 Republican casualties which broke with the first returns yesterday, defeating Gov ernor Miller and Senator Calder of New York, continued with somewhat lessened force today as returns dribbled in. They told of further republican losses in the senate and house, and governors and state legislatures, although the belated congressional results were somewhat more favorable to the republicans.
 Among the additional republican stall warts who went down to defeat definitely today on additional returns were Senator Kellogg of Minnesota, beaten by Dr. Hendrix Shipstead, farmer-laborite, and Senator Townsend of Michigan, the latter losing to former Governor Woodbridge N. Ferris the first democratic senator to be elected from Michigan in 70 years.
