nal, with returns from 100 out Of

ans majority at 5000 and Beckham's

Leslie Combs, chairman Of the Re

Senator vyolcott Defeated.

Denver, Nov. S.-Returns from Tues
days election are slow coming in, but
sufficient returns and careful estimates
have been received to show that Bry-
ans plurality will be from 10000 to
$4,000 and may reach 10000. The Re
publican managers concede the legis-
lature to the fusionists by majority
of Sc on joint, ballot. Orman Den
and the whole fusion ticket will have
about 25,000 plurality. The defeat Of
Senator Wolcott for the senate is gen.
orally conceded, but with several as
pirants in the fusion party it is impos.
sible to predict with any accuracy who
his successor will be.

Minnesota Governorship In Doubt.

st. Paul, Nov. S.-The only point un-
settled in the Minnesota election is the
contest over the governorship. Every
thing else has gone Republican by ma
jorities so large that there is no possi-
bility of change. Tams Bixby. chair
man of the Republican state commit
tee. figures out S,754 plurality for Van
SAINT, while Chairman Rosing of the
Democratic state committee, from the
figures reported to him, foots up 49,
900 plurality for Lind. The present
returns have favored Van SAINT but
his lead is slight The Mckinley vote
seems considerably more than 10000
over that of Bryan. However, there
are various unexpected things to the
returns and the governorship will have
to be called doubtful until much more
complete returns have been received.
