THREE DISTRICTS ARE IN DOUBT, One Is In Tennessee and Two In Cali fornia Official Returns Will Be Nec essary to Decide the Result—Other DU.: let News. Washington. Xov. C.—The latest re. tains shew that the Republicans—in- cludin;.;- in this description the fusion- Is'ts eie.-tcj from the Pittsburg-Alle- -gheny distri ts in Pennsylvania—will control the iioaI house by a vote :t £04 Republicans to 170 Democrats, with thioe uistiicts—-the eight Ten nessee and two California districts— remaininit so much in doubt that the ■olik-bil returns will he needed to de cide the ivsuJt. The totals given are believed to l»o correct, although there are tt few districts, such as two in Colorado and one in Minnesota, where the Republican and Democratic party mana/.'is, respectively, do not con cede uefeat, but the general result could not be affected, even should their •claims prove well founded. DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY 67,000. North Ciroiina Elects Solid Congres sional Delegation. Charlotte, N. C., Nov. 6.—Th^ ninth congressional district gives E. Y. Webb, Democrat, 5,000 majority over Hiss, the Republican. The full state ticket is elected by a majority comput ed at 07,000, and North Carolina re turns ten congressmen, a solid Dem ocratic delegation. The Democrats carried every coun ty in the state save four in the moun tain districts, and these show small Republican majorities. The four are Allegheny, Surry, Henderson and Wilkes. The Democratic congressmen elect ed are: First district, John H. Small; second district, Claud Kltchin; third, Charles R. Thomas; fourth, Edward W. Pou: fifth, W. W. Kithin; sixth, Gilbert B. Patterson; seventh, Robert N. Page; eighth, Theo F. Kluttz; ninth, E. Yates Webb; tenth, James M. Gud- ger. Jr. Page, Webb and Gudger are new men. The others have served one or more terms. The election In this state was the quietest on record. There will be no contests in any county or district. , The Democrats elect the chief Jus tice and two associate Justices, super intendent of public instruction, rail road commissioner and 14 out of 15 superior court judges, 10 congressmen and the legislature will he seven- eights Democratic. This means that a Democrat will replace Senator Pritchard. PARDEE WINS IN CALIFORNIA. Latest .Election Returns Give Him 6,500 Plurality for Governor. San Francisco, Nov. 6.—The latest election returns indicate the success of Dr. Pardee, the Republican candidate for governor, by a plurality of about 6,000. His opponent, F. K. Lane, has stated that he will contest the an nounced result. Tne count of the vote for the con gressional nominees, so far as com pleted, indicates that five Republicans, two labor union Democrats, and one straight Democrat will represent Cali fornia in the lower house of congress. The successful Republicans are Oil- lett, In the first; Metcalf in the third, Needham in the sixth, McLachlan in the seventh and Daniels in the eighth district. Livernash and Wynne, la bor union nominees, have won in the fourth and fifth, but the former’s elec tion probably will be contested by Ju lius Kahn, the present incumbent. Late Colorado Returns. Denver, Nov. 6.—Nearly complete re turns show that the Republicans have elected their entire state ticket with the possible exception of superinten dent of schools and two oi the three congressmen, and that the Democrats will have a majority of 16 to 18 on joint ballot In the legislature unless the Re publicans obtain control of the lower house and unseat the entire Arapaho county delepation. The Republican leaders frankly announce that they will carry out that program If It be In their power. Shirat Wins Over Graham. Pittsburg, Nov. 6.—Complete re turns give Shlras Fusion Republican for congress, twenty-ninth district, 25 majority over Graham (Rep.), Odell’s Plurality 11,262.

Houston of Fulton and Kilbum Re sign Labor Committee. Atlanta, Nov. 6.—Quite a little sensation was sprung Quite a little sensation was sprung In the house yesterday by the resig nation first of Mr. Houston, of Fulton, and then Mr. Kilbum, of Bibb, born the committee on labor and labor statis tics. Both members, who are strong labor organization men, positively re fused to serve with the committee in any manner whatever. No reason was given for this action on the ficor of the house, though Mr. Houston said he would state his rea sons later on. Mr. Houston gave out a brief interview, however, in which he stated that his action was due to the fact that the committee had been selected with a view to bringing in an adverse report on the child labor bill. The general tax bill Introduced in th<j house yesterday by Mr. Reid of Camp bell, chairman of the ways ami means committee, contemplates a number ol interesting changes in the general scheme of taxation, particularly iu the taxation of a number of businesses or callings which have not been taxed heretofore. One of the most Interesting features in the bill is the taxing of i>ool sellers or “bookies," as they are known in the vernacular, and of midways to an ex tent which, if approved by the legis lature and made a law, will probably do away with both of these attractions at state and interstate fairs. Another feature of the bill is a dou ble or a triple license tax on pawn brokers according to their methods o! doing business. Another new feature of the hill is that which puts a special tax of $200 on every foreign corporation, not spe cifioally named In the bill, which opens a branch office in the state. Among the Important bills intro duced in the house yesterday were two by Mr. Carswell, of Wilkinson, provid ing for certain changes in the pension laws which were strongly recommend ed hv Pension Commissioner J. W. Lindsay. One of these hills provides for a spe cial pension examiner in each congres sional district in the state, who shall be paid a salary of $500 a year from v e state treasury. It shall be the ex aminer’s duty to examine all applica tions for pensions under the disability pension law and report on their condi tion before the name of such applicant can be placed on the pension rolls. The other bill provides for the ap pointment of a commission to prepare a roster of all the soldiers, sailors and marines from Georgia who took part in the war between the states between 1861 and 1865. This list is much needed for the guidance of the pension commissioner and would be valuable as well from a historical standpoint. MACON MAN KILLS HIMSELF.

PERSONNEL OF THE ARMY. Lieutenant General Makes His Annua! Report—Necessity of Quarters For Troops—Condition of Indians—Prac tice Scnuois. Washington, Nov. 6.—Th^ annual re port of Lieutenant Geneial Miles, com manding the army, is a brief review o£ the reports that have been submitted to him by other officers. He indorses the recommendation of General Brooks fbr a readjustment of the geographical limits of the different departments with a view of equalizing conditions. General Miles calls attention to the ne cessity of quarters for troops, saying that while hundreds of thousands of dollars are being spent for quarters for cavalry, very little is being used to affoid shelter lor artillery, which is exposed to severe climates al mg the coasts. “These troops,” says General Miles, “are required to be located adjacent to the fortifications, notwithstanding the exposed positions of many of them, and I see no reason why buildings should not be constructed in time to be occupied when it is known for years where their services will re re quired.” Baldwin’s Troops Complimented. General Miles says: “During the past year there have been no serious engagements, excent that of the troops under General F. D. Baldwin, in Mindanao, P. I., with the Moros. For the number of men en gaged, this was a very spirited and desperate engagement. Our forces were commanded by one of the most experienced and efficient officers of the army, whose conduct has always been of the highest order, and his achievement, together with that of thj troops, in this engagement made an other chapter of fortitude, tenaoi y and heroic service in the history of American arms. “The condition of the Indians •? qub' 1 rre has been no dimuiui.. . _ L*.nce among them during the last 12 months. This is accounted for principally by three 'reasons: “1. Just and humane treatment of the Indian and judicious management of their affairs. “2. Their gradual transition from a condition of barbarism to that of a semi-civilized people. “3. The close proximity of the mili tary garrisons, which are always avail, able in case of threatened disturban ces. Best School of Practice. “The experience during the great civil war and years of campaigning along our weetern frontier, afforded the best schools of practice for our army In former years. The attention given to calisthenics, gymnastics an-I other exercises in the army corps made our small army a corps of athletas while the elementary schools establish ed for enlisted men, the post libraries, the post lyceums and officers’ schools, the various schools of instruction an 1 practice for officers as well as the mil itary academy, produced an army of such excellence that I was able in my report in 1896 to state: “The personnel of the army was never In better condition.” “’ims was proven to be true by the fortitude, skill and heroism displayed In every sen Ions campaign on every field ol mortal combat wherever tha army has bon engaged In any part of the world during the last four years. During that time many changes have occurred and the army has been large ly increased. The long and varied service of the senior officers, their experience in organizing, discipling, in structing and leading their commands, as well as the excellent discipline, in struction and exemplary conduct of tTia soldiers of the army of ’98 have been the leaven of the array of the presort time. Evils may creep Into any sys tem or great organization. Such as have affected our army have been, or will be eradicated.” FRENCH STRIKE SITUATION. Miners Greatly Dissatisfied at the Ar bitration Decision. Paris, Nov. 6.—The striking coal miners are showing great dissatisfac tion at the arbitration decision against a raise in the rate of wages and their national committee has called meet ings to take place at Arrias, depart ment of Pas de Calais, Saturday to de termine on the course to follow.

Get the Most Out of Your Food You don’t and can’t if your stomach is wea’;. A weak stoi. ach does not di gest all that is ordinarily taken into it. It gets tired easily, and what it fails to digest is wasted. Among the signs of a weak stomach are uneasiness after eating, fits of ner vous headache, and disagreeable belch ing. “I have taken Hood’s Sarsaparilla at different times fur stonmeh troubles, and a run down condition of the system, and have been greatly benefited by its use. I would not be without it in my family. I am trou bled especially in summer with weak stom ach and nausea and find Hood’s Sarsaparilla invaluable.” K. B. Hickman, W.Chester, Pa.
