OMAHA, Nov, 3.-The World-Herald
■ays: Complete returns on the bead

ty-one counties, outside of Douglas,
r.4iri.ui>n11nir lllMl about onS-thlnl Of
tint vote of the state, gave Judge Sul
livan 36,918 and Judge Post 28,573. The
name counties Inst vear gave Porter
39,400 ami Piper 30,956. This makes
Judge Stillvan's lend over his competi
tor Just 106 votes less than Porter’s
load over Piper In the same thirty

These counties were: Iloone, Da

Pierce, Mutter, Greeley, Hitchcock,
Howard, Jefferson, Keya Paha, Knox,
Nam e, Otoe, Polk, Himmlers. Ituck,
Dundy. York, Colfax and Hamilton.
Taking Into consideration the usual
gain of the republicans In Douglas, the
completion of tbe count will probably
ace Knlllvan's majority but little If any
Iadov that of Secretary of State Por
ter a year n*ro. or very closely ap
proximating 14,000 .
The lice says: "Forty-six counties
In whlctj the count has b«0n completed
exclusive of Douglas and Lancaster,
give Sullivan a plurality of 6,300. The
changes since 1890 shown by the vote
are Alarlllng. The republicans of
Omaha and Dougins county are con
gratulating themselves on one of the
most decisive victories that hus ever
Itecn won by their party In this coun
ty, The entire county and city ticket
has been elected by tremendous ma
jorities. and even the precinct officers
have carried on the triumphant, wave
with one or two possible exceptions In

fully 10,090 votes ' over Fred Whit-,
democratic candidate. The same

last night to mako accurate figure*.
Judge Kline runs ahead of the dem
ocratic ticket, but. whether enough to
elect him or not cannot he told.
The vote was light throughout the
«r»jo Tim democrats gain four mem
bers of the senate and twenty mem
bers of the house, according to the
present returns. Chairman McMil

publican. 230.000; democrats. 290.000;
prohibithm. 7.U00; gold democrats,
6,009; populists. 3.000.
DEH MOINES. la.. Nov. 3.—The re

a plurality for Hlmw, republican, of

He thinks these figures will vary

ticket by larger pluralities than were
given Inst night In the earliest of
these dispatches as the claims of the
republicans.
Tonight the republican state com
mittee raised Its claims to a major.ty
of five on Joint ballot, as follows: <
Senate, seventeen republicans, nine
teen democrats; house, fifty-eight re
publicans, fifty-one democrats; total, i
seventy-five republicans, seventy dem
ocrats. Woods county had been con
ceded to the democrats until tonight,
when the complete returns caused the !
republicans to claim It.
On the returns complete at repub- i
llcan state headquarters the democrats
will have a majority of two in the sen
ate und the republicans of seven In
the house. In the claims the fuslonists
from Cincinnati are all counted as
democratic. The republicans can or- i
ganlze the house without fusion.
CINCINNATI. O., Nov. 1—The four
republicans elected on the fusion
ticket for the house In Hamilton coun- i
ty are Charles F. Droste, John C. Otis,
I)r .Ft. W. Dane and Frank H, Kemper.
The Tlmcs-Btar prints interviews
with all four, In which Kemper says
he will vote for the republican caucus
nominee; Otis will oppose Hanna, but
Is otherwise noncommittal; Dane Is a
free silver man anil will probably vote
with the democrats on local meas
ures. Is unpledged for senatorial can
didate; Droste Is free silver and says
he will vote for a senatorial candidate
who agrees with him. Volght, the fu

CODUMIIU8, 0.. Nov. 3.—At this
wiling both parties are now claiming
both the state offices and the legis
lature, the only reservation being the
state ticket on the part of the demo
crats. C’halrmanMcConrllle at 10 a.
j m. claimed the election of the deino

! Jorlly In the legislature.

vising his figures on both the state
| ticket and legislature. He said there
j was no longer any doubt about the
! republican state ticket, although the
plurality was much smaller for the re
publicans than had been cxpecled. Ho
said the legislature had a republican
majority of two on Joint ballot, as fol
lows: Hcnatc, 17 republicans, 16 ('en
ocrats, 8 doubtful. House, 67 repnbll
I cans, 60 democrats, and 2 doubtful.
There are 116 members of the gemral
assembly and tills would give the re
publicans a majority of two on Joint
ballot for United Slates senator.
The Dispatch, an Independent paper,
has specials today from all the close
counties and it makes the legislature
on Joint ballot stand seventy-three re
publicans to seventy-two democrats
and says there Is no doubt about this
result.
In the event of the republicans con
trolling the legislature It Is conceded
that Senator Marcus A. Hanna of
Cleveland will be returned to the sen
ate, In the event of the democrats
controlling the legislature It Is almost
equally certain that John ft. Mc
Lean will he senator. The residence of
the former In Cleveland und of the
latter In Cincinnati arc In constant
communication with tbelr respective
headquarters In this city.
The republicans claim Dushncll f r
governor, and the rest of the repub
lican ticket hus been elected by a
good N.ono plurality and that the re
publicans will have a majority of two
r.n Joint ballot of the legislature for
hcitatnr. The republicans concede that
they will not have a majority In the
state senate, which would prevent the
psrsage of what are known as "rip
per” or any other partisan legisla
tion. The republicans claim seven
teen of the thirty-six senators, with
eighteen conceded to the democrats
and one doubtful. They claim that
fifty-seven members of the hours arc
theirs, conceding forty-eight, to the 1
democrats, with four doubtful. If the |
democrats should secure all of thes t :
doubtful member* the republican t j
still claim a majority or two on Joint j
ballot,
Allen O. Meyer* of the democratic
state headquarters says: "Not one
of the fusion Cincinnati ticket will
vote for Hanna."
A republican says two of the r pub
lican representatives elected will n-1
vote for Hanna. He can be elected
without them If the republicans hav

lemocratic candidate for chief Judge

n Greater New York Is 133,058.
Vnn Wyrk, Tanmany candidate for ;

ty over Seth Low and 118.401 over

toldovers and the new house of assem- ;
dy stands 85 republicans to fi8 demo
•rats. Ten of the newly elected repub- j
lean assemblymen are said to be antl
*latt. In the present senate the repuh
lcan majority is 30; In the house, 78.
Chauncey M. Depew, who supported
[Vary, said today that the election re
mlted Just ns he feared It would. "Wo 1
nade the best possible fight, but the t
lope of victory against Tammany with c
he anti-Tammany forces divided Is t
ilmost futile. The wonderful showing e
nade by Mr. Low Is surprising, to say r
he least.
"Those who are Inclined to view this i
(lection In New York elty as being of 4
intlonul significance arc away off In I
.heir reckoning. New York Is a cos- #
mopolltan elty. The Inhabitants of
la)ndon are nearly all Kngllsh. the
people of Berlin are Germans solidly, j
he people of Paris are nearly all f
french. New York has only about 20 ,
jer ('(-lit of Americans—that Js, Amer- -
lean born people. The rest are from t
Europe and all parts of the */orld. And ,
they retain the habits, language and |
I'haracterlstlcs of their native coun- j
tries. ,
"The election Issue In New York
ins no nutlonul significance, but with
in alarming falling off of the repub
lican vote In the state, with heavy
Kf nuu nn/l p.tlios f
dates, the republican party Is con- ‘
fronted with the Incontrovertible
truth that Ilryanism and bimetallism

BALTIMORE. Nov. 3. -State 8 tutor J
Norman lb Scott, chairman of the re- f

afternoon made the following state
merit concerning the legislative ques- 1
ion:
"It docs not avail now," said he, "to .
lo any claiming that will not be sub- j
iliintlated by the returns. Wo have
ilxteen republican senators to nine '
lemoeratlc, end one doubtful, al- *
hough I am assured that both the re- !
publican senator and member of the 1
louse were elected there. Of the six- *
cen senators, nine were holdovers. We
have a majority of one In the house ‘
md either seven or nine on the Joint :
ml lot. This Is my claim, and It will
>e found that It will be substantiated. '
Ibis Is a little too close for comfort, ‘
nit a small working majority has some
benefits, for It always results In eem- 1
•ntlng the parly together for good leg- Jj
nlalive work.”

"To nit down Governor Wolcott's

I am sorry that our voters did not

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. t.— Mr. Bryan
ave the following statement to the I
LHS.odated Press:
The returns urn so Incomplete that
t Is Impossible to discuss the election
n detail. The republicans everywhere
adorned the republican adttilnlr, ta
lon arid in view of losses sustained by
hem In almost every state It would
r etn that republican policies are not
dug endorsed at the polls. The sen
Iment In favor of the Chicago plat
oon shows a healthy growth through
tit the country. Perhaps our op
onents will not admit that silvi-r s
ot dead. The attempt to secure In
nrnatlonal bimetallism has proved a
allure and It Is now more apparent
Imn ever that the people of the I'ni'
d Stales must legislate for them
elves on the (Itmnclal question. Free
nd unlimited coinage at 10 to 1 is
carer now than it was a year i g >.

d to It for relief. Taken ns a whole
he returns are very encouraging, I
hink 1 voice the sentiments of dam
crats, populists and silver republi
ans when I say that the fight will
v continued with even more earnest
est until the gold monopoly is brok
n and the money trust Is overturned,
'he fusion forces Increased their per

Pretenses—A deter swindler end a
Man Wltli an lutereeling History.
Henry I'ndur Arrrit.
Henry, the bank swindler, had hi*
preliminary bearing this morning be
fore the county court, says a York dis
patch to the Omaha Bee. He waived
examination and was hound over to
the next term of district court. His
bond was fixed at $1,000. In the
charge* filed against him there are
three counts, alleging him to he guilty
of forgery, uttering forged paper and
attempting to obtain money under
false pretenses.
Henry has an Interesting history.
HI* clever swindle at York, where he
obtained $400 on a forged draft from
the First National bank, was but one
of many operations of the same char
acter which he ha* carried on In dif
ferent parts of the country. His oip
ture rids the bankers of the United
States of the last of the systematic
swindlers and forgers that have been
operating In the past decade upon
banking Institutions. The National
Bankers’ association, under whose di
rection the matter was put Into the
bands of the Pinkerton’s, feel* elated
over his capture. The officials of the
York bank have been very aggressive
In pushing the matter. They, In con
nection with the bankers' association
and the detectives, have spared no
pains or expense.
On last Saturday Assistant Superin
tendent Brel of the Pinkerton agency,
who had been detailed for this case,
wired the York hank that the man
had been traced to Hampton, 111,, a
steal town ten miles north of Rock
Island, where he was living with a
family. President Post, who was at
the time on a fishing trip to the fyiup
river, hurried to Rook Island to meet
the detective. Henry wan away from l
home, and It was not. until Thursday
that he was apreliended at Rock Island
on his way hack to Hampton. He at
first denied all connection with the
York affair, but upon being shown tbe
evidence against him be confessed his
Identity und guilt and agreed to ac
company the officer to York without ft
requisition. He exonerates K. It.
Clark, the man who Introduced him
to the cashier of the hank, from com
plicity In the scheme.
It has been learned that Henry has
operated In the last two years under
assumed names upon banks In Den
ver, Han‘Antonio. Tex., Atlantic. Ia„
Aberdeen. H. I)., and also In Burling
ton, la. His game In general was the
same as he worked here, the deposit
ing of a forged draft and the with
drawal in a day or two of part of the
deposit. Henry Is a good talker and
of meek, inoffensive demeanor. He was
dark hair and eyes, and when In York
last March was smooth shaven. He
now wears a moustache. The forger
has apepared under the names of P.
A. Sullivan, K. A. Collins, Charles A.
Adams and W. H. Sweeney and others.
In 1880 Henry was arrested for for
gery In his home county and receive*
a sentence of three years In the peni
tentiary. He ate soap to look ema
ciated and got a pardon In the course
of six months on the grounds that he
was dying of consumption. Eight years
ago he was again arrfMt"d and taken
to Ohio on the same charge. He suc
ceeded In making a settlement In th's
rase, but while In custody at Cnlum
litis his photograph was secured, which
lias aided materially In the last, cap
ture.
Henry is n man of high social rank
In Hampton. He has lived there all his
life. Is active In the affairs of the town
mrt county, occupying the offices of
lustlce of the peace, town clerk and
having recently received and declined
the appointment of postmaster. He is
also a prominent candidate for a posi
tion In the state insane asylum near
Hampton.

C'udahiij Tacking Company Awarded
First Prize at Kaihfllk.
Nashville American: "The Cudahy
racking company o' South Omaha has
again scored a triumph, the jury of
awards of the Tennessee centennial
having given them the large gold med
al as a testimonial of the superiority
and general excellence of their prod
ucts. It Is doubtful if any exposition
ever held has had a more competent or
experienced Jury of awards than the
Tennessee centennial exposition, and
certainly they were experts In the mat
ter of Judging the worth of goods such
as were exhibited In the contest, for
among the six Judges were Prof. F. W.
Clark, at present connected with the
United States Geological survey, and
for ten years professor of chemistry
In the University of Cincinnati, and
Charles Richards Dodge, special agent
of the United States Department of ag
riculture, who was a member of the
Jury of awnrds at the Paris exposition,
where he represented the United States
government and also a Judge at the
Chicago and Atlanta expositions. The
nwnrdlng of the gold medal by such ex
perts as these Is worthy of comment.
Although the youngest of the larg
er packing companies, the Cudahys
have become the largest paekers In re
spect to the number of products packed
and third In the amount of their out- 4
put. At the present time they are
placing more goods with southern w
trade than ever, and their exports for
tills year are more than double those of
last year, which gives to the causal
reader an Idea of the rapidity of their
present growth.
"In the contest which found Its close
in yesterday’s decision of the Judges,
the Cudahy Packing company received
the gold medal for their superior
packing house products, together with
hums, ltex lord, breakfast bacon, Rex
canned meats, Rex beef extract and
their Diamond "C" soap, which Is fast
achieving a world-wide reputation. For
each and every single exhibit and for
the exhibit collectively this eompany
drew forth the praises of the jury of
awards and secured their unanimous
ami hearty endorsement.

* hipnrr Factory ‘•fart*.
The American Chicory company hats
started its plant at Fremont. During
the summer some improvements have
been made In the machinery and every
thing placed In good shape. The to
tal amount of chicory beets dried at
Fremont this year will be considerably
less than last season, the management
estimating It at only 5,000 tons. The
yield per acre Is smaller than last yeir,
which was an exceptionally favorable
season for raising chicory, but will be
large enough to make the crop a profit
able one to the farmer. The company
has recently shipped a large quantity
of the dry root to Omaha to be pre
pared for the market. The demand fur
chicory is Improving and many new
customers are being added to the com
pany’s list. As it is not practicable for
the factory to shut down during the
season, two full crews are employed of
about fifteen men each. The factory
will probably be in operation about
eighty days this season.
