NEBRASKA.

Omaha, Neb., Nov. 7.-Fifty-five pre-
cincts outside Of Omaha and Douglass
counties give Mckinley 1850, Bryan
5,897 The same precincts In 1896 gave
Mckinley 1923, Bryan 5,S97. This is
a net Republican gain of SIS for Nc
Kinley. which, II it holds GOOD
throughout the state, will give McKln-
ley a plurality of from 5000 to 1000.
The state ticket is running about the
same as the national candidates.
Twenty-one precincts in the city OF
Omaha give Mckinley 1904, Bryan
1888.
Returns indicate a plurality OF from
1000 to 1000 in the state for McKin-
ley, although the fusionists say only
the Republican precincts are heard
from. Little is heard from congress
sional districts, except from the Sec
ond, where Mercer (Rep.) is probably
elected. The city Of Omaha is show
ing some gains for Bryan. The legis-
lature will in all probability be Re-
publican. Several state districts that
usually run close have given Repub-
lican plurality on the national ticket.
In the usual course of events these
counties cut quite a figure in the COM
plexion of the legislature, which this
year elects two United States senators.
Lincoln.-Lincoln complete: McKin-
ley a majority of 1902, a gain of 655
over 1896.

NEW YORK.

New York, Nov. 7.-lndications are
that President Mckinley has carried
New York state by majority over
Bryan of about 100000, compared with
a Republican majority in the last pres
idential election of $685. 69. The total
vote in city of New York is approx
mately 10000 larger than it was in 1896
and up the state the increase is about
100000 In the city Bryan wiped out
the plurality of 10000 which Mckinley
had four years ago and took on plur-
ality for himself of about 10000. Up
the state Mckinley barely held the
vote he had in 1896, the added vote
going to Bryan. The vote for B. B.
Odell, Jr., Republican nominee for gov
ernor, is considerably larger than that
for Mckinley. In Brooklyn particu-
larly the Democratic nominee for gov
ernor, Mr.. Stanchfeld, appears to have
been scratched.
Returns from all but 522 districts
out of 3,124 in New York state outside
of Greater New York give Mckinley a
majority of 145297. Returns from all
but 1923 out OF the total of 1922 dis
tricts in Greater New York give Bryan
a majority of 1881.

NEW HAMPSHIRE.

Concord, ". H., Nov. Z. - An I'M
usually heavy vote was polled through
out New Hampshire. The Republican
elee.xral ticket will undoubtedly carry
the state by at least 10000. Both Re-
publican candidates for congress will
be elected by about $500 each. The
legislature will be overwhelmingly
Republican in both branches and the
governors council will be solidly Re-
publican.

MAINE.

Portland, Me-, Nov. IA compare
lively light vote was polled in Maine.
Returns have been received from about
210 cities, towns and plantations in
the state, showing a Republican plur-
ality of 1S.4S1, as against 3l,9SS for
the same towns in 1896. The returns
indicated a Republican loss of II per
cent and Democratic gain of 81 per
cent as compared with 1895. Figuring
on this basis the Republican plurality
In the state would be about 27,300.

Wilmington, Del, Nov. 7.-Returns

suit the Republicans made a better
showing than was expected by the
Democratic leaders. Returns indicate
that the Bryan electors have received

MARYLAND.

Baltimore, Nov. Z. - President Nc
Kinley carried Baltimore city by ma =
jorlty of $685.. The returns from the
counties are meager, but official advices
from 81 scattered precincts out of S54
give him 1925 as against 16,197 for
Bryan, thus assuring him a majority
of at least 10000 in the state. The
defeat of the Democrats has been thor
ough and surprising, it being certain
that they have lost five out of the six
congressman, with the probabilities in
favor of a clean sweep by the loss Of
the other.

ILLINOIS.

Chicago, Nov. 7.-Complete returns
from Is counties in state and partial
returns from the Others, in studying
the full vote of Chicago in Cook coun-
ty, indicate a plurality for William
Mckinley that will probably exceed
100000 Chairman Watson, of the Dem
ocratic state central committee, con-
cedes the state to Mckinley by $4,000.
Returns also indicate tn, election Of
the full Republican state ticket by
majorities considerably under the
presidential figures, the scratching on
the state ticket being confined almost
entirely to Cook county, where Mr.. AL
schuler's personal popularity told
heavily in favor of the Mckinley nom
inees, so much so, in fact, that 1t is
probable that the county was carried
for the Democratic state ticket. Re-
turns so far also indicate that the Re-
publicans have lost two and possibly
three congressman in Chicago. the
most sensational defeat being that OF

prominent members of the Cook coun-
ty Republican organization, In the Sec

Wichita, Kan, Nov. Three pre-
cincts in Wichita out of Is give Nc
Kinley a majority of 1926. AT this ratio
the city will give Mckinley 1000 ma
jority. Bryan in 1896 carried it by 40.
Kansas City, Kan, Nov. IL. Mack
Love, chairman of the Kansas Demo-
cratic state committee, made the fol-
lowing statement: 81 fear that Kansas
has gone Republican and that McKin-
ley and Stanley, governor, will carry
the state by small majorities."

CALIFORNIA.

San Francisco, Nov. 7.-While the
returns from the state at large and
this city are very incomplete. enough
are at hand to warrant the prediction
that Mckinley has carried California
by a plurality of 10000. McKinley's
plurality in this city will probably
reach 1000. The Republicans have
elected congressman from the Third,
Fourth, Sixth and Seventh districts.
The Second and Fifth districts are
running very close. No returns have
been received from the First district,
but that has generally been conceded
to the Republicans. The Legislature
will be Republican.

vote of six should be placed in the Nc
Kinley column. The entire Republic
an state ticket was elected. The four
Republican congressman were re-elect-
ed and a general assembly overwhelm-
ingly Republican was chosen. The
plurality for Mckinley is fixed at about
32. 900.

MASSACHUSETTS.

Boston, Nov. 7.-President Mckinley
has carried Massachusetts, by about
$4,000 plurality, reduction of nearly
1O0,0 900 from four years ago. The Re-
publicans have elected 10 and possibly
IL congressman, few by an increased
plurality over 1896, but in the major
ity of districts here candidates ran
behind those of four years ago, while
the total vote for governor was some
what behind that given the national
candidate. w. w. Crane was re-elect-
ed by a somewhat larger plurality
than that received by President Nc
Kinley. Reduction in the Republican
plurality was due not so much to the
falling OF in the party vote, but to the
return of the so-called gold Democrats
of 1896 to the regular Democratic
ranks.

MICHIGAN.

Detroit, Nov. There has been a
veritable landslide for Republicans in
Michigan and President Mckinley has
carried the state by a majority vari-
ously estimated from $4,000 to 100000.
The entire Republican state ticket has
also been elected, although by small
er majority. Mayor Maybury of De-
troit, the Democratic candidate for
governor, has run far ahead of his
ticket. The state legislature, which
elects a successor to Senator James
Mcmillan, will be overwhelmingly Re-
publican, and Senator McMillan's re-
election is a certainty. II seems al
most certain that the Republicans
have elected all their congressional
nominees.

THE PORTO RICAN BILL.
Senate 1t fs Thought Will Pass the
Foraker Measure.

The Porto Rican tariff bill, passed by the
House yesterday, was sent to the Senate
this morning and was referred to the Porto
Rico committee. The matter is likely to be
DEBATED In the Senate for month or more
before action upon ii is taken. Mr. For
aker, chairman of the committee, later re-
ported back to the Senate the bill The
committee struck out the preamble and all
after the enacting clause and substituted
the Senate Porto Rican bill, already report
ed with amendments. One of these amend
ments is a reduction of the tariff on Porto
Rlcan products TO fifteen per cent of the
Dingley tariff, in order to make the meas
ure agree with the House bill
1t is expected that the Senate will eventu-
ally adopt this recommendation and that
the matter will go into conference in the
form of the Foraker bill.
Mr.. Allen inquired if the committee had
met ana authorized the report made by Mr.
Foraker. The latter replied that the COM
mittee had had the whole matter under
consideration for weeks, and as he had
been authorized by majority of the COM
m1ttee to make the report. he knew of no
reason why he should not make it. not
wfthstanding the fact that the bill had
been sent over from the House only two
hours before.
The time of the Senate from now until
Wednesday is so taken up with other mat
ters that it is not expected that there will
be much talk on the Quay case until after
Wednesday. The Porto Rican bill is ex-
pected to be taken up as soon after the
vote on the financial conference report is
had, and ii is uncertain how much head
way the consideration of the QUAY case
can make in competition as to time with
this important matter. The leaders of
the opposition TO Quay expressed the con-
V1ction this morning that Quay could not
be seated. in spite of the claims made by
Mr.. Penrose and the vote of the Senate
the other day on the question of considera-
ton.

DEMOCRATS DISTURBED,
Mr.. Richardson Receives Letters
From Bryan and Cleveland.

The democrats in the House were dis

milton of something strange and uncanny
AS rule, perhaps, members of the House
are not superstitious, but the croaking of
raven over the chamber door or the beat
ing of the wings of white dove against
the black clouds of discord are things cal
culated to excite the imagination.
thing as startling and strange as this
happened this morning to Representative
Richardson of Tennessee, who IS chairman
of the democratic congressional committee
When his mail was delivered to him the
first letter on top Of the pack was from
w. j. Bryan, and the next, Immediately
under it, was from Grover Cleveland When
this strange circumstance was disclosed to
democrats on the floor, there were many
and varied expressions. Some thought they
saw in it signs of harmony; others found in
1t signs of impending evil. The voice Of
Cleveland seems always ominous to demo-
Gratis, and the coming of the two letters
together was discussed as harbinger or
something or other-sure!

some reference was made to the suject
of the Island of Cagayen and Sibutu claim
ed by Spain, but it Is believed that the
matter has not advanced beyond the ac-
acknowledgement by the State Department of
the Spanish representations on the sub
]ect and a promise of consideration
Baron Sternberg, the German charge,
also called at the departments to arrange
the treaty which has just secured the ap-
provai of the Senate, providing for the ar
duration Of claims preferred by individuals
on account of property losses sustained
during the last Samoan uprising.
Inc tlme allowed by the treaty Itself for
the hhal exchange expires on the 1th Of
the present month, SO there is need for
haste on the part of the department. The
exchange copies from Germany and Eng
land are now, however. on the sea. and
they are expected to be here in season.
The exchange will be conducted according
to precedents established in the case Of the
treaty providing for the division of the
samoan group, namely, the exchanges will
TAKE place simultaneously in Washington,
London and Berlin. A curious feature of
the present case, however, is the fact that
although only two languages are used in
the drafts Of the treaties the convention is
written down in three parallel columns
rms course was adopted because there is a
ci1erence in spelling certain words used in
the treaty ending in our in England and
or in the United States, and neither party
was willing to accept the spelling of the
other
