BULLETIN.
New York, Nov. 8. A statement
issued at republican national head
quarters at 2:30 o'clock this after
noon claimed Minnesota, Oregon,
California and New Hampshire and
asserted that Hughes had obtained 277
electoral votes.
New York, Nov. 8. Chairman Will
cox of the -republican national com
mittee, at 12:50 o'clock, issued this
statement:
"California and Minnesota arc
surely for Hughes. This means
Hughes is elected."
The statement, he said, was based
upon advices from the respective
states, claiming California by 10,000
votes and Minnesota by 20,000. Ches
ter H. Rowell telegraphed from San
Francisco that the republicans could
concede everything that the demo
crats claim and still carry the state by
6,000.
New York, Nov. 8. Democratic
Chairman McCormick said' early this
afternoon:
. "When the count is finished Wilson
will have more than 300 electoral
votes."
' He added that his advices ver; that
West Virginia had gone -democratic
hy 10,000.
New York, Nov. 8. With the coun
try's choice of a president in the al
most unorecedented status nf rlrmht
on the day after election, both demo-!
cratic and republican headquarters
were scenes of nervous tension. AlV
though both sides claimed majori
ties .in the electoral college, there
seemed nevertheless to be a feeling
at both places there was s chance that
. the .determination flfcjthe fin si .result
with so many states doubtful might
be prolonged perhaps4or another day
and there was some unofficial talk
that the decision might eventually be
thrown into-the house of representa
tives. There were suggestions also that
there might be in some states bitter
contests' over the integrity of the re
turns which might be drawn out for
days, with the result hinging on a re
count. George VW Perkins at repub
lican headquarters commenting upon
the close vote in some states declared
that a recount might be necessary.
Warning by McCormick.
Chairman McCormick early today
sent telegrams "to every state and
county chairman where the result
appears close commanding them to
personally see that the ballot boxes
are guarded and protected.
Chairman McCormick shortly after
11 o'clock claimed President Wilson's
election with 288 electoral votes.
"I am basing my decision on the
official canvass of pivotal states," he
added. it is a sweeping victory.
Mr. McCormick claimed Kansas.

electoral votes.
Returns Shift During Night.
During the night the returns from
the doubtful states continued to point
first toward one candidate and then
toward the other, but toward morning
there was noticed a steady drift to

HUGHES GAINS FAST

Wilson's Earlier Lead in Min
nesota Being Out Down as
Returns Come In.
CRUMBLING VERY RAPIDLY
pSt Paul, Nov. '8. With v returns
from' the rural district of' Minnesota
coming in rapidly Tonight,' the' early
lead established by President Wilson
was being gradually cut down by
Hughes, When returns from 2,191
of the state's 3,024 precincts had been
tabulated, the president's led by 2,112
votes, the count being Wilson 148,
672; Hughes, 146,560.
St. Paul, Nov. 8. Returns from 2,
155 precincts out of 3,024 gave Wil
son 148,161; Hughes, 144,821.
St. Paul,, Nov. 8. Returns for
president from 2,11'2 precincts out of
3.024 in Minnesota gave Wilson 145,
923; Hughes, 141,976. Wilson's plur
ality is now cut to 3,957, the lowest
to date.
St. Paul, Nov. 8. Returns .for
president from 2,083 precincts out of
3,024 in Minnesota give Wilson 144,
310; Hughes, 139,895!
St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 8. When 2,
005 of the 3,024 precincts in Min
nesota had reported at 6 p. m. Wil
son's vote was 141,921 and Hughes
136,952, showing a decrease in the
president's lead.
St. Paul, Nov. 8. Wilson's lead
over Hughes in Minnesota dropped
to 5,792 late today when returns from

128,944.
St. Paul, Nov. 8. Returns from 1,
946 out of 3,024 precincts in Min
nesota gave Wilson 138,796; Hughes,

Hughes' Plurality in
Jersey About 40,000
Trenton, N. J., Nov. 8. Hughes'
plurality in New Jersey at 3 p. m.
was fully 39,565. The total vote with
267 districts missing gave Wilson 180,-
326J Hughes, 219,934. Earlier returns
which appeared to give Hughes when
462 districts were missing a plurality
of only 9,196 proved to be an error
when a revision of the figures was
made. Hughes' plurality at that time
was instead j,148.

Excitement in London
London, Nov. 8. The presidential
election in the United States excited
great interest throughout London.'
The, morning papers announced
Charles E. Hughes had been elected
and this was taken for granted until
the tickers and the early evening
papers showed that the issue was in
doubt. From that time forward ex
cited groups assembled in the clubs
and hotels scanning the latest returns.

Wilson to Have Slight

STATE IS STILL IN DOUBT
: San Francisco, Nov. 8.--Chester H.
state central committee, predicted to
night Hughes' election in California
by g small majority. . Mr. Rowell's
statement follows: .
"Figures gathered by the Los An
geles office of the republican state
committee covering more than 1,000
precincts and close estimates of the
remaining precincts now indicate that
Hughes will carry Los Angeles county
Dy :J,UUU. i
"The Los Angeles office estimates
that this lead will be increased 12,000
more by other Southern California
counties. If these figures are borne
out by the final count, Hughes will
carry California.
"Our figures on San Francisco in
dicate a majority of little, if anv.
above 15,000 for Wilson."
ban Francisco, Nov. 8. Chester H.
Rowell, chairman of the republican
state central committee of Cali
fornia, informed Chairman Willcox
of the republican national committee
in Mew York today that Hughes
will carry California by 6,000 to 8,000.
This was in answer to Willcox's dec
laration that "California is now the
pivotal state."
Los Angeles, Cat., Nov. 8. Partial
count of 693 city and county pre
cincts give Hughes 61,373; Wilson,
46,134.
No effort was made by the regis
trar of votes to tabulate returns after
midnight and official results probably
will not be available soon.
Sacramento, Cal., Nov. 8. Sacra

Oakland, Cal., Nov. 8. Three hun

San Francisco, Nov. 8. Three

San Francisco, Nov. 8. Returns
available early today indicated that
the contest between Wilson and
Hughes in California was so close
that an official count might be neces
sary to determine the result. With
2,152 precincts in various districts of
the state out of a total of 5,917 ac
counted for. the president was leading
by about 700 votes.
Owing to the exceptional length of
the ballot few precincts had reported

WHAT THE FIGURES SHOW
With slow count in Douglas county
and decidedly fragmentary returns,
the best possible survey of resulting
majorities must be only approximate,
but that the work of the "wets" favor
ing the state democratic ticket has
made a victory for the democratic
local ticket almost as a whole is plain.
On the presidency. Wilson will go
out of Douglas county with a majority
over Hughes possibly in excess of the
wet majority, which is likely to he
between 9,000 and 10,000. The "wets,"
however, fell far behind their expecta
tions, as they were counting on a two
to one vote, with a majority amount
ing close to 15,000. F.ven in the Third
ward the "wet" majority is only an
even 1,000, which is no more than it
has given once or twice to Mayor
JJahlman.
For United States senator the pros
pect is that Hitchcock will distance
Kennedy by something like 2,500 in
Douglas, which is a terntic comedown
from the 9,000 majority he had when
he ran against Burkett six years ago.
In the congressional race, Lobeck
is substantially ahead of Baker with
a probable majority which will re
elect him unless overcome in the
other counties.
The governorship was supposed to
be closely connected with they "wet"
and "dry fight, but Neville, the
"wet" candidate, is not likely to have
more than 3,000, if that many, over
sutton, in this county.
When it comes to the county offices
it looks as if all the democrats were
carried along on the "wet" wave,' ex
cept, possibly Mike Clark, who as
republican opponent of Sheriff Mc
hShane. is running far ahead of his
ticket, with a fair chance of capturing
the prize: " '
For His'fficf judges ' the sitting
juugca arc ail w?u ill inc icau wiin
the exception of Wakeley, who is the
low man and may possibly be passed
by Judge Dickinson, who is the high
man in the field.
The citizens school board ticket
has won out as a whole, with possible
losses of one or two. Bekins seems
to be the low man on the citizens'
ticket snd Judge W. A. Foster a
probable winner among those who
were not on that ticket.
