 In California repoit ts from 4,229 precincts out of 1872 reduced Will sons plurality to less ;han GOO.
 The majority of the missing pre- cine 5, however, are in counties showing pluTalt,es for Wilson and t S not believed that Wilson's small plurality can be taken away by the official count.
 Illinois, where Roosevelt's s plurality lwinuled through the day finally went to Wilson by an estimated plu- ral'ty of 15,O42. The few missing Drecincts are in counties either nor mally emocrat c or which gave Will son large gains in this election. It recame apparent early in the day that Wilson would capture the state, wrestling from Roosevelt is 29 elect,r ral votes, but still leaving h m in coutrol of the election machinery of th4 minority countless Edward F.. Dunno Democratic nominee fer gover- ncr, was given tremendous plural ity of 110,654.
 Wyoming, which has been uncer- tain, landed safely in the Wilson col umn.
 Control of the Senate n the sixty third congress is now assured to the Democrats Conceding theRepublicans all the four sta;e legislatures which are close or in doubt tie Republicans i W Il still have AS votes, or one-half i of the entire membership with a Democratic vice president to cass the decid ng vote in case of a tie. A senaocr from any one of the four states yet to i,e heard from will give the Democrats clear majority Indi- cations are that they will win II a 1 num,;er of these, thus increasing their strength to a real working ma jority.
 Ill addition to the control of the Senate that the Democrats will hold w laln their own forces, they will have the co:operation of the Progress sives tariff legislation.
 It IS believed that number of 1he Progressive senators, most of whom have supported Roosevelt, will now formally withdraw from the Republi- can party.
 Mlch uncertainty still exists in Tennessee, where Newell Saunders, Republican, appo nted to succeed the tate Senator Taylor, is a candidate for reelection.

N ill He Scrambled Aiter-,jeiIerson 'Gn;st! Gave Nearly sl,O0O
 to Big Fund.

Jefferson county may figure prom nea1i> the appointments that are 70 1e made by President Woodrow Wilson in this state. It was stated in this city yesterday that County Judge C. NJ Philpot, of this city, woull ge- rong endorsements at the propa. time for appointment to the position of United States marshal for tae Eastern D str ct of Arkansas, which is now held by H. l.. Rommel at Ll,le Rock. Judge Fhilpot was form ry sheriff in this county and rose to that position from chief of police and constable. He was regard ed as one of the best sheriffs in the state and served as president of the S.ate Sheriff's Assoc at on. News came ,lom Little Rock yesterday that his name was being prominetly men, toned for Remmel's place. The only other man thus far mentioned for that Eosi ion was former Sheriff Frank NJ lwee, of Clarendon, Monroe county. Milwee, who opposed Governor elect i Joe I. Robinson and was one of Don aghevs chief lieutenants during his two campaigns, will doubtless have to get the approval of Governor Rob- inson, which it is stated will most likely go to Judge Philpot. Con- sres3nlan Robinson's influence al Wash ngton is recognized here and as Governor his influence will be added to materially.
 Th4re are many positions to be filled in this state and several in Jefferson county, includ ng the Pine Bluff Pcstmastership. Majcr Furh the present incumbent. will be sue ceedel by a Democrat. Many P'ne Bluffians are being mentioned for tie place. Among them are Charles H. Triplett, H. B. Strange, John D. Wilbourne, Meyer solmson, R. J. i McBryGe and several others.
 Tae Arkansas newspapers raised more than $5,000 for the Wilson Marshall campaign fund through the dollar subscriptions The Graphic sem nearly $2O0 to National Chairman Kavanaugh and more than $500 was raised through subscriptions by var ous Democrats in the county. The county Democratic committee donat- ed S100 and in all Jefferson county sent ,early $1,000 to National head quar-er the largest donation by any enc county in the state.
 Colgressman-elect S. M. Taylor of this city, will have someth ng to say about the various appo ntments that gre to be made in his district and h endorsement will mean much to asrirants for various plums. Al Hot Springs there are to be num- Der O. fine jobs to be given away and l Congressman Taylor will doubtless be overrun by candidates for them, seek ing his support.
