COLUMBUS, October 13.--Returns come
in very slowly. II is yet impossible TO give
accurate figures on the result, out both the
Republican and Democratic State committees
agree that the State has not gone Republican
by over l0,000. The most significant news OF
to-day is an official dispatch from Ross cOun-
" showing tnat Allen has only carried the
county by 2I2 majority, a Republican gain OF
4O5, and which elects Republican senator,
representative, treasurer and judge. Both
committees agree that it is quite PROBABLE that
the Republicans have a working majority in
tOtu branches Of the general assembly.
The Democrats concsde tue State TO the Re-
publicans by 5000 msj jOrity, and a fair major
lty in both branches of the general assembly.
A most remarkable change in the political
feeling has occurred this evening. At room
the Democrats conceded the State to the Re-
pubhcans by from ten thousand TO fifteen
thousand majority, but,th evening they re-
ceivsd private advices which considerably
changed their figures, steadily cutting down
Hayes'S prospective majority. This evening
the Democratic committee closed their head
quarters to outsiders, aud have since been hg-
uring on the result, and they now claim that if
Hayes is elected at ali, he will not have over
twenty-five hundred majority. This result,
the comm lttee claim, is reached from figures
received from their private correspondents in
hfty-lnTee counties, with Jhirty-hye counties
TO hear from. Thompson, the Democratic
chairman, says they yet hope to prove Aliens
election by a small majority. This news
spread like wildtre, and men who were conf
dent to-day ana jubllant over having won
considerable sums of money on Hayes's cleo
tiOn, now MI the Republican committee
rooms, anXtOuSly inquirlng for news. A. i.
WIkOff, chairman of the Republican commit.
tee, admits u at his news OF TINS evening VIII
cut down Hayess prospective majority, hut
claims that be has no news at all IN keeping
with the news at the Democratic rooms. He
declares he can't see now il is possible 10 over
come Hayess majority. The Republican hg-
ures give the Republic ans nine majority IN
the house, not counting four considered doubt
ful, and three majority in the senate, with
four members yet in doubt.
CINCINNATI, October I3.-Seveuty-
one out of the eighty-fVC precincts in Hamil-
ton county give Hayes majority OF 9O5, and
siXty-eight precincts give Young, the Repub-
ncan candidate for Acknowledgements,
majority over Cary, Democrat, of 300. The
fourth ward, in the first precinct, gave Allen
a majority of 726, Democratic gain. The Re-
pubhcans elect their legislators by an average
majority of 1000. Its estimated that Hayes's
majority in this county will reach 1850.
Revised figures on the vote of Hamilton
county give Hayes "a 49S and Allen H,Oi9; Re-
publican majority, 415.
COLUMBUS, October l3.-JOhn E.
Thompson, chairman of the Democratic cen
tral committee, states that he has returns
from sixty-six couItses, and estimates of the
of SIX thousand Republican majority in CUya-
hOg8 county and eleven hundred in Hamil JOn.
He regards both these returns as too large, but
taking them IOr granted 10 De true, ne says IL
cSvnot give Hayes over twenty-five hundred
majority. Wikoff of the Republican COM
mittee, says he has yet 10 hear from fourteen
counties considered Republican ana ten Dem
Ocratic, aud he is unable TO give definite
figures. Returns from 1ity-seven countie.,
now in, snow a net Republican gain OF seven
thousand seven hundred and sixty 'ght.
A revision of the Republican figures gives
Hayes net gain OF S43l in hfty-siN counties.
ON the other hand, the Democratic figures
claim that Hayes will not have over two thou
sand majority.
