licans have gained SO materially that
it leaves the complexion of the next
legislature in doubt despite the hold
over Senators. The estimated plural

will be overcome by the strong Repub-
can counties. many of which are in

OHIO.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, November AT
1890 the Republicans claimed that
their plurality would exceed $4,000,
with over 100000 for Jones out of a
total of less than 100000. The Repub-
lican majority in the legislature is
larger than usual, but no Senator is to
be elected. Judge Nash was serenaded
after midnight at the Neil House. To
an enthusiastic crowd he made brief
speech upon being introduced by Hon
Harry NJ. Daugherty, his rival for the
nomination. Judge Nash said that the
Ohio result was a message to President
Mckinley that his home State endorsed
his administrator and presaged McKin-
ley's denomination and reelection in
1900. The Republicans made their
largest gains at the homes of Judge
Nash, Senator Hanna and Chairman
Dick. The Democrats made their
largest gains at the home Of Mr.. Me-
Lean.
COLUMBUS, o., November 7.-After
II p. m.-The returns showed that the
Democratic gains in Cincinnati and 9th
er cities were reduced and that Mclean
was likely third at Cleveland and pos
sibly at Toledo in which cities Jones
drew much more heavily from the Dem.
ocrats than the Republicans At the
same time the Republican net gains
outside of Cincinnati, Cleveland and
Toledo, were increasing at such rate
as to indicate plurality of from 10000
to 10000 for Judge Nash for Governor
and the entire Republican State ticket
including majority of the legislature.
Chairman Dick had previous to the
election repeatedly claimed the election
of the entire State Republican ticket
by not less than $4,000 plurality.
So far tonight he has refused to
give out any figures but those around
him say that means that he has no rea-
son to change his first figures. The
later returns seem to be growing in ia
vor of the Republicans, especially since
the returns indicate that Jones hurt
the Democrats much more than the
! Republicans in Cleveland, Toledo and
Columbus and other cities while the
first reports indicated exactly the OPP
posite. Judge Nash, Republican can
didate. was receiving the congratuia-
tons of his many friends and neighbors
at the Neil House after IL p. m He
said:
I claim my election now by at least
, 10000 but / am TOO much engaged TO
give a statement of the causes or to
analyze the results for the press
The bands are out serenading him.
At 11:20 Chairman Charles Dick gave
out the following:
THE returns from Hamilton, Cuya-
hoga and Lucas counties are as yet too
| meagre to give definite figures. En-
ough have been received to indicate
| the election of Judge Nash by a great
| er plurality than that Of Governor Bush

MARYLAND.

BALTIMORE, Md, November I'm
complete returns from the city of Bal
timore and meagre reports from the
State received up to IL o'clock tonight
indicate that the Republicans of Mary
land have been overwhelmingly de-
feated and that John Walter Smith, the
Democratic candidate, has been elected
by majority variously estimated at
from 10000 to 10000 There is also a
reasonable certainty that the lower
house of the general assembly will be
Democratic by a large majority and
that the Democrats will elect enough
State Senator's to overcome the Repub-
lican advantage among the hold-over
Senators, thereby controlling both
branches of the legislature. The DEM
ocrats are wild with enthusiasm while
the Republicans are correspondlngly
depressed over the result which they
are inclined to attribute to treachery
among the followers of Mayor Master
and United States Senator George l..
Wellington. The latter has taken no
part in the campaign, and has not hes
itated, since his resignation as chair
man Of the State Central Committee
few weeks ago, to predict the over
whelming defeat Of the Republican
ticket. The "Gold Democrats" as an
organization supported Governor
Lowndes, but they seem to have had
but little if any effect on the result.
Lloyd Wilkinson, secretary of the
Democratic State Central Committee,
tonight made the following statement
regarding the result:
"Mr. Smiths majority in the State
will be from $4,000 to $4,000, with ma
ture."

LINCOLN, b.. November 7.-There
is no longer an doubt as to the result
in Nebraska. The returns continue to
show steady Fusion gains and the ma
jority for Holcomb will not be less than
10000.
w J. Bryan gave out this statement
at 1 o'clock Wednesday morning:
'The campaign in Nebraska was
fought on national issues, and the result
is protest against the policy of the
administration.
Mr.. Bryan said he had no comment
to make on results in other States.
At l o'clock Chairman Tefft, of the
Republican committee, admitted that
the figures at hand showed the election
of the Fusion ticket.
LINCOLN, Neb., November Mid
night-Returns up to midnight con-
tinue to show the same Fusion gain
as earlier reports and there is no long
er the least doubt of the Fusion tick
cts election.
LINCOLN, Neb., November To As
p. MT is evident to both parties in
to-day's fight that Nebraska has re-
pledged her allegiance to the Fusion
standard. While Republicans are not
yet willing to admit defeat, early fig
lures point that way. There has been a
steady falling off of the vote of both
parties, but, while the Fusionists have
suffered very little, the Republican loss
has been not less than three to pre-
cinct. If the present ratio is main
tanned, Ex-Governor Halcomb and the
Fusion State ticket will he elected nv
not less than 10000. Fusionists claim
much more.
NEW YORK, November AT 10:3 80
p. m. dispatch was received at the
Democratic State headquarters announ-
cling that Mr.. Bryan claimed Nebraska
for the Fusion ticket by $4,000. Chair
man Danforth at once sent the follow
ing dispatch to Mr.. Bryan:

tons upon your well deserved triumph"

THE BALTIMORE SUN.
BALTIMORE, Md, November s.
Returns from both the city and the
State have been very slow In coming
to hand and at O'Clock this (Wednes-
day. morning the full vote from only
Is wards Of Baltimore City have been
received while in the State not single
county is complete. The thirteen COM
piete wards in the city, with the bal
ance estimated show a plurality for
Smith, (Dem.), for Governor of 7,541,
while in the balance of the State his
plurality will probably be between $500
ana 5000.
The Democrats have carried the three
legislative districts in Baltimore city
and the probabilities are that they will
have rs members in the lower house
of the general assembly, while the Re-
publicans appear to have elected but IS.
The Senate will be very close with the
chances slightly favoring the Democrat
ic claim of majority of two On the
face of the returns the Republicans
have carried but five counties. in the
State. The Democrats have carried be-
yond a doubt the remaining thirteen.
BALTIMORE, November THE re-
turns from the State are very meagre,
but those thus far received show sub
stantial Democratic gains and indicate
that Smith, Dem, for Governor, will
have at least 5000 majority outside of
Baltimore; that the lower house of the
General Assembly is surely Democratic
by a good majority, and that the Demo-
Gratis will probably control the State
Senate. The Sun estimates Smiths
majority in the city at $4,000 and in
the State at $4,000.
