CONGRESSIONAL SITUATION.

Washington, Nov, 4.-Up to mid
night Tuesday night definite reports
have been received from 207 congress
slonal districts out Of a total Of sOl.
OF these 11s showed the election Of
Republicans and SS in the election Of
Democrats. In the entire list there
were only two changes In political
complexion, and both were favorable
to the Republicans. The Democrats
lost the Eleventh Pennsylvania to the
Republican nominee, Henry w. Pal
mer, who defeated John Blgelow, and
thus becomes the successor to Mr..
Lenahan, the present Democratic
member. The Republicans also re-
gained the Third Wisconsin district
which was lost to Joseph W. Babcock
two years ago. Mr.. Babcock was de-
feated BY James w. Murphy, and Mr..
Murphy now appears to have gone
down before Arthur j. Kopp, the Re-
publican nominee.
Both parties have been counting
anxiously upon gains from the doubt
full districts of Ohio, Illinois, Indiana,
Missouri and other Mississippi valley
states, but the returns have so far
failed to throw much light on the con-
gresslonai situation Of that region.
