PROBABLE WINNERS In
SENATORIAL ELECTIONS
STATES IN WHICH CONTESTS OCCUR
Wisconsin Preachers Fighting MIR.
BabcOck Because of His stand
Concerning Saloons.

A glance over the fields in the different
States where there are contests for cleo
tions to the American Senate indicates that
the results will show a total of sixteen
Republicans, six Democrats, one Silver Re-
publican, with one election in doubt. In
Connecticut Gen. Joseph B. Hawley Will
probably be reelected, though the friends
of Samuel Fessenden and ex-Goy. Bulke-
ley are making a strong fight for their re-
spectiye favorites. Congressman CharIes
A. Russell is mentioned as dark horse.
]. Edward Addicks seems confident or
carrying off the prize in Delaware, and the
present Senator, Julius C. Burrows, will
undoubtedly be reelected in Michigan
There are five candidates for Senator
Turpie's place, from Indiana. The choice
seems to be between Judge Robert ,.
Taylor and Frank Hanley.
Present indications favor the election in
California of d. NJ. Barnes, who has the
backing of the railroad influences and the
Republican machine. Colonel Barnes is a
millionaire mine owner and horseman, and
has for years practically dictated the poll
cy of the Republican party in this State.
There may be deadlock in Nebraska
The leading candidates for the United
States Senate in Nebraska are John l..
Webster, an Omaha lawyer; ID. E. ThOmp-
son, a Lincoln capitalist. and Judge VI. l..
Hayward late defeated Republican candi-
date for governor
In West Virginia the legislature is very
close, and it is difficult to say whether
Democrat or Republican viii be chosen
The result is q matter of doubt. In North
Dakota there are multitude OF candidates.
the man elected will of course be d Re
publican, as there is a Republican majority
of siXty-three on joint ballot. In Nevada
Francis G. Newlands may defeat William
NJ. Stewart.
In Wisconsin the Senatorial fight seems
TO be between j. V. Quarles and Congress
man j. W. Babcock. The preachers here
have taken hand against BabcOck on ae-
count of his stand regarding saloons in the
District OF Columbia.
