists
have shown during the entire campaign
great restlessness, and a disposition to
draw away from the Democrats"
In Omaha the Republicans have di-
vided the county officers with the Fu-
sionists.

Boston, Nov. S.-Unofhcial returns

16S,S49; Paine, Democrat, 1872.
Cranes plurality, 65,O37. Wolcott's
plurality in 1898 was S2,295. The Demo-
Gratis will have a net increase in both

went Democratic by 5000. The state
election afforded many surprises. The
Democrat vote was only 5000 less than
in 1888, while the Republican vote was
$4,000 less. This is accounted for by
the alleged dissatisfaction in the Re-
publican ranks over Imperialism. The
issue was fairly drawn.
