INTEREST AT WASHINGTON.
Washington, Nov. 5.-Official Washing
ton is looking forward TO the results or
the election in az states tomorrow with
many evidences of anxious interest. The
president is most keenly confirmed In the
outcome I'm New York state where
through Secretary Root he has made
known his attitude regarding the situa-
ton. The president is particularly anx-
ious, too, that the next house shall be OF
his political faith so that he shall not be
hampered in the prosecution OF his poll
cies. Although the Republicans are will
ing to admit that the Democrats are TO
make gains over their present represen-
tatlon in congress yet they do not con-
cede the former all that they are claim
ing.
only the Democratic congressional COM
mittee has maintained headquarters in
Washington and this fact makes the local
element largely dependent upon outside
sources for the ''straws' which show the
way the political wind is blowing.
