UNSETTLED,
THE LATE VOTE OF NEW YonK
Omcial Count I'm Progress-Both Par
ties Claiming the Victory
Remarkably Close In
Many Cases.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE official
canvass occurs throughout the state TO-
day. Meanwhile the democrats claim
the election of their lieutenant governor
and one or two other state officers,
while the Republicans claim the entire
ticket except one. All doubt will prob.
ably be dispelled to-day.
New York, Nov. 1.-THE official
canvass Of the election returns through
out the state began yesterday and will
not be completed before Friday or Sat.
urday. Returns have been received
from fourteen counties.
The Times last table made out an ap-
parent majority of 622 for Hoskins for
lieutenant general; 30,6s for Carr, for
secretary Of state; 6,053 for Wads-
worth, for controller; 1920 for Ward,
attorney general; 4,040 for Wendell,
for treasurer; and e.1s5 for Seymour,
for state engineer. All of the above are
republicans, except Seymour.
The fourteen counties above referred
W. 90 SOhPdicu " Ilc 1HUtS ldDlt
show a loss of SO for Hoskins, and 116
for Carr; gain of 33 for Wadsworth; !;
a loss of $40 for Ward; loss of ITO for
Wendell, and gain of 1,545 for Sey-
mour.
New York, Nov. 1.-THE Sun says
the official returns from about half of
the counties show slight republican
gains over previous estimates enough
to indicate that the vote for lieutenant
governor will be very close, and that
the republicans may have carried the
remainder of the state ticket, except
engineer and surveyor. The World
claims the election of Potter, Mackin
and Seymour.
Utica, N. Y, Nov. 1.-THE Oneida
comfy canvass has been made but was
not confirmed by the supervisors, on
account of the returns of the Fifth
ward, Utica, not being filed. 1t is
claimed they cannot now be received,
and will be thrown out. If they are.
Anderson (republican), will be elected
senator over Stevens (democrat), by SO
majority.

mendations that will be made in the

the following, viz: That Secretary Nc
Crary will endorse Gen. Sherman's re-
commendation for legislation to estab-
lish the army on basis of $4,000 men,

tailed for special duties.

Press Opinions on the situation

Press Opinions on the situation,
st. Petersburg, Nov. 11.-All of the
Russian papers have articles upon the
latest steps taken in Constantonople by
the British government. and in certain
circles an uneasy feeling is generating.
The Golas says that in the event Of
England attempting to violate Turkish
independence, and at the same time
to infringe on the vital interests Of
Russia, collision between the two
powers would be more convenient for
the latter on the confines of Asia Minor
than in the depth of central Asia.
Another paper is of the opinion that
the powers are opposed to aggressive
measures on England, and that none of
them will act as cats-paw.

The Tumble in Wheat.

Chicago, July PA mysterious dis
pensation to-day sent the prices of
wheat down five or six cents, and cre-
ated almost panic on change. There
have been many days when the prices
of wheat have fluctuated five to ten
cents per bushel, but there has scarcely
been more general interest felt on
any of these occasions than to-day, and
certainly none where the cause was
more occult. Early in the day Archie
Fisher, brother of J. X. Fisher, the
accredited broker of James Keene, be-
gan selling wheat in spite of stronger
cable advices and the generally favora-
BILE symptoms for holders.

Jeff Davis Inheritance.

New York, July Yesterday s.
Percy Ellis, brother of Sarah A. Dor
sey, who bequeathed her property to
jefferson Davis, received copy of the
will and letter from Davis. The letter
recites that the writer for years had
known Mrs. Dorsey, and by daily asso-
citation with her during the past two
years, came to know all her goodness
and kindness of heart. Not one word
In the letter gave any intimation that
he thought the bequest strange. Davis
has no idea of allowing it to pass from
him. Nevertheless it is positively af-
hrmed that the will will be contested to
the end. Able lawyers of this city and
New Orleans have been engaged. The
grounds upon which they will combat
the will, will be undue influence or in
ability to execute such instrument.
Ellis, after his service in the southern
army, went to Panama where he was
employed in railroad office. He is
now the grand representative of the
supreme council of the United States
OF Columbia to the supreme council of
The northern and southern jurisdictions
OF the United States. 1t is stated that
he was the person who brought the
nrst American relief to Walker in Mic
aragua.

Removing Mountains to Dig Cana

Removing Mountains to Dig Canal.
London, July 24.-The Times, which
ridicules DeLesseps' canal prospectus,
publishes an interview with him by a
lady, and reports him as saying: To re-
move the Culebra mountain we shall
first dig wells of the depth of forty to
fifty feet, and from these points cham
bers will connect the whole top of the
Culebra, then trains of powder being
prepared the whole top will be blown off
at once. To carry away the debris,
steam cars will be used, running ON a
circular tramway. The canal will be
AZ miles long and 30 feet deep, with
the same width of channel as the Suez.
There will be eight circular basins, for
anchoring steamers, built alternately
on either side of the canal. Thus fifty
vessels a day, if necessary, could pass
in a day, and draw water as if in the
open sea. 1 shall go to America in
November and hope to find acquaintan-
ces and help from the people who are
the ones to reap great benefits from the
piercing of the Panama isthmus. Mr..
Appleton has prepared me for what
shall see and hear, and 1 confidently
expect a pleasant trip to the states.

New York, July PA warrant has
been issued for the arrest of Captain
Merriman, of the bark John Zittlosen,
who, on voyage from Bremerhaven,
put in irons five of his crew and placed
them below half deck three and one
