ELECTION INCIDENTS >How the Returns Were Received In ;■ Chicago b ,( Campaign Managers. V I HOPE BASED ON LATER RETURNS. I , — IfrhU Wxi the Condition of Managers About the Democratic Headquarter# [ During Receipt of First Returns—Rej publhan* Moro Jubilant — Cleveland Did Not Vote—General Gonslp. 1 Chicago. Nov. 4.— Chairman Jones and other members of the Democratic executive committee, including Secretary Walsh, Committeemen Johnson of Kansas and Campau of Michigan, received returns in Chairman Joni's’ office, y where an Associated Press wire had been run. Chairman George T. Wash-! burn, of the Populist national commit- j tee, was also present, as were also Sena- ; tors Teller of Colorado and Tillman of I South Carolina. The first returns were ' received at Democratic national head-' quarter at about 6 p. m. They were j from Rutland, Kan., and gave a vote of ■ 211 for Bryan aud-U for McKinley. The early returns from the eastern i states showed Republican gains in al-1 most every instance. But little interest, however, was manifested in the returns admittedly Republican. The first surprise came from Baltimore, which showed a big majority for McKinley, indicating that the state had gone Republican. Every report from the middle western states was eagerly watched for. and much, satisfaction was expressed at*the first report from Michigan. This was from Gratiot county, giving Bryan 800 plurality. This county gave Harrison a plurality of 1,376 in 1892. “We have no reason to lose heart.” said Chairman Jones, after reading the returns from New York and other eastern states. “All this early stuff is what we have been expecting. ’' At 9 p. m. Chairman Campau of the campaign committee expressed great oonfidence in the result. “Returns from Ohio, Michigan and Indiana look very well for us,' r said he, “especially from fche two former states. The only thing that we arc surprised; at so far are toe returns from Illinois outside of Cook county. These seem to indicate that the state has gone for McKinley. The x\ Lorn Baltimore look rather bad, but we expected early returnes to be unfavorable ;nothing definite will be known for some hours.” ■ Late report 3 received at headquarters that of the doubtful states Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, lowa, Kentucky, Maryland and Nebraska had gone for McKinley. A telegram to Chairman Jones from the Democratic state chairman of North Dakota claimed that state for Bryan by 8,000 plurality. Chairman Jones, how ever, refused to concede any of the middle western states to’McKinley With the exception of Illinois, which he conceded, but bv a small plurality. He was confi dent that iatdr reports would materially change the complexion of returns, which had so far-been from strongly Republican districts. National Committeeman C#mpau at that hour claimed Bryan had earned Michigan by at least 1-5,000 .plurality and that returns from the mountain districts of Kentucky and Tennessee would show that those states had also been carried by the Nebraskan.

At Republican Headquarters. At the headquarters <>f the Repnbelaborate prep ' aiatioas were made for the reception if the election retain-. The news was late in starting ana for a time very slow in *cm’ng. The Inst message that did not deal with the conc.tmn of the weather and was not an indefinite promise than a statement of actual ocuditions ciune from Dona !d?lackay, the chairman of the Oregon state central committee* It Was as fellows: ‘•The city of Portland gives a majority* of 5,0'00 for McKinley, and this means "the jJatejMr the Republican ticket.” ’ ffifhis is a good one to start'on.” sa.’i ,yice Chairman Payne, ‘•'but it's only the first raindrop of the coming deluge. We will have plenty more of the same’ sent by and’ey;” Then ensued an hour of indefinite . messages from'all points of the country, all of them, however, being of an encouraging nature to the Republican cause. Thc-re came a message from Baltimore saying that Chairman Rusk of the Democratic city central committee conceded that city to McKinley by 15,000. “That means Maryland for us, T think,” said Mr. Payne, quickly. “We are going now, and they will never catch us. ” • After this the telegrams came in a shower that seemed never to pease. Tim | vote or a lew precincts in a town here i >.‘id a county there with, however, littld | of a substantial nature to ballast them. | A howl of delight, went up from the I crowd in the halls, and rooms adjoining , Mr. Payne’s office, when the. telegraph , instrument ticked off the message from , Chairman ferry of the. Michigan state', central committee: ( is safe for McKinley bv ! 50,000.” ’ This news was cried out of the win- I dew to the crowd below and the howl I in the hulls above was a gentle whisper i to the wild roar from the pavement. i The next chairman to report with ’ definite assurances was Bixby of Minn- i esota, who said iiiat his commonwealth , wanted Mr. McKinley and wanted him , to the tune of 30,000 to. 35,000. This cameiu a few imputes before .8 o’clock, and Vice Chairman Payne at once sent out a telegram to Chairman Hanna at Cleveland and to the various state chairmen, saying: “McKinley Mias carried Chicago by about 60,000. Returns from Michigan, Illinois, lowa, Kentucky and Minnesota show that those states are safe- for McKinley.” The report from Nebraska headquarters to the effect that Bryan would be beaten hi his own state by a majority of 13,000 gave the liveliest satisfaction, and the cheers were loud and long when from the east came news equallycheering. General William Osborn, the secretary of the New York committee, sent word that McKinley had carried Maryland, West Virginia by. 25,000 and N»w York by 800,000. Then the west apoke «. up onoe more, and lowa sent word that would be 80,000 rear whM 08. . ~ T 1 * T 11 .

the final roll was called. Thon came the south with a promise of 20,000 votes to the good in Tennessee, and a sufe majority in thi' Dem< cratic stronghold of Virginia. At 9 o’clock Vioe-Chair-man Payne sent the following message to Chairman Hanna: “We now claim Ohio by 50,000, Indiana hy 40,000. Michigan by 40,000. Wisconsin bv 80,000. Illinois by 100,000, Nebraska* bv 15.000, lowa by 75,000, Minnesota by 35,000, Kentucky by 20,000,”

New York, Nov. 4.—The dead body of George Jaeger was found by his roommate.x udrewSchnerenbran,hanging from the transom of the room they occupied together at 282 Scholes street, Williamsburg. Despondency from sick ness and worriment over what he termed his “ill luck ’ were ascribed as the cause for the deed Schnerenbran’s discovery of the body was due to the actions of a dog, which »vas a pet of both men. According to the story told by Schnerenbran, he retired shortly after midnight and found Jaeger sleeping in bed. His next recollection was of the dog’s*, strong actions! when he .was awakened by the annual's striking him in the face with, his pt.ws. Finding that he was awake, the dog began to bark and run toward the door of the room. Looking in that din cion, he saw a kneeling figure, which in the dim light looked like a man.

“I reached over in bed.” Schnerenbran said, “and finding Jaeger’s place empty, I concluded that it was he who was looking out of the window. I called to him to come back to bed, but he didn’t answer. So I turned over and went to sleen again.” Schlieren bran was awakened again by the dog, and the aniipgl kept upsuch a barking .hat he got out of bed and went over to where he had seen Jaeger before. The minute he touched him he knew something was wrong He lighted the gas and, seeing the straparound the maids neck, alarmed the family living upstairs. Jaeger had placed a narrow valise strap and then fastenad it to the iron fastenings of the transom on the door. By pressing forward he had suffocated himself.

They had got all their little worldly possessions together and done them up in bundles to carry out before the dormitory went. Bnt if one girl found another whose bundle was heavier she helped, and they would even leave their own to help * friend.
