IN. J. DEMOCRATIC
 GAINS GREATER Revised Returns in That State Give Woodrow Vii. son 46,o0o Majority. GAIN 4 G0NGRESSMEN Democrats Will Dust United States Senator kean-House Ma.
 jOrlty Seventeen.
GAIN 4 GoNGRESsMEN

Trenton, N, J., Nov. 9.--Revised election returns received here today show that yesterdays Democratic e sweep in this state was even greater than was last night supposed. Dr. Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic can- didate for governor, has defeated the Republican nominee, z. M. Lewis. by more than 46,O00 majority.
 The Democratic majority in the house on joint ballot is now placed at seventeen and in addition the Democrats have gained four congress- men and carried hundreds of city and county offices in all parts of the state.
 This Democratic victory insures the election of a Democrat to succeed United States Senator John kean, Re- publican, and the turning over to the Democrats of hundreds of fat jobs that are now held by the Republicans.
 Governor Fort placed the blame of the Republican defeat on the last leg islature.

HE TAKES A RIDE:
But Declines to Discuss Politics Reads the Newspapers That
 Told the Story.

Oyster Bay, N. Y., Nov. g. Theo- dore Roosevelt has not word to say about the result of the election. He has apparently shut himself off from the world and intends to carry out the plans announced sometime ago that he will take rest until Novem- Der 17, when he will return to New York City.
 Colonel Roosevelt spent the greater part of the day reading the papers which told the tale of his defeat. He took a brief dash on his black charger over the road surrounding Saga more Hill, but even during this out ing he declined to discuss yesterdays happenings. He plans to keep his various engagement and then he will give at least two days a week to work in his editorial rooms in New York after November 17.

Two of the Republican Candidates Not Satisfied With the Re.
 suit of Count.

| New York, Nov. 9.-Republican lead- CTS finished up the details of the cam paign today and left the city. Hen- ry l.. StimsOn, who was defeated for
 governor by John A. Dix, will return to his law practice.
 He appeared at headquarters today f the. .best of spirits and -decaeFcd that, despite his arduous campaign of the last three weeks, he was in the best of health and rested. Ezra P. Prentiss, chairman of the Republican state committee comment ing upon the defeat of the Republi- can ticket, declared that both Secre- tary Of State Koenig and Attorney General O'Malley, who are reported to have run far ahead of the rest of the nominees on the Republican state
 ticket, were taking steps to have their votes carefully canvassed throughout the state. Whom the Lord loveth he chasteth,'' said MT. Prentiss.
 When asked if he had an e0plana- tion to make, upon the defeat of the Republican ticket, he added: While great many voters apparently vot- cd against Stimso@ because of their dislike of Colonel Roossvelt actively in the campaign. am positive th+t Colonel Roosevelt attracted thousands of voters to our standard during his splendid campaign

DEMOCRATS 22l,
 REPUBLICANS I69

sf the election was that Gannonisn and a1l it means were kicked out oi politics. It's significance is gone. It has been cast into the discord to keep the company with other things that flourished in times past, until the malignity Of them was discovered. It was an issue in Tuesdays election, but 1t was the kind of an issue that once disposed of was settled for good and all.
 Speaker Cannon himself, politically, conveys that peculiar turn of off, cial tyranny to which he gave his name, but only as a rather harmless old gentleman whose power has de- parted. The last important result of all, however, politically speaking, was that the Republican machine, that splendid organization the late Senator Hanna built up for the elec- tion of William Mckinley in 1896, was demolished. It worked beautifully for fourteen years and then for the lack of proper repairs, when repairs were needed, went all topieces in one day. With the National machine went state and county machines in New York, Indiana, New Jersey, Illi- no.s, Nebraska, Iowa, almost every where. And even a smooth running Penrose brand of machine in Pennsyl- vania had several of it's bearings jar- red loose.

 NONISM NO MORE Hn Magnificent Machine Goes to x Pieces in One Day-Of.
 E ficial Ffguers.

Chicago, H., Nov. 9.-When the six ty-second congress is convoked on the first Monday of December 1911, Ii not called sooner in extraordinary session, the Democrats will have 22l me1nbets and tie ReoucilrsEs lsi members. The Socialists will have one member, provided the official count in the Fifth Wisconsin district does not seat Henry Cochran, Repub- 1ican, in the place of Victor, Socialist The Democrats majority will be 52 at least sound working majority and by some members it is believed to be so large that it will be unweildly.
 The Republicans had a majority of 46 most of the time in the present Congress and by some of the stand pat leaders at least the weight of that majority is claimed for Insurgency. The description of the party in Tues days defeat at the polls in the Sen- ate by virtue of holdovers shows the Republicans will have fifty-one mem- bers and the Democrats forty-one members. That is Democratic gain of eight in the upper house of Congress. where gains are made slow ly because of the fact that but one third of the members are elected ev- cry two years. The Republican ma- jority in the Senate will be cut to the danger line and to point where another Democratic victory in .yl2 meansfa a Democratic Senate as well as Democratic House.
 The present Senate has ninety-two members and majority is forty-sev- en votes so the Republicans maintain their authority there by the narrow lead of four votes. The Senate in the Sixty-third Congress to- be elect ed in 1912 will have ninety-six mem bers as New Mexico and Arizona will have been admitted by that time and a majority will be forty-nine votes.
 It is practically certain that the two new states will send four Demo- crats to the upper house, so the Demo- crats will have to gain but four Sen- ators from other states to be in con- trol. The creation of the above con- ditions was one of the results of Tuesdays election. The figures may be changed somewhat in the districts where the count is close as in the Third Illinois, but such slight changes as are made will not materially alter the conditions and there were other results among them.
 The Democrats elected thirteen of the twenty-six governors chosen and but three of these governors were elected in the Southern states. The Republicans elected thirteen gover- nors, giving them Iowa, where there is still a lingering doubt. The ten Democratic Governors in Northern territory were all gained, but one or two, and they were all elected in states that will be important in the next Presidential campaign. New York led the ticket, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Ohio, New Jersey and so on.

Democratie Victories Mon, day Leaves Them With fa@H out a Leader. TAFT MAY NOT RUN
 -------r .' 54
 q, Again-Series of Conferences to Ra Held to Repair Damage-What
 Is Planned.

Washington, D. C. Nov. 9.-Presi- dent Taft will spend "a few days at sea thinking 1t over. The defeat of his party at the polls yesterday did not find him altogether unprepared. Mr. Taft may not be a politician. but he saw long ago the drift of the senti. ment and was not taken unawarea when the Republican cause was oyer- whelmed.
 The President has no comments to make on the result nor has he any plans yet for the future save to ad- minister the affairs of his office as In the past with the sole regard for what he believes to be his duty and the general interests of the country. He believes 1t to be true that soon-. CT or later his policies and the man. ner of administering the Presidency will be viewed by the people. Ac- cordingly he will go right on with his work, but it is admitted that some
 thing must be done in the mean- time.
 The Republican party just now is like 'a splendid automobile that lacks a steering wheel. A leader is the prime necessity. Someone must be found who will begin work immedi- ately on definite plans to repair the damage that has been done and put the organization in shape for the campaign for 1912.
 On his trip to Panama the Presi- dent will do some thinking. In his absence his friends will make care- full analysis of the result and have a report ready for him when he returns. There will then be series of con- ferences and in all probability de- finite line of action will be adopted. All this, 1t will be understood, will be done merely in order to put the Re- publican House in order. Just now the President is mind in any respects oAASO u "oo olAHouASCil HUH DCt6lly laat sn!ancr that the P'cs:de.' would nat seek q second .er"., that his chief amDlt.cn was to ryl.n0 IT.: his four year term with the accomplish ment of all his pledged reforms. Af- ter which, if the people want him for four years more, he may accept the call. And this is the only feature of the results yesterday that causes the President to concern the fear that through the election of Dem-,, ocratic House his exclusive program including the Federal Incorporation Bill, will be defeated or at least held up. |
 There was suggestion today that the President would endeavor to se- cure vision of some of the more ob- jectionable schedules of the tariff at the short session of Congress and that he will summon new Congress into extra session early in April, on the theory that the body freshly elect ed by the people. will be able to give the people what they want. But this is only a suggestion. It waits upon the analysis of the results. what the President wants. Also does the re- of tie Party. which Is talked about on all s..deS.

GOVERNMENT HOPES
TO END ALL STRIFE
Federal Authorities Take Firm Stand
as Regards Night Rider
outrages Resulting from
Tobacco War

T EXTINCTION, Ky, Jan. 23.-The de-
termination of the federal au-
- thorities to try to put an end to
the growing night rider outrages In
3parts of the tobacco growing sections
of Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana, Wade
H. Ellis, assistant to Attorney General
Wickersham, being named as govern
ment investigator, has called renewed
attention to the situation in the tobac-
co country.
It is openly charged that the Burley
Tobacco society, an association oil
wealthy tobacco growers forming a
pool and opposing the marketing or
crops by Independent farmers at prices
below those fixed by the society, is re-
sponsible for the burning of barns, the
whippings and the shootings that have
terrorized the tobacco growing country
for many months.
The allegation is vigorously denied
by Clarence LIE Bus Of Lexington,
president of the society, and by its
other officers, who declare that they
are mo more responsible for the out
RACES than any forward movement in
history has been responsible for the
disorders that attended its progress"
They assert their entire willingness
to have the control of the tobacco mar
kets by their society, numbering thou
sands of members, investigated by the
department OF justice or by any other
federal or state authority. Pooling of
crops in order to control prices Is not
forbidden by the laws Of Kentucky.

INFORMATION INDICATES
LULL IN C0UNTRY'S TRADE

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-As cul-
mnation of the yielding course of
prices of stocks discernible since the
first of the year, there was disor-
derby break Wednesday.
The immediate cause was the crash
in Hooking Coal, due to the rupture
of the market pool in that stock, the
calling of loans to members and forced
liquidation.
The failure of three stock exchange
firms and actual losses involved were
supplemented in their influence by ru-
more of wider troubles and by dis
creditable methods of stock market
operations thus shown to have been
employed.
The check to the decline when it had
advanced into the violent stage did
not prevent the recognition of some
substantial causes underlying the re-
action, beyond the mere correction of
speculative excess.
The purging of the credit situation
last week was testimony to the ne
cessity for correction and played an
important part in the midweel1's tum-
BILE of prices.
There We're items Of information that
pointed to a lull in the business ac-
tiyity of the country.
The substantial marking down of
prices of stocks and the reduction of
international rates on money induced
some investment in them, attracted by
the increased rate of return on divi-
dend-paying stock compared with in
terest rates on loans.
Easing Of foreign money markets
and the progress of the English cleo
tions brought improvement in the in
vestment situation abroad.

NEW COMET PLACED
IN CLASSIFIED LIST
PHOTOGRAPHIC OBSERVATIONS
ARE MADE
Celestial Body First Noticed by South
African Scientist Appears
to Observers in
Arizona

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Jan. 23.-The
luminous body now plainly visible to
observers in various parts of the coun-
try is a new comet. 1t is known as
comet A of 1910" and Photographic
observations made of it by the scien-
lists of Lowell observatory shows that
its light differs from that of most COM
cts, though it closely resembles the
great comet of 1882.
The new celestial body was reported
by DR.. r. II. A. Inness, of the observ-
atory at Johannesburg, South Africa,
on January 16. His name was given to
it, but as the same comet is said to
have been observed in Orange Free
State prior to that date, scientists here
prefer to call it 'comet A."
The newcomer has excited great in
terest among astronomers, who are
making close observations, but it has
not. yet been determined whether the
comet Will appear again.
An analysis of the Photographic OBJ
servations made here shows that the
new body differs greatly from comets
in general. The usual comet spectrum
consists of very bright series of hydro
carbon bands, but the comet now Wis
ible shows very light hydrocarbon
bands, with a pair of intensely bright
sodium lines. The striking orange
color of the comet head, observed in
various parts of the country, is said
to be due to incandescent sodium
Vapor.
