In New York City the havfewtPtA .'.y earth with the ^ Wyfuocrats, and TammaDy Is badly io the soup. The Repub!tcai s claim that they have ehctea ail the Congressmen In New York City except ote, which is a Democratic loss of several Congressmen. The Republicans have alto carried the States of Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Minnesota, Michigan, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and South Dakota by majorities ranging from 5,000 to 100,OCO. In each of the above Sfates the Democrats lose Congressmen, which insures the Dext House to the Republicans by a good majority. The Democrat have carried Alabama, Arkansas, Florida. Georgia. Kentucky Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi. North Carolina, Texas, Tenness^v Virginia and West Virginia. In sev aral of these States the Republicans Ualaa gains in Congressmen. Tbev claim the defeat of Wilson, in Wesr Virginia, the father of the tariff bill passed bv Congress in the summe". The Republicans also claim that Owens, who was running In Brecken ridge's old district in Kentucky, is deJ?ated. They also claim that tbey have - elected two Congressmen in Louisiana and two in Maryland. The Democrats do not concede these gains I to the Republicans, as the districts claimed are very close and it will require an official count to determine the result in them. Itaeem8 that the Republicans have swept the country, with the exception of the Solid Sooth which remains solid, and is the only bright spot in Tuesday's disaster. The Populists have fared equally as bad as the Democrats as they have failed to hold their own in any State. Kansas and seme other States that they carried in 1892 haye return*d to the Republican column. Definite returns have not been received from some of the far Western States, but it is likely that they have joined in the general landslide to the Republican party, and have declared against Democracy and Pop'?*i-?f8. The Democrats here, including ue Chairman of the Congressional campaign ecmmiitee, ccnceoes that the "next House will be Republican by a small majority, but the Republicans claim a majority of ab >ut thirty, which figure is aoout correct. * The Republicans are very jubilant while the Democrats are very much east down. It Is a great victory for Republican?, and tbey know it. They have recaptured all the States the Democrats cap'ured from tbem in 1892, and made great inroads in several States that have heretofore been uncompromisingly Democrat ic, Chicago, III., Nov. 7 ?A survey of the returns of yesterday's eiection this oorniDg confirms the hasty estimates and partial returns of last night. In the West, Northwest aDd on the Pacific coast the Republican landslide seems to be overwhelming, and in the Southwest the Republican gains reported urn ftf snfth maenlti.de as to su rgest . almost a revolution. Tbe only excep| tions to the rale appear to be In Call* fomia and Nevado. In the former State the Democratic candidate for Governor (Budd) is apparently in advance of Estee, his Republican competitor, although the rest ot the Republican State ticket seems to be certain of lectioD. In Nevada tbe silver party, which exists aa paity in that Sta'e oDly, has to all appearances beaten the Republicans, Democrats and regular Populists, electing its State ticket and Congressman. There la also an element of doubt in Nebraska, where the election of Majors (Rep.) over Holcomb (Pop-Dem.) Is by no means assured. With these exceptions, however, the tide of Republican success appears to be overwhelming. Ohio has given the largest Republican majority in its history. wipiDg out not only McKlnley's plurality of 85,000, but goiDg above high water mark set by John Brough in 1865 of 101,000. It is thought that ho nSRMal rotnrns will show a Renub liean plurality of 140,<XX) to 150,000. Colorado has repudiated Populist doctrines and swung back into the Bepublican column, electing a full Republican ticket and both Congressmen; Kansas, too, has returned to the Republican faith and Jerry Simpson is buried under a landslide aloDg with other Populist candidates. * Wisconsin has reversed her verdict of two years ago and hss elected a Republican State government and nine out of ten Congressmen of the same political faitb. In Illinois the Democrats have met a crushing defeat. Not only hr? the State shown preference for Repi^facan candidates as expressed by sot^Bg^O,000 or 50,000 plurality, but the Cj^fressional delegation has been turned over almost bodily to the R3publcau?, Wm. ^ M. SpriDger going down witn his party in the Seventeenth District. The city of Chirsgo, too.hascast 25,000 plurality ' 1 TV? T sninln HgaiBS* 106 BfeuiOtiauj. XLrc : turt is Rephbliean on joint ballot and ! the result of the oalloUng is a complete reversal of the political situation. Indiana is in fail fstbion, too. Returns are iDCoa;piete,but th-reseems to belittle doubt that the Republican State ticket will have from 20,000 10 25,0C0 plurality and the victors v?lll gain four Congressmen. It 13 felgnitlcanv of the genera! upret that the election of Hon. Wiilikm Hoiinan in the Fourth District is more than doubtful , and the Republicans claim that au L official count will retire the great 00* jector from the X*ticnal Legislature. Mlmesota is Republican by 20,000 to 40.000 plurality,Neison winning against the Democrats and the P pullsts. Michigan gives a Republican pluralMi\nev\ 1 ....l.f?

Jt is practically the same w&v In Iowa, <h:ugh the Democrats of the Hawkeye State have '>? prospect of saving one Congressman? Hayes?in the Second District. The State of Washington is Republican by 9,000 to 10,000 plurality. Including Conf;re6smen. Idado's contribution to the undslide is 2,800 plurality ana tbe Con-1 gressman from that State. North Dakota has endorsed the Republican ticket by 1,000 to 3,000 plurality and in tbe tertitory of Oklahoma tbe Republicans have elected the delegate to Con- j gress by a plurality of 2.500. So much) for States with Republican pluralities. < TurniDg to *.hoc? which retain their t allegiance to Drmocracv thtiv are still evidences of the prevailing trend of political opinion. Arkansas returns a ] solid Democratic ddegaMon, but by * reduced pluralities. In Kentucky it Is 1 possible ard even protnb e that in the g Ashland district, heretofore the bulwark of Democracy, will be represented 111 the F?ft\ fourth Congress by Mr. p Denny, Republican. This win, how- t ever.be due more to disaffection of I Breckinridge D-mocrats ihan to any s growth of Republican sentiment, lu c Louisiana Drmocratic pluralities have ( i*en cut down to such an extent that t Republicans claim two Congressmen, s whether upon go d grounds or not the o official count will de'ero ine. c Tetinessee is all mtxed up.

Returns indicate that the next Legislature will be R publican by a good majority. , entirely republican. St. Paul, Mian., Nov. 7? Nelson, Republican nominee for Governor, is elected by a majority of 30,090. The entire Republican State ticket is probably elected although the Republicans concede that Biermann, Democratic nominee for State Auditor, ran consld erably ahead of his ticket and it is barely possible he has won. Republicans claim the election of all seven Congress, men but icdicatioi s point to the election of Hall, Democrat, over HeatwoleRepubllcan, in the Third District. one only oot in. Philadelphia, Nov. 7?Latter returns show that Kirkpatrlck (R?p) defeats Hart (Dem.) ia the Eight Congressional District by 300 majority. Complete returns have now been received from every Congreasional District in the State, and the result is that the Democrats-still have hulope pj[ the 30 representatives from "this state Td the next House.

Senator Irby him- V >lf says that it is correct. Even the a< pponents ci the convention are get- r dg shsky. The newspaper which ^ wasted so loudly on Wedneeday chat IC i? convention had been defeated yesirday expressed donbt as to the result. 5 hose who had bets on the defeat of le convention are now trying to m edge. All the Indications point to a major- . y of at least 2,000 for the convention. 'l he official count of the State Board of 0 ianagers may be required tc decide to T, le satisfaction of the opponents of u le convention. The Western Union Telegraph Ccm- n' sny, which has been getting and v mdlngout bulletins of the election, * st night issued a bulletin stating that D le total vote up to that time, with a r umber of precincts to hear from, ? ood 21,034 for the convention and 21,- ~ 18 agalDst. This leaves a majority of a ?s than 100 to overcome and nearly il the missing precincts will favor the r! invention. The Western Union puts t., ie vote for Governor up to date at 31,- A ]Q for Evans and 16.184 for Popp, a lajorltv for Evans of about 15,000. he mfsslng precincts will send that isjority to 30,000. A telegram received by the Register Bfterday from Spartanburg stated that ? le majority in that* county for Evans ? as 1,360 and against the convent'on is ^ X) less than the Register gave In Its * itlmate yesterday. ? Tha betting man can put his money R ithe convention. It is going to win. The State Board of Canvassers will leet about the 13th of November to J ibulate the vote. All the county ? cards meet on Tuesday of next week. * Th?

All knex- J lat the voice of the people, freely en- ? rested?had the votes not been manl- f5 nlated and the rankest fraud practiced c ) carry the scheme through?was em- . hatlcaly against a Constitutional con- *' ention. Enowing this, all were, of n ourse, anxious to see from the figures a s they came in how the majority ap- ? arent on the face of the first night's 11 iturns, despite the fraud practiced in at election 4ts?lf, would be scientific- J lly shaved down. And when they D cruse the figures below they will see ? ow it has been don?. ^ The State yesterday telegraphed to 11 its oorrespodents at the several ? ounty seats to wire the complete reurns for their counties. Some of the ? complete" returns, when compared a rlth the totals of the several precincts 0 i the respective counties?actual fig- ? res received from these precincts on a he night of the election?show a most 11 emarkable shrinkage in the Fope and p No" convention votss, while the Evans v nd the MYee" votes show Just as rend erf iri anj&firease. For Instance ? he actual figures received from the ? owns of Kershaw and Camden and a our country boxes on the night of the 1 lection showed these totals: Evans 423, ? 'opt 611, MYes" 270 and "No" 854. ? 7tw the total returns for the county, ? ainui four county precincts, as receiv- c d iaat nitrhLshow these figures: Evans I W, Pope" 835, "Tea" 683, "No" 444. ?hl? would seem to indicate that there its been some very expert counting :oing on since the first returns came in. Ls to the other evidences of fraud all irer the State, one but needs to refer he special telegrams published beow from various portions of the State, .nd to the announcement of the lepubliean State executive comnlttee with regard to contesting he Congressional districts. It i3 need en to summarise the evidences here. How It Stands. Washington, Nov. 8.?At 8 o'clock, ?r.

Cornelson, Orangeburg:. j The addre a issued by the committee ailing the convention reads as fol>W3: 'o the CottGn Planters,Grain Growers, Factors, Commission Merchants, Bankers, and all Others Interested in the Agricultural Interests of the Country: The undersigned, a joint committee f the Vicksburg Board of Trade and tie Vicksburg Cotton Exchange, desire o call your earnest attention to a conention to oe held in the city of Vicksurg, Miss, on the 20th day of Novemer, with the view of impressing upon tie Uaited States benats the lmporance of passing the Hatch bill or some iDdred measure at the coming sesslOD f Congress. We also appeal to you or your hearty co operation, and ask; ou to use your influence with others n your vicinity in this behalf. The present condition of the Hatch >111 is such, that with the proper eforts by its friends in the agricultural itates, there can be little doubt of Its eing passed and receiving the signaure of the President. It passed the House by an overwhelm og majority, and there is a reasonable oDathata majority of the Senators re favorable to it in its present form r to it as it may be amended, to make t more effective. The work in hand is to secure action n it by said body as promptly aspossile. Whlletwo thirds of the Senotors nay be opposed to "future gambling," here are some who are opposed to atempting its suppression by the Fedral government, and they might so elay action on this bill, or any similar ne as to defeat it. It is to guard gainst thi3 delay that this convention f the people is called to meet in the entre of the cotton belt. It should be large and influential convention, and t should take such measures as will irevent the dangerous delay to which re have alluded. In this appeal to the people to aid in uppresslng this great evil which has astened itself on our commerce and gricnlture, we C3n only refer to a 67* of its worst features. "Future :ambling,:' as it Is universally termed, ^as at present the protection of some of ur largest trade bodies. It is backed iyan unknown and vast amount of noney. It has invaded banking, comQerce and agriculture to such an exent that It is no aggeration to tate that more money is emiloyed Iq gambling in som8 of the xchanges in the cities than is employed n legitimate commerce. Its pernicious effects are so seriously elt that it Is a matter of grave doubt vhether the law of sapply and demand eguiates ;ine price ui leauiug agncui,ural products. To illustrate this we vould only tefer to one exchange. For nany years the New York Cotton Fxihange hss done little except to bet on he price of cotton. At this exchange n a single month the sales (bets) of Ictitlous cotton have reached the total >f the average crop of the United State. 8,000,000 bales, and in one year >ver 50,000,000 bales, while the sales of ictual cotton during the s?me year at Sew York were only 193,000 bales and ,he net receipfs of actual cotton at ;hat port 107,000 hales. Such bets canlot possibly aid in the rapid handling md delivering of cotton and in securng its manufacture ana sale to consumers. On the contrary, the effect ;an be nothing but evil,ana the longer tis permitted the greater the extent to vhich the evil will be carried. This is but a single illustration. If ;here was any way of presenting the ictual statistics of future gambling in ;otton, wheat,5,com, oats and other agricultural products in New York, Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans and other :i:ies, the showing would be such a me as to arouse the people all over the iepublic. The people are masters of ihe situa:lon, but tney must unite and act. When there is no longer reason to loubt the sentiment of the people their wishes will be enacted into Jaw, and ;hat law will be executed. Ia view of the foregoing we hereby nvlte all pirsons ia sympathy with ;he purposes of this convention to atend, and it is desired that all com iiuintles be epresented. Senators and Representatives from ;his and other States favorable to the movement are invited and expected. Arrangements have been made with ;ransportation lines for reduced rates. THE SOLID SOUTH BROKENNorth Carolina and MiseoarlCoea Back Oa CJ. Raleigh, Nov. 8.?Ia the absence ot the figures the following carefully prepared estimate may be relied upon as latest figures on the Populist'Fusiomst majorities. It must be noted that the present Associate Ju3t ce Walter Clark will keep bis seat as be ran on both tickets and got nearly alkthe votes cast.

The ' Slate and Judical ticket of the Fusionists is elected by several thousand. Mariou Butler, the Populist leader, claims 20,000. The Legislature cn joint ballot will probably be Fusion. Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 8 ?S?mi < flicial returns from nearly every county in the State iudicite that the Fusion t:cket, State, Judicial and legislative, put cut by the Republicans aud Populists is elected by some 20.000 mrj >rity. This 2ives them the State Treasurer, Chief Ju*t:c3 add two Associate Justices ol the Supreme C^urt and Qve Judges ol the Superior Court. Cblrman Butler of the Populists claims the State by 30,0C0 and says that the FusiODists will h&v* a msj ority cu ioiat ballot. This latter estimate is believed to be correct. Tuey wiU have the Senate by ten majority. It is not yet poBRibie to estimate their strength in the House. Only three Demecrt:c Cocgressmeu have been elected. Woodward in the Second; Shaw in the Third and Lcckhart in the Sxth. Crawford is defeated by Pearson in lbs Ninth by a very small majority. Missouri's big stump. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 8.?In the Congressional ficht D>ckery ot the Third, Tarsuey of the Firth and Cobb of the Twelfth are the or.l7 Democrats that have been elected on the ficeol returns. Hatch in the First District is clearly beaten by Ciark. Halieck in the Second, for whom ihere were strong hopes until now, ha3 surely gone dowa, Ellison m the Fourth and Heard in the Seventh are buried. Iq the Eighth ''Silver Dick" Bland's rural constituency hasgiv^n him the go-by in favor of Joel Hubbard, In the Ninth Champ Clark has been defeated by Treioar of Adriam, a school teacher, with protection tendencies. Bartholdt in the Tenth, Joy in the Eleventh and Rinney in the Thirteenth, swell the Republicans column. The "Swamp Angel" District of the S)utbeast where only Democrat* were supposed to live, have elected Mosely, the Republican candidate. For the first time in twenty-five years the Southeast has failed to come up rockribbed for the Democratic ticket. Counties which have never gone Republican since the ex-Confederates were restored to citizenship have elected the entire Republican ticket. Analysis of the vote as shown by returns received at Democratic headqurtera shows that no portion of the State has been exempt from fh? Hhakincrnn. It is ia3t as bad dowa alone; the Arkansas line as it i3 up on the Iowa border. The Mississippi River counties are as badly "slumped" as Is the tier which borders Kansas. Two jea3 ago the Democrats had ninty-two members in the lower house of the Legislature and the Republicans forty-eight. This time the Democrats and Populist3 combined will not be able to mu3ter more than a strong minority. Their Board Reduced. Columbia, S. C., Nov. 3.?Governor Tillman returned yesterday aiter? noon from Clemson College where he has been attending the annual meeting of the directors of that institution. The r>oard, in addition to preparing its annual reports tor the Legislature, decided on a number of important matters. It will be good news to the poor boys of the Slate who are ambitions to attend Clemson and who are deterred bet cause of the lack of finances to know that the Trustees reduced the price oi board from $7 a month to $6, to take effect.from the next session, wniCQopaas in February. This is cheaper than at any institution of the kind in the United States. -The Trustees think price of board can b permanently kepi at 16 a month. The students will be given the same bill of fare as now and will be allowed all they want to eat. The Trustees will call on the Legislature for an appropriation to aid the college next year. It has not been decided what will be asked for but it may be somthing like $30,000. This appropriation will be necessary for several reasons. One is that the loss of the main building by fire "this summer entailed a serious loss on the college. Another is that the insitutlon has spent a great deal of money this year in completing the various Duildings which are absolutely necessary to the successful carrying oul of the work to be done. Still anothei reason is that the income from fertilizer lags next year Is expected to be very mnch reduced. This is because the low price of cotton has put the farmers in such a condition that they will buy little fertiliser next year. The present session of the college has been shortened. It was to end Decern ber 20 but the board provided for its ending on 30th of this month. The reason for this is that ihe heating facilities are meagre so far and the boarc doe3 not care to take the risks of sub iecting the studeDt3 to the results cf ex "posure. By the time the next session opens, in February, the betting facilities Will be impr?ved. The work of rebuilding the main build lag is progressing satisfactorily, and ins building will be ready for use In Fib ruary. The anno \I contests of tbe Calbout Society of the college were held on Thurs day aignt, and Governor Tillman ex presses himielf as delighted with the spiendia fthowiag made the boys.
