parts of the State, which show near TO-
600 majority for Horace Austin, Repub-
lican candidate for Governor. The Re
publican State ticket follows close after

Returns of election still come in very
slowly, but the probabilities are that the
Republican majority on the State ticket
will be between 10, 900 and $4,000. The
Legislature is two-thirds Republican in
both branches; in fact, it appears proba-
BILE that the Republicans will have as
many majority in the next as they had
votes in the last Senate.
The Assembly is very largely Republi-
can, and that party will have from five
to seven more than two-thirds vote in
this body.
Yesterday quite a number of persons
we're examined at the police court on
the charge of illegal voting on Tuesday
1t is understood that stringent means
will be adopted to secure the conviction
of all persons who were arrested for dis
orders on election day. lIto
The vote in this city is as follows;
For Secretary of State: Willers Demo
craft, s2,O24; Scribner (Reform), 62,ll9.
Willers' majority, 27,9O5. For Register;

Supreme Court Judge: Barrett Re
form, 1851; Ledwith (Democrat), 49,
1872. Barrett's majority, 1889. The
vote in the State so far shows a majority
for Scribner, for Secretary of State, of
Is, 95S. In Meatcher county the Repub-
licans carried everything. The State
ticket has a majority of at least 10000,
and the county ticket is carried by about
the same majority. Not single Demo
crat is elected in the county
Donovan intends to contest the Tweed
vote for Senator, on account OF alleged
gross frauds by repeaters. A large gang
of repeaters, estimated at 400, came
here to vote for Norton, the Tammany
candidate for Senator in the Filth
District. When they arrived, they
found that Norton had no money.
As consequence they were hired to go
to the Fourth Senatorial District, and
they put in thousands of illegal votes for
the Tammany candidates. When the
votes were counted in many districts, the
doors were closed and no one allowed IN
the polling places except the Tammany
gang. Rosa says that he can
prove fraud in nearly every district,
and relies on the Senate acting in
same manner as Congress did in the case
of James Brooks. Other Reform candi-
dates will contest the result in the As
sembly districts.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill, November g.
Returns so far indicate the election Of
Beveridge (Republican,) by $4,000 ma
jority. The vote in the State is about
three-ffths as large as at last elections.
Chicago, November 9.-The majority
for Medill, reform and peoples candi'
date, will be about $4,000. The total
vote of the city is about $4,000. There
is much rejoicing here among men Of all
parties over reform majority in New
York city. U..tl
