CHICAGO, Nov 3-I0 ?. n.
The result OF the election In this State for members
Of the Constitutional Convention Is not fully ascer
tanned In all OF the districts, but 1t Is pretty
certain that the republicans Will have about
ten majority in that body. owing to the
independent manner in which the people of
this city and county voted yesterday, the labor
OF canvassing votes has been long and tedious, and
at this hour ten P. NJ, the work is scarcely CON-
pleted. The average majority for the citizens ticket
in the city, however, Will not vary many votes from
10000 The average majority for the citzens' ticket
In the county is about 10 400. Every candidate the
citizens ticket in both city and county elected.
Every ward and precinct In the city gives majority
for the citizens ticket, OF the twenty-six aldermen
elected twenty-five were candidates on the citizens
ticket and all the twenty ward supervisors elected
in the city were citizens candidates.
