r. G. Dunn and James A. Martin, his
manager have conceded Johnson's cleo
ton. The Pioneer Press comedies the
state to Johnson by 1900.
The remainder of the republican state
ticket is elected by varying majoritieS,
including Ray W. Jones and the supreme
court justices.
The next Minnesota house will consist
of 107 republicans and twelve democrats.
The Roosevelt wave swept away several
democrats who had strong hopes of cleo
ton, and the republicans have the strong
est hold on the legislature that they have
held in recent years
Three Of the democrats elected are from
st. Paul and two from Minneapolis.
The senate will be as before, ifty-two
republicans and eleven democrats. There
was one election, to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of A. F. Ferris, re-
publican senator from the forty-eighth
district. John T. Frater, republican was
elected.
The legislature will therefore stand 159
republicans and twenty-five democrats
on joint ballot, and it will take eighty
votes to control the republican caucus.
Out Of 119 house members sixty three
served in the last house, and eight others
were in the 1901 legislature. There are
forty eight new members.

returns on governor. Where only one fig

Secretary Has No Intention of Calling,
at This Time, for Loan of $780,
100000 to Government.

Washington, Nov. 14.-In view OF the
published statement that Secretary of
the Treasury Shaw would make call
on government repositories for a loan
of $40, 900, itcan be positively stated
that no such call in the immediate fu-
ture is contemplated There is at the
present time, it was said, no pressing
need for such call Should it be made
at all, the probabilities are that it will
be some time during the month of jan
uary. Secretary Shaw said he had heard
from several quarters that he proposed
issuing the call, but it may be stated on
authority that the call will not be issued
until January, and may not then unless
some reason develops for its issuance
sooner, which at the present time is not
felt to be the case.

clare They Will Capture Port Ar

St. Petersburg, Nov. 15.-The latest
indications from the front point to an
early resumption Of military operations
on large scale. Field Marshal Oyama
has received heavy reenforcements
from Newchwang and evidently is
about ready to wage battle for the pos
session Of Mukden. The Japanese are
showing particular activity on their
right flank, as Ii they were contemplate
Ing a turning movement from that direc-
ton. Gen. Kuropatkin has fortified his
positions along the Shakhe river and
as he seemingly is prepared to accept
battle he doubtless has made DISPOSE
lions to block flanking operation.
According to the opinion of the military
authorities here his left flank is secure.
Signs Of Activity.
Mukden, Nov 15.-Since Sunday signs
of serious engagement taking place
within the next few days have been in
creasing. The Japanese are displaying
great activity eastward. Fears are be-
ginning to be expressed that the rail-
road will not be able to bring up suf-
hclent supplies. The Japanese on the
night of November IL attacked the viii
lage of Yuchanin simultaneously on
three sides, but were driven off with lit
tie loss. Saturday passed quietly.
There was occasional artillery firing
along the line, and especially on the
forts.
General Kuroki Killed.
Moscow, Nov. 15.-Nemirovich Dan

While Massachusetts gave Roosevelt
about $4,000 plurality, W. L. Douglass,
the democratic candidate for governor,

about $4,000.

democratic governor, while giving it's

In the remaining districts the repub-
1fcan candidates ran pretty well with
their ticket and were elected by good
safe pluralities.
The vote in Hennepin, so far as con-
gress is cocerned, was not obtainable
last night, except scattering precincts,
but it is certain that Fletcher is elected
over Kohler by safe plurality
Dunn held his own well in the Demo-,
cratic districts but strong republican dis
tricts were carried by johnson. two to
one, particularly in Hennepin county.
Minnesota will be represented in con-
gress during the next two years by a
solid republican delegation, the returns
received during the night indicating that
the republican candidates had been sue
cessful in every district in the state.
In three Of the districts, the fourth, sew
enth and ninth, there were no demo-
cratic candidates, and Congressman
Stevens, Volsted and Stevenson had
things all their own way.
The only district in which there was
hot contest was the sixth, but the in
dications are that Congressman Buck

Tunnel Up to Forts.
London, Nov. 15.-That the main de-
lenses at Port Arthur will be carried
by the Japanese at the next assault, il
they have not fallen already, is indi-
Gated by belated dispatch from Gen.
Nogi's headquarters. A correspondent
declares that the siege preparations
are complete and have been of the
most thorough character. The rocky
hills have been tunneIed with the
most arduous labor until the Japanese
works extend to within 100 yards OF
the parapets of the forts. Through
these tunnels the Japanese can march
to the Notifications without losing a
man and avoid the fire which has ex-
terminated their regiments in nearly
all the previous assaults.
More Troops for Front.

graphs correspondent at st. Petersburg
asserts that the emperor has decided to
send out the second division of in
fantry of the guards as soon as the troops
already called out shall have been dis
patched to Manchuria. The guards
usually are only sent to the front when
there is a monarch or grand duke in
command. The dispatch of these troops,
the correspondent adds, shows the de-
termination of the emperor to struggle
to the bitter end.
