KENTUCKY IS FOR WILSON
Democrats Elect 9 Congress
men Out of States Eleven.

Louisville. Nov. 5.-Reports from nearly
ons-half of the counties in Kentucky show
that Governor Wilson will have a plural
ity of nearly 10000, while the Progressive
and Republican tickets are running a
close race for second place. Late tonight
the Republican party had pulled ny to
within few thousand votes Of the Pro-
gressivcs. .....
The Democrats have elected nine Con-
greSsmen out of the states eleven One
Republican was elected. John W. Lang
" Rep) was unopposed in the 10th Dis
trict In the 18th District II. II. Seavey
Prog apparently has a safe lead over
the Democratic and Republican nominees
In the 5th District in which Louisville
is situated, the race was the closest In
years, ii taking the fun count before II
was found that the district had gone
Democratic. Congressman Swager Sber-
lev beat out the Progressive nominee TOT
Congress by only narrow margin.
Two killings in the mountain counties
rarred the day in Kentucky.
The vote was the heaviest in years. The
Socialist and Prohibition vote was even
lighter than usual.
Slxty-four counties, complete, OF the ~
in Kentucky give Wilson, 12o,I@; TAFT
5s,5S3; Roosevelt H,4s2.

The Bull Moose vote will total heaviest IN
the eastern section of the state, when II
normally Republican.
Governor Hooper on the face of early
returns will be defeated by the Demo
cratic nominee, Ex-Governor Benton r.
McMillin. by from 1900 to 9,ooo votes
Ex-Governor Malcolm r. Patterson ran
unopposed in Democratic preferential
urinary for United States Senator. HIS
vote will be extremely Hight. The hsh'
for United States Senator is centered In
the Legislature, which will name next
January both Senator for the unexpireu
term OF the late Senator r. j.. Taylor
and for the six-year term commencing
March, 1918. Coalition OF independent
Democrats with Republicans In many
counties makes the Legislature uncertain,
with chances favoring regular Democratic
control
The Congressional delegation Will prob
ably remain unchanged.

WILSON SECOND IN RACE
Democrats Add to Delegation in
Congress-Two Big Cities of
State Kept Electors from
Jersey Candidate.
[Rv Telegraph 70 The Tribune.

Philadelphia, Nov. 6.-Incomplete re-
turns at > o'clock this morning show
that Roosevelt has carried Pennsyl
vania by from 10000 to $4,000 plurality
over Wilson. The vote for President
Taft was smaller tean that for Wilson,
but larger than anticipated
At the final moment apparently many
the party and voted the straight Re-
publican ticket Just how many votes
Colonel Roosevelt got In Pennsylvania
cannot be absolutely stated but it is
about 100000.
The two big citieS-PhladeIphia in
the eastern end and Pittsburgh in the
western end-prevented Governor Will
son from adding the thirty-eight cleo
toral votes of the keystone State to
| his string. In Philadelphia the old Re-
| publican leaders were not as strong as
they were i'm Pittsburgh and did not
use the same means TO force their fol-
lowers to vote against Wilson. Here
many Of the politicians, especially the
| old ward leaders, told their followers
to vote on the Presidency as they saw
! fit.
Many Of them voted for President
! Taft I'm Pittsburgh william Finn,
the Bull Moose leader, and William
| Magee, the Mayor combined to defeat
Taft, the candidate of Senators Pen
rose and Oliver,
The complexion of the Congress dele
cation from Pennsylvania also has
changed. but the number OF Demo-
Gratis that has been added is uncer-
tain. Philadelphia seems TO have
elected two Democrats to the lower
house-Donohoe, who goes back from
! the 5th District. and Logue, Of the 9Th
District, who appears to be the winner
in three cornered fight in which the
Progressives placed a candidate in the
field against a regular Republican.
Latest returns show that Greggin-
son. a Socialist, was elected to Con-
! gress from the 2Sth District.
The indications are that the Republi-
car state ticket-RObert X. Young, for
| state Treasurer and A. w. Powell, for
Auditor General-was elected. The
| four Republican candidates for Repre-
sentatives- at-large were also elected
| The ticket had the Roosevelt indorse-
mont.
The count is still going on through
| out the state, ana in many districts Vt
will not be settled until tomorrow
night.
