DELAWARE'S
LEGISLATURE REPUB
LICAN. ft
Our returns this morning confirm those
of yesterday as to the general result. The
elec Ion of Harrison and Morton Is con
ceded by all well informed democrats,
though many, remembering how the re
suit hung in doubt for several days four
years ago, and finally settled down to a
democratic vlct ry, have been hoping that
such might be the case this time till com
pelled to abandon the hope. Xew York is
for Harrison by nearly 12,000 plurality,
and Indiana for Harrison by 3.100. Cali
fornia has gone for Cleveland by perhaps
5000, and Connecticut by a very small
margin. As the case now stands Harrison
and .Morton will have 225 electoral votes,
or 24 more than enough to elect them.
Special dispatch to tho I'rco Press.
New Yop.k, Nov. 7. "Harrison's all
right" Is the word everywhere to
day. Kven tho democrats and
mugwumps concede It. Tho repub
licans are jubilant and are prepariug to
celebrate magnificently the situation. At
noon the situation appears to be this :
Harrison has carried every State thai
voted for Blalne In 1SS4, giving him 18.'
votes. He carrlis New York by
14 000 to 10 000, giving 30 mori
or 213 in all. That is 17 more than he
needed to elect him. There are the besi
reasons for believing he 1ms carried lu
dlana by 1 ',000 to 15,000, giving 15 votes
more, or 233 to 10S for Cleveland in the
electoral college. The democratic pap?rs
now concede Indiaua to Harrison by 4000
There Is still hope of Harrtsou curryln,.
Connecticut, though It is doubtful. I.ii
tie has been heard from California
but Oregon is all right .by -looo
and Nevada telegraphs that she Is repub
llcau from top to bottom by 15,000. Call
forula is therefore undoubtedly republican
by probably 20,000.
Virginia and West Virginia are still In
very doubt, the Delaware Legislature W
cio-eand tho republicans have hope o
electing n United States Senator. The pro
hibition vote lu this State and elsewhen
1b insignificant. The republicans claim
with good reason a majority of 15 10 20 h
Congress. It Is feared that Warner
Miller m beaten for governor of New Yort
by Hill and the grog shops by a small plu
rality. In this city Tammany Hall car
ries everything.

The
Republican Carry tho State by a
Large Majority.
Coli'.miius, Ohio, Nov. 7. Probably the
coolest and app.iieutly the least Interest1 d
man lu tho city to-day was Judge Thur
man, who spent the time In t e same way
as he ha3 done the past few years, quietly
resting in his library. On being asked
for expression of his opinion he said he
had nothing to say.
The two State committees nre still re
ceiving reiurns Iroui tho State and figur
ing up the gains and losses, republicans
claiming a plurality of 23,090 to 30,000,
placing their ebtimatb on mo e or less
jomple e returns from about halt the
counties in t ie State. The democratic
committee says complete or couserva
tlvely estimated retun s from 22
out of 8S counties Hive evidence
of a democratic gain of a little over 9000,
and if this ratio continues, which they
carcely daro hope, they will carry the
State. At any rate they say there Is no
doubt they cut down the republican plur
ality to small figures.
For Congress the democrats sny their
looses balance their gains. Tho republi
cans claim a net gain of one, lmrrison
lost in the 10th, claiming a gain lu the 7th
and 21st. Among the representatives in

The Courant's returns make the total
vote of Connecticut 153070 for president.
Cleveland 74,851, Harrison 74520, prohibi
tion 4105, labor ticket 191. This makes
Cleveland's plurality ouly .'lit. A change
ot 10S votes would give the Slate to Har
rison. Every town in the fourth congres
sional district heard from, the figures
now elect Miles (republican) by eight plu
rality in a vote of 41,901, previous returns
gave the district to Seymour, the present
member. If the olllcial count proves the
correctness of the figures, Connecticut
will gain two republican congressmen In
