1st congressional district special election
Incumbent Democratic Congressman William H. Brawley of the 1st congressional district, in office since 1891, resigned in 1894. A special election was called for April and it pitted two Democrats against each other because the South Carolina Democratic Party refused to organize a primary election. James F. Izlar defeated J. William Stokes in the special election to win the remainder of the term for the 53rd Congress.
