Late Election Returns.
MARYLAND.


Baltimore, Nov. l0.-The State re-
turns are not all in yet. from what
can be gathered from the vote already
in, and the general utilization of those
parts not heard from, Maryland will give
Roosevelt majority OF l25 to $50. The
republicans are confident Of the result.
The republicans got three Congressman
and the democrats the same number.
OHIO.
Columbus, Nov. 10.-The republican
plurality in Ohio is estimated at z4o,
900. Every congressional district, save
the Fourth, where Harvey CARRIER, demo-
Graf, is returned, has been safely carried
by the republicans. The doubtful Filth
shows the election of Campbell, republi-
can, by 200.
DELAWARE.
Wilmington, Nov. l0.-The State
will give Roosevelt over 1000 majority.
The present outlook is that the rePubli-
cans will have 33 or 81 on joint ballot
OF the legislature. 1t requires q votes
to elect the successor to United States
Senator Ball. Addicks at present has
but % votes, and there is no possibility
that be can secure the other five.
MISSOURI.
Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 10-Incom-
pete returns from 80 OF 1l6 counties in
Missouri, tabulated here today, give
these f ures: Roosevelt 3,9967; Parker,
rs, 434; Folk, 56,SlS: Walbridge, 2l,-
$50. This gives the republica national
ticket plurality of IA, $50, and Folk a
plurality of 95, 1871. This includes all
the big cities and is the most complete
so far made.
St. Louis, Nov. l0.-li now seems
certain that Parker, Cook and Allen
have been defeated in the State, with
the remainder of the ticket, except Folk,
in doubt. The democrats lost United
State Senator through the election of a
republican legislature by at least IA
majority on joint ballot.
MONTANA.
Helena, Mont. NOV. lO.-hepuol-
cans with but one exception, made a
clean sweep, the exception being Joseph
X. Toole who is reelected governor.
The legislature is republican by %,
which means former National COMMITTEE
man Thomas II. Carter, will succeed
Senator Paris Gibson. The Roosevelt
electors have an apparent majority OF
1900. Joseph NJ. Dixon, republican,
was elected Congressman by about 8, 600.
COLORADO.
Denver, Nov. 10.-rhe situation in
Colorado is still in tangled condition,
but there is now reason to believe that
Adams, democrat, is elected Governor,
by about 1000 plurality. Roosevelt
electors have carried the State by about
90, 600 plurality.

Letter from Judge Parker.

Judge Parker last night gave the press
an open letter, addressed "To the De-
mocracy of the Nation" in which he
thanked those in charge of his cam
paign work, and declared that the people will
soon realize that the tariff fed trusts are alb.
sorbing the wealth of the nation" He said
that when that time comes the people will
turn TO the democratic party for relief. In
his letter Judge Parker says ne shall never
seek nomination for public office. He dis
cnSses the difficulties encountered by tie
democrats in making their campaign this
wear. and makes suggestions regarding. hsr'
mony in the party In conclusion the Judge
says that in the presence OF defeat ne u1es
grest moral question that confronts the demo-
crats is: "Shall the trusts and corporations
be prevented from contributing money to CON
troll or TO aid in controlling elections?" Such
service as / can render in that or any other
direction, F." he says, will be gladly rendered. ."

aARRoTED FOB MURDER;
LIVE TO TELL OF IT.

MADRID, Spain, Feb. l0.-At a re-
cent execution, out of four murderers
garroted, two survived and were sit
ting up when policemen arrived hours
after the execution to see if the bodies
had been removed by their relativs.
These men are legally dead. In a
court of law it will not be permitted
to impeach the records of their execu-
ton. Their rights and privileges before
the law are ended. They cannot sue,
be sued, marry, own property, vote
Or exercise any of the rights of a
citizen. Neither can they be held
accountable for their acts. If arraigned
for depredations it will only be nec-
essary to rest on the court record of
their death. The men may now watch
the administration of their estate and
the scramble of their legal representa-
tives to succeed them in worldly pos
sessions. They may attend the mar
riage celebration of their respective
widows and congratulate the step
fathers of their children.

TENDENCY OF TEE TIMES.

The tendency of medical science Is
toward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world Is being given
to the subject. 1t is easier and better
to prevent than to cure. 1t has been
fully demonstrated that pneumonia,
one of the most dangerous diseases
that medical men have to contend
with. can be prevented by the use Of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Pneu-
monia always results from a cold or
from an attack of influenza (grip).
and it has been observed that this
remedy counteracts any tendency Of
these diseases toward pneumonia.
This has been fully proven in many
thousands of cases in which this rem
edy has been used during the great
prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with i'm
plicit confidence. Pneumonia often
results from a slight cold when no
danger is apprehended until it Is sud
denly discovered that there Is fever
and difficulty in breathing and pains
in the chest. then it is announced
that the patient has pneumonia Be
on the safe side and take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy as soon as the
cold is contracted. 1t always cures.

making her way to Port Arthur, con-
voying five torpedo boats and Is des-
troyers, which, if they reach the far
east, will bring the Russian destroyers
up to 25.
RUSSIAN A POOR SAILOR.
The Russians greatest disadvantage
hes in the fact that he is poor sailor.
Intelligence among rank and file is
almost unknown, and what is the most
fatal defect, their engineers and arti-
ficers in the lower ranks are almost
universally incompetent, inexpert and
not in love with their calling.
The ignorance of the engineers may
prove costly, for the Russian navy is
equipped with the Belleville water tube
boilers. which the English navy found
so costly and inadequate.
The navy is the fashionable service
and Russian officers must be of noble
birth.
When this sidelight is thrown on
the Russian navy, it does not appear
SO formidable. The Japs are natural
fighters, quick, intelligent and can
adapt themselves to circumstances
readily. Born students, they make
excellent gunners.
JAPAN HAS ALL ADVANTAGE.
Japan has the advantage of fighting
on its own battle-ground. The Japan
csc ships have been built for fast work
around the island kingdom, and where
ships of other nations are built to
carry thousands of tons of coal for
long voyages. the japanese vessel needs
little coal capacity and the weight
thus saved is utilized in additional
armor and engines, giving protection
to vitals and allowing great speed.

SURE CURE FOR LAzINEss,
How Indian Workmen in Peru Were

for Not Working.

A division engineer who worked on 4

the work was miles away from civiliza-

that the superintendent could not get
others to fill their places, and they were
therefore exceedingly independent

You can be sure they were curious

them that they were sick. The other

time to time had the camp boy go UP
and battle their foreheads with dam

their vanity and pride could stand:
