The returns are now so far in as to enable us to determine the practical results in the four States. The Republicans have lost seven Congressmen and gained one—a net loss of six. In Pennsylvania the Republicans have a majority of three in the Senate and twenty-four in the House—a majority on joint ballot of twenty-seven. This shows a gain for the Republicans of fourteen over the last Legislature. In Indiana the Republicans have a majority of twenty-four on a joint ballot, equally divided between the two houses. In Nebraska we have a majority of forty-two as against twenty-eight in the last Legislature. The Republicans gain a United States Senator in Pennsylvania and one in Indiana.
