managers conceded that the result of
yesterday's election was such as to
give them no cause for looking after
returns. Chairman I)lck of the Repub-
lican state headquarters claimed from
later unofficial returns that McKin-
ley's plurality would be between 70,-
000 and 80,000 the lurgost in the his-
tory of tho state except in 1963 when
Brough had over 100,000, his opponent
being Val land Ingham, who was then

Republican papers are out to day with
McKinley's name hoisted as their can-
didate for president.
The legislature will be Republican
by uhout two-thirds in both houses.
Governor McKinley said just before
he retireil to rest at daylight this
morning that he had really not been
agreeably surprised at the majority
given hint. He secured a clear major-
ity over the entire opposition for the
first time since 1881. His plurality in
1891 \\ as 8,511.
McKinley has carried this congres-
sional district, represented by Mr.
Outhwaite, by 873. Ex-Governor
Campbell's plurality in it two j*ears
ago was 3,500. At this rate the peo-
ple here are preparing themselves for
all sorts of surprises relating to Mc-
Kinley's gains.
In reply to an inquiry as to tho
causes for the result in Ohio,Governor
McKinley to-day sCTttcd that Lawrence
T. Neal, the Democratic candidate for
governor, was recognized as much a
freetrader as he < McKinley I was an
advocate of protection. At the Chica-
go national convention last year that
nominated Cleveland for president,
Neal was the author of the an-
ti-tariff plank ami had it in-
serted in the platform instead of the
plank reported by Cleveland's friends
011 the committee on resolutions. In
his opening speech in this campaign
at Newark, Ohio, he not only said
that his campaign would be foughton
the lines of the Chicago platform
which hail been incorporated into tho
state platform on which he stood, but
also so clearly defined his position as
a free trader that the two candidates
were recognized throughout the can-
vass as embodying in their views this
issue as had never been before so dis-
tinctly presented to the people.
"The next day after Seal's speech
at Newark." said Governor McKinley,
1 uvecpU'ti) hi* interpretation of the
issue as represented by us respective-
ly ana we fought it out on that line
in over KM) public meetings of each
candidate that followed and were in-
variably addressed in accordance with
the challenge at Newark and its
prompt acceptance "
Governor McKinley said the returns
would now speak more forcibly than
he was able to do ami he knew of
nothing that he could add except to
say that heretofore the campaigns had
been conducted with complications of
issues, but that this time the tight was
centered on protection with the
leader of free trade clearly defined in
-his position and the tnrriff issue fully
presented at every meeting of all
parties in the canvass.
At ? p. m. those tabulating returns
at Republican state headquarters said
McKinley's plurality would reach
100,000. Chairman Dick, however,
said he would not claim over 8.» 000
till he had responses from his local
committeemen.
timated returns it is probable that the
Republicans have elected their officers
in at least ninety counties of the 10.1
in the state and have probably elected
ten district judges, the Populists two
and the Democrats one.
The Populists still claim that they
have carried the state and that a full
count of the votes will bear out their
ante-election predictions. The tele-
grams received by Chairmau Brelden-
tha 1 indicate Populists gains over the
vote of 1891, but his information is so
meager and from such remotely scat-
tered localities that it is not satisfac-
tory to the unpredjudiced mind. He
claims that the early dispatches were
based upon the returns from the pre-
cincts in the cities or near the rail-
road stations and that no definite in-
formation had been received from rur-
al communities where the Populist
strength lies.
Congressman Jerry Simpson ex-
presses the greatest confidence that
Hm Populists nave oarried tka state,
lie believes they have inade gaius, in
proportion to tho vote cast, of from
ten to fifteen per cent over the vote of
1892. If he be correct in his estimate
the Populist pluiality is from 10,000
to 20,000. __
CHICAGO.
The Ilepuldleans Have Apparently Made
a Clean ► weep.
Chicago, Nov. 9.—Tho revision to-
day of election returns show that the
Republicans elected their entire
judicial ticket with the possi-
ble exception of Kraft, with
Judge Gary in the lead. Kraft was
identified to some extent with
the Socialists. The Republicans
showed general gains throughout the
city and county over the ptesidential
vote of last year and in addition Gary,
who presided at the Haymn**ket An-
archist trial, and who was opposed by
Governor Altgcld's influence, received
many Democratic votes, putting him
considerably ahsad of his ticket i"
the fight for county commissioners,
the result somewhat in doubt and
it may require the official count to de-
side which party if in the lead. It is
apparent, however, that the board
will be mixed as men on both tickets
seem to have been elected.
The election of Judge Gary has
been a very severe blow to Governor
Altgeld, who dictated the make up of
the Democratic ticket and threw his
entire influence against Gary. The
defeat, it is thought, has lessened his
chances for re-election and discour-
aged the Democrats upon the eve of
the election of a successor to the late
Mayor Harrison.

Tor era, Kan.. Nov. 9 —Returns re-
ceived to-day from various points in
the state seem to assure a sweeping
victory of the Republicans over the
Populists The Democratic and Pro-
hibition votes were very light and cut
but small figure. The returns are
still incomplete but froiq fijll antf es-
Washinotox, Nov. 0.—{
the election has been received with
surprise by all political parties here.
The chief surprise of the Democrats
arises, not from the fact that they were
defeated, but that the defeat was so
general in all doubtful states and the
Republican majority so overwhelming.
A grain of comfort is accorded to them
in the defeat of the Populists in Vir-
ginia and the election of O !• errall
to the governorship, but the blows
have been so severe iu the states of
New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey
nnd Ohio that even the success in Vir-
ginia is hardly paraded as a triumph.
All tho prominent Democratic lead-
ers unite in ascribing the general de-
feat throughout the country to two
causes—the dissatisfaction of the agri-
cultural elements over the financial
question and the widespread apathy
of disappointed office seekers who
have failed to realize the fruits of the
last Democratic victory. In the state
of Ohio alone was the tariff question
a prominent theme of discussion, Mc-
Kinley and Neal so emphatically rep-
resenting the declarations o.f their par-
ties in this respect, but here, loo, the
Democrats were routed by the same
Republican majority.
In Iowa the defeat of -Boies is im-
portant, not that it means a Republi-
can governor in that state and a Re-
pubiicanl United States senator next
winter, but that it practically removes
Roles from the list of Western candi-
dates for the presidency in '9fl.
The Populists still contend that
later returns will show that their
party has made a far better showing
in various states than is conceded ti
them in the earlier dispatches. In
Virginia they succeeded in alarnvng
the Democrats during the past two
weeks but the leaders of the lat ter par-
ty rallied in time to make unprece-
dented efforts to get out their full
vote and it looks as though the Popu-
lists would have stood a much better
chance for victory by making n still
tight. The Populist senators and rep-
resentatives who are in the city are
anxiously waiting tho latest news
from Nebraska and Kansas and expect
cheering reports from the official re-
turns.
The free coinage Democrats who
have so bitterly reproached President
Cleveland for forcing the repeal bill
through congress and who have for
weeks been predicting a crushing de-
feat in all the great state elections this
fall, now .point to the Democratic de-
feat as the result of the party's de-
parture from its faith in the recent
extraordinary session. Chairman
broke out on the West side about 3
o'clock this morning, and before it
was subdued destroyed two handsome
residences and four barns and partially
burned two more houses. The loss is
fully 515,000, about half insured.

A Fierce l-'iglit
ltule.
New York,Nov. 9.—One of tho most
peculiar campaigns in the history of
the state was closed at sundown last
evening. And it is safe to say that
the Democratic managers arc not
more surprised at the result than aro
the Republicans. Tho dominant issue
in all portions of the state has been
ring rule, and the Republicans in New
York city, Brooklyn, Albany and Buf-
falo have been greatly assisted by tho
organized efforts of independent Dcm-
ts. Isaac 11. Maynard, the candi-
date on tho Democratic ticket for
judge of the court of appeals, against
whom independent Democrats have
waged war most bitter and unrelent-
ing, has been most surprisingly and
'whelniimrly defeated. In New
York city he ran 35,000 behind his
ticket, in Hrooklyn over 18,000 and in
•ie county several thousand.
Almost without exception, the re-
turns from every part of the stato
show lie was heavily scratched. Even
ten of ltoss" MeKnne's retainers' at
Coney Island scratched liim. The re-
sult seems to be that he has been de-
feated by a plurality close in tho
neighborhood of 100,000.
Practically complete returns from
many of the counties of the state and
scattering returns fro n the others in-
licate the Republicans have elected
their entire state ticket, and that.thev
will have a good working majority iu
the next legislature.
In Hrooklyn the local campaign was
fought bitterly. Mayor Hoody, who
was renominated by the Democrats,
was opposed by the Yjoung Mens In-
dependent Democratic club of Hrook-
lyn most fiercely, and the Republican
candidate, ( harles A. Sehieren. was
indorsed, with the result the Demo-
cratic majority of 29,000 at the lsiSt
election has been overturned and a
Republican mayor elected by about
15,000.

Sweeping Victory
People.
Of
Com min s, Ohio, Nov. 9.—With
plurality of 90,000 and two-thirds •
both branches of the legislature,
McKinley has won the most decisive
victory recorded in Ohio since the
civil war. It has been won on
national issues. Although McKinley
was running for re-election as gover-
nor, he made state affairs secondary
to protection and honest money in till
his speeches, numbering 110. it
would not have been a surprise two
weeks ago, but after the action of
congress, there seemed to have been
such a reaction that the overwhelming
vote is a surprise. Tho Democrats
did not allow the contest to go by
default, but made a most vigorous
fight with its working forces Kx-
Governor Campbell canvassed the
state for Lawrence T. Neal all last
week and the Democratic committee
was hopeful after congress reached
decisive action.
The Republican managers would
have ex pec ted such results two weeks
ago, but they were astonished last
night. Governor MeKinlc.v was not
surprised at the" result. He has ex-
pected it all along, and felt confident
that the impressions of the change of
conditions would not be overcome by
the campaign efforts for reaction.
The weather was pleasant all over
the state and there was a full vote of
over 800,0 0. The decisive results of
former years have been because of
small vote, those of one party or the
other not turning out ltutthe voters
were out yesterday all over the state,
tnd McKinley has a majority over all
with Democrat, Prohibition and Popu-
lists tickets opposed to him.
