What the New York Papers Think
of the SitMNtiOn.

New YORK, Nov. 13.-The morning
papers are as wide apart in their views
concerning the election as ever. The
Times is assured Of Hayes election, and
says the proof accumulates every day.
1t claims information from trustworthy
sources giving Republican majority in
South Carolina of between 1000 and
5000. The majority in Louisiana will
he decisive, and Florida in a fair count
Will show Republican majority of over
1000. The official count in South Caro-
lima Is now proceeding. 1t will COM
mence in New Orleans on Friday, but
the Board of Canvassers will not COM
plete their work in Florida for probably
two weeks.
The Tribune says the contest Is mar
rowing down to Louisiana, Florida and
South Carolina, and are now confidently
claimed for Hayes. Its Washington ad-
vices say the Democrats are reported as
practically abandoning the two latter
states, and mean to concentrate all
their efforts on securing the vote Of
Louisiana. 1t is believed the election in
Louisiana may turn upon the vote OF the
inundated parishes, in two of these
only one Republican vote was cast. and
that one being by United States Com
M ssioner. The registration shows that
the vote of the col0red men, who are In
the majority, was not polled. The Re-
turning Board of Louisiana has decided
that it has reyisory control of returns
from oVerawed Districts.
The Herald says Florida, South Caro-
lima and Louisiana are still in doubt,
and are claimed by both parties. So far
as the additional returns 60 they point
as before to Democratic success. 1t
publishes figures from partisan sources
in Louisiana, and says that between
these conflicting statements there seems
no road to decision short OF the official
count,
The World says: Though there is yet
intense feeling over the election of last
week, and the possibility OF trouble at
the South if the attempt is made to re-
verse the result certainly arrived at in
TWO of the three closely fought States
and probably reached in the third; DeV-
ertheless there is less noisy demonstra-
tion than marked Thursday and Friday.
The Worlds advices claim Louisiana
for Tilden by $3.50 majority, and Fiori-
da by 1900 to 800 majority. In South
Carolina Hampton has 1,200 to l 800 ma
jority, but Tilden runs considerably be-
hind, and his success is doubtful.
Another Sensation.
The Worlds special from Montpelier,
Vermont, says that discovery has been
made that Henry N.Sollare. .jr., ,one OF the
Republican Presidential Electors elect,
is ineligible, he being Postmaster of
Bradport, and this may give one of the
votes OF Vermont TO the Democracy.
The SUMS advices give Louisiana to
the Democrats by 7,779 majority, and
Florida by not less than 1, 200. In South
Carolina, Hampton's majority is over
1000. Tilden runs behina several hum
dred votes, but will probably have a
small majority.
Interesting to the New York Bet
ters.
NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-Rumors are
afloat in this city that one OF the largest
pool sellers has suddenly disappeared,
taking with him over $3.50. 900 in election
pools.
what the President is Doing.
WAsHINGToN, Nov. 13.-Se1retary
Chandler stated last night that it was
useless to telegraph him asking for In
formation respecting the votes OF South
Carolina, Florida and Louisiana, as
nothing can be known until the end OF
the week. He AUTHORIZED the statement
that Hayes was elected, according to
private advices received by him, and
that not even the frauds upon the bal
lot-boxes could make it otherwise, as
every District showing prima facie evil
dence or fraud would be thrown out.
General Sherman had an interview
with the President last night upon the
situation in the South, aid received
such additional instructions as were
necessary to preserve order. These ip-
structious were telegraphed to the COM.
officers at once.
The President stated that Gen. Gar
field had gone 10 New Orleans, but that
Gen. Logan and Senator Edmunds would
not go. No persons had been asked to
60 In the place OF the two latter, the
President considering that those who
had already accepted the invitation
would be able to satisfy the public that
fairly. The President is very ANXIOUS
to have the votes in South Carolina,
Florida and Louisiana counted in
the iarest manner, so that whoever
has the majorities will enter
upon his Presidential term
with the full confidence OF the people of
the whole country, aud 1t is for the pur-
pose of securing this end that he has di-
rected the General Of the Army to have
the Federal officers at New Orleans,
Tallahassee and Columbia exercise the
utmost vigilance in preserving peace
and protecting the officials who have
charge of the ballots from being undu!y
interfered with. Outside interference
will not be tolerated, no matter from
what source it may come. The Presi-
dent will see justice done, no matter
whicn party is benefited thereby.
