Returns from California are incomplete but indicate tho election of 5 Republicans and 1 Democrat to Congress, a loss of ono Democrat, Tho Legislature is Republican on joint ballot, which insures tbo ro-election of Senator Stanford.

Colorado. The vote is close on the Stato ticket, but probably Republican. Tho Republicans return tho member of Con gress and have tho Legislature, securing tho ro-election of Senator Toller. Connecticut, The result in Connecticut is not pos itively ascertained on Governor.

The Democrats elect both Congressmen and the Legislatuso stands 99 Democrats and I Republican. Georgia The delegation from Georgia Is solid, 10 Democrats.

This election In Idaho took place last monttb and the Republicans elected the Conressman and the Legislature, w.hAh will choose two Republloan United States Senators.

ft Illinois. Illinois furnished one ot the great inrprises of the day. The Democrats carried the State on the State officers voted for by an average majority of and elected 14 out of the 80 Congressmen, tho delegation standing 14 Democrats and 0 Republ cans. In the present Congress tho delegation is Democrats and 13 Republicans.

Iniil l. The Democrats carried In liana by over and elected 11 Democrats and 2 Republicans to Congross, a Democratic gan of I member. The Legislature is largely Democratic, which insures tbe re-election of Hon. D. W.

Voorhees to tbe United States Senate. loWH. Iowa elects 6 Democrats and 5 Republicans to Congress, a not Democratic gain of 5 members. The official count may change this result Tho Republicans elect the State officers by a small plurali ty. probably 3, 000.

Nevada gives the usual Republican majorty. That party elects the Congressman. Xfir Hampshire. Tho contest was interesting and close in New Hampshire. Roth parties claim the Legislature.

The Democrats claim a majority on joint ballot, which is not conceded by the Republicans. Undoubtedly a number of contests will have to be decided by the courts. The contest Is all the more interesting because a Senator is to be elected to succeed Senator Itlalr. Both Congressmen are Democrats, a Democratlo gain of two. New Jersey.

New Jersey elects 5 Democrats and Republicans to Congress, a Democratlo gain of 2 members. The Legislature is largely Democratic in both bousos, and 37 on joint ballot. New York.

Grant was elected by over 21,000 majority.

Tho contest in the State for the Legislature was very warm and tho result almost, if not quite a drawn battle. The first returns made the Legislature a. tio on joint ballot but the Democrats later claimed the elect. on of a member in a strict at first reported to havo ru turned a Republican, and therefore giv ng them a majority on jointballot. It will roqu re th official count to decide thequostlon.

Tbe Leg-islature chooses Senator Evarts' successor. Tho Congressional delegation for tbe State consists of 21 Democrats and 13 Republicans, a Democratic gain of five. Xortli Carolina.

The Democrats elected 14 and tho Republicans 7 members of Congress, a Domocratic gain of nine.

McKlnley, the author of tho tariff bill, was defeated by about 250 votes. Tbe State Leg-ls'ature had redistricted the State and put McKiuleyin a strong Domocratio d'Btrict but be succeeded In reducing the majority over 2,003 votes. Ex-Governor Foster was also defeated by his Democratic opponent Oregon. The Republicans carried Oregon, electing the Congressman and the Legislature. Pennsylvania.

The Keystor.j State a'so showed somewhat a political revolution. Pat-tison, Democrat, carried the election for Governor by a of near over Dela mater.

The Republicans elect IS and the Democrats 10 morn bo rs of Congress, a Domocratic gain of three. lihode Inland.

The Democrats elected Lapham from tho rst district in Rbode Island, and while the Democratic cand date in the Second strict led his Republican op- ponent, be failed to receive a clear ma-I jority. Ahich Is necessary to elect, and a second ballot is necessary. This is a Democratlo gain, as Raode Island elected two Republican, to tha present IDsa C3 d-C3 fjVaW 11 Virginia. The vote in Virginia showed vory heavy Democratic majorities, tho State sending an unbroken Domocratio delegation of 10 members to Congress, a gain of two. Wisa, of tho Third district who was unseated in the presont Congress, was returned without opposition, and Langston, tho colored Republican from tho Fourth district, vho was soated in his contest with Veuablo, was dofoatod for a re-election, bis opponent elected by 2,000 majority.

W'nithiiigtnn. Washington goes Republican by a safe majority, returning ono member of Congress. West Virginia, West Virginia Democrats carried the Legislature and elect 4 Democrats to Congress by good majorities, a gain of two, two of bor members having boon unseated by the Fifty-first Congress and two Republican contestants admitted. Wisconsin. Wisconsin furnishes a surprise also, a W.

Book, Democrat (he of Peok'a Bad Boy fame) carries the State by a reported majority of 30,000, and the Democrats have both branches of the Legislature and will, therefore, eleot a successor to United States Sonator Spooner. The Democrats eleot 8 Congressmen and tho Republicans 1, a gain of six. Wyoming1. This is a new State and held her election some time ago, one Congressman being elected Itecxpltulatlon, From the foregoing report it appear! that the next House will consist of 232 Democrats, 91 Republicans, 7 Alllanoe and 1 Alliance Democrat with one district (the Second Rhode Island) in which there was no election at the first ballot The members from Georgia, South Carolina nnd several other Southern States that were supported by the Alliance are classified as Domoorats, and hence tho actual All anoo vote in the next House does not appoar in tho general summary. Tho returns indicate tho election of two Alliance United States Senators before the 4tti of March, ono from South Dakota and ono from Kansas, The returns also forshadow tho election of Democratic Senators in Now York, Wisconsin, Mich gan and Illinois to Boats at present hold by Repub loans.

If this turns out to bo the final result it will reduce the Republican majority in the Senate from 14 to 2 after the 4th of March. THANKSGIVING DAY. Call of the President Cor Prayer, I'ralse and Charity. Washington, Nov. 11.
