Washington, eb. 5.-Tbe states

snow bound today as a result of the
worst snow storm of the winter. The
weather bureau announced the heavi-

snow was accompanied by sleet and
high wind.
Reports from Atlantic highlands
and other marine observation points

cies in the first two years at least of
his administration. Returns indicate
that the republicans will have in
creased majorities in both houses.
Early returns in the elections for
senators and representatives were
meager from a number of important
states, but the trend of voting in those
states in the presidential and guber-
Material contests indicated the prob
able result as far as the senate is
concerned. The two houses in the
next congress will probably stand as
follows:
Senate Republicans. SO; democrats,
43.
House-Republicans, 247; democrats,
1885; independents, 2; prohibitionist, 1.
This would give the republicans a
majority Of fifty-nine in the house.
The present republican majority in the
senate is two and in the house thirty
nine.

California, who supported Senator
Hiram Johnson's irreconcilable oppo-

BY maiorities apparently unprece-

G. Harding has been elected president
and Calvin Coolidge viee-president.
The addition of women to the cleo

crease in Harding's margin over James
NJ. Cox, the democratic candidate.
Roosevelt's margin of 100000 over
Parker in Pennsylvania in 1904 was
surpassed at least three times in this
election.

they went for Roosevelt in 1904. If
Maryland has gone for Harding, too,
