received at the headquart ers CT either
party this morning and the crowd at
both places are dependent mainly upon
press dispatches for informat,on.
Some change in the feeling has taken
place since yesterday. The Democrats
now feel confident Of victory, and the
Republicans, without yet giving up
the fight, still admit that the prospect is
less cheering. Great satisfaction is ex-
| pressed by the latter at the unexpect-
eddy heavy Republican majority in
this State. s34H7@T
Doubt is entertained of Pacheco's
election as the returns to date are
somewhat against him.
Strong hopes are entertained that
McKenna is elected, and dispatches are
m~omentarily expected at headquar-
ter from northern counties which will
probably settle the question.
On the street to-day the crowd re-
mains almost undiminished, but is
much less noisy, owing probably to
the fact that the dispatches are few and
far between and not, of. a particularly
cheering nature to either party.
There was some talk among the
Democrats this morning of claiming
Oregon, but late advices, have had the
effect TO crush their hopes Of that State.
On the whole, the Democrats seem to.
have the best Of it to-day. sssa

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 9.
Since the election there has been
much talk about frauds i'm this city, the
Democrats claiming that in view OF the
immense vote polled and the Republi-
can majority, that such must neces-
sarily exist. The matter is understood
to have been discussed by Governor
Irwin, Mayor Bryant and others. and
as a result the Board of Supervisors
met this afternoon and instructed the
Finance Committee to Investigate the
conduct of the officials and everything
pertaining to the election. In accord
ance with this, the Finance Committee
presented County Clerk Reynolds, who
has in his keeping the ballots, certifi-
Gates OF affidavits, etc. to turn those ar
ticles over to the Sheriff. This raised
a tremendous breeze, the Republicans
openly alleging that the obvious pur.
pose was 10 obtain possession of all

oloCtinp IN fho Oifv Tbaro xuac a vocf
amount OF rushing around for an hour
or so, and, as a result of which, a meet
ing took place in the Mayors office.
George G. Gorham, A.. &. Abel,
United States District Attorney and
others represented the Republican in
terest, while Supervisors Wise, Chair
man Of the Finance Committee of the
Board of Supervisors, Captain Mulian,
j.. f. Naphtaly and others were in at
tendance on the Democratic side,
Mayor Bryant presiding. County
Clerk Reynolds was also present and
numbers OF interested citizens. The
Consolidating act was brought for
ward in evidence. and it was shown
conclusively that the attempted trans
fer of the election documents was ut
terly Illegal, the County Clerk being
the only lawful custodian.
Mr.. Wise admitted that the action OF
the committee in demanding the cleo
ton documents was contrary to the
law in the case, and, after considerable
discussion it was decided that all the
papers should be deposited in the
Clerks vault. under seal, with a trust
ed deputy in his Office and a q. S. dep

where they should remain untoucned
until Monday, when the vote would be
canvassed ; after which the Finance
