In HIS new OFFICE.
President Roosevelt Again In
stalled at the White House.

Washington, Nov. 6-President Roose-
velt today began the transaction of busi-
ness in the new executive offices adjoin-
ing the White House. few finishing
touches still remain to be put upon the
building, but the interior is practically
completed and the office force has been
installed.
The president was in his office early but
before he had reached it the public re-
ception room was we'll filed with visitors
The president however. was kept busy
with Secretary Cortelyou until the arrival
about 10:30 almost simultaneously of At
torney General Knox, Colonel Clayton Nc
Michael, postmaster of Philadelphia, and
the members of the civil service commits
sion. The president greeted them together
and after a few minutes talk with Colonel
McMichael, he had extended consulta-
tion with the members of the commission
The president expressed to Colonel Nc
Michael his qualification over the results
of the election, saying that next to New
York, his principal interest was in the
keystone state. The members of the civil
service commission would not state the
nature of their business but. it is believed
the charge of violation of the civil service
laws in Pennsylvania was discussed

DEMOCRATS LOSE COLORADO.
Indications That the Party Has Not
Saved Thing "for Sure"

Denver. Col, Nov. 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 congress
men and that the Democrats will have
majority of 16 to IS on joint ballot in
the legislature unless the Republicans
obtain control of the lower house and
unseat the entire ArapahOe county dele
cation. The Republican leaders frankly
announce that they will carry out that
programme if it be in their power. In
such an event the senate, consisting of
25 Democrats and 10 Republicans, will
probably refuse to organize the legisla-
ture with the house and thus will block
the election of successor to United
States Senator Teller
On the face of the returns the house
membership appears to be SO Democrats
and 80 Republicans, but the Republicans
claim that the official count will re-
verse these figures The plurality for

ernor, over StiInson, Democrat, is about
5000. Franklin E. Brooks. Republican
candidate for congressman at large.

T. ShafrOth, Democrat, has a plu-
rality of about $500 in the First
district, and Congressman John c. Bell
was beaten in the Second district
by Herschel NJ Hogg, Republican, whose
plurality is figured at $500. Robert w.
Bonynge, Republican candidate for con-
gress in the First district, has announced
that he will contest Shafroth's election on
the ground of alleged registration frauds
and repeating in Denver The Republican
leaders are taking steps to bring to light
the frauds which they allege were perpe-
trated by the Democrats in this city. and
will demand an investigation by a special

AN OPEN QUESTION
Whether or Not Soldier May Fight
With His Fists.

Washington, Nov. 5.-The war depart
ment is reluctant to commit itself on the
subject of prize fighting in the army.
Some time ago the commanding general
of the department of the Missouri re-
quested a, decision of the department
upon the question of the request of an
enlisted man in the army to participate
as principal in an athletic boxing con-
test. In reply he was informed that
there are some subjects as to which it
is impossible for the war department to
prescribe uniform rule, and this IS one
of them. But apart from the strict law
IN tie case. it is a matter of common
information that local sentiment is di-
vided in respect to contests of the kind
described, and this adds to the difficulty
of framing d rule. were there no legal
obstacles n the way of its preparation" :"
There being no legal power in the de-
partment to esta ablish a rule on the sub
ject, the acting secretary of war decides
that the question presented be left to
the regulation of the post commander.

EVIL EYE. y
Judge McCabe Wouldn't Hear
About 1t in Court.

case in the city court today was the
result of the alleged hypnotic powers of
Carl Clifton, employe of the Western
Woolen mills. w. A. Patrick had Clifton
arrested for disturbing the peace. 1t seems
that Patrick so strongly believed in Cliff
tons black art that he became satu-
rated with the idea that Clifton was using
him for a subject They worked at the
same table in the pressing department.
and one day Patrick gave Clifton a first
class "cussing," and threatened to do him
bodily injury if he did not cease casting
spells on him Clifton came around the
table and put fresco touch on Patrick S
eye, and was subsequently arrested and
fined. Then he had Patrick arrested for
.'cussing'' and otherwise disturbing him.
Patrick was discharged.
Judge McCabe refused to consider the
possible hypnotic powers of Clifton, al
though Attorney Schoeh tried to look
grave while he was telling how the poor
young man was only tcussfng'' Clifton to
break the spell and defend himself against
the evil influence The attorney for the
defense tragicaliy stated that a man had
as much right to defend his mind as he
did his person.

ROOSEVELT DID IT.
His Policy Caused Republican
Landslide in Kansas.
Largest Gains We're Made in
Mining Counties.
FUSIONISTS GOT FIVE.
Out of los Counties Republicans
Get 100.
Bailey's Plurality in the State
Is 81 1868.
FUSIONIsTS GOT FIVE.

One very potent reason for the sweep
ing Republican victory in Kansas last
Tuesday was the great popularity of
President Roosevelt with the people.
The clean administration which Stanley
has given the state as governor is an
other.
The Roosevelt influence can be plainly
seen in the tremendous changes which
have been wrought in Crawford and
Cherokee counties the Populist strong
hold of the state Cherokee has never
been known to elect Republican ticket
in ten years. 1t has frequently given a
majority of 1000 or more against the
Republicans. Crawford has been nearly
as bad until two years ago, when the
Republicans won a partial victory. Both
are mining counties. Roosevelt's action
in settling the coal strike doubtless ap-
pealed strongly to the miners. for Craw-
ford county gave Bailey q majority of
800, and even Cherokee was carried for
him and possibly elected an entire Re-
publican county ticket The Republican
gain in these two counties alone was
about 1000.
Then, too, in Allen county where
there has been a tremendous increase in
the labor vote, which was looked upon
as an unknown quantity, the Republi-
cans made tremendous gains. Two
years ago Allen county gave Stanley a
majority of 484. This year it rolls up
approximately 1 200.
In Usage. another county with a big
mining vote. which has been Populist
got 700 majority this year to only 81 two
years ago.
According to the late returns today
Craddock carried only five counties. ana
| there may be some doubt about two of
these. Ellis county is now at the head
of the Democratic column, giving Grad
dock 400 majority Decatur county
comes next with 200, Thomas with 90.
and Rush and Lincoln are also credited
/ to Craddock, the former by so and the
latter by less than 80 votes. It is not at
all improbable that one of these may
| be transferred to the Republican COLI
umn when the final returns are in. Mr.
| CraddOck lost his own county, Wyan-
dotte, by about 1000 plurality
Shawnee county continues to stand at
the head of the Republican column by
rolling up a majority of over 3.000 To-
peka alone gives him Z.502. Sedgwiclx.
4 Reno, Doniphan and Allen each roll up
a ma ajority Of 1,200 or more while
Wyandotte, Marion and Douglas come
in with about 1,000 The o1d-time Popu-
list stronghold of Crawford misses the
1000 mark by only 100. Without the Sell
diers' home vote Leavenworth county is
Democratic by 200 but the vote of the
veterans throws it 500 for Bailey.
The following shows the majorities by
counties given on governor as reported
today. They give Bailey a net majority
of "a, S63, but some of the counties are
only approximated this total will be
somewhat changed:

full as regards the minor offices than in the
case of the governor. In some quarters it

ticket that he has been elected. There
are also claims that when the returns sor

Gratis. The Republican candidates in
both the doubtful North Carolina dis

day that they were elected, also the Re
