If Hayes should carry all Of the States
put down as doubtful he would still lack
20 votes of enough for election. Tilden
can lose New Jersey and California and
all Of the doubtful votes and still be elect
ed. The chances now are two to one in
favor of the election of Tilden and Hen
bricks.

The Vermi,iOn Homicide.

Since publishing the account Of the af.
trays between Mr.. +. K. King and Gail
Schneider, of Abbeville, which resulted
in the death of the latter, we have received
the following note from responsible and
well known gentleman Of this city.
While deploring the savage habit which
turns neatly every dispute into fatal quar-
anything of a political character in the
origin OF this affair. The political standing
of the respective parties had doubtless
some influence on the minds of the domin-
ant element Of Vermilion after the tragedy,
but there is no manner of doubt that the
deceased did his full share of provoking
the quarrel to deadly issue. Had he
succeeded in killing King, he would doubt.
less have been lynched, which would have
been wrong, as it had come By the joint
conduct of both to the point when one o-
the other must fall, as each believed the
other intended to kill him on sight. The
communication explains the origin Of the
difficulty.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN,:
In your issue of the fourth instant | no.
tice an article headed "Peace in EermiIioE, y
giving an account of the difficulty bet ween
Carl Schneider and f. K. King, Esq.
The account is SO grossly erroneous and
injurious that l doubt not you will take
pleasure in correcting 1t.
The history of the affair is succinctly as
follows:
Schneider, who was deputy tax collec.
tor, had made large purchases of property
sold for taxes.
King was employed as lawyer to bring
suits to set some of those sales aside. This
greatly incensed Schneider against him
Some hostile language had passed between
them. Some time after, without any fur
ther provocation, Schneider most unex
pectedly commenced firing a revolver al
King while his head was turned from
Schneider. The latter continued firing
hitting King four times. So soon as Kin
could get out of his pocket little derringel
pistol he returned the fire, dangerously
wounding Schneider. Both parties had
hardly recovered from their wounds when
on the night before the last rencontre
Schneider waylald King on his way to his
house. and he only saved his life by q
rapid flight. The next day King shot hin
on sight.
So we'll satisfied is the community that il
was case of justitiable homicide that ne
writ Of arrest has been issued up to the
latest intelligence, nor is it likely that any
ever will be issued.

MISSOURI.
The Inelinihle EIector


st. Louis, Dec. THE report of the
proceedings of the presidential electors
of this state, at the meeting yesterday,
shows that Chas. q. Stifel, the Repub-
lican elector for the Sd district, applied
by letter to Gov. Hardin, for certifi-
cate of election, on the grounds that
Gen. l. w. Frost, the Democratic cleo
tor, was ineligible, and that he (Stifel)
received the highest vote cast for an
eligible elector in that district This
application was refused by Gov. Har-
din, he stating that a certificate had al
ready been issued to Gen. Frost Dur
ing the session of the college Stifel pre-
sented a communication, setting forth
Gen. Frost's ineligibility, and claiming
his right as an elector. This the col
lege declined to have read.
Subsequently Geo. ii. Shields, chair
man of the Republican committee, pre-
sented a protest to the college against
the appointment of any person to act in
the place of Gen. Frost, as being illegal
under the laws of the State, and also
against Gen. Frost's substitute being
allowed to vote or act as an elector, as
being ineligible, and not legally enti-
tied to act, and against the refusal of
the college to permit Stifei TO act as an
elector. The protest also sets forth, in
detail, the grounds on which Gen. Frost
is ineligible.
The protest was tabled, by vote of
the college, and the vote of the electors
cast for president and vice-president.

WASHING TON.
The OREGON affair.


Washington, Dec. THE news from
Oregon created intense excitement this
morning, and is still tonight the alb
sorbing topic of conversation. The Re-
publicans have, however, in great
measure, recovered from the alarm
which at first prevailed among them,
and now generally take very cheerful
view of the situation. This altered tone
of feeling is largely due to the presen-
tation of facts and law bearing on the
case made by Sargent's speech in the
Senate and by Mitchell's conversational
statements to his fellow senators, and
his resolution proposing thorough in
vestigation of the matter by the Senate
committee on privileges and elections.
Senator Mitchell thinks there will be
no trouble about the matter, the gov
ernor having exercised judicial func-
tions, whereas the law of Oregon con-
fines him to the strictly ministerial duty
of giving certificates to the persons who
receive the highest number of votes.

been recognized the name and address
are added to the number. Then on
receipt of the eoroner's permission the
corpse is placed in plain deal coffin
and driven to the address given by the
persons who have claimed it. There
are very few identifcations, however.
1t is impossible that there can be many

recognizable. Trinkets were many of
them lost in the crowd, and the cloth
ing has been either all destroyed or
burned into cinder, or mere rags.
At the Adams street morgue.
THE SCENE WAS HORRIBLE.
Many charred bodies lay on the floor
which could neither be identified nor
distinguished as male or female. my
God!' said one poor woman, gazing on
mass of charred bones; ''that may be
my boy, but who can prove it..
The undertakers are very busy, and
the police with difficulty keep the streets
in the vicinity clear enough for passage.
Pitiful scenes are occurring every
hour. There have been 297 bodies put
in the morgue, and the mortality will
probably reach $50. The aldermanic
burial committee report that 1888 bodies
were at the Adams street morgue and
96 at the city morgue at IL o'clock.
THE BURIAL ARRANGEMENTS.
The aldermen, and supervisors met
jointly to-day to provide for public
burial of the unidentified bodies. The
directors of Greenwood Cemetery Of
fered lots for 100 bodies. This was
accepted. The proprietors of the Park
theatre and Hooley's Opera house Of
fered their services in. behalf of the
sufferers. The Academy of Music will
be used for the memorial services.
