Morning
az FREDERIC PAesT

Local motorists have long complained
of the terrific speed of the beach cars
out Sixteenth street. Two machines
were wrecked by cars Sunday, and dur
Ing the past few years the total num-
ber of vehicles which have been struck
by beach cars would be surprising. Not
only have automobiles been demol-
ished, but numerous horse-drawn We
hicles have suffered.
The street is so narrow there is
hardly room enough for vehicle out
side of the car tracks, and with cars
shooting by every few minutes at
thirty-fve and forty miles an hour 1t
becomes a danger to drive along the
street.
Hundreds of lives are endangered
daily along this street, where there
are cars every couple of minutes.
Strangers in that part of the city do
not know the conditions, and. if they
fail to almost stop while coming out a
side street they are running the gray-
est risks.
At Union avenue there is jog. and
this has been the scene of numerous
accidents. Hoover is another bad place
and Western has had a score OF acci-
dents.
People who ride on the beach lines
would not want the speed diminished,
make such speed on this line so long
will there be accidents.
Leon T. Shelter and r. G. Fenner,
whose cars will race to Baldy next
Sunday morning, met yesterday and
decided that the first car will start at
$3.50 and the second car thirty minutes
later. 1t will not be known which racer
will start first until ten minutes before

New York.-Generel election returns
received up to midnight show the follow
ing results:
Wm. H. Taft is elected with approx
mately 29s votes.
Practically no change is indicated in
the complexion of the national house OF
representatives.
Gov. Chas. E. Hughes has been re-
elected in New York State by about
$4,000 plurality.
Bryan has carried Nebraska.
Chic returns are very slow, owing to
the immense ballot, but Taft has car
ried it by large plurality.
Judge Taft may have majority In
the city of New York, the first time
the big city has given its vote to Re-
publican presidential candidate.
Mr. Taft will probably receive
greater plurality in New York State
than Roosevelt did four years ago. He
has exceeded Mr.. Roosevelt's plurality
in New Jersey, and had surprisingly
large vote in Massachusetts,.
The Republican plurality fell off
heavily in the Middle West, a matter
thoroughly surprising to Republicans.
Speaker Cannon has been reelected by
his usual majority. Representatives,
Payne of New York and Dalzell of Penn
sylvania have been reelected, and the
house of representatives probably will
continue under its old regime. Mr..
Payne will have charge of the new tariff
bill in the extra session, which Mr.. Taft
will call Immediately after March
next.
Missouri has returned to the "SoliG
South" on the presidential ticket, and
elected Cowherd as it's governor
There has been a shrinkage in the
Democratic vote in several of the South
ern States, notably in Virginia and North
Carolina.
Mr.. Taft has carried Wisconsin by a
plurality estimated at $4,000, falling
off from the Roosevelt plurality of 1861
900 in 1904.
Kentucky has gone safely for Mr..
Bryan by between 10000 and $4,000.
Representative w. S. Cowherd has
been elected governor of Missouri over
Hadley (R.) by about 10000.
Johnson Wins Minnesota.
Gov. John A. johnson of Minnesota
has probably been elected governor of
that State for third term, although the
State has gone safely for Taft.

Tennessee Is Democratic.

Nashville, Tenn.-At midnight returns
indicated the reelection of Gov. Patter-
son by a Democratic majority of be-
tween 10000 and $4,000. Secretary Luck,
at Republican headquarters, does not
concede this result, but expressed him
self as being satisfied with the decreased
Democratic majority. In Middle Ten
nessee Patterson was knitted to a consid-
cradle extent by the temperance Demo
Gratis, and in West Tennessee he also
ran behind Bryan in some counties, but
in East Tennessee he led the ticket.
Tillman lost heavily in some OF the
East Tennessee counties owing to the
opposition of Brownlow and the faction
al fight in the Second congressional dis
trict. Brownlow got in by $4,000 ma
jority, and Austin, the Independent,
has defeated Hale, the incumbent.
The congressional ticket in the State
is unchanged with the above exception

REPUBLICANS HOLD CONGRESS.
Democrats Lose Two Votes From North
Carolina.

New York.-Thc Republicans will re-
main in control of both branches OF con-
gress and in all probability by slight
Iy increased majority. 1t is impossible
at this time, because of the incomplete
ness of the congressional returns, to give
an absolutely accurate statement "f
either the senate or the house, but on
the best returns available, the Republic
ans appear to have made net gain OF
one in the house of representatives. Solid

South Carolina and Texas. The Repub-
licans apparently have solid delegations
i'm Delaware, Idaho, Kansas, Maine,
Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New
Hampshire, North Dakota, Oregon, Utan,
Vermont, Washington, West Virginia and
Wyoming.
According to the latest returns the
Democrats have gained a congressman
in California, one in Colorado, one in In
diana, and one in New Jersey.
The Republicans have gained one in
Illinois, one in Minnesota, two in North
Carolina and one in Pennsylvania. This
leaves the house with 226 Republicans
and 165 Democrats. In the senate the
Republicans apparently have gained and
lost a member of the upper house; the
gain is in Kentucky; the loss is in Ore
gon 1t is possible that they have gained
a member also in Colorado. The present
returns do not make this sure.

The determined opposition of the race
tracks and other interests which he had
antagonized during his term as governor,
seriously cut into the vote of Gov.
Hughes, and his majority will be not
more than $4,000 and may fall under
that figure.
Hughes pulled up steadily up State.
The vote was very heavy throughout the
State and it was gotten into the ballot
boxes early. The weather was fine and
the sun helped bring out the big Repub-
lican vote. Chanler failed utterly to get
out the votes in Greater New York that
had been expected he would.
The most remarkable feature of the
election was the manner in which Bryan
was slaughtered in New York City.
There is no question that Tammany

Republican State committee claimed
Hadley's election as governor, but de-

Colorado for Bryan.

Denver, Colo.-Colorado. seems sure
for Bryan, and the Democratic State
ticket shows a lead that indicates vic
tory. Scratching has been heavy in all
sections, Denver county's vote being 60
per cent scratches. Estimates at mid
night indicate that Bryan ran behind
the State ticket, and that the Democratic
plurality will be probably no more than
5000. The vote in all parts of the
State was heavy, with Denver breaking
all records John F. Shafroth of Den
yer seems to have a safe plurality for
governor. The legislature is very close,
with the Democrats probably having
majority of members. Charles j. Hughes
of Denver, lawyer, has the Democratic
pledge for United States senator.

Lincoln, Neb.-At 1880 Wednesday

Nebraska had gone Democratic by plu-
rality not far from 10000 for Bryan
and plurality scarcely less for the ma
tional ticket. AS was confidently ex-
pected, the result was surprise and q
disappointment to Republican manage
ment, which, while admitting the State
was doubtful on the national ticket, con-
fidently expected the State ticket to be
elected. The tremendous gain for Bryan
in the city of Lincoln was the sensation
of the election. Not only did Mr.. Bryan
reverse a Republican plurality of 1900
in his home city, but he carried it by a
plurality of something in excess OF 600

ILLINOIS PLURALITY REDUCED.
Deneen Ran Behind Taft-Stevens0n
Carried Chicago by 5000.

Chicago.-The Republican National
and State tickets have gained a complete
victory in Illinois, although the plurali-
ties will probably fall short of those OBJ
tained by the party in the Roosevelt
campaign of 1904. 1aft has carried the
State by approximately 10000 votes.
Chas. S. Deneen, Republican candidate
for governor, ran far behind the national
ticket, but has been elected by plurality
of about 100000 over Adlai E. Steven
son, his Democratic opponent. Deneens
greatest losses were suffered In Cook
county. which is his home.
Chicago and Cook county gave plu-
rality to Taft of $4,000, against 10000
for Roosevelt four years ago. Outside of
Cook county the plurality for Taft is
not far from 10000. The plurality of
President Roosevelt in 1904 was 304,93o
for the State.

TAFT CARRIES INDIANA.
Marshall, Democrat, Elected Governor by
Small Majority.

indianapolis, Ind.-Judge Taft's plu-
rality in Indiana may not exceed 1000.
Democratic State headquarters Chair
man Jackson and his associates have
not yet conceded that Bryan has lost
the State. They say the result is in
doubt, and that Bryan may pull through h
by a small plurality. This, however, is
the first 500 precincts reported com
pared with the vote cast for President
Roosevelt in Indiana four years ago,
show that Taft will run $1,000 behind
the plurality of Republicans in the last
national election. On this basis his plu-
rality would not exceed 1000.

Kansas Is Republican.

Topeka, Kan.-The early election re-
turns in Kansas indicate that Taft has
carried the State by $4,000 plurality,
and that the entire Republican State and
congressional ticket is elected by proper
tionate pluralities. The State ticket is
running close to the pluralities OF Taft
except where Stubs, Republican candi-
date for governor, is being scratched In
every precinct.
1t is not impossible that j. D. Bodkin,
Democrat, may be elected governor.

Cincinnati-Notwithstanding the mea-

they seemed to give a fair indication OF
the result, although positive statement
of plurality was impossible. All sections
of the State, both city and country, We're
included in the first returns, and the
same ratio continued, would give plu-
rality for Taft for president in his home
State anywhere from 100000 up. Cleve-
land, Cincinnati, Toledo and Dayton are
included in the first reports and in all
the Taft vote was very heavy.

Baltimore Shortly after midnight
Chairman Vandiver at the Democratic

claimed First and Second congressional
districts by 5000 and the State for

the election of John Gill, Jr., for con-
