RETURNS IN OHIO.
Republican Plurality Beats All Rec
ords in an "OR Year"


Columbus, O., NJ. with almost
complete returns in tonight, it is noted
that the Republican plurality beats all
records in what has become known as
the ''off-year," and with two excep-
tions. the records of other years. In
the "Off-years." or those following a
presidential election. the Democrats
have carried Ohio, the exceptions being
in 1851, after the death of Garfield.
and in 1885 and 1898. after the Cleve-
land elections. In two Of these three
exceptional years the president was a
Democrat and those were considered
'of-years' for the Democrats
With the single exception Of Hoadley,
in 1883, the Democrats never elected a
I governor of Ohio in any other than
"off-years." since the Republican party
was organized. and then they won on
a local issue of liquor taxation.
Wherever local issues were para
mount this year the Republicans sus-
tanned losses. notably at Columbus. on
account OF local option. and at Cleve-
land on account of Mayor Johnson s
agitation of taxation inequalities.

SETTLEMENT AT LAST.
Trouble in Northwestern Railroad
Ahlairs Patched Up.


Affairs Patched Up.
New York. Nov 6.-The Times VIII
say tomorrow: The main points in the
settlement Of the northwestern railroad
tangle have at last been made This
statement was made yesterday by
member of the Hartman syndicate.
and also by James J. Hill president Of
the Great Northern railroad. MANY
minor details remain unsettled, how
ever, and il is possible some Of the
main features may be sliE fly mOdt-
fed. 1t is expected, neVert 4eless, that
the plan in its entirety VIII be COM
pieted by the end of the present week.
The principal features of the settle
ment plan are the reorganization OF
the st0ckhOlding company ana the de-
cislon not to retire the Northern Pa
Cific preferred stock. The latter prop
Ositiou was one on which eenteTed the
major part OF the discussion, and it is
stated hat the contention Of the Union
Pacific interests that a permanent
peace could only be obtained by a due
recognition of their rights finally won

which the various stock issues are to
be funded, the former contending inter-

ton i'm its relation TO the settlement.
Regarding the reported settlement,
the Journal NJ Commerce viii say to-
morrow: An authoritative admission

the existing difficulties has been
reached was announced today. The
details of the agreement we're not an

le-rned however, that the currency
settlement involves the organization Of
a proprietary company which shall &C

DEMOCRATS GET MARYLAND.
Return Of German to United States
Senate is Assured.

Senate is Assured.
Baltimore, Nd, Nov. 6.-Returns re-
ceived in this city up to midnight and
including every county in the state,
partly official and partly estimated, in
dicate a result in the legislative con-
test which is almost without parallel
in Maryland. The most careful esti-
mates and calculations give the Dem
ocrats forty-six delegates and seven
newly elected senator's which, com
bined with the ten who hold over in
the senate, assures the friends of Mr..
German a total OF siXty-three on joint
ballot. The Republicans, it appears,
have elected forty-nine delegates and
six senators, which added to their
three hold over senator's, giving them
/ a total of fifty-eight on joint ballot.
These figures indicate that the Repub-
licans win be able to organize the
house of delegates.
The situation in Baltimore City is a
( peculiar one, in that the returns from
the Second legislative district are in
such an incomplete state as to make
/ the result there uncertain as to two
/ legislative candidates. The election
/ judges in two precincts became in
/ volved last night in a controversy over
/ the rejection of several ballots and
finally locked the ballots and the poll
/ books in the ballot box and turned
! them over 10 the supervisors of cleo
/ ton, with the statement that they de-
/ clined to sign the returns.
One of the Democratic candidates
! lacks but ninety-seven votes of cleo
/ ton and another needs but 103. The
/ Republicans seem inclined to concedJ
/ the election of the first mentioned
| when the returns are in from the two
missing precincts, but assert that the
other will be beaten. In the table o.
members, therefore but one Democrat
in Baltimore City is put down as prob
! ably elected, while the Republicans are
given sixteen. The ballots will not bt
counted until noon tomorrow, unit
which time nothing definite can b'
known.
One of the surprises of the day wa
the close vote in Allegheny county
heretofore safely Republican by MAORI
ties ranging from 1900 to 1000. TIL
Democrats have elected their senate
and one representative in that count,
and the result as to the remaining fou
delegates is close. st. Marys county
which has been considered doubtful
has gone sOlidly Democratic, and Wash
ingtOn Wilkinson, one of the pic
turesque figures in the Republican sid
in the senate, is relegated to privat
