the chances in favor of the fusion candi-
date. The election of the fusion candidate
in this district would leave the delegation in
congress as at present, seven republicans
and one fusionist.
Colorado.
Denver, Col, Nov. S.-Returns from the
election are slowly coming in, but suffi-
cient returns and careful estimates have
been received to show that Bryan's plu-
rality will be from 10000 to s.. 1000, and may
reach 10000. The. republican managers
concede the legislature to the fusionists
by a majority of Sc on joint ballot. Or
man (dem.) and the whole fusion ticket
will have about Is, 900 plurality. In Ara
pahoe county Bryan's plurality will be
about $500; though this will considerably
exceed the plurality given the state and
county tickets. The defeat of Senator
Wolcott for the senate is generally con-
coded, but with several aspirants in the
fusion parties, it Is impossible to predict
with n accurancy who his successor
will be.
California.
San Francisco, Nov. s.-The majority for
Mckinley in California continues to grow.
and the indications are that it will reach
40, 900. Complete returns from 1874 precincts
out of 2,19O outside Of San Francisco give
Mckinley 1o7, ss2; Bryan, 1,24s. The same
precincts In 1886 gave Mckinley sc, 1857; Bry-
an, 1901. Owing to the failure of a few
election officers to make a semioficial re-
| port, the complete figures in San Francisco
cannot be ascertained at present, but it is
safe to say that the republican presidential
electors have carried the city by 5000 or TO-
600. The republicans have elected all seven
| congressman. The legislature is repub-
lican by a majority of 26. The state senate
contains 80 republicans and seven demo-
Gratis. The assembly stands: Republicans,
So; democrats, %.
Boise, Idaho, Nov. S.-Returns from
Nez Perces and Latah counties show those
counties have not held up to the former
republican majorities. This makes a radi-
cal change, and it Is probable the state has
gone for Bryan and the democratic state
ticket. though Morrison (rep.). for congress,
may pull through. The republican stat
committee claims 40 members of the legis-
lature, a majority of ten on joint ballot,
but there is much uncertainty yet on this
point.
Montana.
Helena, Mont, Nov. S.-Fuller returns
Of Tuesdays voting in this state confirms
the preliminary estimates sent out Tues
day night. Bryan's plurality will be from
$4,000 to is. 1000, and Gov. Toole leads the
democratic state ticket with from 5000
to 5000 votes to spare. The legislature,
which will elect two United States sena-
tors, is democratic from Is to 20 votes on
joint ballot. and will undoubtedly reflect
