HAYES TO BE NEXT PRESI-
DENT.

COLUMBUS, october 10.-The returns
received up to II o'clock, from 621
townships and wards, shows gain for
Barnes, Republican candidate for Sec
retary of State over the vote for Cover
nor, last year, of 1910; for Bell, Demo.
crotic candidate 6,S96; net RepubIi-
can gain of LOLA. This includes two
wards of the city of Cleveland and three
precincts of Hamilton county. If the
rest of the State shows the same rela-
tive gains. The Republican majority
in the State will reach near 10000. If,
however, Cuyahoga should give total
Democratic gain of 1000, as claimed,
and Hamilton county should give also
further Democratic gains, this majority
will be cut down to about what it was
last year. The country generally
shows Republican gains, while the
cities of Cleveland, Cincinnati and Co
lumbus show Democratic gain. 1t
should be borne in mind that compari-
son is made with the vote of last year
when the Republican majority was
$500. This is what the Republican
Committee claim, while the Democrats
claim the State by still a larger major
ity. The returns received, however,
show the result so far to be as given
above. Each candidate for Secretary
of State runs ahead in his respective
county. In some counties Barnes is
scratched on account of his Temperance
principles. Little can be said of the
Congress, save the probable defeat of
Banning in the End district by
Mathews, and Hurd in Toledo district
by Ex-Governor Cox.
There seems to be no doubt but that
Foster, of Sandusky district, has bee n
reelected. His friends claim larger
majority for him than two years ago.
Later returns from Dayton show Dem
Ocratic gains, which further reduce the
Republican majority.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 11-2 A. M.-The
election in this city passed off quietly.
There was very large vote. The en-
tere returns not in, but enough to indi-
cate that the entire Republican ticket
has been elected, by majCrities ranging
from l 800 to $500. Townsend, Rep,
has been elected to Congress by about
5000.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 11-Returns from
10 townships and wards, including
five wards ofCleveland, all of Column
bus and Dayton, show that Barnes
gains 9,915; Bell gains 1876; net Re-
publican gain, 1860. Nothing official
from Cincinnati. The Democrats have
probably elected Con gressmen from the
LIST, I'd, 4th, 7th, 18th, 18th and 14th
districts. The Republicans have prob
ably carried the Sd, 5th, Sth, 9th, 10th,
Ilth, 18th, 18th, 18th, 18th, 10Th and
Goth, or twelve districts out of the 90,
ten townships and five wards in Greene
c)unty give Barnes 3,611 and Bell O.
LOG. Beaver Creek township and Cliff
ten precinct, in Miami township, are
to hear from. Counting these as last
year, and Il ere is little change in the
county.
TOLEDO, Oct. 10-The election in this
city was very quiet and orderly. The
majority for the Republican State tick
ct is 760, and for Cox for Congress $50.
The vote is the largest ever polled.
State ticket 400 majority. Cox is un-
Hurd, the present incumbent, by ,200l
to 800 majority.
CINCINNALI, Oct. IL, 9 A. M.-The
Democrats elect their county ticket by
200 to 200 majority. Saylor has about
l 900 majority.
COLUMBUS, October II, 1:2O A. MI
Barnes (Rep.) net gain, as far as re-
ported at this hour, is about 500. The
claim the State ticket and
twelve out of the twenty Congressman.
The Democrats de not concede the
State, and claim that they hold their
own on Con sressmen.
Al this hour we have returns from
100 townships, wards and precincts in
Ohio, including the city of Columbus,
md five wards in Cleveland. Barnes
,ains 9,197 and Bell s, 176; net Republi-
an gain over 1875, 1000, which in I
ludes the townships in 50 out of the 8S
ounties IN the State. But little is
,nown of the result on Congress. The s
Democratic committee claim the elects
lon of Saylor and Banning in Hamil-
On county. The Republicans claim
he reelection of Foster in the Tenth
istrict. 9
