State POlled 97,OOO Votes
 on November 8.
Two Coanties Have Not Reported. But Election Board Will Meet To- day-onicial Results as to
 Congressmen.

With Wilcox and St. Clair counties not heard from, sufficient returns had accumulated in the ofice of Secretary of State E. R. McDavid yesterday to approximate for all practical purposes the total vote cast by the State of Ala bama at the election on November to be 97,000.
 On the same basis, the Democratic majority reaches a total of 10000 or more. 3-
 The State Election Board, consisting of Acting Governor Cunningham, Sec retary of State McDavid and Attorney Gen eral Massey Wilson, will meet to- day about noon and will most likely de- clare the results of the election. The declaration of the results depends up- on whether the returns are received in time from Wilcox and St. Clair, the dereIict counties.
 Vote of the Parties. The delay, almost unprecedented. with which the County Board of Supre- visors have forwarded the returns to the capitol, has enabled the Secretary of State to make gradual tabuiations. In this way, with the two counties missing, the Democratic vote was 67,- 937; the Republican vote was 21,S77; the Populist vote was 4,609; the Socialist vote was S32, and the Prohibition vote was sol. -a B. B. Conner, the President-elect of the Railroad Commission, led the Dem- ocratic State ticket. His vote, without
 Wilcox and St Clair, was S1.6s6. l Secretary of State E. R. McDavid
 last night amassed the first figures
 which gave approximately the Presi- dential vote of the several parties in Alabama.
 The vote for Capt. Richmond P Hob-
 son, whose name was at the head of
 the Democratic electoral ticket, was 67937 exclusive of Wilcox and St. Clair counties. His associate elector- at-
 large, Hon. W. Fl. Sanford. received 67,917 votes
 The Republican leading electoral can ldidate. Joseph H. Montgomery, with St. Clair County. one of the party's strong holds, and Wilcox unheard from, polled l21.S77 votes.
 The leading electoral candidate of the Populists, Albert T. Goodwin, re- Iceived 460s votes.
 The Socialists fell behind the expec-
 tations of their electors, getting only S32 votes for their head electoral can
 didate. Jefferson County boiled 3S7 of
 these votes.
 The Prohibitionists won 601 votes for their head candidate for elector, W. T.. Daniel.
 The Congregational Results. | Unique occurrences were in the Eighth and Ninth Congressional dis tricts, where James w. Roberts and
 John T. B1akemore, Republican candi- dates did not poll a single vote in Limestone and Perry counties, respect lively. although they ran a fair race fin the other counties.
 With Wilcox County still to be heard from which makes Hon. A. A. Wiley's
 vote an unknown quantity, the election

WARRANTS ARE READY
STATE PENSIONERS WILL RECEIVE
 MANY TODAY.
There Are 15,4O7 of These COnfederates Or Dependent Member of Their FamiIies--They VIII Receive
 S35s.333.7S.

The hearts of 15,497 Confederate transformers throughout Alabama will be gladdened to receive today. most of them their warrants from State Auditor T. L. Sowen which aggregate $35S,333.7S this year.
 The warrants were sent out yester- day to the various probate judges and been busy on the preparation of these warrants since October are enjoying a little lax period on this account.
 It has been the custom in the past to issue these warrants to the counties consecutively where the Judges Of Probate would distribute them to the pensioIiers in the county limits. Thus one county would receive the war rants several weeks ahead of some others. But 1t was decided this year to make out the warrants and send them to the Probate Judges of the six ty-seven counties on the same day. Consequently, those pensioners who first received their warrants in pre- yious years have been besieging the Probate Judges of their counties to ob- tain an explanation for the delay in getting their warrants.
 The pension fund this year exceeds that of 1903 by $22,S96.0S. the increase being due principally to the advance made In the tax aSSeSSmCnIS. hS fund increased but the number of suc- cessful applications which poured into the hands of the pension board was correspondingly greater. The total of sSOS. .sS3.7S, making up the pen- sion fund this year, includes a special approriation of $5O.OOO by the legislature
 The pension fund is divided among four classes of pensioners based on the degrees of disability. These classes are as follows: First numbering 1$4 and drawing $45.45 each: Second, 146 at s37.75 each; Third, 169 at SS0,2O each; and Fourth, 15'o4S at S22'65 each.

A Royal Slave"

"A Royal Slave" was repeated at the Bijou Theatre last night and was greet ed by an enthusiastic audience.
 The play is highly seasoned. but 1t is one of sustained interest and thrill ing climaxes. The producing company Is good and the scenic equipment Is fine. Indeed. Gordon and Bennett, owners of the entertainment, have been lavish in the equipment provided for the entertainment Old Mexico Is the locale and the handsome stage pictures, the gorgeous costuming and other environment give the players a convincing background.
 The story of Mexican intrigue Is de- Veloped coherently. but intricately and the audience at the cosy little Blob Street playhouse last night relished every bit of it.
 There are some twelve or fifteen players In the company and at least hVe of them are very capable.
 MT. De Camp as Aguila. the slave, the last of the Montezumas, gave a finished. an artistic portrayal of q most difficult role. His reading, his gestures, his facial expressions. his treatment of human emotion, bore the stamp of an artist. Mir. De Camp treated the part with intelligence He was rewarded by several curtain calls.
 The scheming Countess De Ore was portrayed by Miss Murdock It is a thankless part, this heartless Mexican woman. and Miss Murdock succeeded in earning the cordial resentment of i'm questionable persons in her audience.
 MT Gilmaine as the priest, Mir. De- Roselli as the bandit king, and Mir Castleberry as the correspondent were very good
 The song numbers, introduced into the play, naturally. by Mir. Bowers and Miss Childers pleased the audience i'm mensely,
 "A Royal Slave" is a good matinee Dill and 1t will no doubt be liberally patronized by women and children thIs afternoon as 1t deserves to be. The engagement of the company in Mont gomery will close with the perform ance tonight
