plete returns on the congressional

The standings in the House will be as

barest possibility that they will over

they were claiming that even in the
event of their loss they will be Still

with the Progressives, Prohibitionists
and Socialists elected Tuesday.
They assert the Republicans will

If the Republicans come within one

If the Democrats are within four of 1t

Congressman Mann of Chicago will
be the next speaker if the final re-
turns give the House 10 the Republi-
cans. If not, Speaker Clark will be
reelected. While the Republicans
were maintaining the Leaf which they
took in the early House returns, they
were losing ground in the Senate
race.
Senator Pomerene in Ohio appears
to have defeated former Ambassador
Herrick. The result there is close,
however, and the final returns may
make Herrick the winner. Herrick's
election was believed certain early to-
day.
In Nebraska Senator Hitchcock
overcame the early lead of John l..
Kennedy. the Republican candidate,
and is now running a little ahead of
him.
In Missouri, however, Walter
Dickey. the Republican candidate, is
pressing Senator Reed, the Demo
cratic incumbent, closely.
Confirmation came of the defeat of
Senator Sutherland. Republican, Of
Utah. by Will II. King.
The indications are also that Sena-
tor Clark has been defeated in wyo-
ming by ]. b. Kendrick, the Demo
cratic candidate.
The results in Arizona, New Mexico
and Nevada are still in doubt. with
the Democratic candidates ahead in
Arizona and Nevada and the Republi-
can candidate slightly in the lead in
New Mexico.
The result in Montana will not be
known. in all likelihood, until the final
returns are in. Senator Myers, Demo
crat, is slightly behind former Con-
gressman Pray, the Republican candi-
date, now. Thus far none of the noted
national leaders in the House has
been defeated.
Complete returns from a number of
states give the following results in
elections for members of the lower
