Special to the Star.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 15-3:00 P. Mail the
townships are now in. Rickenbacher, Re-
publican candidate for Sheriff, is elected
by g. majority. TtI."t
CoLuMBus-S:00 A. M.-The result of the
State is largely an estimated one for more
ahan twenty -four hours after the polls closed.
The Republicans claim the State by 25,Uo
majority, basing the claim on the fact that
l67 voting places out of about 1000 show
q Republican net gain of 6,5O2. This ratio
Of gains, they figure, will give them the
State by 25,O 900 or upwards. The Democrats
contend that the largest Republican gains
are in active business centers, which are
heard from first, and the ratio will not hold
when the rural regions are reached, and
that Fosters majority will not be over To-
600.
The Republicans claim 81 out OF 35 Sen
stors, and 65 out of ia Representatives.
fhey base this on the theory that the vote
of last year gives the Republicans II Sena-
tors certain. and claim the election of four
others in doubtful districts. To make up
the 65 Representatives, the Republicans
must get the doubtful counties OF Law
renee, Jackson, Erie, Van Vert, Williams
snd Noble.
SPRINGFIELD, O., Oct. 15-11 A. M.-The
count gives Republican gains in the Sec
ond. Third and Fifth Wards and Demo-
cratic in the First and Fourth. The town
ships give Republican gains Dial and
McConkey, Representatives, and Pringle,
Senator are elected.
THE COLUMBUS ELECTION.
COLUMBUS, O., otsl 15-l P. M.-The ex-
eitsment in the city over the result on the
county ticket continues unabated. The
Republicans are jubilant and happy, while
the Democrats are morose and sullen.
The impression which prevailed here be-
for midnight last night that the whole
Democratic county ticket was elected van
ished with the morning. Our reports were
from Democratic townships which gave Re-
publican gains.
The Republicans now claim, and with
good grounds, that they will elect the Sher-
i'll, two Legislators, one County Commits
sioner and the County Recorder. The
majority for Sheriff they place at 81. The
Democrats, on the other hand, claim the
entire county ticket Internationally.
While the Democratic candidate for
Sheriff says he is elected by 1o5 majority,
he informed reporter, who told him what
the Republicans claimed, that if it proved
true he would contest the Sheriffalty, as
illegal voting had been resorted to by the
Republicans.
XENIA, O., Oct. 15-2 P. M.-There was a
tremendous vote polled here yesterday,
and returns from every precinct are in.
Greene County gives Fosters majority
2,142. The largest per cent of the Renubli-
can gain was in the Bloody Fifth, there be-
ing over 60 per cent gain. This ward takes
the $40 banner.

COLUMBUS, ONO, Oct. 15-6:30 A. NJ
All indications at this writing point to an
overwhelming victory for the Republicans
of Ohio. The Democrats, however, in this
county elected their ticket with the excep-
ton, perhaps of one legislator. Chairman
Robinson has informed your reporter that
Foster would carry the State by at least
10000 majority, and it was his opinion that
the Republicans had secured both branches
of the Legislature.
Chairman Mckinney left Democratic
headquarters before midnight, and could be
found nowhere. Some claimed he had
gone off disgusted. Many Democrats,
however, keep up brave front, and say that
to-day they will feel differently, and
claim that later returns will alter the ap'
pearance of the present Republican figures.
Cool-headed Democrats concede Fosters
election and lay the blame at the door OF
the Nationals and dissatisfied members oil
their own party. Others attribute thelI
defeat to the failure of the Bishop men to
support the ticket as they should. John
G. Thompson, like Mckinney, was non est
He left the Democratic headquarters about
the same time as Mckinney did and has
not been seen since on the streets or by
any one.
