NEW YORK, November S.-The indecisiye
results OF the New York election materially
increases the probability that Grant will enter
the field for the next Presidential nomination.
Son of his friends, who have been most
opposed to this step, now think he will be
made to believe it essential to continued Re-
publican supremacy in the nation, though if
the Republicans had carried New York by a
handsome majority he would have insisted on
remaining in private life. It is thought that
neither Blaine nor Sherman will openly con-
test the nomination, but there are some strong
leaders of the party who seem likely to try
and organize all opposition such as may tend
to make Grant hesitate still to enter the field.
Their objections are not personal but based
on the conviction that Grants nomination
would develop dement's of disharmony and
consequent weakness in New York such as
would have led to the overwhelming defeaI
of Cornell except for Kelley's bolt. EX-
Senator Fenton and many other anti-Conk-
ling leaders are sure to be disaffected and
luke-warm if Grants nomination is to mean
the removal of Conkling's dictation, and such
disafection would be amply suffi to lose
the State.
Tilden is not discouraged Iy Robinson's
defeat. He still holds his grip on the Dem
ocratic organization and Insists that he cali
carry New York both in the convention and
election. He will not give up the contest
readily. He thinks there will be no bolt in
the Presid. ntial election.
Bayald DIS chances are considered improved
by Robinson's defeat, because unbiased Dem
ocrats are convinced that Tilden cannot cor
daily unite his party here even if there
should be no open bolt, while ayard could,
Besides Bayard's financial views, more nearly
than those of any other Democratic candidate,
are acceptable to New York financial and
commercial interests.
In reviewing the New York election results
it should be understood that many Republi-
cans voted directly for Robinson, others voted
for no gubernatorial candidate, and many
more staid at home because of dissatisfaction
with the machine management which nomi-
mated Cornell. So Cornell's vote is far from
representing the true strength of the party if
firmly united again.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. S.-The bodies of Edward
Shelton, Louis H. Hammond, Anna Neon
nell, and Miss Gopher were taken from tie
ruins of Corle q Co.'s candy factory at Kan
sas City, in addition to those reported in dis
patches Of the 7th inst: The search for others
will continue. The loss is estimated at $751;
600. Joseph Mcclure, employe of the factory,
acted with great heroism. He dragged Miss
Nellie Horton and Mrs. Long down two
flights of stairs, through sitting smoke and
fire. At the bottom of the stairs Miss Horton
fell suffocated from smoke. Taking Mrs.
Long in his arms, he rushed through a sheet
of flame to the front Of the building, and
then attempted to return for Miss Horton, but
the fire was SO fierce by this time he could
not reach her. She was rescued, however,
from the rear of the factory. 70
