"Nhon II comes 10 collecting election
returns The SrN beats all creation" was the
comment made by a leading newspaper Of
this city four years ago.
THE sun presents its compliments to lis
readers thi, morning and begs TO say that
there are few changes TO be made in the
figures given in this paper in its first and
subsequent editions of twentv-four hours
ago. That first edition contained an ac-
curate presentation of every feature Of the
election.
The Electoral vote remains 2g2 for
Mckinley and l55 for Bryan. In three
States the voting has been close. namely,
Kentucky. Nebraska and Idaho. but re-
vi-ed figures from those States indicate
that they will remain As already
placed in THE suns table OF Elec-
toral votes. Kentucky seemingly has
voted for Bryan by a plurality ranging
from sU0 to 10000 votes Nebraska is Re-
publican by about IOUO. In Idaho the
Democratic plurality is very small; it prob
ably will be counted In the Democratic
column.
The Pacific coast states have done much
better for the Republicans than had been
expected California's plurality may swell
TO 4O. 900; the Republicans elect the entire
Congress delegation. Washington and Orc
gon show largo Republican p!uralitirs.
In Colorado the BRYAN plurality has been
cut down 90 .ooo. The Fusionists control the
Legislature.
Tho House Of Representatives Is largely
Republican: several districts are still in
doubt, but the latest returns show 2O7 Re-
publicans, and l5O Democrats. Populi,ts
and Silveritas. The Indications are that
in the Senate there will be- 55 Republicans
and IS opposition.
In New York state Mr.. Mckinley has a
plurality of 1892: Odcll plurality of 49,
s22. The Legislature will stand: Senate-Re-
publicans. 80; Democrats, IL. Assembly
-Republicans. 100; Democrats, -.
Bryan's plurality in Greater New York is
q ,45. and in New York county, 27 432
Stanchfield has 40.7i2 in the city and s47i5
in the county. Mckinley carries Kings

GermanY's Ship Canal.

The new canal connecting the Baltic
with the Atlantic had a better year in
the II months ended March 81, 1899,
than in the previous II months. The
number of vessels last year was 25,~
SIG, with a tonnage of 3,117,840 tons,
g gain of 2,708 ships and 648,045 tons
over the previous year. The dues aG-
gregated $378,000, or 25 per cent.
more than the year before. The total
receipts were $3S8,0OO against $491,-
800 of expenses. AS a strategic work
the canal is useful even if it does not
pay, but the recent increase of earn
ings promises profits after time.
German ships supplied 6821 per cent.
of the tonnage using the canal, Brit
ish vessels having 9.71 per cent, Dan
ish vessels 6.88 per cent, Swedish yes

BEVERAGES AND DIGESTION.
Results of Some Interesting Observa-
tons and Experiments.

Dr. James w. Fraser has recorded
the result of an interesting series of ex-
beverages on stomachic and intestinal
beverages ON stamachic and intestinaS
digestion. The results obtained from
| an exhaustive series of experiments
and analyses show:
81. That it is better not to eat most
albuminoid foodstuffs at the same time
as infused beverages are taken, for il
has been shown that their digestion
will, in most cases, be retarded, though
there are possible exceptions. Alb
sorption may be rendered more rapid,
but there is loss of nutritive sub
stance. On the other hand, digestion
of starchy food appears to be assisted
by tea and coffee, and gluten. the al
buminoid of -four, has been seen to be
the principle least retarded in digestiOGk
by tea. From this it appears that
bread is the natural accompaniment OF
tea when used as beverage at meal.
2. That eggs are the best form OK
animal food to be taken along with ia
fused beverages, and apparently they
are best lightly boiled if tea, and hare.
boiled if coffee or cocoa is the beyer-
age. g. That the case:n Of the milR
and cream taken with the beverage,
is probably absorbed in large degree
from the stomach. That the butter
used with bread undergoes digestion
more slowly in the presence of tea but
more quickly in the presence of coffee
or cocoa; that is, if the fats of butter
are influenced in a similar way to
