on the subject. He says

The returns above given are from counties where
the Republican vote is especially strong Thus lar
official majorites have been received from 49 coun-
ties which cast little more than one half the
entire vote of the State These counties in 1868 gave
Republican majority of G,162. This has been re-
duced to GOs8, Liberal gain of GA. If the Liberal
strength holds its own in ahe other counties, Hend-
ricks's majority if not tampered WITH would reach
at least S,5O0.
HOLDING BACK TIE RETURNS-THE LIBERALS

lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEI
INDIARApOIIs Oct 1O-7 p. m.-Such returns as are
at hand do not materially alter the estimate of this
morning. The day has been passed in the same state
Of feverish and painful expectation. The most sin
iser rumors fill the air and the holding back of
turns from the Morton counties excites the most
anxious soEctude on the part of the Liberals. The
Chairman of the Democratic Committee, Mr. Afford,
s confident that the Liberal majority is too positive

-tion to telegraph 10 ali the county inspectors TO
watch the votes until the final delivery Two ooun-
ties that are generally largely Mortonized
lust adjoining this district and accessible
within one hour are held back without any satsfac-
tory explanation. Morton has given out all day
that tomorrow afternoon Brown would show
count Of 900 ahead. This could not possibly lie
Wholesale tampering with the ballot, the Liberal
gains are regulsr and decisive and virtually make
ohange in 81 counties OF $500 votes on the basis Of
1868. Such confusion and excitement were never
known before in Indiana. Telegrams from
az pa-ts of the State and from all parts
OF the United States pouring in ineessantly'
making leverish inquiry to the result Tie latest
official reports quite materially change the first
aspects which generally favored Morton. and were,
ss a genersl thing written by people hvoring his
interest.
The most sinister plot Of the day has been 10 let it

Grant majority was a certain uumber and on TIE

out some LDeraa districts, aud recount some Grant
Republican and give the day, happened before. TO
Brown. But the Liberals have learned by ex-
porienec TO make cOncessi1n, and resolutey de-
mand returns from every county in the statebefore
quitting their post. and the scandaious exhibition
may very possibly be continued until Saturday, or
until the Secretary Of State shall have made the
declaration Reports of false counts and outrageous
deception practiced upon voters, come in from all
the Nortonzed parts Of the State. These, il seems
principally in the interest of legislative ma
orty, but if the figures can be trusted, the end was
not attained. Even concediDg the Legislature, as is
claimed by the Morton people, the members holding
Will rather incline to turn the majority in favor
Of the Liberals and, at any rate, defeat Morton by
