THE COUNTRY SAFE
HAYES AND WHEELER ELECTED
LOUISIANA SURELY REPUBLICAN

The Republicans have made no loud
boasts OF the result of the election, pre-
ferring to await figures and facts. He
laughs best who laughs last. It is proper
to say, however, that private informa-
ton from New York and Indiana Is of
such character a. to give Repub-
licans strong hopes Of carrying one
or both of these States. 1t n q
significant fact that since an early hour
this morning NO figures whatever have
been received from the State of New York
BY the Associated Press, and one that tends
to corroborste private information regard
ing that State.
Meantime the evening papers afford
ground for . reasonable belief of the elec-
ton Of Hayes and Wheeler.
From doubtful States the following In.
formation is received BY the Associated
Press:
SAX Francisco, November Sit is likely
the Republicans have elected all four mem
bers Of Congress. Twelve of the forty-nine
precincts Of this city gives Hayes four ma
jority. Nothing from the interior, Oregon
or Nevada. The Democrats are jubilant
over returns from tho East. Tildeu tele-
graphs Bryant he Is elected.
Tho Republican msj ,rity in the State
probably 5000. Tho Republicans claim
Nevada by 500, and Oregon by 800 ma
jority.
LAKE CRY, Fa., via New York, November
8.-Ft 10y. Democrat, IL elected to Congress
BY 600 majority. Columbia county. Deme-
cratic majority 1876; Democratic gain 90.
Duval county, R.publican majority 800;
Republican gain $50.
Partial returns from other portions Of the
State show Democratic gains, with pros
poet Of the Democrats carrying the State.
$50 A. M.-PArtial returns from sixteen
counties in Florida (Rspublicsa strong.
holdl show net Democratic gain over the
vote in 1874 of 544.
Columbia and Monroe counties, formerly
Republican, elect entire Democratic ticket.
Finley Democratic Congressman probably
reelected.
AUGUSTA, Ga, 2:5S A. n Nothing fur
thor from Florids. The election will be
close; both sides claim the State.
SOUTH CAROLINA.
CHARLESTON, November 8-The official
count of the city of Charleston gives Hsmp
ton fifteen majority. Tho Nescs and Co.s-
rjes's estimates of returns, covering tho
whole State, exclusive of Chai lesion county,
give Hampton over 10000 majority.
That paper does not think it possible
that Charleston county can give moro than
5000 Republican msjority, and it considers
the State safe for Hampton, and also for
Tilden, who, it believes, will not fall behind
Hampton more than 1000 votes.
Republicans still claim that heavy ma
jority in Charleston county will overcome
the Democratic gains, and give tho State to
Hayes and Chamberlain.
DIS A. H.-Returns up to this hour give
Hampton 1000 majority. This does not In
olude Charleston county, which will proba
bly, give Chamberlain 5000 or 6000 majority.
The election will be very close, with
chances in favor of Hampton for Cover
nor and Hayes for President.
WIsCONHIN.
MILWAUKEE, November Sc. w. Keyes,
chairman of the Republican State Central
Committee, claims Wisconsin by from 5000
to 1000.
Two hundred and sixty.two towns and
wards give Hayes 1901 majority; net Dem.
ocratic gain no. Strong Republican ooun-
ties are to be heard from.
These States, added to those already con.
