This Is not subject to muoh variation, but ,the official count in several disU'iots, notably In Nevada, Nebraska, Kentucky and North Caro lina, may increase or diminish this •lightly. From appearances at present the total representation of each party in the lower house of the Fifty-fourth congress will be: Republicans, 245 democrats, 1011 populists, 10. Arizona has elected N. O. Murphy, republican delegate to congress. This makes the body of the territorial delegates: Republicans, 8 democrat, 1.
Populists Claim Texas.
AUSTIN, Tex., Nov. 9.—Every return throughout the state shows phenomenal populist gains, and may possibly lndioate the election of Nugent, the populist nominee for governor. The state is now olaimed by both parties. The populists claim a plurality of 80.000 for Nugent, while the democrats only claim the state for Culberson by 80,000. The democratic strongholds have been heard from, while the popu11Bts are yet to reoeive returns from the oountry districts.

NABHTILX.*, Tenn., Nov. 9.—The governorship is still in doubt, boththe republicans and democrats claiming the victory. Seventy counties heard from officially and unofficially give Evans (rep.) 8,000 majority. Of the counties yet to be heard from it is conceded that they are about evenly divided. It looks very much as if Evans wan elected, but the result can only be learned by the official count The legislature is safely democratic.

DKS MOINES, Iowa, Nov. 9.—The plur ality for McFarland (rep.) candidate for secretary of state foots up 72,269. Tlio offioial count will change this a little as a few of the county pluralities are estimated.
Two Democrats from i'ennsylvanla. PuiLAriEi.pniA, Nov. 9.—The official count in the four counties comprising the Eighth congressional district which was completed late Wednesday night shows that Hart (dem.) is eleot ed by 107 majority over Kirkpatrlck (rep.).

OLNEY ON ORGANIZED LABOR.
He Says Men Should Mot Be Discharged for Belonging to Unions. PBR.ADCI.PKIA, Nov. 9.—The controversy between the reoelvers of the Beading Railroad company and auoh employes as are members of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen has prompted an expression of opinion from Attorney General Olney In the form of a letter to Judge Dallas of the United States oourt, before whom the case is pending. The difficulty between the Reading and the employes reaohed a crisis on August 15 last, when General Superintendent Sweigard summoned before him eleven employes and notified them that they should abandon the brotherhood as a condition of retaining their places with the railroad company. Vigorous protests were made against this alternative and the brotherhood urged the receivers to withdraw it, but in answer the receivers, on September 17, wrote:
The polloy of this company Is well known to be that it will not oonsent that persons In Its servloe shall owe allegiance to other organisations which may make claims upon them whioh are Incompatible with their duties to their emploj ers. This position was taken advisedly, and we have no Intention of departing from It."
Attorney General Olney's letter is an exhaustive discussion of the questions presented, and he reviews the various problems and the consistent solutions to be applied in every aspect. In substance he holds that labor unorganized is practically powerless that In combinations such as this lies the only safeguard of the worklngman in his dealings with organized capital, and that his right to belong to such a union— beneficial in Intent and purpose—is a legal right whioh he cannot be deprived of.
BURNED TO DEATH

WOODS ABLAZE.
Fire In Texas Timber Causing a Orea Amount of Damage. BBOWSSVIIXE, Tenn., Nov. 9.—Several days ago the woods in Uatchie bottom, 8 miles west of Brownsville, caught fire. At the time little attention was paid to it, but since then, with winds from the west, the fire has spread, gaining headway and approaching the city rapidly. It is now within 4 miles of the oity, destroying everything in its path. Dry, frost-killed leaves on trees, dead timber, fenoes and unprotected houses all succumb to its ravages. The greatest loss will be in the matter of rail fenoing. If there is not rain soon there is no telling when the fire will stop, as everything is as dry as powder and burns rapidly.

Sharp aocused Traynor of having voted for Denny, the republican. Traynor denied it, when Sharp oalled him a liar. Traynor struck Sharp, who is badly crippled. The blow knocked Sharp to the sidewalk, and before he oould get up, Traynor drew a knife and began cutting him. Toumey, a young friend of Sharp, rushed to his assistance and knocked Traynor down. Ike Davidson, a well-known distiller, lumped in and tried to separate the men. Traynor scrambled to his feet, and, apparently trying to get away, went down the street with two pistols in his hands.

MICHIGAN BALLOTS ILLEGAL.
Supreme Oourt Decides What Conrtitutes a Distinguishing Mark. LANSING, Mich., Nov. 9.—in deciding the case of Scott vs. Gleaser the supreme court was called upon to decide what constitutes a distinguishing mark on a buliut within the meaning of the new election law. Tho law says that the presence of a distinguishing mark shall render a ballot Illegal, and the oourt unanimously held such illegal features to be any other than the single mark necessary to make known the eleotor's intention. The opinion •ays that if a voter desiring to cast a straight ballot make a oross over the top of his ticket and then put one In the square before each candidate on the ticket the ballot is Illegal. Another illegal ballot, the oourt says, would be one where the voter, desiring to split his ticket, had placed a cross before the name of the eandldate for whom he wished to vote, and then erased the name of tho candidate for the same office on his own ticket.
Thousands of ballots marked in each of the manners described were counted in Michigan Tuesday. In many cases where the vote waa close the result already declared will be changed if contests are made, as they doubtless will be. The court bases Its opinion on tho proposition that the law Is Intentionally explicit and that as a single mark constitutes a vote a second mark is unnecessary and may be an agreed method of identifying ballots, which identification the law expressly seeks to avoid.
