SHicaSO, sept. lf.-W1tn 691 out OF
the 5,737 precincts in the state miss
ing. of which 279 were in Chicago,
Len Small. Of Kankakees support
ed by Mayor Thompson, of Chicago
for the gubernatorial nomination, ap-
peared to have been the victor over
Lieut.. Governor John G. Oglesby,
Lowden candidate, by purality of
about 10000 in a total vote Of nearly
100000 votes cast in Wednesdays
primary. s5i
Small polled his heaviest vote in
Chicago, where he received the sup
port of the Thompson republicans,
while Og1esby's strength came from
the down state Lowden republicans.
Congressman w. B. Mckinley.
Lowden candidate for senator, ap-
peAred to have defeated Frank L.
Smith. supported by Mayor Thomp-
son. by plurality somewhat smaller
than that which decided the guber-
material contest.
Rectification of a clerical error in
the tabufation Of the Chicago vote
put Mckinley in the lead by about
1000 votes, further DOWNS state re-
ports adding to the gains. McKinley's
vote with 447 precincts outside Cook
county to report was 321 1884.
Smith had 317,335, with 279 pre-
cincts missing in Chicago.
The official canvass, to be held
next Tuesday, probably will be nec-
essary to determine the democratic
senatorial winner as, with compila-
ton Of unofficial returns, Robert e.
Burke and Peter Waller continued to,
run neck and neck. With ISIS pre-
cincts in the state tabulated, Of
which 2,13O were in Cook county, the
vote was: Burke, 4S,S20; Waller,
1892.

Most congressman Renominated.
William e. Mason and former Gov

nominated for congressman at large
and all of the republican congress
men who were candidates for renom-
ination, excepting Congressman Niels
JUL, were renQminated Wednesday.
The democrats nominated former
Congressman William M. Baltz, of.
st. Clair county, land c. S. Schnei-
der, of Ford county, for congress
men at large, and all of the sitting
democrats were winners for fresh
nominations except Congressman
Thomas Gallagher, of the west side
district. Stanley H. Kunz, former
alderman, defeated Mr.. Gallagher.
M. A. Michaelson, former alder
man and leader of the city hall
forces in the council, was the win
ner over Congressman JUL.
Desperate efforts were made by
the Thompson -Lundin machine to
defeat Congressman Wilson in the
Englewood district and Congressman
Chindblom in the Lake View dis
trict, and for many hours Wednes-
day night the figures indicated that
such efforts had been successful. In
each case, however, the figures from
the country towns in the districts
saved the bacon of the two Con-
gressmen. Wilson now has a lead Of
1,10O with thirty seven precincts
missing, and Chindblom leads Edgar
J. Cook, the Tammany entry in the
Tenth, by 2.100. with forty one pre-
cincts missing. Evanston gave
