STATE FUSION TICKET IS
SUCCESSFUL.
nolb I'nrUe* I’ut forth Claim* that
leaves lho tl. S. Hanalorahlp Matter
lo Doubt—The Male and Congrr»*lonal
Vntt a* Fir a*
At thin writing there is claim on
the part of both parties of tbo Nebras
ka legislature-eject. The Omaha Uee
save:
“Both houses of the next legislature
are republican, 'l he United States sen
ator elected to succeed William V.
Allen will be a republican. This has
been decided by the returns from the
various senatorial and legislative dis
tricts which give the republicans an
undisputed majority In each house of
the legislature. One by one districts
which were represented In the last
legislature by fusionlats have reported
the election of republican members as
the official figures have been complied.
The republican majority on Joint bal
lot, according to the best available
returns. Is fifteen. The republican ma
jority in the senate is nine, there be
ing twenty-one republican senators as
against twelve fusionlst senators. The
republican majority In the house Is
six, there being fifty-three republican
members as against forty-seven fusion
members. The Joint session will there
fore consist of seventy-four republi
cans and fifty-nine fusionlats.”
Omaha Bee: "With returns com
plete from forty-three counties and
practically complete returns on the
rest of the state Chulrtnan Schneider
of the republican state committee con
cedes the election of l’oynter, fusion,
for governor by 1.000 votes. It Is pos
sible that the figures may vary 200
from this, but hardly more. Bel urns
on the rest of the state ticket Indicate
that the candidates are running about
the same as the head of the ticket.
The election of fiiBlon congressmen In
the Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth dis
tricts Is indicated by the returns be
yond hope of a change.”
The Omaha World-Herald thus sums |
nn:
"All Interest now renters In the con
test for the Nebraska legislature. The
World-Herald prints today a corrected
list of the members who, according to
advices received by the World-Herald,
have received a majority of the votes
In their districts. According to this
list the renubllcans have 18 and the
fusloniets 15 In the senate. The re
publicans have 4R and the fuslonists
52 In the house. This would give the
fuslonists 87 votes on Joint ballot,
which is the oxact number necessary
to elect a United States senator."

BOSTON A HORRIBLE EXAMPLE,
A neilmlnittr Abltrf Rtrmna on "Chris
tian MclentUts and Kindred Marta.”
Lon Do x, Nov. 11.—The revelation*
made at the inquest over the body of
Harold Frederic, correspondent of the
New York Times, have aroused feeling
against Christian Scientists. Canon
Iltton. preaching in Westminster Abby.
attracted attention to the matter by a
vehement protest against the growth
of Heientists and kindred sects. Many
of Ida fashionable congregation are
well known to be Christian Scientists,
among them Lady Dun more and Lady
Abinger.
Canon Hiton warmly denounced “the
greedy belief in quackery, which is
now prevalent,” and, in emphasizing
the fact that this spirit of credulity is
growing up with the enormous expan
sion and mechanical and scientific
progress said: “Jloston is the most
cuiturcd city of tins most progressive
nation in tiie world, yet parts of llos
ton are given up to mediums, wizards
and astrologers. ”
As an instance of this he said: "A
party of women in Koston recently
dressed themselves in white and sat up
all night long waiting for the milien
ium. Yet the United States is a prac
tical country.”
VICTORIA ON AMERICAN GIRLS.
No Moro Anxiety Over the Marriages or
the Aristocracy.
London, Nov. 14. — Jt appears that
Queen Victoria recently expressed her
views on the marriages of members of
the English aristocracy with Ameri
can girls. She confessed that she at
first viewed these marriages with tome
anxiety, but uddod that her fears had
since been completely allayed. The
queen now thinks that American girls
from the breadth of their education,
independence and rapid ciianging life
are better able to adapt themselves to
a new environment than the more
stereotyped English girls. The queen
also thinks it unfuir to insinuate that
mercenary motives are the frequent
cause of the murriages of impoverished
noblemen to heiresses.
TASCOTT FOUND AGAIN.
Chicago Policemen Believe They Have
the Murderer of Hanker Snail.
Chicago, Nov. 14.—Sergeant Mooney
and I’atroiinan Larkin of the Harrison
street police station believe that they
have arrested the long sought ••Willie”
Taseott, the alleged murderer of
banker Snell in IMS*). The prisoner
says lie is .Tolin Farnsworth, of Col
umbus. A careful comparison with
the description of Taseott lias mused j
the policemen to believe that they !
have the right man at last. Little I
credence is placed in the identification, j
however, as Taseott has had many I
opportunities to change his physical i
appearance during the last ten years. I
Farnsworth was arrested at ('lark and j
Van liuren streets to-day.

PRAISED BY CERVERA
1 ho Official Kcport ts Madrid Tail* of
ths Ilnmanltr of tha Americana
WAumsoTcm, Not. 14.—In his official
report to the Spanish minister of ma
rine describing the battle of Santiago.
Admiral Cervera giro* high praise to
the humane and courteous treatment
accorded him and his subordinates by
the American authorities. He speaks
of the efforts made by tbo Iowa and
Gloucester to save life, of the solici
tude shown by the Americans for the
comfort of those whom they had taken
prisoners, and finally of tiio generos
ity of the victors in providing so hoi
pitably for them In the United Ktates
In the report Admiral Cervera also
says: "The result of the battle was
never in doubt, but I never thought
that my vessels would be so quiukty
destroyed. The enemy's fire produced
terrible injuries on bourd the Maria
Teresa, destroying her auxiliary steam
pi {Mrs and fire mains. After the com
mander of the Teresa fell wounded I
myself took command of the ship. In
view of the utter impossibility of de
fending the ship any longer site was
directed with the greatest rapidity to
the shore to the westward of the Ca
brera, where she was stranded at the
same moment that her machinery
stopped.
“The second and third commanders
agreed with me that it was impossible
to prolong the fight. We proposed to
haul down the flag, but it was impos
sible on account of the great headway
made by the flames. At this time the
fire hod made such headway that it
became necessary to abandon the ship
and those who were able to do so
threw themselves into the water, where
they were saved by American Imata.’’
Admiral Cervera then gives an ac
count of tke destruction of the other
vessels.

cerning Ills policy. “I intend to give

who in not a moral man, nor ouo who
doea not eschew intoxicant*. A vulgar,
obscene man cannot receive an ap
pointment from my bands, whatever
be hi« Indorsements. He must be hu
mane; that is very essential. The men
who will !>«• nt the head of the institu

have clean records in their own com
munities.
••I am greatly pleased with the cam
paign conducted by Mr. Albatigh, and,
although neither he nor 1 said a word
regarding It, nor boa he ever intimated
to me that he wants anything, such Is
my feeling for him that lie can have
anything in my power to give him.
He aided me greatly in my campaign
for the nomination, and he has done
magnificent work as chairman of the
Republican state committee.
,-I have not promised anyone any
thing. There are absolutely no
strings to me. 1 havo not thought of
anyone for auy position as yet, and no
appointments will be made for some
time. Our state platform declares In
favor of giving the preference to old
aoldiers, and 1 shall do no.
"Ah to the metropolitan police, 1
have already gone on record. I shall
not re-establlsli any metropolitan po
lice boards.”
