ROOSEVELT'S ANNOUNCEMENT
Declares That He Will Not Accept An
other Nomination.

Washington, Nov. 9. - President
Roosevelt, after the election returns
had clearly indicated the result, is
sued the following statement:
Il am deeply sensible of the honor
done me by the American people in
thus expressing their confidence in
what I have done and have tried to do.
| appreciate to the full the solemn re-
sponsibility this confidence imposes up
on me, and | shall do all that in my
power lies not to forfeit it. On the
4th Of March next [ shall have served
three and a half years, and this three
and half years constitutes my first

the president to two terms regards the
substance and not the form. Under no
circumstances will be a candidate for

CONGRESS BACKS ROOSEVELT

representatives and the Democrats 1876.
FOrty-three districts are still missing,
most Of them now represented by Re-
publicans
Washington. Nov. 8. - President
Roosevelt is assured of the cooperation
OF a Republican congress. The re-
cent Republican majority in that body
is thirty-four, and there need be no
surprise if this figure is almost doubled.
and it is reasonably certain to reach
majority of at least fifty. In prac-
tically all districts the Republicans
have held their own, while in some
significant instances the Democrats
have lost.
Probably the most marked of these
cases are the Fourth and Fifth dis
tricts of California (San Francisco,
now represented by Representative
Livernash and. Wynn, Democrats,
which reports indicate have been
gained by the Republicans. In the
Twelfth Ohio district Tayler Rep.), is
