CENTERS ON CONGRESSMEN
Interest in Iowa Election Takes on Its
Final Aspect.
TEN REPUBLICANS ARE RETURNED
One Lone Pulls Through
in Second District with PIur-
alIty of Less Than 1000
Votes.
REPUBLICANS ARE RETURNED
CFrom a Stan Correspondent


DIES MONIES, Nov. 5.-(Special.)-The
political situation in Iowa remains I'M
changed. The sole interest is in the vote
on congressman in a few OF the districts.
The completest returns show that Judge
Wade (dem.) received a plurality of aboct
900 In the Second district. He carried Clin-
ton county by 405, Johnson by TAI, arr mad
about 100 each in Scott and Iowa. Eoffman
(rep.) carried his own county by 365 and
Jackson by 100. The vote for Hoffman was
less than expected in every county OF the
district. and this was due to the work Of
the old line democrats, who had organized
the district for Wade. In the Third dis
trict 1t is believed the plurality OF Judge
Birdsall (rep.) will be about 1000. Boies
made a great run in Dubuque and Black
hawk, but the republican majority was sut-
1cient to elect Birdsall. In the First dis
trict Hedge lost in nearly every county,
his losses being from 100 TO $50. but he will
have nearly 1000 majority in the district.
In the Sixth, Major Lacey has about 1000.
He had some losses, but gained in others.
He carried every county except Davis,
which is normally democratic, The major
ity for Haugen in the Fourth district was
cut to about $500. Only barest estimates
are possible in the other districts, as the
interest was so slight that the committee
men would not send in the reports. The
following is an estimate OF the pluralities
by districts.
