CONFIDENCE IN WILSON SHOWN IN
 EARLY RETURNS
House Control is Not Coded By Either Side-The Election of Smith to GovernOrship of New York Seems Sure.

Washington, Nov 5.-"Early re turns indicate a sweeping vote of con- fidence in the president" said Acting Chairman Homer s. Cummings of the Democratic National committee, upon his return to Washington tonight from Connecticut, where he went to. day to vote.
 This statement was issued after an examination of the mass of telegrams which had accumulated during the af ternoon, and is based upon the first official returns received here.
 A bulletin received at Democratic national headquarters here claiming that Senator Lewis had carried Chi cago by 8000O, was regarded by the Democratic leaders as indicating that he would carry the state if the Chi cago figures are correct.
 A telegram has been received at the White House stating that early indi- cations are that the Democrats have elected four of the five congressman in Connecticut, as we'll as Thomas J. Spellacy. governor. This information was relayed to Democratic headquar- ters and announced there. Chicago, Nov. 5.-Senator James Hamilton Lewis has carried Chicago and Cook county in what is regarded the greatest local victory in the his tory of the Democratic party.
 His estimated majority in Chicago is 6S,O00, and it is believed he has car ried Cook county by majority of 6O,00O
 Down state returns favor Medill Mccormick. Republican nominee. but early indications are that he will be unable to overcome Lewis heavy lead.
 Detroit, Mich, Nov. 5.-Returns from 5S precincts scattered through out the state gave: for United States senator, Newberry, Republican, 5,7ls; Ford, Democrat, 3.737
 New York, Nov. 5.-Elfred F. Smith has been elected governor by a plurality of at least 5O,O00 over his Republican opponent, Gov. Whitman. Returns from one-half of the polling places in New York City indicate that Smiths plurality in Greater New York will be not less than 240,000, which is much larger vote than had been anticipated by Smiths most en- thusastic supporters
