that there will be a rising market for good

PRESIDENT ON ELECTION
Issues Statement That Results Are
Extremely Gratifying.

Washington Nov. president Roosevelt is
sued the following statement to-day regarding
the elections held Tuesday:
The President regards the results Of the cleo
tions as extremely gratifying. He has sent a
letter of hearty congratulations 10 Mr. Heney
on the result in San Francisco
The victory in New Jersey was precisely what
happened nine years ago. in the middle OF Pres
ident MCKinley's administration. He had car
ried New Jersey by 5000, and two years after
ward the Republican candidate for Governor
had $500, the vote being cut down just as
AS compared with the elections next preceding
the last Presidential election, we have done de-
cidedly better than did in 1903 Then. as
on Tuesday Rhode Island and Maryland went
against us; but this year we have Won a sweep
ing victory in Kentucky for the first time since
MCKiney's first election; and the victory in
Massachusetts was also remarkable. The show
ing in Pennsylvania and Nebraska is equally
good.
The showing In New York State a whole
was excellent-far better than was the case prior
to the last Presidential election. That the re-
suit in Manhattan due to purely local
causes is shown by comparing 1t with the de-
Cisive triumphs in Brooklyn. Buffalo. Albany
and in the state generally. The Presidents own
home county Of Nassau made a better showing
than il ever has in off year.
As a whole the showing has heen i'm
provement over what 1t was four years ago
and eight years ago.

TAFT TO VISIT RULERS.
WILL RETURN VA EUROPE
st. Petersburg, London and Paris
Included IN His Itinerary.
From The Tribune Bureau. 7

Washington, Nov. 7-Secretary Taft will visit
London on his return trip from Manila He will
also make brief trip to Paris where he will
meet the President Of France.
This was stated to-day at the White House.
where it was announced that it was now def
Initely settled that the Secretary would return
via Nladivostok and St. Petersburg.
1t is not known definitely if the Secretary will
call on Emperor William in Berlin. as it is
quite possible that the Emperor may be in the
Isle of Wight when Mr.. Taft reaches the Ger
man capital The Isle of Wight is only two
hours distant from London. however. so that it
is deemed more probable that the Secretary will
go there. as he could go and return the same
day, and would doubtless see the Emperor with
less formality than would attend audience
in Berlin The Emperor has extended an invi-
tation 10 Mr.. Taft TO visit him at either place,
according TO the date Of his arrival.
1t is assumed here that If Secretary Taft finds
that he cannot reach Berlin in time TO see the
Emperor before he starts for England he will
go directly from St Petersburg 10 London and
will make his headquarters there, making short
trips to Paris and to the Isle of Wight and sail
ing for this country from Liverpool or South
ampton
This would doubtless prove more convenient
than the programme originally arranged, ana
would entail little additional expenditure Of
time. In faCS the entire Trip rom MAMMA NlA
Russia will occupy less time than the journey
via San Francisco and will prove far more in
teresting than the long voyage across the Pa
cific.

decided to return home by way of Vladvostok
through Siberia and Europe. He has received.
through the American Consul at Vladivostok.
the assurance Of the Russian government that
the recent disturbances there will have no effect
on his plans
The Secretary will sail from here at noon
Sunday on the flagship Rainbow as the guest
of Rear Admiral Hemphill. He will reach
VIadivistok in time 10 take a train on the ST.
berian Railway on November 10. The cruisers
Chattanooga and Denver will accompany the
Rainbow as an escort Secretary Taft IS much
pleased that he IS able 10 carry out this origi-
nal plan of travel
He expressed great satisfaction to-day with
the result of the elections in the United states

Of the attitude Of the people on national issues.
He is gratined with the Republican victory In
