Rhode Island Constitutional Convention

PROVIDENCE, Nov. 2I.-The election
returns from seven towns indicate that
the Constitutional Convention has been
voted down by a great majority. In Ii
verton Wing Senator has been elected
to fill vacancy. This, it is thought,
gives the Convention one majority in the
Senate, although the Democratic majority
will still be three. The vote against the
Convention is quite heavy, and will not
fall short of 900 majority.
