Washington Nov 9J
Lato this afternoon Republican
Chairman Babcock claimed that 171
Republicans had certainly boon
elected to Congress This fell five
short of a majority for thoro are
857 members in tho House requiring
179 votes to organize
To night Mr Babcock said that
later roturns indicate that seven
more Republicans had beon elector
making 181 altogether or a majority
of four over Democrats Populists
and Fusionists His table of Re
publicans certainly elootod is as
follows
California 6 Connecticut Dela
ware 1 Illinois 13 Indiana 8 Iowa
11 Kansas G Kontucky 1 Maine -1
Maryland 8 Massachusetts 10
Michigan 12 Minnesota5 Missouri
3 Nebraska 3 New York 18 New
Hampshire 2 New Jersey 0 North
Dakota 1 Ohio 16 Oregon 2 Penn
sylvania 21 Rhode Island 2 South
Dakota 2 Tennessee 2 Vermont 2
Washington 2 West Virginia 4
Wisconsin 10 Wyoming 1 total 181
Babcock says the Democrats are
only sure of 153 the Populists 9 and
the Silverites 2 loaving twolvo in
the doubtful column of which he
expects one moro Republican from
California one from Kansas and
possibly two more from Indiana
It will bo seen that in the above
estimate he claims all four of the
West Virginia Congressmen as well
as three from Missouri and two from
Washington State He says that
Joy R is elected in Missouri and
James Hamilton Lewis and William
0 Jones of Washington State have
been defeated by Cushmau and
William L Jones Republicans
Democratic Chairman Korr is
equally positive in his declaration
that 181 Democrats have been elect
ed or a majority of eight oyer Re
publicans Populists and fusionists
aud that eleven districts are in
doubt TluiB both chairmon are
making practically tho same claim
and it may bo several days before
the result is definitely known
Tho chances seom to be that
neither Republicans nor Democrats
will control tho House but the
Populists and fusionists will hold
the balance of powor There was
some talk to day that in this evont
the Republicans of tho House in
order to prevent the election of a
Speaker favorable to silver would
invito the gold mouoy Domoorats to
join tnem anu tunt jointly tuey
would elect aB Speaker a gold money
Democrat Republicans say that
this would bo infinitely preferable to
tho election of oithor a silvor Demo
crat or o wild eyed Populist
