Hore Complete Returns Show That
the Democratic Candidate Did Not
Make as Qocd a Run as He Did
Twelve Years Ago.
New York, Special. Practically
Complex-1 leiuma tea'iYBU up iu u
late hou r Saturday night indicate
that William n. Aaii, oi umo, as
president-elect, will have a vote of
5 399 in the electoral college. This is
within 10 votes of the forecast made
by Naticnai ChairmaD Frank H.
Hitchcock and 67 more than a ma
jority out of the total electoral vote
of 483.
The most important news of the
late returns indicates that Maryland,
after1 vacillating during the day and
apparently being safe for the
Democracy, has been swung into the
Taft column. The unofficial figures
give Mr. Taft the State by 136 votes.
I i T T T i T 1 r II J" A. JS rf-V I
Maryland was the last oi the douDt
ful States to be heard from. Indiana
and West Virginia as well as Mon
tana, turned out to be safely Repub
lican. Colorado went for Bryan.
Mr. Bryan has a total of 174 votes,
two less than he received in 1896.
In 1904 Mr. Parker received only
140 votes, in 1900 Mr. Bryan receiv
ed 155 votes and in 1S96 the Nebras
kan received 176 votes.
Mr. Taft's 309 electoral votes com
pared with 336 received by Roose
velt in 1904, 292 received by MeKin-
lev in 1900 and 271 received by Mc-
Kinley ki 1S96.
Republicans Retain Control.
No changes of material ' interest
have been . reported in the congres
sional returns. The Republicans will
have about the same working major
ity in the Sixty-first Congress as at-
present, and Joseph G. Cannon, of
Illinois, undobtedly will succeed him
self as Speaker. Representatives
Jesse Overstreet, of Indiana, and
Hapburn, of Iowa, are the most con
spicuous among those who have failed
of re-election.
The Senate retains its Republican
complexion, although there will be
a material change in the personnel of
the upper body of the national legis
lature.
National Chairman Norman E
Mack, of the Democratic party issued
a statement in which he declared that
he did not believe Mr. Bryan would
again be a candidate for the presiden
cy. He said he believed that the Ne
braskan might be a candidate for the
United States Senate in 1911, pro
video the Legislature of his State is
Democratic in that year, when the
hrst vancancv will occur.
The latest returns indicate that in
tto national House of Representa
tivcs the Rermblicans will have 208
members and the Democrats 172, with
eleven districts missing.
The "Result in New York.
Judge Taft's plurality in the State
or JSew York, according to corrected
returns is' 20,495, more than 2S.000
m exeess of President Roosevelt's
phiralitv of -four vears ago. Gov
Charles E. 'Hughes was re-elected in
ew ork State by 71,159. The re
turns as between President and Gov
enior indicate a heavv solittinsr o
tickets.
The heavy vote in Ohio made fig
ures extraordinarily late owing to the
immense -size 'of the ballot. Mr. Taft
carried hi3 own-State, however, by
50,000 plurality, a reduction of moro
than 2Q,000 from the Roosevelt vote
of four" years ago. The Democratic
State ticket:; in -Ohio, headed by Jud
son Harmon for Governor, appears to
be safel elected. Tie State Legisla
ture, which is.lo cjhoose a successor to
Senator Joseph B. Foraker, appears
to bo ip- doubt as- between the Re
publicans and Democrats.
, In Indiana Mr. Taft was successful
in carrying the State by about 8,900,
"'t the entire Democratic State tick
et headed,. hy' Mr: Marshall for Gover
nor, was elected. The congressional
delegation from the State shows a
'am of seven Democrats. .., .
The returns from West Virginia,
owing to the mountainous charactei
of the country, are .'slow' in- coming in.
A sufficient number of counties and
districts have been heard from, how
ler, to show that Mr. Taft has a
safe plurality.
Colorado early in the day shifted
from the doubtful column to the
Bryan list. The Legislature, which
Vs to choose a successor to Senator
leller, also is apparently Democratic.
Mr. Bryan's victory in his home
1 tate of Nebraska was a sweeping
one. Five of Nebraska's six con

hearty expression to the gratification
he felt on his election as President
of the United States. Business, labor
and agriculture, he declared, had sup

should be also
the 'success of the
country if his
ability and endeavor
could make it so
" Please say that I am perfectly
healthy but tired," was the message
Judge Taft wished uttered for him-
With Mrs. Taft he has enjoyed the
pleasant household of the C. P. Taft
family mansion, going forth only
once, and then to receive- the plaudits
of thousands of his fellow townsmen
as they lined the streets and filled
the windows for blocks in the line of
march of the parade of the Wood
ward High School pupils, faculty and
trustees. Mr. Taft made the princi
pal address at the corner stone lay
ing of the new building of this
school, from which he graduated
when a boy. The function gave the
city an pporunity to pay its first
daylight tribute to the President
elect. Judge Taft did not refer to
the election or politics in his address,
but confined himself to the history
of the school, which held for him
many fond memories.

O. Henry's Promise.
O. Henry, the well known story
Writer, once promised the editor of
a magazine that he would deliver a
short story to him on the follow
ing Monday. Several Mondays pass
ed, but the muse, was refractory and
the story was not forthcoming. At
last the wrathful editor wrote this
note:
"My Dear O. Henry: If I do not
receive that story :wm you by 12
o'clock today, . I am going to put on
my heaviest soled shoos, ccme down
to your house, and kick you down
stairs. I always keep my promises.-
Whereupon C. Henry sal down and
wrote tbi3 characteristic reply:
"Dear Sir: I, too, would ireep my
promises, if I could fulfil tkem with
my feet." Success Magazine.

EX-SEN. CARMACK KILLED
Meeting on a Public Thoroughfare in
Nashville Duncan Cooper and His
Son, Robin, Open Fire on Fomer
United States Senator Edward W.
Carmack.
Nashville, Tenn., Special. As a se
quel to the recent bitter Democratic
primary for the gubernatorial nomi
nation in Tennessee, Hon. Edward
Ward JCarmack, former United States
Senator from Tennessee, was shot and
killed in a street duel here Monday
afternoon by Robin Cooper, a young
attorney. Young Cooper was wound
ed in the shoulder by a bullet from
Carmack 's revolver and is under po
lice surveillance in a local hospital.
His condition is not serious.
Carmack was wounded three times,
in the neck, the breast and the left
shoulder. Colonel Duncan B. Coop
er, father of the young man, was
with his son during the affray but did
not fire a shot. It is said he stood by
with pistol in hand. He is detained
at police headquarters. The direefc
cause of the killing is a recent series
of editorials in The Tennessean; a
daily paper of which Mr. Carmack
became editor after his defeat for
the nomination for Governor. The
editorials in question had been vigor
ous in their coment on Colonel Coop
er and his alleged connection with
what Mr. Carmack termed the "Dem
ocratic machine" and its methods..
Colonel Cooper, who is well known in
business, newspaper and political cir
cles in Tennessee and the South, had,
it is said, notified Mr. Carmack that
the references to him must cease.
Another such editorial appeared Mon
day morning.
The meeting of the men was at
close range, and the ex-Senator fell
dead at the first volley.
