Estimated That the Taft Ma
jority in Buckeye State Will

Democrats Have Some Hope
Of EIecting Harmon Govern

ConCede Claims.

Cincinnati, o., Nov. 3.-Returns indi-
cate that Ohio has stood loyalty for the
Roosevelt principles and for her ''Fav-
orite Son. William Howard Taft,
whose plurality on the face of these
returns will be In excess of 100000,
although there is strong hope in
democratic minds that these figures
will be cut down materially. The man.
ufacturing centers, like Cincinnati,
Cleveland, Toledo, Dayton, Springfield,
and Youngstown voted heavily for the
republican national ticket, and Mr..
Bryan did not run as well in the rural
communities as had been expected, de-
cisively repudiating forecasts which
put the Buckeye state in the doubtful
column.
The only ray Of hope that the dem
ocrats can find is that Judson Harmon,
democratic candidate for governor, has
defeated Governor Harris by a plural
ity that will probably be something
over $4,000. although republicans who
do not even now concede this claim,
these figures will be cut down if they
be correct.

Estimated That MQrSkQlPS Majority
In Indiana Will Be 10000 With Bur
Little Chance of WQts0ns Winning

Indianapolis, Ind. Nov. 3.-The
night has been one of suspense and
uncertainty in this city. Owing to the
slowness with which returns in this
state were received. Early returns
showed the state apparently for Bry-
an, later. however, this was changed.
James P. Goodrich. republican state
chairman at first claimed the state for
Taft by 5000 plurality increasing his
estimate to 10000, and then dropping
to 5000. Returns have been very slow
from all counties with the exception
of those which together with Marion
county have voting machines.
Enough has been learned. however,
to show that Marshall has been elect
ed over Watson. The exact size of his
plurality has not been estimated as
yet. At IL O'Clock, however, it was
believed to be 10000.
The defeat of Watson is practically
assured although there remains the
bare possibility he may pull through.
His own party leaders. however, have
given him up. 1t is expected Taft
Will manage to carry the state by d
few thousand although the republican
majority has been smashed to nothing
practically. 1t seems as If Watson
has been the only republican candi-
date to suffer so far as the state tick
ct was concerned. Indications are that
the remainder of the state ticket will
come through.
Watson's defeat is openly charged to
the fact that Governor Hanly called a
special session of the legislature and
secured passage of the county local OPP
ton law.
Congressional Claims.
Fred A. Sims, acting state chairman
at IL O'Clock claimed that the follow
ing republican congressman had been
elected. Foster in the First, Barnard
in the Sixth, Landis in the Ninth,
Crumpacker in the Tenth, Good in the
Eleventh. and Miller in the Thirteenth.
He also said that CLANCY of the Sec
ond, Maxwell of the Fifth. Overstreet
in the Seventh, and Hawkins of the
Eighth might pull through. The
chances, however. he said were against
Overstreet and Hawkins. He did not
claim the reelection Of Gillans of the
Twelfth district
Democratic state committee still
claims that Bryan will carry Indiana.
The heaviest gains made by Marshall
were in the cities. He also gained
heavily IN many rural districts. The

New York. Nov. 3.-Governor
Hughes is being congratulated upon
his splendid race. He has been Tight

ing to those claiming to be independ-
emit voters fIe has been opposed by
the gambling and saloon element al
most to man. He has been opposed
by the gamblers primarily because of
his attitude on betting at the race
tracks and is regarded by some turf
followers as having killed the sport.
A more liberal man has been wanted
for the governors chair. Hughes has
been opposed by many OF the leaders
of the old ring OF the republican party
and this has made his struggle the
more interesting as he was recognized
as being opposed by men who super
fically appeared as favoring him. His
victory is signal triumph.

Indianapolis. Ind, Nov. 3.-All day
long the politicians have been puzzled
in this city over the fact that the vot-
ers seemed to be voting straight tick
cts. No one was able to figure out
just what this meant And another
thing that caused much comment was
that there was an enormous lot of
early voting. In many af the precincts
of this city. fully IS per cent of the
vote was cast by noon. This was re-
markable. and the wise politicians sat
up, scratched their heads and asked
themselves what 1t all meant
Not only was voting heavy in this
city, but reports from out in the State
indicated that an unusually heavy vote
was being polled everywhere else IL
there was any apathy during the cam
paign it did not last until election day.
In this city where voting machines
were used, men voted as rapidly as
three to the minute 1t was evident
from the short time they remained in
the booth that they were not doing
much scratching. 1t was known all
during the campaign that there were
many republicans talking about vot-
ing for Taft and against Watson. To
do this. of course, they had to scratch
their tickets. II they went into the
booths and voted straight, as they
seemed to be doing, the question was
whether they had changed their mind
and were voting the straight republi-
can ticket, Watson and all, or whether
they were afraid to scratch and were
voting the straight democratic ticket
rather than to lose their vote against
Watson.
And this was the case in all kinds of
precincts. The aristocratic north side
precincts in this city seemed to be
voting straight, as well as the work
ingmen's wards of the south side and
the foreign quarters OF the west and
southwest parts of the city. White
men. negroes. foreigners and all seem
ed to be following the same plan.
Republicans claimed this indicated
that the republicans who were dis

s Terror to Bad Men.

Every one in northern Mexico knows of Col. Emilio Kosterlitzky, the redoubtable commander of rurales in Sonora. He is terror to the load men," Mexican and American renegades alike. Roster litzky is not an American but he was at one time a soldier in the U. $. Army. Now comes a story of a pure American who is the terror of the "bad men" in the state of Michoacan. The romantic story of Chas. Allen the A merican, is briefly told by the Jalisco Times as follows:
 "One of the few remaining haunts of bad men in Mexico in the southwestern portion of the state of Michoacan, is being rapidly cleared of desperate characters by an American, according to reports received here. He is Charles Allen, son-in-law of Governor Mercado of Michoacan, and he occupies the post of prefect of Carrizal. So far as known, he is the only American in Mexico holding such position.
 "Allen studied engineering in the United States, and went to Morelia, the Michoacan capital, several years ago to become identi- fled with public works. There he met the daughter of Governor Mer- cado, and a courtship and marriage followed. After his marriage, which took place about four years ago, and up to the time that he was sent to Carrizal by his father in-law, Allen remained identified with public works in Morelia."

By it's pro. visions the largest railway system of the republic with a mileage of 3,104 miles becomes a part of the government system, which thus assumes the proportions of 6,575 miles of road in operation and about 1000 miles under construc- tion. The capital stock of the company will be $230,000.00O gold, and it's bond issue will be $417,- 100000, also in gold. This will be an increase in capital stock over the total capital of all the old sys- tems of $70,093,250 gold. and of bonded indebtedness of $2O4 ,9S5,- 8S7 gold. The increased bond issue and capital will be used in the i'm provement of the roads and the completion of the construction now under way, and also in the push ing of other proposed branches. Under it's provisions the railroads of Mexico will become, within a few years, models of the world in efficiency and perfection of roadbed and rolling stock, and will be pnshed to the very corners of the
