generally suspended and a full vote will be
polled. Only two or three arrests have
been made by the police. The vote of the
employees of the manufacturing establish
ments was almost unanimously Republican,
but little scratching being done. The sa-
looms are closed and there is no drunken
ness. This is sa great an election as ever
known. John G. Thompson says the vic
tory is certain for the Democracy il q fair
vote is had the better men of both parties
who have not taken an active part In poll
tics for years appeared early at the polls
and have shown an active interest ever
since. There is no Greenback or Prohibit
ton vote worth mentioning in this locality.
-Four precincts show a Republican gain
of 80. The day has passed quietly through
out the State as far as known, and q heavy
vote has been cast. The ticket being long
the count will be slow and the returns late
in. Comparison will be made with the
vote on Governor in 1876, when Williams,
Democrat, carried the State by 5,129, over
Harrison, Republican. Fifteen precincts
show a net Republican gain of 90. Returns
from rs precincts show a Republican gain
of 800.
New York, October 12.-The Herald
says The vote Is so close in both Ohio
and Indiana that complete returns will not
be obtainable for a day or two, but the de-
tails at hand show such Republican gains
in both States as to denote u Democratic
defeat in Ohio. Hamilton county, the
Democratic stronghold, has gone Republi-
can, and the Republicans claim a plurality
of 20, 900 on the State ticket, and a heavy
gain in congressman. Indiana is in doubt.
Both claim it as we go to press, but it is
apparent that even if the Democrats carry
it it viii be by no such majority as the A.
900 they had two years ago.
INDIANAPOLIS, October 13-2:45 P. M
Mr.. Landers, Democratic candidate for
Governor, is said to concede the election
of Mr.. Porter, Republican candidate, by
at least 1000 majority, and the Legislature
is probably Republican. In 4S0 precincts
there is shown a Democratic gain of $3.50;
Republican gain, 1885, net Republican
gain, 3,915.
this morning there was still over 1000 pre-
claim the State by 5000 majority, but the
returns do not show it, and we hope that
when the remaining precincts are heard
from, Landers will be elected by a small
majority.
The Journal (Rep.) says: Only the
smaller county precincts can be heard
from at this hour. Few, if any of the
large cities, will be heard from before
morning. The returns show gains, which,
if continued at the same ratio, would elect
Porter by 5000 majority. We hear Of
heavy Republican gains in the large cities,
and especially in manufacturing centers,
where the tariff question assumes the pro-
portion of a leading issue.
indianapolis city and county incomplete
returns) give an estimated Republican ma
jority of $500. A gain of over 900.
The Murder at ShelbyviIle.
CHICAGO, October 12.-The excitement
occasioned by the murder of Albert Nc
Corkle, county sheriff, on last Saturday,
has somewhat subsidized. Still considerable
bitter feeling exists, but not sufficient to
cause any more bloodshed. Kennedy, the
Republican brawler who did the shooting,
is still at large. The calamity is deplored
by all. McCorkle was 33 years old, and at
the time Of his death was serving his sec
ond term as sheriff. He was senior partner
of the ~Shelbyville Democrat, the county
organ. Aside from politics, McCorkle
was q useful citizen, an upright, sober man,
and a person who never intentionally
harmed any one.
The Democracy held their final rally
here to-day, and it was feared the scene Of
Saturday night might be repeated, but all
passed off quietly. The crowd was esti-
mated at 5000 men, women and children.
Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks delivered an
address, and the part of it referring to the
recent riot and threatened trouble on to-
morrow did him much credit, as well as
doing a great deal towards a~llaying the
present excitement. He advocated peace
at the polls in strong terms, urging every
man in the county to do all in his power
towards preventing an outbreak. In regard
to Kennedy, he said: "Should the officers
succeed In capturing him, whatever you
do, do not resort to mob violence. Select
twelve of your best men, give him a fair
and impartial trial, and abide by the de-
cision."
Ohio Returns-NOminatiOns.
CINCINNATI, October 13.-Ccmplete re-
turns from Hamilton county, excepting
three precincts, give Townsend (Rep.), for
Secretary of State, a majority of 2,637
McIlvaine (Rep.), for Judge OF the Su-
hear from gave q Democratic majority of
81 last year. Comparing the vote on
Judge OF the Supreme Court with that of
Governor last year, this would show o
Democratic gain Of 1877. Butterworth's
(Rep.) majority in the First District will
be / 200 and Young's (Rep.) in the Second
District about the same.
The Democracy OF the First District of
Illinois have nominated Hiram H. Cody.
