NOT EASY FOR TELLER
DELEGATION FROM ARAPAHOE
MAY BE UNSEATED.
Organization of Colorado Legislature
May Be Blocked-Result in Con-
gressional Districts.

DENVER, Col, November 6-Nearly
complete returns show that the republicans
have elected their entire state ticket with
the possible exception of superintendent of
schools, and two of the three congressman,
and that the democrats will have a ma
pority of sixteen to eighteen on joint ballot
in the legislature, unless the republicans
obtain control of the lower house and un-
seat the entire Arapahoe county delegation.
The republican leaders frankly announce
that they will carry out that program If it
be III their power. In such an event the
senate consisting of twenty-five democrats
and ten republicans, probably will refuse
to organize the legislature with the house.
and thus will block the election of a sue
cessor to United States Senator Teller.
On the face of the returns the house
membership appears to be thrty-three
democrats and thirty-two republicans, but
the republicans claim that the official count
will reverse these figures.
Grand Jury May Investigate.
The plurality for Peabody (rep), for gov
ernor over stimson (den1.) is about 6OoO;
Franklin E. Brooks (repD, for congress-
man-at-large, defeated Alva Adams (dem.)

Robert w. Bonynge Cep), for Congress
in the first district, announces that he will
contest Shafroth's election on the ground
of alleged registration frauds and repe eating
in Denver. The republican leaders are taxi
ing means to bring to light the frauds
which they allege were perpetrated by the
democrats In this city, and will demand an
investigation by special grand jury.

According to Latest Returns on the
Vote for Congressmen.

Associated Press dispatches up 10 a late
hour this afternoon show that in the next
House of Representatives as the count now
stands there will be 17S democrats and 20S
republicans. a republican majority Of 30
The dispatches this afternoon stated that
Rodenberg (rep) was elected in the twenty
second Illinois district. and that in Colo
RADIO the republicans would get two rep
resentatives in Congress and the democrats
one. In California the late dispatches gave
five republicans and three democrats.
The original estimate of the republican
congressional committee IN the next House,
was minimum majority of % and a max
imum of 80.
Never in an off year" has there been
such a signal victory in the Congress elec-
tions for the party in control Of the admin
istration of the government. From Jack
sons time down to Grant it was the almost
invariable rule that in the election follow
ing the presidential election the party in
power would be confronted with a loss in
one branch of Congress.
President Grant had a uni.e6 Congress,
but the southern states were under semi
military rule. On down to McKinIey's
time the rule held good; there was a di-
yided Congress after the presidential cleo
tion.
With the prestige of a successful war
upon which to go into the campaign Con-
gress was won for the admin stration party
in 1898 by majority of 13.
Thus, in the "of year" and il the face
OF many apparently hostile natural condi-
tions the republicans have rolled up a ma
jorty of 30. which, taking into considera-
tion possible elements of doubt !n district
or two, is not likely to fall below 2S
Some of the changes since yesterday are
as follows:
In Nebraska the republicans carried the
first, third, fourth, fifth and sixth districts
and the democrats the second. In the
twelfth Pennsylvania Patterson (rep) was
elected, and in the fifteenth Monseu Other
changes are noted in the press dispatches.

Philippine Natives.

Famine in the Philippines is the subject

pital domestic who was killed Saturday
evening and for whose murder Alan G.

dered Miss Morton, and that Mason, who is
now in jail, is innocent.

has been described as a negro, Chief Watts
considered this new phase of the Waverley

This let's Mason out of 1T altogether
The chief said that he was using every
resource of the police department to locate

RICE FAMINE THREATENED.
Philippine Commission Has Bought
10000 Tons for Distribution.

The Philippine commission has quietly
purchased upward of 10000 tons of rice in
India and on the Asiatic coasts in order to
avert the rice famine which is threatening
many provinces. The plans of the commits
sioners were concealed in order to avoid a
further disturbance of the oriental market
and so as to prevent possible combinations
with the view of raising prices. The gov
ernment's stock of rice gives it control of
the local market and prevents operators
