New York, Nov 7.-Ex Gov Stone
of Missouri had bis statement made ont
early today, io which he reviewed the
election of yesterday lt is as follows :
"The battle is over The Demo
eratic party of the coaotry accepts the
result without complaining, as to duty
bound It signifies bat little now to
aoalyzB the influences as to toe cause
tbat brought about the result There
will be a wide divergeoce of opinion as
to tbat. This I will say, however,
that the Democratic party must stand
and will stand, undismayed in defense
of the constitution and for tbe prefer
vatioo unimpaired of our constitution.
A colonial policy would be destructive
of the republic aod we should re.-ist
every effort to establish it I have
always favored the annexation, in a
proper way, of tbe islands adjaceot to
oar coast, Out have oppoeed tbe annex?
ation of a large domain io tbe eastern
hemisphere for reasons fully staled dur
ing'the oampaigo.
"The Democratic party mast stand
firm in the defense of the constitution I
while at the same time it should take
an advanced and progressive position
lookiog to the development and proteo
tion of our maritime and commercial
interests. The Missouri Demooratic
platform of 1898 expressed my views
on the politioal questions of the day.
These questions are for future d?9cus
sioo, however ; ali I say now is what 1
have said maoy times before, that tbe
Democratic p?ny mast be affirmative
aod progressive as well as aggressive.
"Mr Bryan made a great fight. He
is one of the most remarkable men of
history. He may never be president,
bat whether io politiots or private life
no mao will bold a more commanding,
place, and none will be capable of ex
ertiog a greater influence for public
good. May God bless bim "

eastern headquarters of the Republican
congressional committee, tonight said
that bis retorna and tbe press dis
patches indioated that the Republicans
would have 203 members in tbe next
hease of. representatives, against 154
for the opposition.
At tbe headquarters of the Demo?
cratic congressional committee, Mr.
Kerr, the secretary, denied the claims
made by tbe Republicans to a majority
from 40 to 50 io the next boase. He
says tbat tbe information he has re?
ceived makes it eertaio that tbe Demo
I crats will have at least 166 members,
with the prospects of ooe or two more
seats which are still io doubt leaving
tbe Republicans a majority co the face
of present advices
Cbatraao Richardson refused te give
oat any statement oo the general re j
salt, merely sayiog be did not wish toi
talk at this time. i
Wi?miogton, Del. Nov 7 -A riot

Result Still io Doubt-Fusion
Legislature Seems Likely.
Liooolo, Neb, Nov 7 -Democratic
National Committeeman Dahlman this
afternoon stated that the Nebraska
legislature will be fusion bj ll major?
ity ; that the fusion State ticket is
elected bj about 5,000 majority, and
that Bryan electors win bj 15.000 Re?
publicans are inclined to concede the
legislature on the face of the present
returns, bot allege fraud in Douglass
country and Omaha and will contest.
So far the returns show gains io tbe
legislature of 16 members for the fu
sionists over two years ago.
Omaha. Nov 7 -Election retaros in
Nebraska are so olose as to be watched
keenly. Chairman Lindsay for the Re
publicans claims tonight that McKinley
carries the State by 7,000 or more,
the Republican State ticket wins by
5.000 to 7,000and that the Republicans
have a majoritj of 17 io the legislature
Against this the Democrats claim
Bryan carried the State, though by a
carrow margin ; that fusion has a safe
working majority in the legislature,
and that the fusion State offioers are
eleoted by 3,000 to 5,000. The legis?
lature will be in doubt until complete
returns are in. indications are that ic
will be fusion by a ismall majority.
Both parties are claiming to lead on
joint ballot.
Hanna's Statement,
Cleveland, 0., Nov 7.-Senator
Hanna this evening gave Tbe Asso?
ciated Press the followiog statement on
the result of yesterday's election :
"The result is more than satisfactory.
lt expresses a continued confidence in
the administration aBd thc party which
is oertaioly gratifying to all republicans
and friends of this administration. I)
assures the con tin aa ose of present pros?
perons condition. It is a triumph of
the principles of good government over
Bryanism, which is tho produot of a
combination of elements of irresponsibil?
ity, instability and incompetency. It
strengthens the very foundations of the
government. Ic. is a rebuke of the
demagoguery of the campaign of the
opposition, and a clear, cool diagnosis
of a situation which was for a time
clouded by their methods of evasicD
aod misrepresentation. Above all it
gives to every American absolute confi?
dence io the good judgment of the
people and their readiness aod ability
to protect their own interests by decid?
ing aright those great questions which
of necessity come.np in a government
by the people.
"While in the main our predictions
have been fulfilled, I may say that io
many eases our expectations have been
exoeeded. As yet final results cannot,
of coarse, be known, bat some of the
States which were considered doubtful
are surely republican and some which
seemed safely democraiio are doubtful,
with possibility of being republican
M A Hannah
How Senate Will Stand.
Washington, Nov 7.-The next sen?

will fulfill their duty and choose senators
to represent their States will stand, on
the baits of yesterday's election, 49
republicans, 27 democrats and 9 inde?
pendents, with the legislatures in doubt
io three States with the privilege cf
I electing five senators at this time. The
legislatures io doubt are Delaware and
Nebraska in each of which States two
senators are to be chosen and Idaho with
one senatorial chair to be filled.

New York, Nov. 8.-i e a result
of messages received at Republican
national headquarters today by Na
tional Committeemen J R Manley
and N B. Scott from doubtful points,
Mr Manley gave out the following
statement :
"Full returns today lesve the situa?
tion as it was yesterday We have
won by 308 electoral votes We
have carried every northern State,
but Colorado. Nevada and Montaoa
with ten votes We have carried
Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware and
West Virginia. As we predicted
during the entire campaign they are
attempting to rob us of the electoral
votes m Kentucky under the power
of the Goebel law. If tbey succeed
we shall have 195 electoral votes.
Ocr candidate for governor wires
that we have carried Kentucky for
the electoral ticket and elected him
by over 7.000 majority The time
bas come when the American people
ought to insist at whatever cost tbat
tbe votes shall be counted as they
were honestly cast "
Senator Scott in answer to tele?
grams inquiring as to the result in
Nebraska, received the following
dispatch from E Rosewater, mern
ber of the national advisory com
mittee, who is a candidate for the
United States senatorship from
Nebraska :
"Returns from tbe rural districts
incomplete but no doubt whatever
that McKinley carries Nebraska by
not less than 3,000 Governorship

publicans. Both houses of legisla
ture will be Republican by small
majority "
NO DOUBT ABOUT KENTUCKY.
Louisville.Ky, Nov 8.-With returns
from all but 30 out of 1,884 precincts
rin Kentucky, the Courier Journal
puts Bryan's majority at 8.000 and
Beckham's at 5,000. Tbe missing
preoioots have been taken into account
io this result. The republicans now
claim that majorities will be shown fer
McKinley and Yerkes when the return
ing board canvasses the vote at Frank?
fort, which it will do three weeks from
election day. The returniog board is
democratic and thc legislature is also
democratic Ex-Gov Jas B. McCrary,
who managed the democratic campaign,
tonight closed the headquarters and will
tomorrow returo to bis home at Riob
mood. He said tonight that he had
heard from campaign chairmen in
every county in the State, and tbat
with all of tbe republican claims ic the
eleventh district, be placed the majori?
ties of Bryan and Beckham respectively
at 8.000 at 5,000.
The Louisville Commercial, republi?
can, will tomorrow say the election is
"very close." It will nor? concede the
defeat of Yerkes and tho McKinley
eleotors and will say that the official
count only can determine the result.
KENTUCKY'S ?NOFFCIAL RE?
TURNS.

Louisville, Ky., Nov. 9.-With
unofficial returns from every precioct
io Keotucky, the Courier-Jonrnal
puts Bryan's majority at 7,635 and
Beckham's st 4,110 The county
boards canvassed the returns in every
county in the State today, aod 50
out of the 119 from which official re |
turns have been received tonight did
not materially change the majorities
stated There is no doubt that the
full official returns will vary some
what from the unofficial figures It
is hardly possible that the majorities
of 7,635 and 4,110 will be wiped out,
however, unless the unexpected shall
happen in the counties where the
official returns are not in
BRYAN CLAIMS NEBRASKA.
Chioago, Nov 8 -A telegram was
received at Democratic national head?
quarters today from W. J. Bryao, stat
iog tbat tbe Democratic national ticket
carried Nebraska by a majority of 2,000
aod the Stats ticket by 4,000 and that
tbe next legislature will be Democratic.
McKinley Carried Nebraska
Omaha, Nov. 9 -Almost complete
returns give McKinley a plurality in
Nebraska of over 6,000. The Re?
publican State ticket is apparently
elected by from 1,500 to 2,000. The
Republicans elect congressmen in
the First and Second districts, the
fueioniets in the Third. Fourth, Fifth
and Sixth districts. The legislature,
the returns on which are not yet re?
turned, will probably stand :
Senate-Republicans, 16 ; Fusion

House-Republicans, 51 : Fusion- 1

Why the Republicans Won.
Mr Bryan Makes a State*
mont Concerning Election
Result.
Lincoln, Neb, Nov 8.-Wm J.
Bryan tonight gave oat tbe following
statement concerning the election :
"The result was a surprise to me,
and the magnitude of the Republioaoi
victory was a surprise to our opponents
as well as to those who voted our ticket.
It is impossible to analyze the returns
until they are more complete, but
speaking generally, we seem to have
gained in the large cities and to have
lost in the smaller cities and in the
country
"The Rs publican s were able to
secure tickets or passes for all their
voters who were away from home, and
this gave them considerable advantage.
We have no way of knowing at this
time bow much money was spent in the
purchase of votes and in colonization
But while these would acoount for some
of the Republican gains, they eould
riot aeoount for tbe widespread increase
in the Republican vote The prosper?
ity argument was probably the most
potent one used by the Republicans.
They oompared present conditions with
the panie times of 1893 to 1896 and
this argument bad weight with those
who did not stop to consider the reasons
for the change. Tho appeal, 'Stand*
by the president while the war is on,
had a great deal of influence among
those who did not realize that a war
against a doctrine of self-government
in the Philippines must reset upon us
in this country. We made an honest
fight upon an honest platform, and
having done our duty as we saw it, we
have nothing to regret.
"We are defeated but not dis
couraged The fight must go on I am
sure that Republican policies will be re?
pudiated by the people whoo the ten?
dency of these policies are fully under?
stood. The contest between plutocracy
and democracy oacuot end until
one or the other is completely triumph?
ant ?
Concerning himself Mr Bryan said :
''I have come out of the campaign
with perfect health and a olear con?
science. I did my most to bring sue
cess to the principles for which I stood.
Mr Stevenson did all that he could i
Senator Jones and the members of the
Democratic, Populist, Silver Republi?
cans and Anti Imperialism committees
did all they could* Mr Hearst and bis
associates in the club organization pot
forth their best efforts. Our newspa
per?, our campaign speakers and our
local organization did their part also.
I have no fault to fiod and no re?
proaches. I shall continue to take an
active interest in politics as long as I
live. I believe it to be the duty of
citizens to do so, and io addition to my
interest as a citizen, I feel that it will
require a life tims of work to repay the
political friends who have done so much
for me. I shall not be a senatorial
candidate before the legislature which
bis been elected. Senator Allen de?
serves the senatorship wbiob goes to
the Populists. Mr Hitoboook and Mr
W H Thompson are avowed candi?
dates for the other senatorship. They
both deserve well of the party, and I
am tqo grateful tc them for past sup?
port to stand in their way eve a if I
desired a seat in the senate/1
Mr Bryan said he had no other plans
at prsent than to remain at borne until
be bad recovered from the fatigue of
campaigning. He denied the report
that be would remove from Nebraska
and make Texap bis borne.
That Pendulum-Didn't Swinfc.
Democrats were banking heavily
upon the long established precedent
that New York's vote swings like a
pendulum bgtween the two parties in
alternate campaigns, and that Indiana
baa always gone tbe same way. It
was shown that for many campaigns
this had been an unfailing rule, and
it was now democracy's torn to have
the pendulum swing its way.
But the peddalum didn't swing
For tbe first time since 1864 the
role has failed, and for the first time
in all these years the republicans
have carried New York io two soc
cessive presidential campaigns. The
following table from the New York
World shows the pluralities in New
York State and the old city, now
Manhattan and Bronx Boroughs, in
each of the las!; eleven presidential

Republicans of
Kentucky Contest
Charge tbe Democrats With
Fraud all Over tbe State.
Louisville, Ky., Nov-Republi?
can Chairman leslie Comba announced
bis purpose today to contest the electo?
ral vote of the Sute aod io see that
congressional contests are ios ti tu ted bj
the defeated candidate? in the Third?
Ninth and Tenth districts.
Mr. Combs said : "There is no ques?
tion that Yerkes carried the State by &
substantial plurality of votes cast, it
will take the officia] count to show hov
maoy ballots were not counted by the
prearranged plans of the.- Democrats to
redooe the Yerkes voto. When it is
realised that 10 votes io the precicot
makes over 18,000 votes in the State
it can readily be seen thal this number
of votes oould have been seiaed by the
Democratic party io each precinct with?
out affecting public opinion by the open
ruffianism and disregard of appearances
whioh controlled their action in 1899.
The thefts of this year .are, io my opin?
ion, greater than last year. I desire
to make no fictitious contests, bat if the
facts are DOW as. we believe we will coo*
