the vote on the state ticket, the Herald this
morning says: Another day has passed,
the third since the election, without settling

close in the case of every one OF them, and
that the probabilities still favor the success
of the Democratic candidates"
The Sun estimates Cornell's plurality at
SO, 800, and Potter's majority at 1890.
