ponents Continues.
Philadelphia. Nov. 9-Complete but
unofficial figures on the vote for presi-
dent have been received from every
county except Armstrong and Brad
ford, though in quite number OF
counties the vote for Woolley (Pro.)
was not taken from the return sheets
and the official computation OF the
votes must therefore be completed be-
fore an approximate estimate OF the
vote for Woolley shall be obtained.
With Armstrong and Bradford coun-
ties missing the total vote in the state
for Mckinley is 690,924, and that for
Bryan 4O7 657. The vote of these two
counties will add about 10000 to Nc
Kinley and $500 to Bryan. This
would make McKinley's plurality in
Pennsylvania 290,267. OF this plu
rality Philadelphia furnishes over 1885,
00G and Allegheny county, incluuing
Pittsburg, nearly $4,000. Bryan car
ried Is of the 67 counties in the state.
In this city the fusion Of the Demo
Gratis Win Ine L1dSuS Sul
down the Republican county majority,
but j. Hampton Moore, for city treas
urer, and Jacob Singer, for register OF
wills, are elected by about 10000 plu-
rality.
The result of former Senator Quay's
effort to secure control OF a sufficient
number of members of the incoming
legislature to insure his return to the
United States senate is as yet in doubt.
Ex-senator Quay himself declares his
election q certainty. He says his fol-
lowers will organize the legislature,
ard that he will be elected on the first
ballot. His opponents, however, posi-
lively assert the contrary. Senator
Finn declares that Quay will have
fewer votes in the next legislature
than he had during the famous dead
lock
FCcht Republican, for state senator,
carried probably every county in the
REIMBURSEMENT senatorial district,
composed of Union, Snyder and Nor
cumberland counties, and his ma
jority exceeds 1000. John H. FOw, can
didate for reelection as representative
from d Philadelphia district, was de-
feated by a plurality of only IA by
Frederick Hess, his Republican OPP
pOnent.
In Montgomery and Chester counties
where the fusioniSts made a strong
fight to elect nine anti-Quay members
Of the legislature, they suffered a Sc
we're setback, the regular Republicans
winning by large majority.
Indications are that the next Penn
sylvania delegation in congress will
stand: Republican, 26; Democrats, A.
