Armory, Boathouse, Power House and
Large Sea Wall Finished-Great
Change in Academy.

Annapolis, Nd, Nov. 4.-The first
stage in the construction of a new
naval academy at Annapolis was COM
pleted Saturday, when the contractors
turned their work over to the United
States authorities. The armory, boat
house, the power-house and the large
sea wall on the north side of the acau-
envy have been finished. This work has
changed the modest academy of old,
with it's green sward and simple build
ings, to the white city which will house
the finest training school of a like
nature in the world.
Commander Richard Wainwright,
who has been superintendent of the
academy since his heroism at the battle
of Santiago won his promotion in the
service, babe farewell to the staff Of
ficers and cadets today preparatory to
taking his leave, having been trans
ferred to a sea command. Next Mon
day, his successor, Capt. W. S. Brown
son, will assume his duties as superin-
tendent of the academy.

THE REPUBLICANS IN ILLINOIS.
State Ticket is Claimed to be Elected,
But No Figures Are Given-Cook
County Goes Republican.

Chicago, Nov. AT 0 o'clock to-
night it was claimed at Republican
headquarters that the state ticket was
elected, but no figures were given. 1t is
asserted that Lorimer in the Sixth and
Madden in the First district are elect
ed, though the vote is admitted to be
very close. Republicans claim to have
won everything in Cook county, but adj
nit the result as to sheriff in doubt.
Democrats claim the election of their
candidate for sheriff, who is running
ahead of his ticket.
By 10 o'clock it was evident that
Busse, Republican candidate for state
treasurer, carried the city by at least
$500, which will give him between 49,
600 and 1000 in Cook county. At DEM
ocratic headquarters it was conceded
the Republicans carried the county by
$1,000.
Five hundred and twenty precincts
out of 1910 in Cook county give Busse
for state treasurer 50,492; Duddleston
1894. Six hundred and sixty precincts
out of 1871 in Cook county give Busse
1858; Duddleston, 57,120. Seven hun
dred and seventy precincts out of 1871
in Cook county give Busse 77,402; Dud-
dleston, Democrat, 72,1S9.

Washington, Nov. 4.-Returns at

Chairman Griggs of the Democratic
congressional committee, at II tonight,
said the returns are too meagre to per-
nit a definite statement, but he saw no
reason whatever to change his original
declaration that the Democrats would
have a majority of % in the house. He
claimed a gain of five in New York, two
each in Massachusetts, Maryland and
Kentucky, n in New Jersey and h
ers from various states.
At midnight Chairman Griggs claim
ed the house would be Democratic by

ton of gains three in California and
Wisconsin, two in Michigan and two
in Minnesota.

SENATE WILL BE REPUBLICAN.
Status of the Parties in Next United
States Senate Will Be About the
Same as It is Now.

Washington, Nov. 4.-The next Unit
at least 16 majority against the pres
emf majority of twenty. The present
senate contains "a Republicans and "a
Democrats. The terms of thirty sena-
tors expire with the present congress.
There is a vacancy from Michigan,
caused by the death of Senator McMil-
Ian. OF those thirty-one states to be
filled not including two from Delaware,
but including the Mcmillan vacancy, 10
are now Republican and II Democratic,
Wellington of Maryland, being CLASH
fed as a Republican and Harris of
Kansas. McIaurin of South Carolina
and Teller of Colorado as Democrats.
AS it now stands the Republicans are
sure of II and the Democrats of "a
members of the next senate. The result
of the contest, owing to meagre returns
at this hour, is still in doubt in Nevada,
Idaho, Colorado and Utah, with the
chances favoring the election of Dem
ocratic legislatures in Colorado, Idaho
and Nevada, and a Republican legisla-
ture in Utah. If these probabilities
should be realized, the senate will
stand SO Republicans and 81 Demo
Gratis, with a loss of four Republicans
compared with the present political di-
vision. If the present Republican leg
islature should be called in extra ses-
sion and should be able to get together
and elect two Republican senator's be-
fore the legislature %convenes, Republi-
can strength in the senate would be in
creased by two, giving the dominant
party a majority of twenty, or mor
exactly what they have in the presen,

cate a large plurality but we are not

Scotch Nellie" was in police court again
today, charged with drunkenness. Officer
?. r. Smith, who arrested her, alleged
that he found her drunk in the Bucket
of Blood saloon, on South Washington
street, dancing with the Italians. When
he got that far in his testimony she
jumped up with blood in her eye.

It is approached through vestibule
