Jliat Both Parties Are Applying to tha Courts to Protect Their licans Have the Votes on the Face of Returns, It Small Number of liallou That Would Have Changed the Result Mju-yland Id to Have a Republican senator. Columbus, Nov. last night it became known that the courts would be resorted TO for the purpose of preventing boards of election from issuing' certificates to the Republican candidates for the legislature in certain counties.

The cases will be brought in the lower courts and thence to the supreme court as soon as possible. The Republican state committee also has lawyers preparing cases of contest. The Republicans get three representatives on the face of the returns form Delaware, Noble and Wood counties whose tiluralitiea aggregate only U2 and a change of 72 votes would have given the Democrats control of the legislature. The Republicans claim that the Democrats also elected members of the legislature on close margins; that there were ten counties in the state that gave less than 100 plurality each for their candidates for the legislature and that the Democrats secured as many members on these small pluralities as the Republicans. Both sides are preparing for contests first in the courts and afterward in the legislature.

Republicans Have an Advantage. As each branch of the legislature is the tribunal of last resort in judging the qualifications of its members the Republicans have an their control of the house, over the Demo- cratst, who control the senate. There are 36 senators, with only two or three contests possible in that body. In the house there are 105 members, with a dozen or more seats that can be contested, and the Republicans claim a majority of 7 in that body so that more Democrats could be unseated in the house than -Republicans in the senate, "While both committees are keeping secret any arrangements for legal proceedings it is stated that the Democratic state committee will seek to enjoin enough certificates of election from Republican rep- repentatives to prevent the Republicans from organizing and appointing the committee that will consider contests. Developments are expected to- Croker aSded, says Stead "If you intend to write about me, please Bay that Tammany must give New York the best government It ever had.

New York is the Ideal city of the world and that is the future watchword for Tammany." Stead proceeded: "It is a great vindication of Tammany and Croker, and Jtives them a wonderful opportunity, though It does rot wipe out the slate the past. Nothing could erase ths Lexow revelations; but many men who, struggling to the front, sometimes find it necessary to do shady things to get there, would be superior to such temptations after having- achieved position. Becky Sharp said 'It is easy to be virtuous on a thousand a Tammany and Croker l.iave got the thousand a year. The election must give a great Impetus to Bryanism." About the election generally Stead was quite cheerful, saying: "The Chicago platform minus the nonsense about free that is what Tammany's victory scare the English. To m03t of us in the old country your plutocrats seem a much greater menace to the commonwealth than the Democrats, ever, if they do swear by Croker and Tammany Hall.

The Republican campaign fund staggered us much more than the victory of Van "Wyck." Use Logan Milling Flours Patent and Automatic.

The official count from the Delaware county is in, but with protests and notices of contest from the Democrats, and the same is true of Noble county. The official count of Wood county may not be completed till tomorrow, although they expect to get through today. In Wood county the Democrats proteste against counting the vote of a precinc where the place of voting was outsid of the precinct but within the ward Had this precinct been thrown out i would have elected the Democratic can didate for representative by a plurality of 5, instead of the Republican candi date by US. The vote of the precinc was counted and the Democratic protes filed. Other technicalities are expected in the progress of the vote in tha county.

In Noble county there was a long contest over 27 scratched ticket that were finally thrown out because they were not properly marked. This was a Republican loss. Every point is being contested in the official of the close counties. Claims of the Two Chairmen. Chairman Nash said last night tha' the Republicans have a safe majority of 5 on joint ballot in the legislature He admits that the pluralities are small in some counties, but claims they are safe.

He has no doubt of the result in any of the counties which he claims except possibly Wood county. Chairman McConville does not adroit that the Republicans have carried the Thirteenth district for their candidate for state senator, and he still claims the representatives from Noble, Delaware, Wood, Muskingum and other counties claimed by the Republicans. He also expects the official count to give the Democrats two of the twelve members of the legislature from Cuyahoga county. McConville charges fraud in the close counties- and in some Republican counties. MEAN'S GORMAN'S RETIREMENT.

Definite Figures as to the Standing; of the Maryland Legislature. Baltimore, Nov. official count the ballots cast on Tuesday last, made in most of the counties yesterday, leaves no further room for doubt that the Republicans have control of both branches at the legislature and that a Republican Will succeed Arthur P. Gorman in the United States senate. Five members of the assembly and one senator were taken from the Democratic list of probabilities and added to that of the RiSupblicans.

Three of the members and the senator are from Talbot county and one member each from Prince Georges and Carroll. This gives the Republicans 49 members in the house and the Democrats 42. It also gieves the Republicans IS senators to for the Democrats and a majority on joint ballot of 17. The result in Talbot county arose from thefactthat eighteen votes in Tilghman precinct were found tohavebeencounted twice for the Democratic ticket. This being corrected gave the Republican legislative candidates majorities ranging- from 16 to 19 votes.

In Prince Georges a similar correction elected Underwood, by 4 votes, while in Carroll, the recount showed that Stansbury, defeated Grouse, by23 votes. The doubtful votes in Montgomery and Washington counties also went Into the Republican column by small majorities. The Democratic state headquarters were closed yesterday, but before he left the chairman said the official returns would be required to settle the status in the legislature.

Stead ga-re his views to a representative of the Associated Press yesterday IB original phrases such as characterize his utterances. Croker, it appears, while conversing with Stead predicted that the Tammany majority would be 100,000 votes, adding: "It I were to run for I should want all the Unofficial Totals in Iowa.

Des Moines, Nov. unofll- (tf-'il totals for governorare: Shaw White 193.567; Populist, middle-of-road, gold Democrat, Prohibitionist, 10,692. The total vote is 440.19S, in spite of the stay-at- home vote. Shaw's plurality is 30,988. His total vote is the largest ever cast for a Republican candidate for governor, being 16,000 higher than the highest before.

It is also higher than the vote ca.st for any Republican candidate for president in this state except the vote for McKinley last year.

The counties which have reported the vote in full make the total for the state 263,971, and when all are in the total will hardly go over 300,000. This shows a tremendous falling off from last year's a grand total of 445,775 was for an off-year. Senator-Elect Voight Non-Commtttal. Cincinnati.

But for President Cleveland'!

The legislature finally passed a law establishing a closed season from Nov. 1 to Dec. It, this being the spawning season. The new law has met with decided opposition for the reason that about one-third ot the entire catch of the year is obtained during the six weeks covered by the closed season, there having been no restrictions in the way of season limitations heretofore. The most potent argument advanced in behalf of the new law was that it was necessary, if the white- flsh are to be saved from utter extinction.

In view of the fact that the law will work a great hardship on most of the fishermen of the state by reducing their annual catch by one-third, the fishermen EO affected have combined to prevent its enforcement If possible. Thus far the fishermen appear to have the best of the situation. Those at Charlt- voix, Saginaw, Alpena and several other places banded together and raised a fund with which to the law. They applied to Circuit Judge Charls- voix, who issued a temporary Injunctlom restraining the state fish warden from interfering in anj' manner with the fishermen In the conduct of their buMnees.
