a Republican to the Senate under the
preference law.
Delaware is so close that an official
count must be made TO decide the po-
litical complexion of the Legislature.
In West Virginia a safe Republican
Legislature is assured.
Scattering returns from upstate In
dictate the adoption Of the S5O,OoO,oOO
good roads amendment, but the city
vote, supposedly against the measure
has not been canvassed.
The unofficial defeat Of Nicholas
Longworth in the 1st Ohio Congress
District was the most noteworthy
change in the Congress table. An off,
cia count will be necessary, however.
The third term candidates son-in-law

ton.
Large increases in the Socialist ana
Prohibition votes are shown as the re-
turns are tabulated. In Iowa the So
cialists almost doubled their vote and
in New Jersey jumped from 10000 In
1905 to 1000. In the nation at large
the Socialist vote exceeded 100000.
The Prohibitionists gained about ~
per cent.

Los Angeles Returns Fail to
Give Colonel Enough to
Overcome Wilson Lead
In Outlying Districts.


San Francisco. Nov. Additional re-
turns received to-day and tonight while
reducing Wilson's plurality, indicate that
he will carry the state, but by a small
margin-from 1000 TO 1000
Los Angeles Bull Moosers sent out word
to-day that press returns from the pre-
cincts of that city had been inaccurate,
and claimed a much larger vote for
Roosevelt than had appeared. The Demo
Gratis challenged the Bull Moose, and a
demand at once was made upon County
Clerk Lelande for a recount OF precinct
totals. At that time Wilson's lead in the
state had been cut down to 1885
The Progressives, with adding machines,
totalled Roosevelt's vote in the 455 city
precincts at 44,O25. The newspaper vote
counting bureau made the Roosevelt total
Al ,0i6. II the County Clerks count shows
the Progressive count correct, the Roose-
welt people claim their candidate Will
carry the state by from 1000 TO 1900. On
the other hand, II the newspaper bureau S
figures are correct, Wilson's partisans say
he will win the state by the small margin
indicated.
In the city and county an even larger
discrepancy has been shown between the
totals compiled at Progressive headquar-
tiers and those gathered by the news
paper tally men. In 700 OF the 727 city and
county precincts the Progressives counted
Roosevelts vote as 1859. giving him
plurality OF nearly H.OoO. In 67 city and
county precincts the opposition count al
lowed a Roosevelt plurality Of only 1914.
Clerk Lelande later reported these re-
suits:
Los Angeles city. completes Roosevelt
1925; Wilson, $685..
In 253 out Of the 272 county precincts:
Roosevelt, s,5sl; Wilson, 1I7a. This
makes Roosevelt's plurality In the city
and county Of Los Angeles 1878.
In twenty-four counties In which VIII
son is in the lead only partial returns
have been received. These mostly are
from northern and central counties In
which the Democratic vote is heaviest
and each report from them shows gains
for Wilson.
