PENNSYLVANIA,

Philadelphia, Nov. 4,-Estimates
from more than half the counties in
Pennsylvania outside Of Philadelphia
and Allegheny county show gains for
the democratic state ticket. These
gains are Offset, however, by heavy
republican gains in Philadelphia and
Pittsburg, The returns indicate the
republican plurality in the state Of
from 100000 to 100000, Of which Phil
adclphia contributes over 100000 and
Plttsburg from 10000 to 10000.
Philadelphia, Nov. 4.-To-day for
for the first time in the history Of the
state more than 100000 votes were
east in an election, Samuel W. Penny
packer republican, was elected Nv.
ernor by an estimated plurality OF
$4,000 and the republican ticket was
generally successful in the various
counties, The'dcmocrats elected two
and possibly three of the 90 congress
men.

ILLINOIS.

Chicago, Nov. 4.-Meager returns
have prevented ct midnight anything
like an accurate statement of the re-
suit Of the election in the state of
Illinois, although there is every indi-
cation that the republican ticket is
elected by good majority The
next legislature will be republican
without a doubt and the successor to
United States Senator Mason is bound
to be republican.
In the Sixth congressional district,
where eX-Congressman William Lori
mer has been making desperate
fight to recover the position he lost
in the last congressional election, the
contest is exceedingly close. Lorimer,
with two-thirds Of his district to hear
from, had lead of Al votes, and it
will be impossible to arrive at the re-
suit in this con est before tomorrow.
The fight in the Third district is
also very close, but Wilson, the re-
publican, has lead of 200, with half
of his district yet to report. The
chances are that he will win out. 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.

ton. Mr.. Overstreet said there was
some chance of saving four districts
Of these 10, namely, the First, Third
Sixth and Fifteenth, but the hopes
raised of gaining the Thirteenth, Sew
enteenth and Nineteenth districts were
destroyed by the big slump for Coler'
The first district is that in which
President Roosevelt lived, and is now
represented by republican.
At ten o'clock Senator Plat stated
that Odell would come to the Bronx
with $4,000 plurality. At republican
headquarters the state is claimed by
from 10000 to $4,000.
Democratic leaders at headquarters
at 1915 o'clock informed callers
privately that Coler is probably de
feated, They virtually concede the
election of 0dell. To a representative
of the press, Elliott Danforth said
that the returns up to ten o'clock
were much more favorable to the re-
publicans. Secretary Mason, of the
Democratic state committee, said
that while the outlook was worse for
Coler he was not yet ready to CON
cede the election of Odell.

MISSOURI.

st. Louis, Nov. 5.-Missouri is dem
ocratic by safe plurality Rain
throughout a greater portion of the
state cut the vote down, particularly
in the heavy democratic counties, but
the republicans suffered some on this
score in localities where they have
heretofore had safe majorities, but
not so much as the democrats. From
the returns up to three o'clock this
morning the democratic plurality on
the state ticket will hardly fall be-
low 10000, and may be several thou
sand higher. Fourteen democratic
congressman were elected with pros
poets OF -. Both branches of the
legislature are democratic. With one
doubtful district to hear from, the
senate stands "a democrats and 0 re-
publicans, Several legislative districts
are in doubt, but the democrats Ger.
tainly have 76 and probably so out Of

ton Of democrat to succeed Senator

which was struck down and beaten

October Miss Agnes McPhee was as

her injuries. An iron wrench was
found and fixed upon as the weapon

other cases followed. the last OF

that the republicans would control
the next house Of representatives by
a narrow margin. In the present

republicans have 4Smaj ority. Underline
new apportionment the Fifty-eighth
house will consist of 1856 members,

therefore. for the democrats to Sc

In this they have at present 81 repub-
leans. The latest returns indicate
that this strength has been held, with
the exception 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 1865. The democrats
show they have made a gain of three

in Delaware, one in Wisconsin, two in
Maryland, one in Colorado and prob
ably four in New York, swelling the
