THE WONDERFUL RESULT
An Unmistakable Declaration Which
 Puts MT. Bryan to Sleep.

New York, Nov. G. (Midnight)-It last evening that the election of McKin- ley and Roosevelt was assured. At half past eight o'clock returns from nearly twoIthirds of the election districts of Greater New York had been received, indicating beyond any question that Bryan and Stevenson could not expect more than 25,OO0 or 3OGO0 plurality in 'This democratic stronghold and unless there was landslide in the outside counties beyond all reasonable expecta- ton the pivotal state of N York had declared in unnistakable terms. al though by greatly reduced majority, for the republican candidates.
 As the night progressed 1t only served to confirm this judgment and the re- turns from Illinois reveaIod a like con- dition. The republican pluqatlly of 1896 was greatly reduced, but it was still far too large to he overcome. On the other hand, the returns from Indiana, Michigan. the two Dakotas, Utah and Wyoming, as well as Nebraska, seemed to indicate strong republican gains over 1896. Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia had given decided re- publican pluralities.
 The count in several of the western states was naturally so delayed as to give little indication of opinion there, but they had ceased to have a deter mining effect and before 10 o'clock the democratic leaders had given up the contest and it was announced that MT Bryan had gone to bed and was sound asleep. The whole story was easily and briefly told. The republican tickcs would have a larger electoral vote than four years ago, but in the larger states of the east and middle west the plural tiles of 1896 had been greatly reduced Massa chusetts had fallen. from IT ,0U0 to S0,00O; New York from 268, 900 t5 135- 900. and Illinois from 142,OO0 to 100000 or less.
