Partial List OF the Congressmer
Elected.
Washington, Nov although thu
returns from the doubtful eongression
al districts were slow In arriving, thu
indications are that the Republicans
would control the next house of repre-
sentatives by n narrow margin In
the present house. with a membership
of 357, the Republicans have Al ma
jority. Under the new apportionment
the 58th house will consist OF 3S6 mem
bers, majority of which is 1874. The
Republicans have elected 202 mem
bers and the Democrats 1874. The
10 southern states, not counting West
Virginia, but including Missouri, have
1875 representatives. The Democrats
have carried lie of the districts and
the Republicans probably five, two In
Tennessee, one in Kentucky and two
| in Missouri, with two in North Caro-
| lima. one in Virginia and one in Ala
| bama doubtful according to the latest
returns. The Republicans elect 20
congressman and the Democrats In
Pennsylvania.
TO obtain a majority in the next
house 1t was necessary, therefore, for
the Democrats to secure IS votes In the
north and west. In this territory they
have at present So representatives. The
latest returns indicate that this
strength has been held, with the ex-
ception of one seat each from Idaho,
Montana and Nevada, as TO which the
returns are inconclusive. Adding 40 to
ZIG gives the Democrats 165.
The returns show the Democrats have
made a gain of three in Pennsylvania,
one in Nebraska, one in Delaware, one
in Wisconsin, two in Maryland, one In
Colorado and probably four in New
York, swelling to total to IFS. This
leaves them 16 short of majority,
with the result in five doubtful south
ern districts to be heard from and 81
doubtful districts in the north and west
to be heard from.
The latest returns add one Democrat
in New Jersey, one in Minnesota, one
in Illinois, one In Alabama and two in
North Carolina to the Democratic rep
rcscntation, total of six But two
of the gains credited to the Democrats
in Pennsylvania should properly be set
down as Fusion Republicans, making
the Democrats actually elected by the
returns thus far received 1874, with the
doubtful districts in Minnesota hav-
ing gone Democratic. the one in Kan
sas Republican, Kansas having gone
soidly Republican. and the one in Iowa
Republican. Three of the four doubt
ful southern districts went Democratic.
