gressional committee , figures the republican
representation In the next hauso will bo at
least > C9 members. The change from this
afternoon's tlntcr.ent , when , 2G3 were claimed

Illinois and three from North Carolina. The
dispatches received tonight that caused the
greatest surprise was one stating that Repre
sentative McMillan of Tennessee was possibly
defeated. It came from the chairman of the
republican state committee of Tennessee , and
added that the district's returns were not all
In. Mr , Babcock also says tonight that from
present Indications the republicans will have

Third and Sixth districts doubtful. Sixty
counties heard from. Wo have sixty-five
members , democrats , twenty-three. This
gives us control of the house , If we can hold
thorn and the democrats concede us die

John L. Wilson , Spokane , Wash. , also tele
graphed : "Have elected the two members of
congress and have about thirty majority In
the legislature. Congratulations on the great
victory. "

! \ cock of the republican congressional commit
tee received a letter this morning' from A.
E. Holton , chairman of the republican state
committed of North Carolina , claiming that
the republicans have carried that state. The
following contains extracts from the letter :
"GREENSBOROUGH , N. C. . Nov. 7. Hon.
J. W. Babcock : Dear Sir Wo won a com
plete victory at the polls hero yesterday.
We have elected the Judicial ticket by an
* " estimated majority of over 40,000 , and have
-
v- both branches of the legislature , with four
republican and three populist congressmen.
A fight will have to bo made tomorrow before
the county canvassing boards. These
boards have Judicial power with
the right -Investigate the legal
ity of every vote and pass upon the
regularity of the precinct returns. It will
ba necessary for us to employ counsel of repute -
puto and ability to appear before these can
vassing boards In many of the counties of
the state. We will be obliged to employ
democrat lawyers at good figures. The dem
ocrats say they have given up the state , but
our best Information Is that they will appear
before the boards tomorrow prepared to do
all In their power. "
Chairman Babcock has already Instructed
i Mr. Holton to employ all the counsel neces
sary to protect the republican rights In the
state.

NEW YORK , Nov. 8. The multiplicity of
bnllotn given to voters In the election booths
lias caused much confusion and Is delaying
the ofilclal count. In one Long Island City
district the county clerk reports the returns
arc badly mixed up , The vote for school
trustees was given to the candidates for city
treasurer and the city treasurer's vote was
given to the candidates tor school trustees.
Herman Drier , a candidate for school trus
tee , received ninety-eight votes for city treas
urer. Thomas Boyle , another candidate for
school trustee , received fifty-three for city
treasurer , and Felix Hughes , another can

NASHVILLE , Nov. 0. 12:30 : a. m. The
gubernatorial muddle In this state seems no
nearer a settlement. Both the democratic anil
republican state committee claim the gov
ernor. The returns come In slowly and It
scsms at this hour more certain than before
that the ofilclal count In each county will be
required to decide whether Turney or Evana
U elected. Chairman Carrel of the 'lenv > -

ST. LOUIS , Nov. S. The surprising result
of the Missouri election Is becoming clearer ,
and the extent ot republican success appears
to be already well defined. There Is today
every Indication that the republican state
ticket was successful. The republicans In
comparison with two years ago had a plural
ity of 29.C61 to overcome. Fifty-seven coun-
ties out of 114 show a net republican gain
of 18,729. The same ratio for the remain
ing 57 would elect W. M. Robinson supreme
Judge , J. It. Kirk superintendent of schools ,
and Joseph Flory railroad commissioner , by
not less than 0,000 plurality. In the state
house of representatives- republicans
have made gains enough to give them a ma
jority of the legislature on Joint ballot , but
the senate of Itself , by holdover members ,
will remain democratic.
In the congressional district It Is now
fairly established that the First ( Hatch's ) ,
Fourth ( Allison's ) , Sixth ( De Armond's ) ,
Seventh ( Hcard's ) , Ninth ( Champ Clark's ) ,
Thirteenth ( Fox's ) , Fourteenth ( Arnold's ) ,
and Fifteenth ( Morgan's ) have been carried
by the republicans. The Eighth ( Bland's )
Is still In doubt OB also the Third ( Dockery's ) .
The Tenth and Eleventh St. Louis districts
are also republican. The only sure demo
cratic districts are the Second , Fifth and
Twelfth.
From further returns this forenoon the
slate democratic committee concedes the
election of a republican legislature. It also
corcedes the defeat , prlma facie , of R. P.
Bland ( Silver Dick ) , for congress in the
Eighth district by a plurality of nineteen
votes. Complete returns , however , show the
re-election of Dockery In the Third by 300.
KANSAS CITY , Nov. 8. A special to the
Star from St. Louis says : Returns from sev
enty counties out of 115 Indicate the positive
election of the entire republican state ticket ,
nearly 100 members of the house of repre
sentatives , enough membrs o'f the senate to
make that body a tie politically , and probably
eleven out of fifteen congressmen , with con
tests certain In the Fifth , where there were
the greatest of democratic frauds , and the
Third. If the present percentage of repub
lican gain Is maintained to the close of the
returns. Black Is defeated for supreme judge
by 10,000 by Robinson , the republican candi
date. Jco Flory will defeat Finks by 12,000
and Kirk of Kansas City will bo the first re
publican for twenty years to have charge of
Missouri schools.
The fight In the Sixth congressional district
Is so close that the official count only can
decide the content.
In the congressional fight Dockery of the
Third , Tarsney of the Fifth and Cobb of the
Twelfth are the only democrats that have
been elected on the face of the reurna.
Hatch , In the First district , Is clearly beaten
by Clark. Hall , In the Second , for whom
there were strong hopas until now , has surely
gone down. Ellison In the Fourth and Heard
In the Seventh are burled. In the Eighth ,
"Silver Dick" Bland's rural constituency has
glvon the go-by to him In favor of Joel
Hubbard. In the Ninth Champ Clark has
been defeated by fieloar of Audraln , jj
school teacher with protection tendencies.
Bartholdt In the Tenth , Joy In the Eleventh
and Ranney In the Thirteenth swell the re
publican column. The "swamp angel" dis
trict ot the southeast , the Fourteenth , where
only democrats were supposed to live , has
retired Marsh Arnold In favor of Mosoly ,
the republican candidate. For the first time
In twenty-five years the southeast has failed to
come up rock-ribbed for the democratic
ticket. The anti-free sITvor-lead ore men
of the Tenth district left Morgan at home
by l.COO In favor of Judge Barton.
Counties which have never gone re
publican since the ex-confederates >
wcro restored ta citizenship have elected the
entire republican ticket. Analysis of the
vote OH shown by returns received at demo 10j
cratic headquarters shows that no portion jf
the state has been exempt from the shaking
up. It is Just as bad down along the Ar
kansas line as it Is up on the Iowa border.
The Mississippi river counties are as badly
"slumped" as the tier which borders , on Kan
sas. Two years ago the democrats had nine
ty-two members In the house and the re
publicans forty-eight. This time the demo
crats anil populist ! > combined will not be atlo
to muster mere than a strong minority.
JEFFERSON CITV , Mo. , Nov. 8. Gov
ernor Stone was In a more communicative
humor today and says that the loss of the
state to the democracy Is due to the "stay-
at-homo" element. Ho Is very pronounced
In his demands for a western man for presi
dent In 1890 , and suggested that his thought
Is to so liberalize and broaden the demo
cratic platform of that year as to secure 0P 0n
consolidation o'f all the political elements op
posed to the republican party. He concedes
the defeat of the stale ticket and the election
of a republican majority In the lower house
of the legislature.

DENVER , Nov. 8. Mclntyre's plurality for
govenor Is estimated at 19,000 on the basis
of the returns so far received from all over
the state. In Arapahoe county his majority
over Walte Is 15.19D , with seven precincts
missing. Walte ran 2,000 votes behind his
ticket. Tne populists claim the legislature
will be a tie on joint ballot , but the repub
licans figure on a majority of 19.
DENVER , Nov. 8. In splto of the positive
announcement from Pueblo that Thomas M.K
Uowen , republican , Is elected congressman ,
the result In the Second district still seams
to bo In doubt. Returns , official and esti
mated , received here from every county In
the district give Dell , populist , 2,207 majority
over Ilowen ,
The republicans apparently have n majority
of sixteen on Joint ballot In the legislature.
The senate will consist of sixteen republlcanb
and nineteen democrats and populists , In
the house the republicans will have forty-two
members and the opposition twenty-three.
Governor Walto has written the following
letter to H. Q , Clark , chair
man of the populist state cen
tral committee : "I am Informed that you
foal badly over the result. Of course a great
deal of fault Is found. Now , everybody
knew that 'tho old cow would eat up the
grindstone. ' It would bo singular , Indeed , If
there had been no fault In the management ,
but I am persuaded that nothing that was
done or left undone by the state central
committee or by any of the candidates could
have changed the result. We may as well
accept our defeat philosophically. We have
lost this fight , but our cause Is just and
therefore Immortal.
"In an especial manner I wish" to Impress
upon you my entire confidence In your Integ
rity. The stars and their courses have
fought against us , but 'freedom's battle be
queathed from sire to son , though often lost ,
Js ever won. ' "

CHEYENNE , Wyo. , Nov. S , ( Special Tele
gram. ) Partial returns have been received
from Johnson , the only county In Wyoming
that gave a plurality for the democratic
state ticket , and In this county the repub
licans elected over one-half of the county
officers and one member of the legislature.
The average democratic plurality Is about
100 , with the exception ot congressman.
Mondell , the republican candidate , carried
the county by a small plurality.
The complexion of the next Wyoming leg
islature is as follows : House , thirty-three re
publicans , twenty-one populists , three demo
crats ; senate , fifteen republicans , three dem
ocrats. As the returns from the outlying
precincts come In the plurality for the re
publican ticket keeps Increasing. Frank W.
Mondell's plurality for congressman will not
fall much under 3.GOO , and that of William
A. Richards for governor and the remainder
of the state ticket about the same. M. B.
Campten , republican , Is elected Judge of the
Fourth judicial district , comprising Johnson ,
Sheridan , Crook and Weston counties , by
over 1,000 plurality over W. S. Mctz , demo-

ABILENE , Tex. , Nov. 8. Texas , too , was
caught In the slide of republican victory , but
by populists Instead of republicans. The
time-worn plurality of 180,000 for democracy
Is a thing of the past. Today's returns very
materially change the situation from that of
yesterday , when the democrats were con
fident of a plurality of 80,000 , while tonight
they will be satisfied If barely ahead. Every
return throughout the state today shows
phenomenal populist gains , and may possibly
Indicate the election of Nugent , the populist
nominee for governor. The state tonight Is
claimed by both parties. The populists
claim a plurality of 80,000 for Nugent , whllo
the democrats only claim the state for Cul
btrrson by 30,000. The democratic strongholds
have been heard from , while the populists
are yet to receive returns from the country
districts.

The Ie ! has received official returns on

from the other eleven , which show Hoi-
comb's election by about 2,600. The returns
printed In The Bee. of yesterday were verified
by telegraph after the official count In many
of the counties , and while some changes
wore made In the actual figures , there was
but little variation In the totals. Enough
figures have been received from the missing
counties to make a close estimate of the
pluralities given Holcomb , and as these
have been made conservatively , It is proba

for the fusion candidate. The actual plu

Tlio treasonable conspiracy to count out
Judge Holcoinb by doctoring the official returns -
turns and by tampering with tlio ballot !
has taken practical shape.
Several conferences were held yesterday
at liurllngton headquarters anil at tlio
Mlllard hotel , having lit view n pretended
contojf , which In reality contemplates the
counting out of the governor-elect. In the
early part of the day J. W. Deweeso , the
political attorney of the liurllngton , who
came up from Lincoln In the morning , was
closeted with Czar lloldrege and then re
turned post haste to Lincoln , from which
point operations ere to bo directed. H. J.
Davis of Omaha , a member of the kitchen
cabinet of the czar , was also taken Into con
sultation. During the day Holdregc inado
at least two calls at the Mlllard head
quarters of the state committee. According
to re ) table Inside reports several of the mem
bers of the executive committee expressed
themselves adverse to the plot , but Czar
Holdrcgo was Inexorable , and it was given
out cold last evening that the contest must
proceed , como what may.
CORRUPTIONISTS SENT OUT.
The old gang of oil room boodle men wcro
at onro called Into requisition for the desper
ate criminal work , and a dozen arc to > bo
dispatched on the early morning trains over
the various roads to the various seats whora
It is thought reasonably safe to manipulate
the county clerks and boards of canvassers
with a view of doctoring the figures so as to
inako a prlina facie case on the face of tha
return ? as transmitted to the secretary ot
state. In case of failure to consummate
this' villainous-work It Is'.proposcd , to have
a contest trumped up under pretense that
the count In certain precincts of various
counties was Incorrect and would , If revised ,
wipe out Holcomb's majority. This process
would bo somewhat tedious and opportunities
would be given to the sleek workers In collusion
.
lusion with county clerks or their deputies
to substitute fraudulent ballots.
It Is an open secret that the chief pro
prietor of the alleged organ of democracy
published In this city has long been conniving
with the railroad gang to defeat Holcomb.
Ills cloven foot was shown long before the
campaign and many times during the con
test , and by the double column bargain to
knlfo Holcomb , for which the Majors cam
paigners contracted with him. On the
night of the election Hitchcock
publicly congratulated the Majors jamboree
gang upon the triumph of the tattooed can
didate. It Is also known that Hitchcock
personally has taken charge of compiling the
state election returns , excluding Bryan and
other members of the staff who have always
been In charge of the news department. That
alone explains the bogus election bulletins
and fictitious claims for Majors sent out to
the eastern press from the World-Herald
office. Night before last , for Instance , the
World-Herald wired to the United press that
Majors had carried the state by 2,000 plural
ity , when the returns In their own offlco
showed at least 2GOO for Holcomb.
CLAIM THE WORLD-HERALD.
It Is openly boasted at the Mlllard hotel
railroad headquarters that the World-Herald
has been enrolled on the side of the corporals
combination. This report was fully confirmed
last night when It became known that the
Majors managers had sent out telegrams to
commltteetnen and railroad organs that the
returns show that Majors has 911 plurality ,
although the official returns and the most
moderate estimates from the counties from
which returns have not bean received , give
Holcomb fully 2,000 plurality.
On the heels o'f this announcement It waa
given out last night that the World-Herald
would fall In line with any statement , claimer
or scheme that would emanate from tha
ntrlkors and heelers of the Uurllngton to
back up the conspiracy to count Holcomb
out. It remains now to bo seen whether the
people of Nebraska will tuko any stock In
these- fraudulent election returns or whether
they will countenance any attempt to defraud
the people of their choice of governor.
GIVEN POINTERS KRO.M HOLDIIEOB.
In confirmation of the fact that this plot
to count Judge Holcomb out Is not a fig
ment of the Imagination , It may bo stated
that Captain Palmer , who has a number of
bets on Majors pending , told Frank Moorea
In front of the New York Life building to
"wait till you hear from Holdrogu before you
give up on Majors. " To Slovo Crow , who
has ono bet with Palmc-r himself , he uald ho
mutt wait till the 1st of January bcforo ho
would give up. That was a sufllclcntly largo
straw that the plot to count out Judge Hol
comb Is no I u myth.
The nee Is determined t.i cxpove every man
connected with this Infamous plot , and with *
In forty-eight hours will print tbe names ot
tiio bribe dispensers whu have taken the con
tract to tamper with the returns and ballot
boxes.
