find himself confronted by Congress

SAN Francisco, November Ono ac-
tual figures can be given for Oregon, but
the Chairman Of the Republican State
Committee telegraphs that the State is
suref for Hayes by 1000 majority.
Returns from this State come slowly,
but those thus far received give Hayes
s, 400 majority, which additional returns
are not likely 10 vary. For Congress,
Davis and Page, Republicans, are cer-
tainly elected. Pacheco, Republican, is
thought to be elected in the Southern
district. In the Fourth district the con-
test Is close.
A dispatch from Portland, Oregon,
says the Democrats now concede that the
State has gone for Hayes by from 500 to
800 majority. The Republican State
Committee claim it by 1000.
SAN FRANCISCO, November 9.-During
the day there has been great deal Of
talk about frauds in the city election,
and the Board Of Supervisors have au.
thorized the Finance Committee to in
vestigate the matter after the returns
have been canvassed. The frauds are
all alleged to have been perpetrated
through the medium Of certificates, on
which parties voted who applied for reg
istra.ion too late for their names to go
on the great register.
The returns from the Interior have
been very meagre during the day, and the
election Of Congressman in the Sd and
4th districts is not yet decided.
George G. Gorham received a dispatch
from Oregon this morning, signed by
Senator Mitchell and Congressman elect
Williams, stating that Senator Kelly
comedies the State to the Republicans by
800 majority.
A Virginia City dispatch says that
Hayes majority Is certainly not less than
LOO. The Republican Congressman
and Judge Of the Supreme Court are
elected by perhaps 1000. No doubt
about these figures.
SAN FRANCISCO, November 9.-Rela-
tive 10 the proposed investigation Of the
charges OF fraud relative to the city elec-
tion, the facts are that the Board Of Su-
pervisors directed the Finance Committee
10 take charge Of the certificates Of regis
tration, afiidayits and other registration
documents, and at once proceed to inves-
tigatc. This is supposed to have been
tho result OF the conference between
Mayor Bryant, Governor Irwin and the
Board OF Supervisors: The County
Clerk refused to surrender the docu.
ments on the ground that he was the sole
legal custodian. Subsequently the Mayor,
Chairman Of the Finance Committee,
County Clerk, Chairman Of Republican
Central Committee U. s. Dist. Attorney
Coghler, Geo. G. Gorham and number
Of prominent Republicans and Democrats
held conference at the Mayors office as
the result Of which the demand for the
documents was withdrawn, and it was de-
cided that they should remain in the
county clerks vault until the returns are
canvassed on monday next, after which
the Finance Committee will proceed to
investigate. Tho committee consists Of 2
Democrats and Republican, and it was
agreed that nothing should be done ex-
cept in q full committee, and that the
investigation! should be public. The
matter has occasioned considerable ex-
element during the afternoon, and
charges and counter-charges was freely
made by both parties.
