WHAT Is THOUGHT OF THE RETURNS
AT WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, October 6.-The dispatches
received Today from Colorado, insis ing on a
Republican triumph in the new State by a
small mejo jority, are not credited mere any more
than those which first claimed large major
ity. The election of Dem cratic governor
and Coz gcessman is believed to be without
doubt. Mr.. Richmond, the Democratic can
dIdate for attorney general, in Colorado, was
here three weeRs ago, and frequently warned
lis friends of the advices which the RepubIi-
cans would send east from Denver, and pre-
dicted that they would be largely in their in
terest; but added that when the returns were
all in from south and southwest Colorado it
would turn out that the Democr ats had tri-
umphed. Localities distant from the tele-
graph, and known 10 be Democratic, have not
oS en- been heard from.
