indicate that the Democratic major.
ity in the house and of representatives
may be reduced from 145 to nine.
With many contested districts still
to be heard from with final figures,
the incomplete returns divide the
membership as follows: Democrats,
222; Republicans, 203; Progressives,
ten.
The Democratic majority in the
senate apparently has been increased
from ten to IA.

plurality outside the city was esti-
mated at 223.245, while 1910 of the
2,031 districts in Greater New York
gave Governor Glynn an estimated
plurality in the entire city of 1891,
cutting Whitman's estimated lead
down to 169,424.

elected.
Colby, Progressive candidate for

he received the support Of a large
number of Sulzer followers.

polled about 10000 more votes than
Davenport up state.
