Doubtful.

st. Louis, Nov. 5.-Returns com.
piled from every county in the state
give Bryan a lead v Taft in Mis-.
souri, of e. votes. From IS Of the
ia counties. however, complete re.
ports have not been received and for
these counties the statisticians made
careful estimates. Complete returns
from the missing precincts may
chance the result one way or another,
and it is probable that the official
count alone can determine whether
Missouri has given its IS electoral
votes to Bryan or to Taft.
The same tables which give Bryan
a lead of 81 votes, give Hadley for
governor a lead of 15,14S, making his
election over w. S. Cowherd a GER
tainty. This is the first time in near
ly thirty-five years that Missouri has
elected a Republican governor.
Indications still are that the Demo-
Gratis will control the legislature on
Joint ballot by four or five votes.

DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.
Republicans Practically Admit Defeat

Denver, Nov. 5.-Chairman Vivian
of the Republican state central com
mittee admits that the trend Of the
count of the vote in Colorado is to-
ward a Democratic victory, but still
hopes that complete returns will give
the state to Taft and that some of the
candidates for state Off will be sue
cessful. However, he comedies the
election of former Congressman John
F. Shafroth, Democratic candidate for
governor, and also comedies a good
majority of both houses of the legisla-
lure to the Democrats. This insures
the selection of Charles J. Hughes as
United States Senator Henry M. Tel
ler's successor, which will be made
by the next general assembly.

Congress Remains About a. at
Present.
Chicago. Nov. 5.-Three hundred
and eighty congressional dis
tricts have been heard from and the
political complexion of the Sixty-frst
congress, according to present infor-
nation, and with eleven districts yet
to hear from will be as follows:
Republicans, 211; Democrats, 1863;
necessary for legislation control, 1876.
1t is possible that the result in several
doubtful districts may alter these fig
tres within the next few days. The
Democrats have to date 1863 represen-
tatives against 2O6 for the Republi-
cans. One hundred and ninety-six
votes will control the house. The
house of representatives in the Six
tieth congress consisted of 166 Demo
Gratis, 223 Republicans, and there were
two vacancies.
The present indications are that the
Republicans will have about a two
thirds majority in the United States
senate, as the result of Tuesdays cleo
lions, or practically the same rs at
present. OF the 80 members of that
body, 81 hold ver, leaving only 81
places to fill. OF these, IS are Repub-
licans and 10 Democrats. Alabama,
Arkansas, Louisiana and Maryland al
ready have chosen Democrats, and
Kentucky and Vermont Republicans.

St. Paul, Nov. Ex-Governor John
sons plurality over j. f. Jacobson for
governor may exceed 10000 when the
returns are an in, while Taft's plural
itv over Bryan will be more than 100,-
0OU.
The estimate of plurality for John
son is based upon almost complete
returns from the cities and returns
from about tWo-ffths Of the precincts
outside the Twin Cities. Johnson's
plurality in Minneapolis is 9,591 and
his majority in Ramsey county is
around 5000. Returns from about
1000 of about $500 precincts outside
of the Twin Cities give Jacobson s.
705 votes and Johnson 81 1900. If the
same proportion is carried through the
rest of the country districts Johnson
will carry the counties outside Of
Ramsey and Hennepin by a little owe
5000. Adding this to the 10000 in
Hennepin and the 5000 in Ramsey
and he will have at least 10000 plu-
rality.
In the congressional contests Nc
Cleary, Rep, in the Second was de-
feated by Hammond, Dem, the pres
ent incumbent. by ar even larger plu-
rality than two years ago. The only
other contest of note was in the First
district, where James A. Tawney.
Rep, won out by 1000 votes after the
fight of his life. The other seven dis
tricts were strongly Republican.

Lee of retailing liquor. Sheriff Walsh,
accompanied by City Marshal Clifford
and Special Police Frank Allen called
at Lees and brought back with them,
an eight gallon key of beer, and a
ten-gallon key of whisky. Lee was
hailed into court and arraigned before
