western Newspaper Union News Service.
New York, Nov. with the cleo
ton of Woodrow Wilson to the pres
idency and Thomas r. Marshall to the
vice presidency assured by the earlier
returns, the reports up to midnight
gave indications that the electoral vote
to the Democratic candidates would
pass the 800 mark.
The size of the popular majority Civ
en- the Democratic national ticket or
the states outside of Illinois that might
give electoral votes to either Taft or
| Roosevelt were matters Of conjecture.
1t was certain, however, that Illinois
would give big majority to Roose'
welt, while the race in Pennsylvania
was so close as to bring all three can
didates within range of success.
Early returns gave Governor Wilson
and Governor Marshall the solid
South" and the states of Connecticut,
Delaware, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland,
Massachusetts, New York, West Vir-
glnia, Indiana and Missouri,
AS the night advanced and returns
from the West began to come in these
earlier counts were confirmed, and
Montana, New Jersey and New Mexico
were added to those that seemed GER
tain for the Democratic candidates,
while scattering returns from San
Francisco and Los Angeles made it
probable that California might join the
Wilson Marshall column.
Rhode Island also became doubt
full state on the returns near midnight,
and based on the later votes reported,
1t seemed not wholly improbable that
its five electoral votes would go to
Wilson.
The early returns gave an apparent
victory to Taft in New Hampshire and
Vermont.
The vote in Utah gave indications
that that state would be carried for
Taft.
The vote in Pennsylvania was amaZ
ingly close, the returns from more than
a thousand precincts embracing over
$4,000 votes giving each of the three
leading presidential candidates more
than 10000 votes. President Tafts
lead in Philadelphia districts was Off
set by the heavy vote polled by Roose-
welt and Wilson in other parts of the
state.
Many surprises were shown in the
returns. The New York state assem-
bly, seemed to be overwhelmingly
Democratic.
In Illinois indications were that
Judge Dunno, the Democratic Candi-
date for governor. had won notwith-
standing the heavy Roosevelt victory.
Former Speaker Cannon seemed to
have been defeated for reelection to
Congress in Illinois.
In addition to Roosevelt's apparent
victory in Illinois, the confident claims
of the Roosevelt managers that Iowa,
Michigan and Kansas would fall into
the Roosevelt column seemed verified
by the partially complete returns at
IN early hour this morning. The re-
turns from California were meager,
but left the state in doubt between
Wilson and Roosevelt. The uncertain,
ty regarding Vermont was settled by
the announcement Of the complete
vote which gave TAFT majority of
924 votes.
At l2:45 the Providence, r. l., Jour
nal conceded that state to Wilson. and
with the result close in New Hamp'
shire It seemed probable that New
England entire. with the exception OF
Vermont, had gone over to the Demo
cratic column.
