victorious in Wisconsin yesterday by
a plurality estimated at $4,000. The

Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia, Nov AT 1 a. nj.
with IL counties still to hear from,
the indications are that Taft has car
r
ried Pennsylvania by plurality that
will be nearer 100000 than 300, 900.
The returns received show consider
able falling off in every county with
the exception of two. A heavy vote
was polled throughout the state,
owing principally to the many warm
contests in the legislative districts
The Republicans hold their own in
the congressional districts, if they do
not increase their representation.
3 There is practically no change in
the Republican representation in the
Legislature.
In Philadelphia the national ticket
carried the city by about 125,O00 plu-
rality. The entire ticket elected by.
a large plurality.
