LONERGAN ALONE
PULLED THROUGH
-Four Other Connecticut Congress-
men Are Republicans

Connecticut returned four republi-
can congressm in yesterdays cleo
ton, Augustine Lonergan, who was
elected in the First District four years
ago, being the only democrat to win.
Mr.. Lonergan defeated Congressman
P. Davis Oakley Of Hartford, despite
the fact that New Britain gave
Oakley a lead Of nearly 500. Two
years ago this city was credited with
electing Oakley and conversely today
is credited with defeating him.
Oakey's defeat is thought to be due
to a great extent to his vote on the
Adamson eight hour law, which he
opposed. In 1912 Oakley carried the
district by 1885,
While the other four republican
pluralities. Congressman Ebenezer
J. Hill Of Norwalk was elected over
former Congressman Jeremiah Dono-
van by a plurality of 1920 as against
plurality Of 3,261 in 1914
In the Second District, Congress-
man Richard P Freeman defeated
Daniel P. Dunn of Willimantic by a
plurality of $3.50. In 1914, Free
mans plurality over Bryan F. Mahan
was 1885. The Third District re-
turned Congressman John @. Tilson
of New Haven, the latter defeating
ex-Congressman Thomas L. Reilly Of
Meriden by a plurality of 33S. In
1914 Tilson's plurality was 1852.
The Fifth District returned Con-
gresham James P. Glynn of Winsted,
who defeated ex-Congressman Will
liam Kennedy by plurality OF 973.

this out of the way the force turned to
the state and national returns, receiv-
ing both by telegraph and telephone
the Associated Press service, which
was perfected to q. degree never before
reached. State returns we're received
over the telephone, the Herald having
the benefit of an open wire all evening
for this purpose. ~.-
Both state and national returns
were bulletined and megaphoned to
the crowd as fast as received. Aside
from this service both Herald tele-
phones were busy throughout the
evening answering private inquiries as
to the progress of the election. After
o'clock the tide seemed to turn
towards Hughes and nearly every
message that came in after that hour
strengthened the belief that he was
winning, but it was Wilson crowd
that stood in Church street as at
tested by the volume Of cheering when
q bulletin favorable to the demo-
cratic candidate was flash ~

Of United States senator Mclean at

isfed with the result. II happen to

G. 0. p. GAINS IN NEW YORK.

New York, Nov. 8.--With seventy
six congressional districts to be
cleared up republicans now have
gained nineteen seats over their quota
in the present house while the demo-
Gratis have gained ten, a net gain of
nine for the republicans, which re-
duces the present democratic major
ity Of 23 to 5. Two democratic dis
tricts in New Jersey now reported
doubtful, would, if reversed, reduce
the majority to one.

Hughes carried the state by 4O,0oO

landslide for Wilson and there was no
10Y in the G. O. P camp until the
New York Times conceded Hughes
election at 7:45. The great demo-
cratic showing in this city is at
tributed to the hugh Wilson fullowing
that was gained among the progress
sives and Independent voters and to
a large extent to the splendid battle
rut up by George M. Landers against
Senator George w. K1ett. Republi-
cans freely predicted Monday that
Klett would win by 500 to 1000, but
when the returns came in Klett was
found to be victor by a scane 345.
Mr.. Landers ran ahead of his ticket
in every ward in the city and his own
ward, the sixth, give him total of
$50 against $50 for his opponent.
Edward F. Hall and Richard
Covert, republicans, were elected rep
resentatives over their democratic
opponents, E. o. Kilbourne and
Oscar F. Kraus, by over 500. Per-
sonal popularity was shown by the
fact that both Hall and Covert ran
ahead of the national ticket. E. O..
KiJbourne received 3,219 votes and Of
this number his own ward, the sixth,
save him an even 1000, more than any

the democratic camp. Oakley carried

Herald's Fine Service.
AS has been customary for more
than Is years, the Herald gave COM
plete returns from the city, state and
country, furnishing information by
bulletin and megaphone as fast as it
could be gathered and assem- bled.
| Church street was crowded for a.
| hundred yards on either side of the
| Herald office from early in the even
ing until 1890 o'clock when the
national issue appeared to have been
definitely settled in favor of Hughes.
! 1t was then decided to close the wire
and say good night" rather than hold
] the crowd for inconclusive details.
The Herald was especially equipped
last night to get the best and earliest
returns. Naturally the city election
came first and the Herald had a man
in every ward with the result that the
complete vote was received, tabulated
and ready for the bulletin in half an
| hour. A Herald extra was also issued
| giving the city vote In detail. WIZ

Bandit Has 1000 Men Under
His Banner.

Ell Paso, Texas, Jan. 25.-Arr1vals
from Madero, Chihuahua reported
that General Francisco Villa was at
Santa Anna, on the Babricora ranch,
the Hearst property, near MADEIRA, pre-
pairing for an extensive campaign.
It was said that he had assembled
1000 men, had taken 500 colts from
the Babricora ranch for mounts, and
was killing ESQ head of cattle daily
and drying the flesh for provisions.
Mexican officials sand that represen
tations were about to be made by Gen
eral Gavira, commandant at Juarez, to
General Pershing, commanding United
States troops at Fort Bliss, regarding
the shooting Of a Mexican soldier by
Harrison, a private of the Ell Paso pro
vost guard, last week.
According to the report OF the pro.
vost marshal, two Mexican soldiers
crossed the railroad bridge, carrying
carbines, looking for horses that had
strayed from the Mexican side. Har'
rison, it was said, ordered them back,
and they refused to go. Harrison, Ii
was reported, fired three shots from
his revolver, one bullet, according to
Mexican officials, penetrating the
lungs of one of the Mexicans.

wanted to know if it were possible
for a marauder to steal their hydro
aeroplanes and use them to reconnci-
ter the powder plants.
The banker told the secret service
men that his machine had been dis
mantled since November and that 1t
would have been impossible for any
body to have used the machine in a
fight. Similar information was given
to the United States detectives by Mr..
Thomson, whose hydroaeroplane has
been out of commission since the be-
ginning of the war.
To these men the detectives told OF
the mystery and started the inquiry
The aviators refused to repeat what
had been told to them, but from
other sources it was learned that the
secret service men have been acting
on stories that have been given to
them by residents of Pennsgrove and
