NEW YORK, October 10.-The excitement
about the Republican headquarters at
Fifth Avenue Hotel 10 intense. The lobbies
and corridors are crowded. Bets are freely
made, $50 to 800, that the Democrats will
The Republicans are confident and await
full returns. The following was received
at headquarters:
Indianapolis is strong for Harrison;
Hamilton county gives 1900 majority for
Harrison"
The HeralTs special says the county of
Marion has gone Republican by conceded
majority Of 5ON falling off Of about 1900.
The Germans went almost solidly for the
Democratic ticket.
Dispatches from Hendricks, Hancock,
Bartholomew and Floyd show Republican
gains. New Albany shows q largely in
creased vote and Republican gains. Henry
county will give . majority Of 1900 for the
Republicans.
Returns received from Columbus, Ohio,
indicate the return of the Greenback vote
to the party line-notably in Mahoning and
Allen counties. Should this return Of the
Greenback vote be general, it insures the
election of the Republican candidate, Nc
Kinley, to Congress, in the seventeenth
district, and makes absolutely certain the
election Of Ex-Governor Cox in the sixth
district. So far Barnes has not fallen much
behind his ticket.
The Herads special from Cincinnati says
"Alexander Sands, chief editor of the
Times (Republican), says he fears Barnes
has dropped fully 5000 behind his ticket,
which would give the State to Bell, the
Democratic nominee"
j. A. Mcmahon, Democratic candidate
for Congress- in the fourth district of Ohio,
telegraphs to the Tribune that his election
is conceded by about 5000 majority.
The Herald says editorially: The re.
turns thus far received indicate that Ohio
has been carried by the Republicans with q
moderate increase over their majority of last
year, and that Indiana has gone Democratic
by q majority somewhat less than that
of 1874, the date Of the last election. There
have been NO very marked political changes
in either State; there is nothing in the re-
turns to encourage either party to hope
that it will walk over the course in the
direct contest for the presidency.
Nothing official from Cincinnati, but the
Democrats have probably elected Congress
men in the first, second, fourth, fifth, sew
enth, twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth
districts. The Republicans have probably
carried the third, sixth, eighth, ninth. tenth.
eleventh, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth,
eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth, or
twelve districts out Of the twenty.
