BY NARROW MARGIN
Congress Likely to be Controlled
by Republicans.
NEW YORK FAvORS ODELL
His Majority Estimated Between 49,
600 and 2o,ooo-ohios and Indiana
Went Republican - Reports From
Other States.

Washington, Nov. although the
eturns from the doubtful congression-
al districts were slow in arriving, late
indications are that the Republicans
would control the next house of rep
resentatiyes by narrow margin. In
the present house, with membership
of 357, the Republicans have Al ma
jority. Under the new apportionment,
the Fifty-eighth house will consist Of
1856 members, majority of which is
1874. The 13 southern states, not
counting West Virginia, but including
Missouri, have 125 representatives.
The Democrats have carried 116 Of
these districts and the Republicans
probably five, two in Tennessee, one
in Kentucky and two in Missouri, with
two in North Carolina, one in Virginia
and one in Alabama doubtful, accord
ing to the latest returns. To obtain
a majority in the next house it was
necessary, therefore, for the Demo
Gratis to score rs 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 at this hour are inconclusive.
Adding 40 to 116 gives the Democrats
165. The returns show that they have
made 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 the total TO I7S. This
leaves them 16 short of a majority,
with the result in five doubtful south
ern districts to be heard from and
doubtful districts in the north and
west from which the returns are as
yet inadequate, as follows: West Vir-
ginia, 2; Ohio, l; Indiana, 2; Illinois,
2; Iowa, l. Nebraska, 1; Kansas, 1;
Minnesota, 2; Michigan, /; California,
2, and Utah l, a total of 81.

TWELVE ARE DEAD
Terrible Accident on Streets Of
New York.
EXPLOSION IN A CROWD
Fireworks Became Ignited-sixteen
Persons Picked Up Unconscious
People Were Out Celebrating An
nouncements of Election.

New York, Nov. 5.-Twelve persons
were killed outright and IA others
were injured by series of explosions
of pyrotecnic bombs and other fire.
works at Madison Square last night.
Many Of those killed were literally
blown to pieces.
The dead: Dennis Shea, patrolman,
of the Brooklyn bridge squad; William
G. Penney, IL years old; Harold Rob-
lee, IL years old; Nathaniel Bingley,
13 years old; Joseph Arber, 81 years
old. Five unidentified white men and
two unidentified colored men.
Fifty thousand persons had gath
cred in the square to witness the as
sension of an airship and a fireworks
display. The densest portion of, the
throng that packed the square was
gathered along Madison avenue, close
to the place reserved for the discharge
OF the fireworks.
A few minutes after 10 o'clock the
first row Of mortars was touched off,
but before the discharge took place
one of them fell over on its side, and
the next instant the bomb was shot
into the thickest Of the crowd, where
1t exploded and hurled the people into
heaps.
The jar of the mortar and the con-
cussion of the explosion knocked down
the rest of the row Of mortars, and a
laundering volley of huge projectiles
plowed through the crowd. Almost
instantaneously the second group Of
twenty mortars about 100 feet further
up. the avenue discharged their con-
tents into the crowd, and a moment
later the third group, evidently ignited
by the showers of falling sparks, ex-
ploded In the same manner.
In the panic thousands ran blindly
across the square, tripping over seats
and benches, and falling, were
trampled on. The police on duty were
carried along by the rush, and for half
an hour the widest confusion reigned.
The explosion took place among the
fireworks that were to be set off to
celebrate the announcement of the
election returns. The report was so
heavy that windows were broken in
the houses around the square. When
the first jamie had subsidized sixteen
persons were found unconscious on
the ground. Some of these. however,
quickly recovered. Others had been
horribly mutilated.
Five hundred extra policemen were
ordered on duty and the work Of car
ing for the dying and taking the
wounded to the hospitals was carried
on with all possible speed. 1t is stated
that fully fifty persons were more or
less injured. Some Of these, however,
were removed by their friends, while
others were taken to the hospital.

TERRIBLE CHARGES.
Alleged Prominent Nan Of Boston
Committed Several Murders.

Committed Several Murders.
Boston, Nov. 5.-Alan G.. Mason. a
prominent Boston clubman. Harvard
graduate and member of the piano
manufacturing establishment of the
Mason & Hamlin Co., was arrested
yesterday on suspicion of being con-
nected with the murder of Miss Clara
A. Morton. in Waverly, last Saturday
night.
IL Is also suspected that Mason was
responsible for various murders and
murderous assaults, fifteen of which
have been committed during the last
few weeks in Cambridge and vicinity.
Mason is thirty-nine years old and
Is a member of an old Bay State fam
lily, whose business associations and
social connections have been second
to none within the state. He was for
a time an inmate of an insane asylum
a few years ago, but was discharged
as cured. He at one time had vio-
lent aspersion to women, but appar-
emily recovered.
He has been seen lettering about the
Waverly asylum grounds at nights for
a week past.
Clara Morton, a Waverly asylum
nurse, was murdered Saturday night.
The young woman was robbed Of a
Eifling sum of money and the man
made off.
1t is the theory that the suspect has
an alteration which has magnified an
old rejection by woman into an in
sane conviction that he has been deep
ly injured by women and must have
his revenge. This is believed to be
the mania which has melted him.
State Officers Proctor and Durham
went to the Mason home, in Newbury
street, in the afternoon and searched
it thoroughly. Nothing was found
which would indicate that Mason was
connected with any of the mysterious
assaults on women in Boston and vi
cinity.
The police say they can prove that
Mason passed great many evenings
about the streets of Somerville and
Cambridge during the "slugger's" Pc
Rod of operations, and they know that
he often went to those cities on BIZ
cycle, such as Is said to have been rid
den by a suspicious person who has
been seen in the localities in which
the assaults have been committed.

The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1902-11-07

The congressional delegation remains
the same, with nine Republicans and
four Democrats. The legislature will
be about 20 on joint ballot, and Sena-
tor Fairbanks will be reelected to the
United States senate. This estimate
Is based on unofficial returns received
at the headquarters of the Democratic
and Republican state central commit
tees and from specials received from
every county in the state.
Columbus, Nov. 5.-The Republicans
carried Ohio by next to their highest
plurality on record Nothing above
10000 had been predicted, but partial
returns indicate that it will greatly ex-
coed that figure. At the same time
the Republicans made no gain In Ohio
congressman, and are likely to lose
one.
Chicago, Nov. 5.-Meager returns
have prevented anything like an accu-
rate statement of the result of the
election in the state OF Illinois, al
though there Is every indication that
the Republican ticket has been elected
by a good majority. The next legisla-
ture will be Republican without a
doubt, and the successor to United
States Senator Mason will also be Re-
publican.
In the Sixth congressional district,
where ex-Congressman William Lori
mer has been making desperate fight
to recover the position he lost at the
Hst congressional election. the contest
is exceedingly close.
In the city of Chicago the election
was full of surprises. The Republicans
triumphed in Democratic strongholds
and the Democrats returned the COM
pliment in fullest measure.
Milwaukee, Nov. 5.-Wisconsin has
gone Republican by at least $4,000 plu-
rality and Governor Lafollette and the
complete state ticket are elected. The
Republicans will also control the next
legislature, which will elect United
States senator to succeed Senator
Spooner.
Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 5.-The full
Democratic state ticket Is elected by a
large majority. LILLY white" Republi-
can vote not as large as expected.
Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 5.-The en-
tire Democratic state ticket, headed by
James B. Frazier for governor, has
been elected by majority estimated
at $4,000.
Jackson, Miss, Nov. 5.-The vote
in Mississippi was very light, the tabu-
lations so far made indicating total
of less than 100000. All Democratic
candidates for congress were elected
without opposition.
Reno, New, Nov. 5.-Ind1cations are
that Sparks, Dem, for governor has
carried Washoe county by about 400.
Returns point to fusion victory in
the state.
Boise, Idaho, Nov. 5.-Scattered re-
turns, mostly from the southern part
Of the state, show Morrison, Rep, for
governor running ahead Of Hunt, Dem.
The vote in the Gentle precincts was
heavily Republican. Definite figures
will We very late.
Dallas, Tex, Nov. 5.-Indications
point to the election OF The entire DEM
ocratic state ticket ano all congress
sional candidates.
Charleston, S. c., Nov. 5.-The Dem.
ocrats elect their entire federal, state
and county tickets almost without the
slightest opposition. Georgetown coun-
ty elects full Democratic ticket for the
first time in thirty-five years.

POLITICIAN SHOT DOWN.
Hon. Hale Johnson Killed in Row at
Boqota, III.

bingham, ILL.,, Nov. 5.-Hon. Hale
Johnson, a prohibition leader of ma
tional prominence and vice-presiden-
tial candidate on the Prohibition ticket
In 1896, was shot and killed by Harry
Harris yesterday afternoon at Bogota,
a village in Jasper county, thirty miles
from here. Mr. Johnson, who was
practicing law at Newton, the county
seat, went to Bogota to collect an ac-
count, on which judgment had already
been rendered, against Harris.
An alteration occurred between
Johnson and Harris, at the Harris
home, and the latter secured shotgun
and fired at Johnson at close range,
the charge striking Johnson in the
face and causing instant death.
Harris committed suicide in the
county jail by taking poison.

THE EMPIRE STATE.
Remarkable Situation Which Is Favor
able to Republicans

New York, Nov. 6.-Since Roswell
p. Flower, in a Democratic landslide
defeated ]. Sloat Fassett for governor,
In the face of Republican claims for
an easy victory. there has not been
such an overturning of votes from the
Republican to the Democratic party in
this state as that which took place
Tuesday.
With the exception Of Erie, Albany
and Rensselaer, counties, every Dem
ocratic prediction of sweeping major
tiles was carried out and amplified.
Especially was this true below the
Bronx. The claims of 10000 for the
Greater New York district were more
than verified. The failure to realize
Democratic hopes removed all chance
of Coler's election.
With registration 4 per cent be-
low that of two years ago, the Demo-
cratic party in the Greater New York
district showed a gain in voting pow
err in a majority of the counties of over
40 per cent and this tremendous gain
was met and defeat for the Republi-
cans averted by the also quite remark
able fact that several of Republican
upstate counties gave Odell larger
pluralities than in 1900, while several
others equalled their pluralties of that
presidential year.
Over its combined vote in the state
two years ago the Democratic party
gained at least 35' per cent, and the
Republican party lost 40 per cent.
From plurality of III, 900 Odell drops
to below 10000 loss of over 100, 1000.
Judge Gray, DEM. for Judge of the
80 ah ~
Coler in New York city, and Is prob
ably elected.
John Cunnean, DEM, for attorney
general, may also have pulled through.
While the Democrats have gained
three, and possibly four, members in
the senate, and about Is in the as
publican, insuring the election of a
Senator Plat.
clined to make any comment on the
result in this state.
Governor Odell says: "The victory
which was won Tuesday, In my opin-
ion, Is a rebuke to unclean politics."
The latest returns give Odell, Rep.
for governor, less than 10000 plurality
over COler, lem.
In Greater New York Coler's plural.
ity L. approximately 117,500. This
large plurality, however, was not SUI.
hcient to overcome the Republican
majorities from up the state.
The Democrats have probably gained
four congressman.
Philadelphia, Nov. 5.-Estimates
from more than half the counties in
Pennsylvania, outside of Philadelphia
and Allegheny counties, shows gains
for the Democratic state ticket. These
gains are Offset, however, by heavy Re-
publican gains in Philadelphia and
Plttsburg. The returns indicate Re
publican plurality In the state OF from
10000 to 100000, OF which Philadel.
phia contributes over 100000 and
Pittsburg from 10000 to 10000. The
Republican loss in the anthracite coal
region was not as heavy as had been
anticipated.
Estimates from every county in the
state show that Pennypacker, Rep,
for governor, has 140.993 plurality over
Pattison. Official returns will material
ly increase Pennypacker's plurality.
indianapolis, Nov. 5.-Indiana went
Republican by from $4,000 to 10000.
