IN President Roosevelt his congratula-
lions.
The perfect weather conditions
which prevailed over practically the
entire country brought out vote that
predicted a record breaker.
Pennsylvania heads the list as the
banner republican state, with the mag
nificent plurality of 325, O0O;New York
comes next with 1850. Nevada,
which was carried by Bryan four years
ago, is republican and the indications
are that Montana, Idaho and Colorado,
also democratic in 1896. have gone
back to the republican column.
Delaware is estimated at about 5000
republican,; Massachusetts, at about
A5 900 and Connecticut is about % 900
for Roosevelt.
While on the national ticket the
democrats have suffered crushing de-
feat, they have retrieved themselves on
some state tickets. They have revers-
ed the national vote by electing COVER
nors in Massachusetts,, Minnesota and
Colorado, Nebraska and possibly in
West Virginia. Montana also elects
a democatic governor.
At late ,,hour dispatches received
from Missouri said the democrats claim
the state by $4,000, but the republicans
do not concede his.

THE PAST WEEK OF THE WAR.
Japs Make Vicious Attack on Port
Arthur.

laps Make Vicious Attack on Port
Arthur.
During the past week public interest,
which had shifted from the Shakhe
river to the North sea, swung around
to Port Arthur, where series of ter
rife assaults presaged the possible fall
of the fortress. Reports showed that
the Japanese had been pressing nearer
for two months or more, and on Octo-
Der 26 series of attacks began that
continued into last week and gave
the Japanese hope that the fortress
might be compelled to surrender No
vember 8. the mikado's birthday. AL
though several vantage points were
gained and the sacrifice of life was
immense, Port Arthur at last accounts
was still holding out. The prevailing
Opinion, however, is that an end Of the
Russian resistance is near at hand.
The Russian feet left Vigo, Spain,
on Tuesday, contrary to the supposed
understanding with Great Britain, and
for day London was considerably dis
turbei by sensational stories from Glib
raltar. 1t was reported that the Brit
ish fleet, with decks cleared for &C.
ton, was patrolling the straits, and
that il Rojestvensky's vessels attempt
ed to continue on the voyage toward
the far east clash might ensue. The
danger seems to have been exaggerat-
ed, for the cabinets of both powers
were working for an investigation that
would clear up the North sea mystery
and place the responsibility where it
belongs; and the details of an agree
ment were agreed upon under which
the matter will be left to a board of
inquiry composed of five admirals, one
of whom is to be an American.
At the front in Manchuria there has
been no important change. Each army
is in close touch with the other, and
outpost collisions have been Of almost
daily occurrence. Numerous small
brushes have been reported, out Of
which has come some slight gain for
one side or the other, but nothing like
a general engagement has taken place.
The hostile forces are actually face
to face, in many places being so near
together that it is AMIDST impossible
for either to maneuver. No one can
say how long they can remain in this
unusual position without making ag-
gressive moves that will develop into
q great battle.

Los Angeles Electric Road Cuts Up a

Los Angeles.-At least 40 persons
were injured, some of them seriously,
in rear end collision on the Long

city to Longbeach had stopped at a
crossing just this side Of Compton to
take on passenger. There was a
dense fog prevailing. The car contain

Hardly had 1t stopped when work

borers and two foremen, which had
been closely following, crashed into it
at full speed. Not a person on the
passenger car escaped injury and some
Iof them have received frightful cuts
and bruises.
Motorman Seamons of the work car
was badly and perhaps fatally injured.
He stuck to his post and yelled to the
men on his car to jump. Some of them
did SO and were injured in that way.
A car bound to this city from Long.

Gates the Japanese to Force Russians
Out Of Mukden-Want It for Winter
. Quarters.

Mukden, Nov. 7.-Quiet continues
here. The Japanese are still working
hard entrenching their front, which
begins to look like continuous fort.
1t is believed they are preparing seri-
ously to advance, making their front
strong, possibly in order that it may
be held by small force while the
heavier. force engages in fanking
movements. tt " Japanese have learn
ed by bitter experience not to expect
much from frontal attack. They are
obliged, however, to maintain strong
front to prevent General Kuropatkin
from breaking through their line and
carrying the war to their rear.
There is considerable evidence to In
dictate that the Japanese will make
every effort to force the Russians out
of Mukden, not only for the moral
effect on Europe, but on China as we'll.
Mukden is extremely important to
them as winter quarters.
The Japanese continue to receive
reinforcements, and it is believed by
Russian military men that their only
chances for success in an advance
movement lie in that fact.

New York, Nov. Q, a. m.-If Mary
land has gone republican, as unofficial
returns at this hour indicate, the re-
publican vote in the electoral college
will be the unprecedented one Of S25
for Roosevelt and Fairbanks to 151 for
Parker and Davis. Not only is thisfar
in excess of McKinley's vote, 292 in
1900, but Judge Parker's vote is four
less than that given Mr.. Bryan four
years ago. 1t is practically certain
that the republican national ticket has
carried every state in the Union, out
side Of the SO called solid south. 1t
may take the official count to decide
Mary land.
The republican majority in the next
house Of representatives will not be less
than 80.
The period of suspense that followed
the closing of the polls was not pro-
longed. In no election in recent years
has the result been definitely known SO

it was Russia which desired the re-

is claimed by the paper that a Rus
sian official frequently had a conflden-

1t is pointed out by the paper that

statement is now made that they are
soon to receive some distinction from

The editor of the paper challenges

Cars Government Keeps North Sea
Incident a Secret.
London.-It begins to seem doubtful
whether the world will ever know
much more about the North sea trag-
edy than it knows now. Everything
London learns concerning the attitude
Of the Russians lends itself to the view
that the cars government has deter
mined so far as 1t is able to suppress
the truth touching the horrible affair.
1t is not believed here by those whose
opinions are entitled to the greatest
weight that the Russian admiralty is
without full information of what took
place off the Doggerbank. On the con-
trary. it is believed that the Russian
authorities are in possession Of facts
which show that her warships fought
one another with shot and shell, and
that there was not the sign Of an en-
envy anywhere about.
