CHICAGO. Nov 3. Chalrojaa Jones and
other members of the democratic executive

Colorado and Tlllman of South Carolina.
The first returns received at the < ! emonMc

Tl for McKinley The early return * from
the eastern states showed republican gains
In about ever } Instance But little interest.
however , was manifested in the returns
from states admittedly republican. The
first surprise came from Baltimore , whlcn
showed a big majority for McKinley. indi
cating that the state had gone republican.
Every report from the middle western
states was eagerly watched for. and much
gratification was expressed at the first re
port from Michigan. This was from Gratiot
county , giving Bryan SOO plurality. This
county gave Hamson a plurality of 1.37C
in 152.
"We have no reason to lose heart. " said
Chairman Jones , after reading the returns
from New York and eastern states. "All
this early atuft is what we have been expect
ing. " The first really bad news began to
come in at 7 M p m. on the returns from
states south of the "line. " Other early re
turns from both Tennessee and Ken
tucky showed large republican gains ,
as did the first returns from
Illinois outside of Cook county. Two
precincts in Bloomington. the home of
Vice President Stevenson , gave McKinley
iOO plurality. The returns from Michigan ,
however , were more encouraging. At S 30 p
oi. Chairman Campau claimed the state bv
25.0W.
At 9 p. m. Chairman Campau of the cam
paign committee expressed great confidence
la the result. "Returns from Ohio. Mlchl- I
Ban and Indiana look very well for us. "
said he. "etpeclally from the two former
States. The onlv thin ? that uo are iir.
prised at ao far is the returns from Illinois
outside of Cook county. These seem to in
dicate that the state has gone for McKinley.
The returns from Baltimore look rather
bad. but we expected early return * to be
unfavprable. Nothiug definite will be
known before midnight. "
At 9 13 Secretary Nelson of the democratic
state central committee had received no re
ports from county chairmen. Prea re-
porta indicate a majority of 50.000 for Mc-
hKlncy ! in Cook county , and this * as sen-
erally coacedrd fcy the committee. Xo re-
po-rtu froin outside of Cook county bad been
received , but the committee still claims 25.-
090 for Bryan. The vote by precincts runs
10 per cent below the registrations. AltseM
In sixty precinct * has run 3.000 ahead of
Bryan , and on thlt basts the committtee
claims his election , even though Bryan
should lose the st2t by iO.OQi ) . Secretary
Netoon says he will concede nothing until
he ha * recelv d reports from his own chair
men , and these are not exported before raid-
night.
At midnight Chairman Jones gave out the
following statement"There Is no founda-
tlon for the claims of the republicans. There
Is at this time , midnight , no reason to think
that any one of the stales claimed by me
for Bryan has failed to vote for him. While

CANTON , O . Nov 3 , Major McKinley
spent his afternoon with Chairman Hanna
and his party , who. with the local commit
tee , were photographed on the MeKlaley
porch with the major as the central figure.
At 4 o'clock Mr Haana and bis associates
left for Cleveland. Mrs. ilcKlaley accom
panied him to the train.
At S o'clock returns began to come la
and preparations were made for reading
them aloud In the McKinley library the
doors beiag open to ail wno chose to come
tn. The major sat at his desk , smoking a
cigar , lister ing attenltvely to each bulletin ,
but showing no outnard concern as to the
result.
Occ dispatch from Joseph Maaley at the
New York headquarters said. "Maiae's ma
jority for McKinley would reach > 19. "
and this was soon follosred by another
Manley dltpatch. saying : "New- York state
will give you 260 < * " 8 majority. " The major
himself smilingly read a teleoram from Max ,
Pracht of Oregon , sayiag : 1'Oregon is yours
and the fUlcess thereof. " *
At 7 o'clock Major McKinley retired for
his supper , while the reading of returns
proceeded. Up to that time be had made
no comment on the returns , further tbaa to
say thai the bulk of theof came from the
east thus far.
When favorable returns from Omaha aa3
other towas In Nebraska were read he sat
Ucpasslve aad apparently oblivious to the
exclamaticas of approval from frleads
crowded about him. In the parlor across the
ball Mrs. McKinley And her near relatives
aad frieads received returns.
By S o'clock the character of private dis
patches aad general return * reaching the
McKinley house was such that a feeling of
absolute confidence took possession of those
centered in the major's Hbj-ary The offi
cials at the 'Chicago headquarters sent fre-
quen : private messages to illjor McKinley
each one swelling the total ot states
claimed for the republican candidate. The
detailed returns which were read aa they
came appeared to bear out the claims from
the headquarters cad the spJnt of victory
achieved was on every HP- Governor Mc
Kinley had Joined his. Mfe and mother la

to the general public.
A : 9 o'clock the major's nephew. Mr.
Saxton. emerged from the parlor with a
private dispatch Just received. It was from
Garret A. Hobart. vice presidential candi
date , who at this early hour felt that vic
tory was won aad telegraphed his congrat
ulations. The message read as follows :
Congratulation * with til raj- heart on the

Mrs. Hobart Joins me ft onngratuIaUanit.
GAnnST A. HOBAHT.
There was a round ot applause from a
group within the library as Mr. Hobart's
words were read. Soon thereafter Major
'
McKinley came from' the parlor atd joined
the crowd ja the outer room. His face
now wore unmistakable looks of .satisfac
tion and be smiled cad qhetted with those
about him on the favorable character of
the reports. He was not yet ready , how
ever , to express his own1 judgment on the
result. although It was evident that he
shared the general feellniaot confidence that
he had carried the day. *
Another dispatch to Mr. 'McKinley gave
the estimate of Dr Jamison , chairman of
the republican committee 'of Illinois , as
follows "Our reports up to the present
time ( S 40) indicate thst u-o will run over

At 10 o'clock the republican state com
mittee gives out aa official claim that Mc
Kinley will carry the state by S7.0W oa the
basis of returns thus far received. Secre
tary Turner said. "The committee is grati
fied at the assurance that Its former claim
7S.C04 plurality will be more than justified.
We are now certain of electing every one
of the Iowa ceagresamea. '
At the democratic headquarters no state
ment could be had. It was claimed the re
turns thus far received were chiefly from
i the cities , where the democrats expected
republican gains. The democratic commit
tee represents that the returns from the

TOPEKA. Kan. , Nov J. At midnight
there are no returns whatever from this
state aad It is Impossible to make a predic
tion of aay character cornceralng the result.
The officials at the various state political
headquarters still maintain the claims made
before the election and postirely refute to
discuss the question beyond that point.
The count is proceeding unusually hlowly.
which is accounted for by the apparent
scratching of all candidates , except Governor
Morrlll. republican , who Is appareatly run
ning far ahead of his ticket. The Kansas
election law necessitates the marking of
each and every candidate even if ticket Is
voted straight. The state Is in doubt.

With the closing of the polls last alght
the hottest political campaign in the history
of the city was brought to an end , yet the
climax was not reached. AH last night the
principal streets of the- city contained a
howling ma of people , who cheered and
tooted thousand * of tin horss as sews of
the result ot the count progressed and was
announced.
The Bee , as usual , had erected a large can
vas upon which were thrown the bulletins
i as they came In over the telegraph wires
'
A powerful lime light was brought Into play
and as news of republican majorities * as >
received the thousands of people who had
gathered about The Bee building cheered until -
til they were hoarse. Whea the picture of
.Major McKinley was displayed the enthusl-
aeta knew ao bounds , aad the din that aroie
might have tn-ea heard for miles around.
The World-Herald displayed returas by
the aid of a stcreoptlcon. but the result was
not satisfactory , owing to the fact that the
operator was unable to get a foeus that
would bring out the figures with aay degree
of distinctness.
Down at the office of the Postal Telegraph
company a etertoptlcon was la use aad an
other large crowd gathered around the
corner.
The telephone company grouped Its tele
phones and supplied Us patrons with the
election results while they sat In their
homes.
Early yesterday moraine the Bryanltes
marshaled their forces for the Sht. going
upon the theory that victory nas to porch
upon their banner In this city At noon
they felt sure that their candidate would
win out by a good-sized plurality , but early
In the afternoon they gav < up the Aght
and In many of the wards pulled off their
bustlers and sent them home. Soon after
this the carriages that had beea hired to
haul voters ta the polls were driven to th * >
stables anj the neld was abandoned com
pletely , being left In charge of the McKin
ley forces and the sound money demo raa.
Men who bad bet their money on Bryan
made a desperate attempt to get In out of
the wet by hedging that their favorite would
carry Alabama or some southern state that
the republicans neter claimed.
BRYANITES LEAVE THE FIELD.
When the polls clued it 6 o'clock there
was scarcely a polling place In the city
where a Bryan man could be found , yet
everywhere the republicans were In high
spirits. They felt that they had scored a
victory , aad that while they had rolled up
a. grand vote for the nominees on the na
tional ticket , they had doue the tame for
the state ticket and had l * ed nearly. If
not quite , every man on the legislative ,
