SUMMARY OF RESULTS.
The following is q summary OF election dis
patches received here up to an early hour this
morning: Dispatches received subsequently
VIII De found In our telegraphic columns else
where:
NEW YORK.
The Albany Erensng Jo,u1ad, has additional
returns from the state ticket, and figures the
ernor at 349. 1t says the returns generally in
dictate that Carr, for secretary of state; Wads-
worth, for comptroller; Wendell, for treasurer,
are considerably ahead, and probably elected by
from 2,00O to 5, 900 majority. HOSkinS total vote
in New York city is 5O,O95, and Potters ss,675,
Potter'S majority being AZ, $50.
The Albany Argus (dem.) estimates Cornells
plurality at 81 1892, Potter's majority at 1885,
and claims the remainder OF the state officers
by less majorities than that Of Potter's. The
Express (rep.) estimates Cornells apparent ma
at 249.
The New York Herald to-day says; at is
still doubtful which party has carried the State.
1t looks at present as If Potter and Seymour
have been elected by small majorities but the
vote on the state ticket, from the lieutenant
g0veraer down. is 50 close that it VIII probably
Gd concludes that New York still remains the
debatable ground Of the presidential canvass
with nearly equal chances to both political par
Ties. The New York Sun says: 1.-THE vote for
acknowledgements, secretary of state, comp
troller, treasurer and attorney general Is very
close, both parties concede. The returns are
few counties has the full vote been received.
Mr.. Cornell's plurality may reach 40 900, and il
may be cut down to So, 000 but there Is little
doubt but what 1t will range between these tig
ures There are enough missing returns to
make the heutenant-governOrship in doubt.
The Sun's returns give majority of 2.162 for
Potter. These figures may be diminished by
official returns enough to elect Mr. Hoskins but
the democrats still claim Mr. Potter's election,
and with seeming good reason.
VIRGINIA.
The few returns received last night changed
but immaterfally the figures of yesterday in re-
gard to the complexion OF the legislature on the
debt question. Several counties have not been
heard from definitely. and consequently their
returns are only estimated. The DiSpatch,s
figures foot up as follows: House-47 debt-pay-
ers, AZ readjusters and II doubtful Debt payers.
Senate-19 debt-payers, II readjusters, and
doubtful. The readjusters still claim that they
have both houses by small majority. Official
figures will be required to settle the difference
between the two statements, and even then the
matter will be in doubt, as there are some of
the newly elected members who are not known
to be positively pronounced either way. AS to
the organization Of the general assembly, the
indications are that the debt-payers will have it
under their control.
