The Result In Ohio Still In
Doubt.
Hayes Majority Steadily Growing
Beautifully Less.
Aliens Friends sill Confident of
Success by a Small Majority.

COLUMBUS, October l3--l.30 =. MA
most remarkable change In political
feeling has occurred this evening.
At noon the Democrats conceded the
State to the Republicans by from ten
to fifteen hundred majority, but this
evening they receive private advices
which considerably changed their fig
ures, steadily cutting down Hays pros
pective majority.
This evening the Democratic Com
mittee closed their headquarters TO out
siders, aud have since been figuring on
the result, and now claim that Hayes,
if elected at all, will not have over
1000 majority.
This result the Committee claim is
reached from figures received from
their private correspondents in fifty
three counties, and thirty-hve counties
to hear from.
Thompson, Democratic Chairman,
says they yet hope to prove Aliens
election, by small majority.
This news has spread like wildtlre.
Men who Were confident to day, and
jubilant over having won considerable
sums money on Hayes election, now
fill the Republican committee rooms,
anxiously inquiring for news.
A. j. WikoH Chairman of the Re-
publican Committee, admits his news
of this morning will cut down Hayes
prospective majority, but claims that
he has 40 news in keeping with the
news of the Democratic rooms. He
declares he cannot see how it is posi-
bic to overcome Hayes majority.
Republican figures give the Republi.
cans nine majority in the House, not
counting four considered doubtful, and
three majority in the Senate, with four
members in doubt.
Decentralization of the Republican
figures gives Hayes net gain of SAL
in fifty-sx counties. On the other
hand, the Democrats claim that Hayes
will not have over 1000 majority in
the tifty-siX counties, with thirty-two
counties TO hear from.

Hon. Hendrick y. Wright, Chairman state
Democratic Committee, Philadelphia, Pa;
The State has gone for Hayes by u
small majority. Returns Indicate that
the Democrats polled u vote 10000
larger than was ever east for any man
cleo ted Governor of Ohio. Our defeat
was the result of the most lavish eX-
penditure of money which ever par
ticularized political contest, the col
onization of fraudulent votes, and the
introduction of the false issue on the
public schools, which excited the pref
udice and bgotry of the religious vote,

COLUMBUS, Ohio, October 14.-Re-
turns considered reliable from eighty
five counties, received by the Republic
can State Central Committee, show
maioIity of three thousand four hun
dred and sixty-three for Hays.
The counties of Wood, Carroll and
Delaware are yet to be heard from, and
are ordinarily considered Republican
counties, but Wood has gone Demo-
cratic this year, and 1t is thought the
Democratic gain there will neutralize
the Republican gains in Delaware and
Carroll counties, SO as to make the
majority for Hayes substantially as
above.
The Democrats concede the House
of Representative to the Republicans
by good majority, but claim the cleo
tion of one Senator in the Toledo dis

one majority.
