THE VERMONT ELECTION.
Returns Come Slow, but They show
a Decided Decrease in the
Republican Vote.

White River Junction, VT, Sept. o.
Election returns, in addition to those
received Tuesday night, were very
slow in arriving, and such figures as
came to hand were from very small
places, and had little bearing on the
general result. The total vote of the
places heard from up to 10 a. IN. and
not previously reported, did not ex'
coed 1900. The relative decrease in
the republican vote and increase in
the democratic figures seemed to be
maintained in the towns thus report
ed in about the same ratio as Tuesday
nights figures showed.
Five additional towns reported Gil
give majorities for Stickney, the re-
publican candidate for governor
Sheffield elected H. c. Simpson, re-
publican, for representative. He IA
vors Grout for Senator. Morristowni
with a total vote of about 600
showed gain Of 81 per cent for the
democrats. Morristown elected 5. q
Fleetwood, republican, as representa-
tive. Mr.. Fleetwood favors Dilling'
ham for Senator.
Nottingham and Worcester, while
giving pluralities for Stickney fol
governor elected democratic nominees
for representative. Nottingham elect
ed i. H. Sawyer, and Worcester chose
S. T. Tewksbury as representatives
Nottingham elected "a democrat in
1898.
Sheffield, which two years ago elect
ed prohibtionists as representative
now sends republican. These re-
turns show that the democrats have
gained the representative from Wor'
cester, while the republicans get their
candidate from Sheffield, in place of a
prohibitionist.
The republican campaign officials
have not given any new estimates OF
the republican plurality, and they
hold to their last night claim of ~
900 plurality. The democrats claim
81 seats in the house of representa-
tives.

sea during the last few days crossed Gu
ba, Tuesday night, and Is central this
morning near Key West, Fla. Thus far
the storm has been attended only by
heavy rains and winds of moderate force.
The outlook, however, Is that the CEN

of Mexico with a marked increase of in
tensty and cause dangerous winds along
the middle and east gulf, Florida and ex-
IRENE South Atlantic coast tonight and

night and is likely to extend over the
middle Atlantic and south New England
coasts by Friday. Aside from indicated
high easterly winds along the Atlantic
coast this disturbance promises to cause
general rains over the eastern part OF the

Patiently Awaiting Further
Developments.
UNOFFICIAL EXCHANGES IN PROGRESS
rho Chinese Government, Acting
Trough LII Hung Chang, Makins
strenuous Efforts to Secure Fa
yornbIe Consideration for Its Re
cent Peace Overtures.

Washington, Sept, Our govern
uent has not yet been Informed thai
any further responses have been made
by the powers to the Russian note
respecting the withdrawal of troop
from Pekin. Therefore, the negotia
tons on this point can not be said tc
have been marked by any formal ad'
yancement, though it is known that
unofficial exchanges are in progress
which doubtless are preparing the
way for formal agreement between
the powers in the near future.
Chinese Efforts for Peace.
Acting through Ii Hung Chang, thu
Chinese imperial government is max
ing strenuous efforts to secure IA
yorable consideration for its peace
oyertures. While our government hal
not vet received copy of the i'm
perial edict referred to in the Shang'
hal dispatches, naming Earl Ii and
several other Chinese notable as pie.

Element with the powers,the state de.
partment is advised, through its
agents, of the existence of such an
edict. This, it is expected, will be
communicated to the department
when Mr.. WI, the Chinese minister
returns to Washington.
Neither Has Special Powers.

have been clothed with any special
movers to meet these or any other
Chinese ENJOYS. II is again stated
that Mr.. Rockhill is in China simply

he has no ministerial powers up to
the present. Gen. Chailee's functions
are purely military, so it is said and
while, of course,he would be fully EN-
powered to grant truce, he in not
empowered to conduct negotiations
for final settlement between the
United States and China.
Minister Congcr's Authority.
Minister Conger has only his ger
eral powers as n minister resident
Broadly construed, these would serve
TO warrant him in receiving and
transmitting any propositions from
the Chinese authorities, but he could
scarcely go further than this. The
conclusion IL that no United States
official In China, civil or military, can
at present conduct negotiations for a
final settlement with the Chinese gov
eminent, and special powers must BIZ
conveyed by the state department,
probably to one of the three persons
named when II comes to the final
reckoning.
No Disposition TO Complain.
There is no disposition here to com
plain OF dilatoriness on the part OF
the powers In dsposing of the Rus
sian suggestion respecting withdraw
al. II is felt that any delay which
eusues in the execution OF the Rus
sian threat TO withdraw actually
makes for peace, for each days de.
velopments point to the restoration to
authority in pckin OF some ghost of

tangible enough TO deal with the pow
ers
There Is no word to-day from Mr.
