A prominent, Democrat said he did not
concede Hancock's defeat, nor would it
be conceded by the National Committee
unless Nevada voted against them.
This declaration is believed to cover q.
claim to carry the election before Con-
gress and decide ins Hancoek's favors
The idea is, that the solid South, New
York, New JERSEY, Nevada and Cali
fornia gave Hancock majority. New
York, therefore, is to be claimed by
Democrats, the vote Of the city being
overhauled sand manipulated by the
Board of Aldermen, so as to come as
near as possible to overcoming the Re-
publican majority in the country. The
State Canvassing Board would give the
State to Garfield, but on coming before
Congress J, objections will be made.
Congress will go behind the returns and
count Hancock in. David Dudley
Fields name is mentioned as authority
for the law points to be brought up.
It depends ON the vote of the Pacific
States.
The Herald's Washington special
says: At the coming session of Con-
gress, besides, the counting of the Elec-
toral vote, there are threeaother very
important matters to be settled, failing
which the eonyening Of the Forty
seventh Congress in extra session at an
early day III, lSSl will be necessary
The first in order viii be the reappoint-
ment for Congressional representation
daring the next ten years, beginning
with the Forty-eighth Congress. The
next question involves the financial
honor of the nation-the repeal of the
silver bill. The third important ques,
ton is the necessity of making provis-
ION for funding S675, 900, 600 of bonds,
$500, 600, 900 Of which are six per cents
and the remainder five.
The Times says Some wild rumors
appear to be current in Philadelphiatand
elsewhere that the vote of New York
will not be counted for Garfield, that
the Democratic Congress- viii not permit
it, and kilograms have been sent from
various parts of the country expressing
great alarm at This new danger to the
stability of the country Mr.. Kelly
and the State Committee may cry
fraud" andinstirute investigations, but
they are go obviously constrained to DO
something to divert attention from
their own ,blunders that this need
excite no surprise.
The returns indicate that the House
stands LAG Republicans, III Democrats,
Is Greenbackers; Senate, 81 Republi-
cans, 80 Democrats, conceding the
Democrats all they claim; but if either
Davis or Malone work with. the Re-
| publicans, or if both act Independently,
the Republicans will have majority by
counting on Arthur for the casting vote.
fThere is also possibility of a Repub-
| lcan Senator FROM North Carolina or
| Tennessee. In tbs calculation the Cali
fornia Senator is conceded to the Demo
Gratis.
John Kelly is receiving all the kicks
and abuse. The Sun this morning says:
From ditch to ditch, deeper and deeper
into the mire, John Kelly leads the
Democratic party. The possession and
retention Of the office ofeComptroller of
New York by John Kelly has lost to
the Democracy, control Of the Govern
ment of the United States for the mex.
four years. -
General Hancock runs ahead of the
State ticket in North Carolina, and will
probably have 10000 majority. gsoa
