Columbus, Nov. S.-The Republicans
have evidently carried Ohio by plu-
<ality perhaps larger than that given
10 Governor Bushnell in 1897, or, as 1t
now looks, about 10000 or 10000, and
ALSO a majority of the legislature.
There are no Jones legislative candt-
oates, but Samuel M. Jones, mayor of
Toledo, is certainly the closest third
that ever entered the Ohio guberna-
lkOrial race. The indications are that
ne has drawn more heavily from the
Republicans in the cities than from
the Democrats. with the exception of
columbus and smaller cities,
and that the Jones vote will
mot be so large in the rural districts.
There is not the usual percentage of
either Republican or Democratic gains
Dr losses, as the gains run for the
Republicans in some places and for the
Democrats in other sections. Even
after the returns are complete from
Cincinnati, Cleveland and Toledo 1t
may be difficult to reach the result
positively, owing to the tide in the
Jones vote, which runs in streaks and
- causes Republican losses in some
~Blzces and Democratic losses in other
places. Judge Nash claims his cleo
tion as governor, and Republican
Chairman Dick said he was assured
ahe Republicans had carried every
thing, but he had no figure yet to an
nounce A press representative sent
70 Mr.. Mclean, at his residence, ask
ing If he claimed his election, and re-
ceiYed the reply that he had no
Enswer yet to make. Chairman Sc
ward, OF the Democratic committee,
said he was not prepared yet to answer
the question.
Later returns show that the Demo-
cratic gains in Cincinnati and other
cities were reduced. and that Mclean
was likely third at Cleveland and pos
EIbly at Toledo. in which cities Jones
drew much more heavily from The
Democrats than from the Republicans
gains outside of Cincinnati, Cleveland
and Toledo were increasing at such {
rate as to indicate plurality OF 10000
10 90 900 for Judge Nash for COVER
nor and the entire Republican STATE
Hcket, including majority Of the leg
1Elature.
=, This morning the Republicans claim
I'd their plurality would exceed $4,000
with over 100, 900 for Jones out OF |
total of less than 900,000 The Repub
lican majority in the legislature 1
larger than usual. but no senator /
70 be elected.
Judge Nash was serenaded afte
midnight at the Neil House. To a
enthusiastic crowd he made brie
speech, upon being introduced by Hor
Harry M. Daugherty, his rival for tn
nomination. Judge Nash said that tn
Ohio result was a message to Presi
dent Mckinley that his home state Ell
dOrsed his administration and pre-
Raged McF<inley's denomination and II
election in 1900.
The Republicans made their larges
gains at the homes of Judge Nasl
Senator Hanna and Chairman Dicl
The Democrats made their largei
gains at the home of Mr.. Mclean.
Chairman Dick later gave out tt
following: ''The returns from Han
dlton. Cuyahoga and Lucas counts
are as yet too meager to give defini
figures. Enough have been receive
10 indicate the election of Judge Mas
by a greater plurality than that
Governor Bushnell two years ag
which was 2S.165. thus insuring Il
election of the entire Republican sta
