International News Service:
NEW YORK. Nov. s.-The United
States senate is safely democratic.
The revised indications today were
that it will be made up as follows:
Democrats 81.
Republicans ~.
These figures are based upon the
larent success of Sen. Gilbert Nj.
Hitchcock in Nebraska, where at first
he seemed to have been defeated !;
A. A. Jones, former assistant secre-
tary Of the interior. in New Mexico;
J. b. Kendrick, democrat, in Wyom-
ing and Sen. Atlee Pomerene in
Ohio. Up until early today the re-
turns available indicated that all
four had been defeated by repub-
licans
The biggest surprises of the sem
atorial contest was the defeat of
Sen. ippitt or reelection by Peter
G.. Gerry, democrat, which was due
TO the latter receiving the united
support of the labor leaders and of
Sen. George Sutherland, republican,
in Utah, where the women voters
took things into their own hands.
The election of William NJ. Calder.

show his great popularity in that
state. as ne led the national and
state tickets by thousands Of votes,
in showing under completely " ,lliam
+. McCOmbs, original Wilson man
and former chairman of the demo-
cratic national committee.
Contest Is Planned.
Although on the face OF the re-
turns Sen. Chiffon has been substan-
tally defeated by his republican
opponent, Rep. Rutherland. in West
Virginia, the democrats will not con-
cede this and are preparing to carry
the contest into the courts and be-
fore the senate itself
IL had been freely predicted that
organized labor would defeat James
z. Watson, republican, in Indiana,
but the returns available here indi-
cate that he ran well up with his
teammate, Harry S. New. and that
both senators from the Hoosier state
are republicans.
The defeat of Sen. DUPONT in
Delaware was due to family troubles.
Members of his family who are on
the outs with him over business mat
ters financed the fight against him.
The result was the election of a
democrat. J. o. Wolcott, despite the
fact that Gov. Hughes carried the
state.
Pres't Wilson carried Maryland.
but he was unable TO carry through
with him David J. Lewis. the demo-
cratic senatorial candidate who was
defeated. his friends assert. because
he was an open advocate Of govern
ment ownership.
