SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 3.-Tle polls closed
at $50 p. M, after as quiet All election as was
ever held in this city. Total vote 4l,OOO, es.
tilDating . few precincts in which the count
is not quite completed. 1t is probable that
not more than 1870 ballots can be counted
before midnight, and the result IN the city
can only be cOntectured at present. From
all the information obtainable at the present
writing the opinion seems to be that the Re-
publicans have carried the bulk of the city
ticket, with the exception of Mayor. Kalloch
Is thought to be running ahead Of his ticket
with q prospect of plurality. The Demo
cratic and Honorable Blk city ticket cuts no
figure. 1t is thought tina: the Republicans
have reelected Davis for Congressman in this
district, and that the Republican State ticket
generally is ahead.
No returns yet received from the interior.
Some general statements have come in from
. few points in the Interior, but not sufficient
to even remotely indicate the result. All re-
port that the election pa sed oil quietly, and
in most places q large vote was polled. In
San Benito county Glenn is believed to be
ahead. The W%orkinginen probably carried
Vallejo by about 81 plurality, with Glenn
third. In Fresno county the fight is between
Perkins and Glenn; in Santa Barbara il is
between Perkins and White; IL is believed
the former will have q handsome majority.
About 600 votes have been canvassed in the
city. If they cal. be considered as indicative
Of the way matters stand, in the few precincts
reported the Republican prospects for carry
ing the city are excellent, although Kalloch
10 running ahead If his ticket, but he appears
70 get his outside vote mostly from Democrats
and Honorable Bilks.
The reports from the interior are too mea-
gre and scattering to afford q basis for coMciu-
sion 10 to the result. Generally speaking in
comparing the returns with the vote on the
New Constitution, the outlook Is favorable to
she success Of the Republican ticket. Where
White and Glenn run well together Perkins
10 generally ahead, aud where either Glenn
or White has q decided lead Perkins is sec
Ond and returns more evenly than the others.
Il seems probable that be will have q plur-
atty. But few returns have, however. been
received from tile populous precincts. In the
Second, Third and Fourth Congressional his
tricts Page, McKinna and PacIecho seem to
be doing better than the balance of the ticket.
Indications point TO q full vote in the inter-
Tor. Probably but little will be known Of tho
result before tomorrow evening.
According to scattering returns from Wood
laitd, county seat of YOllo, that county is
considered strong for Perkins. No ballots
yet canvassed in the city.
