THE ELECTION IN OHIO.
Democrats concede Hayes only 1000 Majority
THE LATEST ESTIMATES

john ". thompson, cualrnlhn Vi Tue
democratic central committee, says he has
returns from sixty.six counties and esti-
mates of the other twenty-five. This in
cludes returns of 5000 republican majority
in Cuyahoga and 100 In Hamilton. He
regards both these returns as too large but
taking them for granted to be true, says it
cannot give Hayes more than Z, 900 majori-
ty. wikoff, of the republican committee,
says he has yet to hear from IA counties
considered republican, and 10 democratic,
and SO is unable to give definite figures.
Returns from 81 counties now In, show
net republican gain of 7,76S.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 10.
A most remarkable change in the polt-
ical feeling has occurred this evening. AT
noon the democrats conceded the state TO
the republicans by from 10000 to $4,000,
but this afternoon they received private adj
vices which considerably changed their fig
ures steadily, cutting down Hayes prospect
i've majority. This evening the democratic
committee closed their headquarters to out
siders and have since been figuring on the
result, and now claim that Hayes, If elect
ed at all, will not have over $500 majority.
This result the committee claim is reached
from figures received from their private
correspondents in fifty-three counties and
thirty-five counties to hear from. Thomp-
son, the democratic chairman, says they
yet hope to prove Aliens election by
small majority.
This news spread like wild.fire and mer
who were confident to-day and jubilant
over having won considerable sums OF
money on Hayes election, now fill the re-
publican committee rooms, anxiously in
quiring for news.
A. T. Wikeff, chairman of the republi-
can committee, admits his news of this af-
ternoon will cut Idown Hayes prospective
majority, but claims he has no news at all
in keeping with the news at.the democratic
rooms. He declares he cannot see how it
is possible to overcome Hayes majority.
The republican figures give the repubi-
cans nine majority in the house, not count
ing four considered doubtful, and three
majority in the senate, with four members
yet in doubt.
A revision of the republican figures give
Hayes net gain of 943l in SO counties.
On the other hand democratic figures
claim that Hayes will not have over 1000
majority.
LEGISLATURE REPUBLICAN,.
New York, Oct 10.
Murat Halstead teegraphs from Cincin-
natl to the Evening Post as follows:
$50 p. m.-We think Hayes majority
will slightly exceed 10000. Legislature is
republican. Figures to-day reduce the
figures of Hayes majority somewhat but
do not effect the general result.
10000 MAJORITY STILL CLAIMED.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 13.
The returns come in very slowly and it
is yet impossible to give accurate figures on
the result, but both the republican and
democratic state committees agree that the
state has gone republican by over 10000.
THR LEGISLATURE.
The most significant news ofto-day is an
official despatch from Ross county SHOW
ing that Allen has carried the county by
only 242, giving republican gain of 4O5,
which elects the republican senator, repre-
sentative, treasurer and judge. The abb
sencc of all figures on lieutenant governor
and the legislature makes q definite state
ment regarding them impossible, which it
is not certain to both committees but it is
quite probable that the republicans have a
working majority in both branches of the
general assembly.
TOLEDO, Oct. 13.
| Lucas county, with one township to hear
from, gives Hayes 5,773. The majority
for Hayes will not be less than 1877 by
official count.
DAYTON, Oct. ID.
Montgomery complete gives Allen 1922
majority, and Carey $40. One republican
and two democrats are elected representa-
tives and one democratic senator is elected
in this district. The soldiers home poled
1900 votes, giving Allen majority.
CNcIANATI, Oct. 10.
The twenty-first ward gives Allen ma
jority of 1858. This leaves Hayes majority
SO far as heard from, in Hamilton county,
619.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 10.
Full returns from Cuyohoga county give
Hayes majority of 1884, a gain over
