Auo COulluueO OemOCr0tlC control
OF the Senate is in doubt as a result
OF the gains made by the Republicans
In the East. where they won seats
held by Democrats in New York. New
Jersey. West Virginia and probably
Ohio. and also two in Indiana.
West of the Mississippi the Repub-
lcan candidate. John L. Kennedy, was
leading Senator Hitchcock in Nebras-
ka. while the Democratic candidate,
Will H. King, was leading Senator
Sutherland, Rep. in Utah.
The outcome of the senatorial con-
test in Delaware is still in doubt. The
Democratic candidate. J. o. Wolcott,
had slight advantage over Senator
du Pont. Republican. In Maryland,
Lewis. Democrat, and France, Repub-
lican, were running a neck-and-neck
race.
The majority of the House will be
small. Republican gains were made
in New York. Maryland, West vir-
ginia. Ohio, Indiana, Illinois. Tennes-
see. Oklahoma, Kansas and California.
In the first Oklahoma district, the
Republican candidate for Congress, T.
A. Chandler. defeated the Democrat,
Congressman Davenport.
In the third Tennessee district,
Congressman Moon, Democrat, chair
man of the house postoffice commit
tee and author of the new railway
mail pay law, was beaten by Jesse M.
Littleton, Republican.
The Republicans made big gains in
Indiana. In the fifth district the So
.cialists were claiming the election of
Eugene v. Debs, several times their
candidate for the presidency.
In Iowa, the present delegation was
reelected without exception.
In Wisconsin, former Congressman
Davidson, Republican, defeated Con-
gressman Reilly.
Minnesota has sent nine Republican
and one Democrat, Van Dyke, back to
Congress.
Senators Kern and Taggart, Demo
Gratis, have been beaten by Harry s.
New and James e. Watson in Indiana
Former Ambassador Herrick has
defeated Senator Pomerene in Ohio.
Senator Chiffon, Democrat, has been
beaten by Congressman Sutherland,
Republican, In West Virginia.
Senator James E. MARITIME, Demo
cratic, beaten in New Jersay by ]. S.
FreIinghuysen.
William F. McCombs. Democratic
candidate in New York, was beaten by
