DEMOCRATS ARE FEELING FINE Returning Congressman JubIant
 Over the Elections GORMAN IS CONGRATULATED
His Great Personal Victory in Mary land Has Given Impetus to His
 Presidential Boom-Pres-
 dent Roosevelt Blamed.
BY wATTERsoN sTEALEY.

Washington November 4.-(SpeciaL)- Arriving democratic congressman in Washington are jubilant over the result of, the elections yesterday All of them agree that for the first time in ten years there is light ahead and the prediction is made all over Washington today that by this time next year the Roosevelt ad- ministration will have been voted ou. of power. In the lobbes of the hotels and or street corners democratic members and politicians meet to talk over the situa- tion.
 Senator German of Maryland was in town bright and early. He was warmly congratulated over the great personal vic tory he won. When the immense impetus to his presidential boom the democratic victory gives him was mentioned the sen- ator smilingly declined to discuss the matter. He is getting ready to lead the senate minority. to legislative victories this winter. His friends say the presi- dential nomination will take care of itself. No National Significance. Republican members and the republican press say the elections yesterday had no national significance If they had carried Maryland New York, Kentucky and Rhode Island however, they might have been willing to admit there was some na- tional significance.
 As 1t is the democrats are more than satisfied. They carried every doubtful state and cut down the republican ma jorty in Massachusetts. Iowa and Ohio were conceded. With the circus tent and the Kansas City platform Tom Johnson did better in Ohio than might have been expected. The circus tent was too much like Roosevelt, the platform too much like Bryan for the voters
 Democrats who returned from New York this morning quote Leader Murphy | and other Tammany Hall politicians as saying that New York City i'll go against Roosevelt next year by i3O000 or upwards
 Carlisle Hopeful. l Former Secretary of the Treasury John | G. Carlisle says the democratic presi- dential nominee will certainly receive the | electoral vote of New York and surround ing doubtful states. "We have got out of the losing habit We will do something now" was the way one prominent dem-, ocrat expressed it tonight.
 The only thing the President had to say about the election was that he was 'gratifed' at the splendid majority in Ohio.' According to report circulated here tonight the President is not as

to Cavite he accidentally met Trias and was introduced to him by a fellow-trav- eler. In the course of the conversation which ensued, Trias secretary stated that the insurgents were in need of arms and ammunition, and that if they could obtain a supply sufficient for the equip ment of from 5000 to 10000 men, it would be an easy matter to drive the American troops out of the island and ultimately to secure independence; and that if Japan would assist the insurgents by supplying arms and ammunition the right to estab- fish a permanent coaling station. freedom of trade and railway franchises would be conceded.
 He then inquired how Mir. Hojo thought the Japanese government would regard such a proposition. MT. Hojo replied that he had no authority to discuss the matter in his official capacity, but that his pri- ate dpinion was that it would be absolute ly impossible for Japan to consider such a proposal or to render any assistance whatever to the insurgents, and he thought their wisest course was submls- sion to American authority. The conver- sation was carried on entirely by Hojo and the secretary, Trias merely listening. Although this interview comprised all the

 "gratifedp as he states. His personality was thrust into campaigns in nearly ali the states. especially Maryland and New York city. Having been defeated, he Is receiving a large share of the blame. Hanna's big victory in Ohio is again bringing forth the Hanna presidential boom.
 Talk of opposition to Roosevelts nom nation is more prevalent tonight than it has been at any time. What it will amount to no one knows. It seems al- most impossible to defeat him in con- yention, but stranger things have happen- ed. The lily whites may yet get q chance to laugh.
 ''rhe democratic victories of yesterday mean something" was the comment of Senator Morgan on the result of the cleo uons. Tt will tend to encourage dem- oerats every where, and makes them very hopeful of success in the presidential eIee- nons.' Naturally continued the Sen ator, we of the south kept our eyes largely fixed on Maryland, on account of the race issue.

MUST SHOW CARD.
Clerks Going From Winder Building
to the War Department.

The clerks in the office of the auditor for
the War Department, in the Wfnder build
ing, now have to obtain q card from the
chief Of their divisions when they go across
the street to the War Department on Off
ciaI business. There is necessarily consid-
cradle business at the War Department for
clerks of the auditors Office. and hereto
fore clerks passing out at the doors would
give their names to the watchmen, with
official business as the object Of their trips.
By the rules of the Treasury Department
all clerks passing out during working hours
are required to give their names and their
business. If clerk is going out on per-
sonal business the time Is charged to him
when the watchman has turned in the rec
ord, but If the record bears 20. B." on 1t
the time is not charged. Recently there
were SO many records of 20. B.-War De-
partment," that 1t was concluded that 1t
would be the part of wisdom to require
departing clerks to get from their chiefs OF
division permit. Whether this system II
to be extended to other branches Of tne
treasury service is not known, but it is
stated that If 20. B." appears too often
under the names of clerks going from the
big department building permits will be re-
quired throughout that department also.

MUDDLE IN NEW YORK POLITICS.
Possibility That the Fusion Plan May
Be Abandoned. -

r.. "frf
NEW YORK, September 30-Tha earlier
hours of the day brought no clarity to the
complicated political situation. In Greater
New York The spirit of hostility created
among the fusionists by the attitude of Con-
troller Grout and President Fornes toward
the Tammany coup Of placing them on the
democratic ticket is growing and the crisis
of the incident must soon be reached.
Senator Platt and Gov. Odell held long
conference at the Fifth Avenue Hotel this
morning and it is expected that some for
NAL statement will be given out by them
later on.
The fusionist leaders have been advised
that no legal obstacles bar the way to the
removal of any candidate from their ticket,
but any attempt to do will be resisted,
and such action would further complicate
the already involved situation. Leader Muir
ply of Tammany still maintains that he
will at the democratic convention tomorrow
night carry out the plan of nominating
Congressman Mcclellan for mayor and
placing Grout and Fornes the ticket.
The Kings county organization, led by
Hugh Mclaughlin, will probably accept Nc
Clellan. but may bolt Grout and Fornes.
Shortly before noon r. Fulton Cutting
announced that he had addressed a letter
in manner that would leave no poSs-
BILE room for doubt The complication over
the t-Fornes-Tam incident will
probably lead to the abandonment OF the
fusion plan to open the campaign on Sat-
urday night. 1t had been intended to have
a monster meeting with Low. Grout and
Fornes as the principal speakers.

MURDERED IN HAVANA.
An American Printer Fatally Stabbed
by a Footpad.


The State Department has received the
following dispatch from Minister Squiers
concerning the murder Of James G. Quinn
in Havana August 81:
'I have the honor to report the murder
of James g. Quinn, alleged to be an Amer
lean citizen. in this city the 31st of August
last. AS reported to the legation the facts
are as follows:
"Mr. James G. Quinn, an employe of the
Havana Post, was assaulted near the cor
ner of San Isidro and Compostella streets
in this city and stabbed eight times. dying
seven days later from the effects of the
wounds
1.-The full name of the murdered man was
James G. Quinn He came to Cuba with the
United States army in 1898, having enlisted
in the United States infantry at Cincinnati,
Ohio, and was discharged here. Shortly
after his discharge he secured position on
an American newspaper here. known as the
Havana Herald, and later became foreman
of the force of compositors on the Havana
Post. which position he held at the time Of
his death
Quinn was twenty-five years of age and
unmarried. He said that the last time he
heard from his home his father was
blacksmith anu lived at 26 West Liberty
street, Cincinnati, Ohio, but telegram sent
to that address was returned no one by the
name of Quinn living at that address. He
gave the name of his father as James
Quinn.
Mr. Quinn was unable to give any clear
account of the, stabbfng, as he was under
the influence of liquor when 1t occurred,
but said that he thought he had an alterca-
ton on the sidewalk with some one, and
that this had resulted in his receiving the
wounds. From evidence secured by the
secret police of this city it appears that on
the morning Of the murder Quinn was
walking down San Isidro street. when he
was approached by a man whom the police
claim is named Roselle, alias Mayorquin.
This man, according to two witnesses Sc
cured by the police, tried to rob Quinn, but
the latter realizing what had happened, de-
Tended himself. 1t was then that the thief
drew a knife and inflicted the wounds which
caused Quinn's death.
THE Cuban government has been very
prompt in causing the detection and arrest
of the supposed murderer and shall watch
this case and endeavor to see that the
guilty person receives his just punishment"
