Mr.. Sumner is now working, In its repeated
efforts to defeat the Civil Rights bill on its

New York, t. A Raleigh special to the
Herald last night says returns from all parts
of North Carolina come in slowly, and are SO
confused and conflicting as to increase the
general doubt and uncertainty as to the ac-
tual result. The democrats assert that their
candidate is elected by 1900 to 20, 900 major
ity, and the republicans claim about the same
for their candidate. As far as heard from
the dispatches rates that Caldwell, repub'
iican, has gained about 2 500 over the demo,
cratic vote of 1870. A Raleigh despatch last
night says IS counties show a republican gain
Of 1850 over the vote of 1870 A later des-
patch state that II counties give Caldwell a
gain of 1881 over the vote of 1870, leaving
',26S to be overcome by the republicans in
the remaining u counties.
Raleigh, N. c., 4. Official and partial re-
turns from Is counties reduce the democratic
majority of 1870 to some 1000; The remain

gains in the east are much larger proportion

but by the vote of 1870 the Republicans must
overcome a majority of 1894 to carry the
State. Orange county, the home of Gov.
