New York, Nov 1T became evil
dent at very early hour last evening
that the election of Mckinley and
Roosevelt was assured. At $50 p. III.
returns from nearly twO-thirds of the
election districts of Greater New York
had been received, indicating beyond
question that Bryan and Stevenson
could not expect more than 25.0OO or
10000 plura:ty in this Democratic
stronghold and unless there was n
landslide in the outside counties be-
yOnd all reasonable expectations the
pivotal state of New York had de-
clared in unmistakeable terms, al
though by reduced majority, for the
Republican candidates. Returns from
Illinois betrayed like condition. The
Republican gains over 1896 seemed to
indicate that Delaware Maryland and
West Virginia had given decisive Re-
publican pluralities. The count In sew
eral Of the far western state was nat
urally so delayed as to give little in
dication of the outcome there, but they
had ceased to have determining eff
feet and before II o'clock the Demo
cratic leaders had given up the con-
test, and it was announced that Mr.
Bryan had gone to bed and was sound
asleep.
The whole story was easily and briefly
told The Republican ticket would have
larger electoral vote than four years
ago, but in the larger state Of the east
and middle west the pluralities had
been greatly reduced.
Massachusetts had fallen from 174.-
600 to 10000: New York from 2GS 900
to 10000, and Illinois from 142 900
to 100000 or less.

Chicago, Nov. 7.-Complete returns
from Is counties in the state and par
tial returns from the others, includ-
ing the full vote of Chicago, indicate
plurality for Mckinley that will prob
ably exceed 10000. Chairman Watson
Of the Democratic state central com
mittee comedies the state to Mckinley
election of the full Republican state
ticket by majorities considerably un-
der the presidential figures, the scratch
ing of the state ticket being confined al
most entirely to Cook county, where
Mr.. Alschulers personal popularity
told heavily for the Democratic nom
inees, so muchin fact that it is probable
that that county was carried for the
Democratic state ticket. Returns so
far indicate that the Republicans have
lost two and possibly three congress
men in Chicago, the most sensational
defeat being that of William Lorimer.
Outside of Cook county the congress
sional delegation is in doubt. The
Democrats claim gains in one or two
districts, but Republican leaders as
sert that the delegation will remain
unchanged.
1t is practically certain that the next
legislature, which will elect United
States senator to succeed Shelby NJ.

ballot at least and by sufficient ma
jority to elect a senator.
