cal Consequences of Late Elections,
gives 3 list of Democratic and Re-
publican States, with the number of
! electoral votes TO which each is en-
titled, to show the present political
situation as regards the Presidential
election. The Democratic States are
-Alabama, Arkansas, California,
Connecticut, Delaware. Florida, Geor-
gia, Indiana, Kentucky, louisiana,
Maryland, Mississippi, New York,
New Hampshire, Tennessee. Texas.
Virginia and West Virginia, with 4
| total vote of 1873. The remainder
are Republican States, 10 in all, hav-
! ing total electoral vote of ISL.
This shows that the next Presidential
| election Will be close and doubtful,
and one of the most exciting contests
| that has ever occurred Ia the history
of our politics. Judging from the
| latest elections in all the States, the
Democratic party would elect the
next President by majority Of Z,
but that will be easily wiped out if
the Republicans carry Ohio next De-
tober-the moral effect OF the triumph
three weeks in advance of great
contest being worth at least fifty
electoral votes to the party which
shall carry the State. The Republi
cans have merely to keep what they
secured last month to give them the
ascendancy in Ohio in October, 1876,
and carry off the Presidential prize,
but if they lose that, the election OF
a Democratic President would be in
evItable.
ST. PAUL, November ).
Returns from the State election
continue favorable to the Republic
cans, so far as the State ticket is con-
cerned. The Republicans claim
10000 to 10000 majority for all the
State candidates except the Treas
urer. who will probably have from
1000 to 5000 Legislative returns
as yet are meagre, but the Democrats
appear to have gained, SO far, four or
five members. Tins, if not overcome
by Republican gains, will make the
Legislature very close.
CHICAGO, November 5.
A Logansport, Indiana, special
says; Last night Daniel Robinson,
six miles from Kokoma, Indiana, de-
liberstely attempted the murder of
his entire family. First, by shooting
and killing one of his children, and
then firing at his wife, but missing
her, who escaped and gave the alarm.
Robinson then shot and killed
second child, and wounded third in
the face, who made his escape. Not
vet satisfied, Robinson severed one of
the dead children's head from its
body and left the house. The neigh
bors, aroused by the wife, were soon
on the spot, and immediate pursuit
was made in all directions. The
body of Robinson was found by the
side of the track of the Indianapolis
and Chicago Railroad, few miles
from Kakoma, he having evidently
met his death in attempting 70 get
on or off moving train. He has
been known as quiet, peaceable
citizen heretofore, and the cause Of
