Washington, Nov. 6.--(Special. )--Tne politicians who have returned rom nearby States in which elections were held yesterday. differ in opinion as 70 the results according to the party to which they belong.
 Republicans. as a rule, appear to ex- tract considerable comfort out or the fact that returns received here indi- cate that their State ticket was suc- cessful in Kentucky. They are much disappointed, however, that the Ken lucky Legislature is reported Demo- cratic by a reduced majority.
 Republicans are unwilling to con cede that the liquor question cut as much of a figure in Kentucky as lne Democrats claitn it aid: The IoiIe. se. rather call 1t a straight knock out, Tor their opponents struck at party lines and would have it understood as mean ing that the State cannot De reHeo upon by the Democrats next year.
 The administration people and espe- ctailv the Taft sr1outers, are blue over the walloping given Congressman Sur. ton at Cleveland by Tom Jonnson, pvs they do not concede that tnls Essuis .sl will prevent Taft from optain.ns . Ohio delegation to the next Nationa'

Currency for the West.
 New York, Nov 6--Now that the monetary strain has been lessened locally, the New York banks began preparations today to ship all availa- ble currency to the northwest to aid in the movement of crops. Estimates of the combined amounts that the New York banks will send to the northwest within the next six weeks vary. The Chase National Bank and the First National Bank have commenced to ship daily sums hanging from &2S,000 to s50,000 to banks along the route of the Great Northern and Northern Pa cifc railroads.
 The bringing in today of gold from abroad has already proved helpful in expediting the movement of currency to the western wheat fields. The premi- um for currency became lower today and this helped several banks to send larger shipments of currency than would have otherwise have proved pos- sible to their correspondents west of the Mississippi River
 It was learned here today that the amount of the Government deposits di- rceted by Secretary Corteiyou to be placed in St. Paul and Minneapolis was s3,o00.000 and that the sum orig mated from Washington. The local sub-treasury, 1t was ascertained, Is prepared to ship funds west should Secretary Cortelyou deem 1t expedf- ent.
