indianapolis, Nov. 4-The wreck
of the Fairbanks political machine in
Indiana, leaving Senator Beveridge in
control, is forecasted by the defeat
of Fairbanks men. Watson was
Fairbanks candidate for governor and
he lost Senator Hemenway $ also
defeated.
Beveridge has always been close to
the Roosevelt administration, while
Fairbanks has never been identified
with it The new situation puts enor-
nous power in the hands of Beveridge
and gives him an opportunity to build
a machine greater than Fairbanks.

result He says the legislature will

New York. Nov. MANY contests
still remaining in doubt, mark the re-
suit OF the gubernatorial races over
the country today. Some OF them
may not be settled for several days,
The victory of Hughes over Chanler,
by $4,000, is one OF the big surprises
of the election.
Johnson. republican, is probably
elected in North Dakota over Burke.
Governor Warner OF Michigan, IL
probably defeated by L. T. Hemans,
democratic, though the state is safely
republican. f','
Chances favor the election OF DEM
ocrats in the hot contests of Indiana,
Nebraska and Minnesota. Governor
johnson is reelected in Minnesota by
a reduced plurality.
Marshall, democratic, has carried
Indiana under remarkable circum-
stances, as the state went for Taft,
anu al pNitl hfilONld aus VII lut StdAt

Shallenberger is probably the win
ner in Nebraska, though it is still
doubtful.
Governor Davidson. republican, has
carried Wisconsin, according to to-
days returns.
other governors elected are: An
sci, democratic, South Carolina; Ves-
sey, republican, South Dakota; Pat
tcrson, democratic, Tennessee; Cos
grove, republican. Washington; Glass
cock, republican, w. Va.
In Missouri the race between Had

tion of Governor Cummins for Uni
ted states senator at the primary yes
terday It IS thought the selection of
Cummins will put an end to the bitter
feud, conducted so long between the

ty. The returns today indicate that
the estimated republican plurality Of
10000 is too low.

Few Democrats in Washington.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 4.-Washington
Joined in the landslide for Taft with
heavy vote. A slow count makes
il impossible to determine accurately
the extent of the victory, although It
is certain the state gives Taft a plu-
rality of at least $4,000 and as indi-
Gated the entire republican state tick
ct is elected by handsome majority.
The Legislature will be overwhelming

Columbus, O., Nov. democratic
leaders today concede that Taft has
carried the state by 10000. Harmon,
democratic nominee for governor, is
elected by an equally large plurality.
Returns from the farming sections
are slow in coming in. Harris, re-
puhuC6n nominee for governor, was

San Francisco, Nov. 4.--The fate OF
the capital removing bill, providing
for the change of the seat of govern
ment of the state from Sacramento
