Although disappointed at the re-

non was in happy frame of mind this
morning. Asked for an opinion on the
result he said
when the returns are all complete
it will be found that the Democratic
administration has been condemned
throughout the widespread of the land
and it is the evident purpose of the
people to return the Republican party
to full power in 1916. From the re
turns now available the Republicans
have made substantial gains every
where. 1t is reassuring to all members
of my party. The election of several
Republican governors was no great
surprise.
THE people of the United States
have shown their desire to return to
Republican policies and Republican

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-lAaWrence Y.
Sherman, Republican, was returned to
the United States Senate by about
$4,000 plurality over Roger c. Sui
livan and a Republican majority of
congressman were named from Illinois
in yesterdays election, according to
fairly complete returns received to-

With more than half the down-state
precincts reported. Sherman leads by
$4,000. The others still to report are
his strongholds, so that it appears
reasonably sure that Sherman will
come to Chicago with lead of 10000.
Sullivan carried Chicago and Cook
county by $1,000, which leaves Sher-
man a margin of $4,000.
Sullivan, however, early today re-

This is largely because of the over

HOW TO HEAL
SKIN TROUBLES

A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, rashes, and
similar itching skin troubles.
At any reliable druggists get jar of
resinol ointment and a cake of resinol
soap. These will not cost bit more
than seventy-five cents. With the resi-
mol soap and warm water battle the at
fected parts thoroughly, until they are
free from crusts and the skin is soft
ened. Dry very gently, spread on a
thin layer of the resinol ointment, and
cover with a light bandage-if neces-
sary to protect the clothing. This
should be done twice a day. Usually
the distressing itching and burning
stops with the first treatment and the
skin soon becomes clear and healthy
again. For free samples of resinol oint-
mont and resinol soap, write Dept. 81

VALPARAISO. Chilli. Nov. 4.-Offi-

nearly two thousand British officers

naval engagement off Coronel.
The British cruiser Monmouth, which
was sunk, carried complement OF
CTS officers and men, and the cruiser
Goodhope, the flagship of Rear Ad-
miral Sir Christopher Cradock, which
is believed to have gone down imme-
diately after the battle, carried nine
hundred officers and men. In addition
the British cruiser Glasgow and the
transport Otrano were struck by shells
from the German ships and damaged.
If, as believed, the fire-stricken and

the bottom in the gale that was rag

that Sir Christopher Cradock, who
was commander of the British squad
ron in Mexican waters, lost his life.
