The republicans have carried Indiana by a majority ranging between 15.000 and 20,000. Chairman Martin of the democratic state committee, figuring tonight upon official and estimated returns from all but three of the ninety-two counties. conceded a republican plurality of 14. 500. He says, upon the returns at hand, that the democrats have made a net gain over the presidential vote of 1S96 of 1.S62. Later and authentic returns. however, may change the present Indi cated result from 2.000 to 3.000. The re publicans claim the state by 20.000. Washington Returns. Seattle, Wash. Returns from the state of Washington are yet incomplete, but enough are at hand to make it cer tain that the republicans have over come the fusion majority of 12.000 two years ago. electing both congressmen and two supreme court justices by a majority of at least 3.000. Later re turns will. It is thought. Increase rather than diminish this estimate. North Dakota Pluralities. Fargo. N. D.. Nov. 15. Practically complete returns from all but three small counties show the entire repub lican state ticket was elected, with ma jorities between 7.200 and 7.500. except Halland. superintendent of instruction, who has between 1.900 and 2.100 to spare. Spalding for congress and Young for supreme court lead the ticket. Fal- cher for governor runs V-hind his ticket from 1.200 to 1.500, mainly cn the account of the disaffection In Giand Forks county. AND SENATORS The states which chose legislature last Tuesday will choose United States Mr. Wanamaker says that though Quay's candidate for governor was elected, he received a minority of the votes cast for the office, and, "what is more significant." he continues, "is that at least 155 of the 254 members of (.he next legislature are pledged to vote against Senator Quay." Alter styling Quay s manifesto as "The exultant yell of a political boss, Mr. Wanamaker notifies the senator that the contest against his domlna tion is not ended, and reiterates his purpose of carrying on the contest until Quay's "rule and his methods are ex terminated from the politics of the state." Sweep North Carolina. Raleigh. N. C It looked today like the democrats had made a clean sweep of congressmen. They have certainly carried the First. Third. Fourth. Fifth, Sixth. Seventh and Ninth. Fountain, populist, indorsed by the democrats, has 1.300 majority in the Second, with two counties to hear from. His election Is conceded by some republicans. In the Eighth district, Llnney, republican, is probably elected by a small majority, Pennsylvania's Vote. Philadelphia, Pa. The complete vote of the state, with four counties miss ing, gives Stone, rep., 455.782; Jenks. dem., 333.783; Swallow, prohibition and honest government, 124,437; a plurality for Stone of 122.028, which will be in creased to above 125,000 by the com plete returns. The total vote In the state will approximate 950.000. Utah Is Democratic. Salt Lake, Utah Enough returns are at hand to Indicate beyond doubt that Baskin, dem., for supreme court judge, has been elected over Zane, rep. From the best estimate on latest re turns, the legislature will stand forty. one democrats, eighteen republicans and four fusion. Montana Democratic. Helena, Mont. Campbell, dem., is elected to congress by a plurality ex ceeding 4,000. The legislature is demo cratic by a decided majority. Complete returns will not alter materially the sit uation as stated. Ohio's Plurality. Columbus, O. Unofficial returns from all but one county tonight make the plurality of Kinney, rep., for secretary of state, 59.000. BOILED DOWN.
