come in very slowly. Thus far the official vote OF only
As counties has been received. Some notion OF how mat
ters are managed may be cot from tho fact that the
official rens for Marion County Of which this city is
part are not IN yet and it is supposed that they are
held back so that the vote Of tie Eighth Ward Of Indian
apolis may be thrown out alleged echnicalty
II IL would aid in defeating Hendricks This desperate
hope viii probably prove vain, as his majority Is IN
creaspc rapidly, and viii be such as 20 set
vii Is
bio for stranger to understand the misgiyngs Of
the liberals for the last few days, but they have had
euch bitter experience in the past Of the cunning and
fraud Of their antagonists that they scarcely feel safe
until the last vote s actually counted ana cerhed TO-
The official returns general thing increase rather
than diminish Mr.. Hendrickss majority From the re-
tnrns and tho estimates Of tho other counties besides
