COI.UMIIUS , O. , Nov. 7. With a plurality of
Ifl.OOO and two-thh-ds of both branches of
Iho legislature , McIClnloy has won the most
l.oclslvo victory recorded in Ohio since the
llvll war. It has been won on national
jjsucs. Although MoKlnlcy was running for
rc-elcetlon as governor , ho made state affairs
erondnry to protection and honest money In
| ; 11 his speeches , numbering 110.
It would not have been a surprise two
Iwceks ago , but after the action of congress
I'.horo seemed to have been such a reaction
l.hat the overwhelming vote Is a surprise.
Irho democrats did not allow the contest to
oy default , but made a most vigorous
ight with its working forces. Ex-Governor
IJampbcll canvassed the state for Lawrcm-o
Ir. Neal all last week , and the democratic
: was hopeful after congress
Ifoachod decisive action.
Governor McKinley w.as not surprised at
Itho result. He has oxpcctcd it all along and
Ifolt confident that the impressions of the
( changes of conditions would not bo overcome
| by the campaign efforts for reaction.
The weather was pleasant all over the
Istato , and there was a full vote of over 800-
1000. and McKlnloy has n majority ovur all.
with democratic , prohibition and populist
tickets opposed to him. This is the first
( majority over all any state candidate has
lhad since Foster's election , ' Just after Gar-
Lleld's death In 1831. The republicans are
lipprohonslvo of ono part of- their victory ,
ll'ho legislature elected today docs not select
In United States senator , and it is over two-
( thirds republican , the strongest since the
( war. With such h largo working majority
cy fear such legislation by city members
Ins may lead to defeat two years hence when
[ another legislature is to bo selected that
I will ohooso Senator Brico's successor.
Took McKlulfty liy Storm.
Before 0 o'clock the overflow from repub
lican headquarters rushed into the state
house and took Governor McICinloy by
etorm. He was siu'roundcd by Congressman
Boutolle , R. G. Howard , K. G. Hoar and
others in the canvass , state ofllclals and
leading republicans who had como in expec
tation of a memorable occasion. Mdtinlcy
would not talk on the result and said it
would not do to estimate the extent of thn
result until after midnight when the rural
precincts could bo compared , with those of
the towns and cities.
Franklin county , the homo of Thurman , In
which Columbus Is situated , has novcr been
carried by the republicans. Thn latter clalu
that n plurality of 1,500 has been reversed
for MclCinloy. Uepuullcans elect county
tickets In many localities where they have
never had local oniccn * .
At 0 o'clock Chairman Dick , at republican
headquarters , said that If the average gain
of ! ! 3 per cent kept up , McKinley would have
03,000 plurality , but that the rural districts
would not keep up to this average. Ho feels
confident McKinley's plurality will Uo moro
than double that of IbUl , and a gain of 40,000
over last year's vote.
Ilui no Kittlmiito to Make.
"Chairman Sownrd of the democratic
committee has no estimate , out chilms that
the rural vote will reduce present claims.
Ho does not claim anything on state or
legislative tickets , but says It is an "off
year , " and that the party In power has been
hold responsible- everything.

[ ' throughout Kentucky will not be available
I for several days , but so far us the reports
riiavo boon received it Is pretty certain that
[ the relative standing of the two political
parties has not changed. Senator William
' Lindsay was elected last winter over
ilovurnor Brown and Congressmen McCroary
and Stone. Lindsay then had CO per cent of
[ the democratic caucus votes. In the
I primaries fully 80 percent of the democratic
nominees for both house and semite were
I pledged to Lindsay and they nro all friendly
I to Senator Blackburn , who will stand for ro-
I election two years hence. The Kentucky
I legislature will bo democratic on joint ballot
( by about four to one. The only issues in
I this election wore factional , thu domli.ant
I faction of the democracy being the Cleveland
I party , as opposed to the wing which sup-
I ported Mr. Henry Watterson in his opposl-
I tlon to Cleveland's nomination. In this city ,

TOPBKA , Nov. 7. The Australian ballot
system was used today for the llrst tlmo , and
though there was some friction In localities
where the law was not fully understood , on
the whole the election p.issad oT smoothly.
The vote this year for various reasons Is not
nearly so largo as In 180J , when 3i3,3S3 votes
were trailed.
In the first place It Is an "oft year. " Then
It Is estimated that fully 23 per cent of the
voters In the wuitorn p.trt of thu state have
emigrated on account of the failure of crops ,
and. besides , there was n considerable
exodus from all sections to the
Cherokee Strip. Finally , many voters ,
through ignorance or timidity , would not
venture into thu booths under the now law.
By common consent the vote today will bo
compared with tnat or two years ago , .vneii
the same county olllcors were elected. The
vote of that year was as follows : Hcpubll-
nn 112,0)4 ! ; populist , 114,475 : democrat , 23-
815 ; total , 2Tfi44. ! ! The ronubllcans won 277
of the county ofllcos voted for , the populists
127 and the democrats 20.
KANSAS CITV , Noy. 7. In Wyandotte
county , the most populous county In the
state , the entire republican ticket , with the
exception of surveyor and register of deeds ,
is elected. Incomplete returns indicate that
the populists hold their own as compared
with the vote two years ago. Not more
than half the registered vote was polled ,
On account of n split In the party few dem
ocrats voted.
KANSAS CITV , Nov. 7 Franklin , Butler ,
Brawn , Osagu and Gray counties , Kan. ,
all carried by republicans.
Ucno and So'igwlck counties have gone re
publican. Sudgwiek , of which Wichita is
the county scat , was carried by the populists
last year.
IJeoubllcans will probably have a plurality
of all the votes cast In Kansas , They have
carried Miami , Harvey mid Montgomery
counties. The democrats carried Leaven-
worth county. "
I-.UVUENCE , Kan. , Nov. 7. The entire re
publican ticket was elected in Douglas
county bv majorities "ranging from 700 to
1,000.WICHITA
WICHITA , Nov. 7. The entire rounbllcan
ticket Is elected in Scogwlck county
by majorities ranging from 200 to 1,000.
It was opposed oy a fusion of demo
crats and populist. The Immense republi
can gains were unlocked for.
EMPOUIA , Kan. , Nov. 7. This cltygivcs
an average republican majority of of fiOO on
a light voto. This is a ronubllcan gain as
compared with the vote of last year , lie-
turns Indicate that this county has gene
republican by about 300 majority.
Toi'KKi , Nov. 7. The Capitol's dispatches
to 2 o'clock from all parts of Kansas show
republican gains everywhere. Osage
Crawford and Cherokee counties ,
holds of the people's party , go republican for
the first time since 1880. Twenty-seven
counties heard from are all republican , in
cluding the most populous counties of the
state , many of which vero populist last
year and the yerr before. It looks like a
clern sweep of the state for the republicans.

New YOHK , Nov. 7. Ono of the most pe
culiar campaigns in the history of the state
was closed at sundown this evening , and it
Is safe to say the dcmocratlo managers are
not moro surprised at the result than are
the republicans. The dominant Issue in all
portions of the state has been
ring rule , and the republicans in
Now York City , Brooklyn. Albany and Buf
falo have been greatly assisted by the
organized efforts of independent democrats.
Isaac II. Ma.vnard , the candidate on the
democratic ticket for judge of the court of
appeals , against whom Independent demo
crats have waged war most bitter and un
relenting , has been surprisingly and over
whelmingly defeated. In Now York
City Maynard ran 35,000 behind
his ticket , in Brooklyn over 18,000 and in
'Erie county several thousand. Almost with
out exception the returns from every part of
the state show ho was heavily scratched.
Even ten of "Boss" McKano's retainers at
Coney Island scratched him. The result at
this time seems to bo that ho has boon de
feated by a plurality close In the neighbor
hood of 103,000.
Practically returns complete from many
counties of the state und scattering returns
from the others Indicate the republicans
have elected their entire state ticket and
that they will have a good working majority
in the next legislature.
In Brooklyn the local campaign was fought
most bitterly. Mayor Boody , who was re-
nominated by the democrats , was opposed by
thu Young Men's Independent Democratic
club of Brooulyn most liorculy and
thu republican candidate , Charles
Schlorcn , was endorsed , with the result the
democratic majority of 20,000 atithclast
election has been overturned and a repub
lican mayor elected by about 15,000. William
J. Gayuor , the prominent democrat , who
for two years has led In the light against
Boss Mclaughlin and his ring , was nomi
nated by the republicans for supreme court
judge In the Second district and gets 20,000
majority.
The complete returns from Now York City
show the election of tha entire Tammany
tickut by majorities ranging between 07,000
and C.3,000 ,
The total citv vote for secretary of state
gives Meyer 147,250j Palmer , 70,877.

Piut.Apnu'iiu , Nov. 7. The election today
closed the quietest political campaign in the
state of Pennsylvania for many years. In a
few counties in the eastern part of the state
local issues have excited interest outside of
party contests , and lively struggles over the
committeu on pleas Judgshlp In a hall' dozen
"districts brought out an exceptionally largo
vote. This was particularly true in Lack-
nwann'i. Schuylkill , Bucks and the Carbon
mining districts. These are all mora or less
democratic sections , with the possible excep
tion of Lackiuviunm , which Is pretty evenly
divided politically , and Blair , whkh is
strongly republican. In the eastern part of
the state the greatest Interest centered
around the contest in Munroe county dis
trict , where a bitter light has been waged
by administration und uutl-admiuistratlon
democratic , factions ,
At midnight the following counties in
western Pennsylvania had been heiial from ,
with estimated results : Allegheny county ,
10,000 republican plurality ; Yenango county ,
(100 plurality : Lawrcnco ' county. 2,000 repub
lican plurality ; Cumbria , boo republican
plurality ; Blair county , 2,1)00 ) * republican
plurality.
Returns from Franklin county show a re-
public-ill gain of 300 : Noithumbcrland

county , republican gum O.UOO , compared with
18U1.

MmiM.r.iantOi Pa. , Nov. 7. In consequence
of the failure'of the standing commit too of
both the democratic and republican parties
In Tiogn county to certify the nominations
of thu candidates for ussoniatu judge , the
ticket Is mixed and occasions much annoy
ance and delay in counting thn votes. Hence
the reports are monger and it Is Impossible
to estimate results , but it Is safe to sa.V that
the entire republican county ticket is elected
and Fell and Jackson will have a plurality of
from 700 to 600.

This covers one-third of the state and in
dicates Jackson's plurality In the entire

The legislative vote will run ahead of the
state ticket , and will undoubtedly bo repub
lican In both branches by a good majority ,
though no figures can bo procured this

The indications are the prohibition vote
will bo about 12,000 , and the populist vote in

Dns MOINCS , Nov. 7. [ Special Telegram
toTunBEB.l Iho election returns so far
in this state show nothing ICES than a repub
lican landslide. Republican reports , how-
over , have been slow in coming in , It being
nearly 0 o'clock before enough to base any
predictions upon had been tabulated. There
has been a steady not rcpuollcau gain in the
first 100 precincts of nearly seven to a pre
cinct. This is compared with last year whn
Harrison carried the state by a plurality of
nearly 131,000. The precincts first heard
from wcro mainly in the largo cities , leaving1
the county precincts to bo heard from and
there the prohibition vote may prove to bo
largo and cut down the republican plurality
as now figured.
The total vote in the state will fall , It is
estimated , at least , 3,000 ana maybe 4,000
short of , last year , the majority of stay-at-
homes being democrats , who probably could
not consistently vote the republican ticket
and still did not want to vote their own.
The democrats have lost heavily to the
populists , which can be accounted for partly
by hard "times and principally to the recent
silver legislation. The prohibition parly
vote , unless the county districts ( generally
the last to bo heard from ) pile up , the total
will be small much smaller than antici
pated by prohibitionists and feared by re
publicans.
All the estimates are based upon the first
100 precincts heard from. The total number
of precincts in the state is 0,003 , so that the
100 comprise one-twentieth part of the state ,
and what is true of these will very likely
prove true of the wholu state , with nothing
moro than a small change at most.
The llrst 100 precincts just in and tabulated
at 10 o'clock.show as follows : Jackson ,
total , 14,777. The same products last year
gave Harrison 18,802. Boies' total vote , 10-
804. The same precincts last year gave
Cleveland 0,480 ; net republican gain , 503.
If kept up for the whole state it will make a
gain of 1,1,000 and Jackson will carry the
state by nearly 1)3,000. )

DBS MOIXES , Nov. 7. The election of Iowa
will go down as a republican landslide. The
gains have been steady all nlaht and average -
ago about six to the preotnct. Returns from
more than one-fourth of the .stuto are now
in and the ratio of Increase can hardly
bo materially changed. Returns as to pro
hibition and populist voters are scattering ;
not enough to babe good estimates on. Pro
hibitionists will probably not poll over 12- ,
000 and the populists 0,000 , showing only a
gain of 1,000.
Chairman Blylho of the republican com
mittee claims the election of the whole re
publican ticket by pluralities of 30,000. The
chairman of the democratic stuto committed
concedes the election to the republicans by
about 20,000.
In the legislative districts the republicans
have many gains and are now certain of
working majorities in both houses , assuring
a republican successor to United States Sen

The election of justice of the supreme

result In Douglas county. At n a. m. the
canvass of the vote on the head of the state
ticket in this county was so Incomplete tnat
but little concluston could bo reached from
the figures at hand. The returns
from over the state were also un
satisfactory , but few actual figures being
given. Estimates wcro made , however ,
on nearly every county In the state which
are believed to bo reliable , giving the vote of
the counties in round numbers. These esti
mates show that Harrison and Holcomb are
almost on an equal footing as regards the
number of votes received.

on the vote cast last year for auditor. Ton
per cent was deducted from the total vote ,
and then 10 percent was taken from both
the republican and democratic columns and
added to the populists. The result , It is be
lieved , is approximately correct.

that Harrison was elected by u small plu

George P. Ucmts will bo the mayor of
Omaha for two years moro.
This was the decision of the voters of
this city at the polls yesterday In ono of the
bitterest and yet quiotcst political lights
that has bcuu waged In Omaha for yoars.
'i'no campaign was a hotly contested ono
from the start. The mayor was opposed by
all of the franchlsed corporations , by the
political ringstcrs , hy disgruntled politicians
of his own party , and no methods or nicani
wcro neglected to encompass his defeat , but
the people were with him and ho was reelected -
elected by a majority that any man could ba
proud of.
Returns from nearly all of the voting dls

place and Dr. Mercer not runnintr fait

In the First and Second wards , the origin
of.many of the disturbing elomenUi In the
election , and the trystlng place of Hascall ,
Stuht , Bachelor and tholr suites , the voting
proceeded very quietly and slowly. In rare.
Instances wcro there any workers about the
polls and ntno place was there a crowd.
A tradition , .was .prevalent that Mr.
Stuht had been soon early In tbo morning at
his voting booth in the First ward and had
then disappeared with Messrs. Hascall and
Bachelor to do electioneering near Fort
Omaha , their action being explained on the
theory that they realized that tholr md f
effective work could bo done where ihof
wcro least known.
It was evident from the first that Hascall
was receiving a vote far below the estimate
that had been made by him and hit fiiends for
these wards , and the exertions of a commit'
tee appointed to oppose the movement fol
flascall with Bedford had sorno effect. Men
ccr was not hoard of and shouters for Bach

bitter , while for some reason Bedford wai
cut by democrats , who cast their ballots
and worked for Bemls. In the Ninth
ward Ellcr was also manifestly getting

at the various booths elicited the informa
tion that the bowhlskorcd county jttdga

Sheriff Bennett resorted to his tactics
early In the light and aroused the Indigna
tion of respectable citizens by attempting to
vote the Inmates of thu county jail.
On October 20 the old man was arrested
for being drunk and disorderly. The next
morning ho was conqctod ! and fJnod $20 and
the costs of prosecution , but as he was with
out funds with which to liquidate thu bill ,
ho was sent to the county jail to board out
the fmo , the sentence expiring yesterday.
Bright and early ycstordny morning the old
man was nt the election booth at the corner
of Nineteenth street and St. Mary's avenue ,
where ho claimed the right to vote , As hit
name was on the list of registered votora ,
ho was given n ticket , t which he voted ,
swallowing Dennett , Kllcr and all of the
members of the gang.
Since the .voto of Jimmy Colllgan was de
posited in the ballot box the fact has dc-
velopo'l that ho went straight from a cell In
the county jail to the election booth , where
ho deposited a ballot that wni marked In
accordance with the instructions of Theo
dora Bennett , the brother of the sheriff ,
While the voting of this pauper criminal is
bad enough , it is not a marker to the fraud
that was perpetrated to secure the registra
tion of his name.
By the most liberal method of figuring
dates the old man's sentence did notoxpir *
until yesterday , but notwithstanding all of
this last Saturday be wua allowed to leave the
jail , alone and without a guard. Ho went
from there to the booth , where ho svrora
that ho was a resident of the precinct and
waul , having his name registered along-with
those of the respectable voters. After bo
had placed himself In line where he could
help Bennett he returned to the jail and
the farce of serving out a sentence was con
tinued.
When Old Jimmy showed up at the poll * yet-
turday morning there vtore two or three other
Jail birds wltn him , but th y could
