COLORADO.

Denver.-Estimated pluralities by
counties, based on incomplete returns,
indicate that Bryan and the entire
Democratic state ticket. headed by
John F. Shafroth for governor, carried
Colorado with pluralities in the neigh
borhood of 5000. The Democrats prob
ably will control the legislature by a
narrow margin, insuring the election
of Charles ]. Hughes, jr., as United
States senator to succeed Senator Tel
Ter, Hughes having been indorsed for
the position by the state convention.

WEST VIRGINIA.

Wheeling.-While fuller figures We'd
nesday showed that Taft had carried
West Virginia by safe plurality of
several thousand, the state ticket may
not have gone through with him, Ben
nett, Democrat for governor, having
the better of the argument in probably
half the state. On these figures Ben
nett had more than 1000 plurality, but
the figure was so small that the Repub-
licans found satisfaction in the possi-
BILE overturning of that amount and
they claimed the entire state ticket.

Taft's plurality in the state of New
York is O3,495. more than $4,000 in
excess of Roosevelt's plurality of four
years ago. Gov. Charles E. Hughes
was reelected in New York state by
71.150.
The United States senate will retain
its present Republican majority.
Judge Taft has majority in the city
of New York the first time the big city
has given its vote to Republican
presidential candidate.
The Republican pluralities fell off
heavily in the middle west in a manner
surprising to the Republican mana
gers.
Representatives Payne of New York
and Dalzell of Pennsylvania have been
reelected and the house of represen-
tatives probably will continue under its
Ole regime. Mr. Payne will have
charge of the Lew tariff bill in the eX-
ira session, which Mr. Taft will call
Immediately after March next.

PENNSYLVANIA,

Philadelphia.-At l a. M, with IS
counties still to hear from, the indica-
tions are that Taft has carried Penn
syivania by a plurality that will be
nearer 100000 than 100000. The re-
turns received show considerable
falling off in every county with the
exception of two. The Republicans
hold their own in the congressional
districts if they do not increase their
representation. There is practically
no change in the Republican repre-
sentation in the legislature. In Phil
adelphia the national ticket carried
the city by about 125,00 plurality

MASSACHUSETTS.

Boston.-William H. Taft and Eben
S. Draper, Republican candidate for
governor. carried Massachusetts. the
former by about 100000 and the latter
by about $4,000 in the light of returns
from nearly three-quarters of the state.
On the same returns it was evident
that the Massachusetts congressional
delegation remained unchanged, IL Re-
publicans and Democrats.
The Republicans also elected their
state ticket and the usual majority of
members of both branches of the legis-
lature.

IOWA.

Des Moines.-Incomple returns in
dicate that Taft has carried Iowa by a
plurality of from 10000 to $4,000. This
is a tremendous falling off from the
Roosevelt plurality of 15S,0O0 of four
years ago, but it represents only a
slight falling off from the normal plur-
ality. The entire Republican state
ticket is elected, probably by about
the same plurality. Gov. A. B. Cum
Minis probably carried the Republi-
can senatorial primary over Maj. J.

CONGRESS-,

Washington, ID. C. The indica-
tions are that the Republicans will
have about a two-thirds majority in
the United States senate as the result
of Tuesdays elections, or practically
the same as at present. OF the 90
members of that body, 81 hold over,
leaving only 81 places to fill. OF these
19 are Republicans and IL Democrats.

DELAWARE,

Wilmington.-The returns from rural
New Castle county and from Kent and
Sussex, the two lower counties in Della
ware, are unusually slow in coming in,
but enough information has been re-
ceived to show that the entire Republi-
can state ticket with the exception of
Davis for attorney general. has been
elected. Gray, Democrat, for the latter
office has probably been chosen by
1000 plurality. Both parties claim the

Wilmi ing n.-Republican State
Chairman Dupont announced late Tues
day night that the plurality for Taft
will be 5000. The state ticket will
have the same plurality with the ex-
ception of Davis for attorney general

ILLINOIS,.

Chicago.-The Republican national
an state tickets gained a complete
victory in Illinois. although the plurali-
ties will probably fall short of those
obtained by the party in the campaign
of 1904. Taft has carried the state by
approximately 10000 votes, although
it will be some time Thursday before
the exact figures can be obtained.
Charles S. Deneen, Republican candi-
date for governor, ran far behind the
national ticket, but has been elected
by a plurality of about 100000 over
AGlai f. Stevenson, his Democratic op-
ponent. Deneen's greatest losses were
suffered in Cook county, which is his
home.
Stevenson, Democratic candidate for
governor, carried Chicago by about
5000. He lost heavily, however, in the
state outside of Cook county.
The legislature, which is to select a
successor to Senator Albert J. Hop
Sins, will be strongly Republican, and
it is likely that Hopkins will be re-
elected
Danville, Ill.-Joseph C. Cannon
was reelected to congress from. the
Eighteenth Illinois district by a plur-
ality considerably above the normal.
Returns are incomplete, but enough
figures have been obtained to show
that he will probably have a plurality
Of at least 10000. The result was a
surprise even to the friends of MIR.

Oklahoma City.-Complete returns
from 40 counties in central and north
ern Oklahoma, received by Chairman
Thompson of the Democratic state cen,

of 1900. The counties yet to be heard
from are largely Democratic. These
probably will increase Bryan's plural
ity to $4,000.

ceGG Joseph B. Foraker to the United
States senate is assured by returns in
dicating that the Republicans have car
ried the general assembly by a sub
stantlal joint majority. A proposed
amendment to the constitution provid-
inG for a session of the Legislature in
January next failed of passage. When
this became known, it was said that
the Democratic governor-elect, Judson
Harmon, would have the opportunity
to name a senator to serve from the
expiration of Senator Foraker's term
in March next until the following Jan
uary, when the next regular session of
the assembly would be held. However.
it was disclosed Wednesday that the
Republicans plan to ask Gov. Harris TO
call special session before Mr. Har-
mons term begins, for the selection of
Foraker's successor. This could be
called since the term of the legislature
begins January l, ten days before that
of the new governor. A special ses-
sion some time during January is con-
sidered essential, because of the ex-
piration of appropriations.
Columbus, O.-Gov. Harris announc-
ed Thursday that he will call an extra
session of the legislature.
According to a dispatch from Cam
bridge, George White, Democrat, con-
cedes the lection of James Joyce, Re-
publican, to congress in the Fifteenth
district by 90. Congressman Albert
Douglas, Republican, telephoned to Co
lumbus that he had carried the
Eleventh district by 1900.

gressional delegation, securing one of
the Cincinnati congressman, although
Nicholas Longworth (Rep) won in his
district. In the Third district fac
tional fight among the Republicans

candidate
Returns SO far in show that the Re-
publicans gained congressman in the
Sixth district by the election of Jesse
Democratic member. The Republican
claim is at least 16 members in the
next Ohio congressional delegation.
Cleveland.-The count of the votes
cast in Cuyahoga county was more
than half finished at 10 o'clock this
morning. The ratio Of Republican
gains shown in the early returns of
Tuesday night is maintained through
out. Taft has carried the county by
possibly $4,000. The whole republican
county ticket has been elected, with
the exception of Charles p. Salen.
ansfield.-Returns indicate that
Bryan will carry Richland county by
700 and Harmon by 200. Sharp, Demo
cratic candidate for congress, will car
ry the county by about 500, and the
vote for state senator is close. The
entire Democratic ticket appears to
be elected, and Kuebler, wet" Demo
cratic candidate for representative, Is
a winner over Baxter, dry" Republi-
can candidate.
Steubenville-Taft carries Jeffer-
son county by 1000, Harris by 1900.
Hollingsworth, Republican, is elected
in the Sixteenth district by 1000. Du-
vail, Republican for senate, and Gill

elected. County ticket is elected.

BITTER POLITICAL FIGHT
Brings Arrests, Charges and Counter
charges In Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, June Am action
which, it is said, presages one of the
bitterest political fights that has been
witnessed in this city Tor a long
time, was taken here tonight by State
Senator James P. McNichol, in caus-
ing warrants to be issued for Max
Kaufman, until today secretary of
Mayor Reyburn, and D. Clarence Glib
honey, secretary of the Law and Or
der Society, on criminal charges. The
warrant charge in the case Of kauf-
mann is perjury, and in that of Glib
honey, libel.
The issuing of the warrants followed
the holding of Senator McNichol, the
acknowledged Republican organization
leader, earlier in the day, on a charge
OF criminal libel preferred by Kauf-
mann, who sought redress because he
was named by McNichol AS the go-be-
tween who had been paid $4,000 to
induce Mr.. GibbOney to make raids on
disorderly houses and gambling places
in 1905 and so discredit the admins
tration of the then Mayor John Weav-
err.
Kaufman. at the hearing of Senator
McNichol, took the witness stand and de-
MED that there was any truth IN the
statement that he had received the $4,000
from McNichol. He denied that he had
repre- scented himself as an agent of Glib
honey and declared that the stony was
absolutely false in every particular.
Immediately after the hearing Mayor
Reyburn sent a letter to Kaufman mott
flying him that he was discharged from
the position of secretary.
Hardly had it become known that kauf-
mann had been dismissed by the mayor
than the announcement was made that
Senator McNchol had issued warrants
for Kaufman and for Gibboney. who
had also heen witness for Kaufman
in the case against McNichol. Neither
warrant was served, but as in the case of
McNichOl the matter was left to the at
torneys to arrange a suitable time for
the hearings which, it is said, will prob
ably take place Saturday.
