ENGLISH PAPERS SUSPICIOUS.
They Think Emperor Williams Visit
to the King BOdes No Good
to the Empire.

London, Nov. 10.-The Daily Mai,
and the Daily News throw doubt upon
the reality of the reported settlement
of the evacuation of Shanghai. The
former paper hints that Germany has
a secret understanding with China in
the matter, while the latter journal
declares that Emperor Williams visit
to King Edward is concerned with
this question and with an endeavo1
on the part of Germany to secure a
quid pro quo for German quiescence
while Great Britain completes her ar
engagements with Portugal with ref
erence to Delagoa bay.
The Daily News further ccuses the
government of imperiling the British
position in China in order to secure
the barren concession of Delagoa bay.
Colonial Secretary Chamberlain SIDE
termined, according to the Daily News,
to obtain a working agreement with
regard to Delagoa bay at whatever
cost.

the election of Peabody (republican)
for governor and II. NJ. Hogg (repub-
lican) for congress, in the Second dis
trict. P~eabody's plurality over Slim

that of Hogg will probably be great
err. The entire democratic ticket is

Of Mrs. Grenfell for superintendent

San Francisco, Nov. 6.-Complete
returns from San Francisco and par
tial returns from all over the state
indicate that George C. Pardee, the
republican nominee for governor, is
elected by a majority of two or three
thousand. The plurality of 5000 CIV

the democratic nominee, almost
wiped out the republican majorities
in the interior counties.
The legislature, which will chose a

The republicans have lost two con-
gressmen, Kahn in the fourth and
Loud in the fifth. The First and Sec

Mayor Tom l.. Johnson of Cleveland
Feels Encouraged.
Cleveland, o., Nov. 6.-Mayor Tom
l.. johnson, Wednesday, gave the
press the following signed statement
relative to the election:
"We are encouraged by the large
democratic gains in C~uyahoga coun-
ty, in spite of the fact that a large
vote was polled and a greater inter-
est aroused on the part of the repub-
leans.
"But probably the most encourag.
ing sign is the fact that where Mr..
Bigelow made his campaign outside
of Hamilton county satisfactory
gains were almost universal. The time
was too short TO expose the vicious
ness of the municipal code and of the
Cincinnati franchise grab. The re.
suit in Hamilton county was due to
dishonest election methods rather
than lack of interest. Cox and Nc
Lean controlled the entire election
machinery. There was nothing to
prevent either dishonest voting or
counting.
"We have already begun next years
state campaign. This is but the first
skirmish. The truth loses some bat
ties, but no wars"

Behalf of Ireland.

New York, Nov. 6.-King Edward
has been generally interested in TAX

ing the Boer was to an end. 1t is now
asserted, cables the London corre-
spondent of the Tribune, that he has
been complaining to the ministers of
the condition of Ireland, and that the
appointment of a new permanent Sec
rotary has been made in Difference to
his wishes. These rumors are ac-
companied by forecasts of a complete
revision of Secretary Wyndham's land
bill and the eni-oficial %nnounc
ment that the king will visit Ireland
in semi-state in the spring.

Seattle, WASH, Nov. 5.-The repub-
leans have carried the state of Wash
ington by a majority that may run as
high as 1900, though indications are
that it will be nearer 10000. The DEM
ocratic state committee does not
claim the election of any of its state
ticket, though insisting that the
meager returns received justify the
committee in insisting that there is a
chance for democratic control of the
state legislature. Chairman Morris,
of the republican committee, holds
that the republicans will have a ma
jority on joint ballot of fully 40.
The returns received up to this
hour seem to justify the claim of a
large republican majority in both
branches of the legislature.

cate a plurality for Samuel w. Penny

four f~usionists.
The incoming house of representa-
tives will be made up of 157 republic
ans and AZ democrats, and the senate

st. Paul, MINI, Nov. 6.-With the
receipt Of more nearly complete re-
turns, the majority of Gov. Van SAINT
assumes tremendous proportions. 1t
is at least $4,000, and may go as high
as 10000 record-breaking majority
in Minnesota for a gubernatorial can
didate. The governor has apparently
run considerably ahead of the balance
Of the state ticket, although the en-
tire ticket is elected by about the
normal majority. Eight of the nine
congressman are republican, the lone
democrat being ex-Gov. John Lind,
who succeeded in defeating Loren
Fletcher in the Hennepin county dis
trict.

Providence, r. l., Nov. 5.-Although
complete returns of Tuesday have
not been received, the results on hand
show that the democrats elect their
candidate for governor and lieuten-
ant-governor, with the congressional
place in the First district doubtful.
The democrats gain throughout the
entire state, electing mayor in four
of the five cities and cutting down
the republican lead in the house of
representatives. The senate remains
strongly republican. L. F. C. Garvin,
the democratic candidate for govern
or, with 131 out Of $50 districts heard
from, has a majority of nearly 5000
votes over Kimball.

Columbus, o., Nov. 5.-With more
complete returns the republicans say
their plurality on the state ticket will
approximate 100, 1000, and that the Ohio
congressman stand II republicans to
4 democrats, as in the last congress.
The pluralities in all of the four dem
ocratic districts are increased. The
only changes were in the Twelfth and
Thirteenth districts, and they Offset
each other. The democrats gained the
former by electing Judge Dewitt G.
Badger over Cyrus Huling and lost
the latter by the defeat Of DR.. James
A. Norton, who has been in congress
many years.

statement on the state election. He
said: "We have to be satisfied.
Odell's plurality is not nearly as large
as l had expected"
Senator Plat said that in his opin.
ion the trust question and the coal
strike had nothing to do with the re-
suit of the vote. "The democrats got
together, and held together, and a
few republicans slipped over to

DELAWARE.

Wilmington, Del, Nov. 5.-Returns
of the election for members of the
legislature in Delaware show that the
state senate will stand 10 republicans
and 7 democrats. The house will
stand IS republicans and 16 demo-
Gratis, with one district undecided by
reason of a tie vote. On joint ballot
the vote will De 2s republicans, %

Of the republican members it Is con-
coded that eight are opposed to the
election of j. Edward Addicks to the
United States senate. This promises
to produce another deadlock over the
election of United States senators at
the next session of the legislature.

THE ELECTION RESULTS.
The Story Told By the Ballots in
the States Which Held
Elections Tuesday.
NO GENERAL CHANGE IN COMPLEXION.
Republicans Retain ontro of the
National House of Representa-
tives, But with a Slightly Re-
duced Majority and a Loss of
Four In the senate.

New York, Nov. 6.-The elections
were held Tuesday in AZ states and
the returns thus far received indicate
that the control of the national con
gress remains with the republican
party. While official returns may
make the working majority of the
republican party in the house a close
one, there is no doubt hat it will be
sufficient for all party purposes. From
II national standpoint the control of
the lower branch of congress was the
real contest. The majority of the
states elected Legislatures which will
choose United States senator's, but
the result Oh these elections has in no
way imperiled the republican MAORI
ty in the upper body. In those states
which elected governors there was no
state in which the party in power was
not continued in that position. In
some of the states, however, there
Was a decided change from the vote
cast two years ago.

A dying patient RECEIVERS through the In

terposition of a humble German.
Chicago, Nov. 10.
Some weeks ago DIR. c. very reput-
able and w~idely-known physician, living on
c. Street, was called to attend a very
complicated case of Rheumatism. Upon
arriving at the house he found a man about
forty years of age, lying in a Frustrated and
serious condition, with his whole frame
dangerously effected with the painful dis
ease. He prescribed for the patient, but
the man continued to grow worse, and on
Sunday evening he was found to be IN a
very alarming condition. The knees and ell
bows and larger joints were greatly In
only with extreme difficulty that the pa
tient could be turned in bed, with the and
of three or four persons. The weight OF
the clothing was SO painful that means had
to be adopted to keep it from the patients
body. =.
The doctor saw that his assistance would
be of no avail, and left the house, the mem
bers of the family following him to the
door, weeping. Almost Immediately the
grief-stricken ones were addressed by an
humble German. He had heard of the
despair of the family, and now asked them
to try his remedy, and accordingly brought
forth a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil. The poor
wife applied this remedy. The first appli.
cation eased the patient very much; after
a few hours they used it again, and, won.
der of wonders, the pain vanished entirely!
Every subsequent application improved the
patient, and in two days he wal well and
out. When the doctor called a few days
after, he was indeed surprised.

WYOMING.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 5.-The re-

w. Mondell has been reelected by a
plurality of about $500. Gov. Richards
by a plurality of $500 and the entire
republican state ticket by pluralities
of 1000. They assert the Legislature
is overwhelmingly republican and
credit the democrats with three mem
bers at the most. The above is the
substance of a statement of repub-
lcan Chairman Van Orsdel.

GA and possibly 65. the senate will
probably stand 81 republicans and Is
democrats and the house ~ repub-
licans and rs democrats. The repub-
licans have elected 16 senator's and
the democrats 8 senators who hold
over two years and will form the
nucleus of the legislature that will
elect a successor to Senator Bever-
idge.

ing 51,603, as against 14,r1S for L. T.
Durand, the democratic candidate for
governor. That Bliss was ruthlessly
cut is shown by the fact that the
plurality of Judge W. L. Carpenter,
republican candidate for justice of
the supreme court, is 59,S16.

What Latest Returns Show.

Washington, Nov. 6.-The latest re-
turns received up to 1890 o'clock,
Wednesday night, show that the re-
publicans (including in this descrip-
ton the fusionists elected from the
Pittsburg-Allegheny districts in Penn
%sylvania) will control the next house
by a vote of 204 republicans to 179
democrats, with one district, the
Eighth Tennessee, and two California
districts remaining so much in doubt
that the official returns will be need
ed to decide the result. The totals
given are believed to be correct,
though there are a few districts, such
as two in Colorado and one in Mime
sofa, where the republican and demo-
cratic party managers respectively do
not concede defeat, but the general
result could not be affected even
should their claims prove well found,

on, republican, for congress, about

republican landslide all over the
state, with the result that in many
counties the democrats elected one
or two of Their county tickets,
where they had held more than half
the offices.

NEW YORK.

New York, Nov. 6.-Oficial figures
on the vote for governor vary but lit
tie from the unofficial reports. Ac-
cCrding to returns made to the exec
utive at Albany ly the several coun.
ty clerks the plurality for Odell, re-
publican, is 12,SS7. Only three coun-
ties above the Bronx were carried by
the democratic nominee, the aggre-
gate plurality for Coler in these u
ties being 1,011. This and the greater
New York plurality of 122,074 given
to Coler was roe, and over one by an
upstate republican plurality of 1885,
972, the difference being a net plural
ity of 1857, against 11,126 plurality
for Odell in 1900.
Returns of the vote for other state
officers are SO m,ager that it is i'm
possible to say if the democrats have
been more successful as regards the
minor offices than in the case of the
governor.
The state legislature is controlled
by the republicans by a reduced ma
jority, but n SO large as to admit
of no doubt of the return of Mr..
Plat to the United States senate.
The New York delegation in the low
err house of the Fifty-eighth congress
will number 81, instead of "a as in

ILLINOIS,

Chicago, Nov. 6.-Illinois returns
early estimates of substantial plural
tiles for all the candidates on the re-
publican state ticket, and it is O.
believed that the official count will
show the lead in the state to be not
much below 10000. The democrats
saved only one of.ce in Cook ceunty,
that Of sheriff, the republicans get
ting everything else. Madden, for
congress, however was defeated, while
Lorimer, on whom the bitterest fight
was made, goes in by q safe plurality.
Rodenburg seems to have Won after
a tough contest by 700 or 800 votes.
George w. Smith has defeated James
Jingle by about 600, and Pleasant T.
Chapman's election is claimed on
semi-authoritative figures by about
GOO. These were the three distrits of
the state which the democrats
thought they would carry.
The republicans claim 1T on joint
ballot in the legislature. 1t takes 1903
to elect a United States senator.
AS to subsidiary issues, respecting
the number and as to the election Of
a senator by popular vote of the peo-
pie, no doubt is entertained that they
have prevailed. The propositions were
well Endorsed all over the state, so
far as the returns show but little op-
position.
