The Result IN Ohio.
Special Dispatch from a Times staff Cores
pondent.
COLUMBUS, Oct. Ii, A. N.
The election ia over, and at this hour it
looks as though the Republicans had car
ried Ohio by majority not less than
$1,000 on the general ticket, with their
candidate for secretary Of state running
several thousand behind his col
leagues. The returns are scattering rather
than in blocks of counties and cities which
makes it difficult to tabulate them and as
certain definitely the result, but I think
that the average Republican majority will
not be less than $1,000, and it is quite
probable that it will reach the figures Sc
cured by Foster in 1879, although
advices now at hand do not indi-
cate more than 10000 for Town
send, the head of the ticket. It ap-
pears also, OH incomplete returns, that the
following have been elected to Congress
Butterworth, Young, Money, Keifer, Rob-
inson, Rice, Neal, Updegraff, McKin-
ley, Mcclure, Taylor and Townsend,
twelve Republicans, and Lcfevre, Leedom,
Converse, Atherton and Geddes, five
Democrats, leaving four districts in doubt,
with probabilities slightly in favor of the
election of McMahon and Warner, Demo
Gratis. and Ritchie, Republican. Chairman
Nash claims the state for the Republicans
by 60, 900, and thirteen and possibly fifteen
congressman. Chairman Mckinney, for
the Democrats, comedies $4,000 average
majority on state ticket and eleven con-
gressmen to the Republicans. The Demo-
Gratis have realized their real expectations
as to the state ticket, but are terribly dis
appointed about the congressman.

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 12-Midnight.
At this hour not more than ninety of the
thirteen hundred voting precincts in the
state have been heard from. While the
gains and losses have gone up and down
during the night the net gain is in favor of
the Republicans and leads them to a feel
ing of confidence that they have carried the
state by small majority. The Democrats
do not conccde this. They are getting
dispatches in their headquarters which
are being read off by Nh. English. Senator
Mcdonald, Mr.. English and other men,
bers of the committee would do no more
when asked few moments ago than say
that the state is very close, but that Ian
ders would probably have majority.
They explain that few Of the returns so
far received are from the counties in which
Democratic gains were expected. On the
other hand, the Republicans say that 10
returns are in from the cities where the
greatest Republican gains were looked
for.
1t is the slOwcst state known for returns,
and it will be we'll into tomorrow before
any ward in this city will be returned.
The increase in the vote in indianapolis is
! nearly one thousand, at least seventy per
cent. Of which probably goes with the
Republicans, giving them majority of
about 1900 in Marion county. This is
not as much as they expected here, but
they are getting some unexpected gains
from the rural counties. Estimating the
precincts not heard from by the returns
now in, the Republican gains in tho state
will bo from G, 500 to 1000, which will give
the election to Porter by from 1000 to
n T. ~: -
be about the result.
AS near as can be ascertained from the
meagre returns ut hand the following have
been elected to Congress First district,
John J. Kliner, Democrat g; Second district
Thomas r. Cobb, Democrat Third dis
trict, S. NJ. Stockslager, Democrat Fourth
district, William S. Holman, Democrat :;
Fifth district, Court c. AIatson, Democrat
Sixth district, Thomas NJ. Browne, Re-
publican; Seventh district. Stanton J. Pcclle
Republican (probably); Eighth district,
r. B. Pierce, Republican Ninth district,
William r. Myers, Democrat Tenth dis
trict, Mark L. DeMott, Republican :;
Eleventh district, George w. Steele, Re-
publican :; Twelfth district, w. G. Colerck,
Democrat; Thirteenth district, W. II.
Calkins, Republican. No returns what
ever have been received on the Legislature
but the state was so districted that it will
require Republican majority of seven or
eight thousand on tho state ticket to give
the Republicans the Legislature.
The streets are full OF people at mid
night, tho Republicans cheering and sing
ing in chorus, while the Democrats arc
waiting and praying for better returns.
IA. M.-The additional returns keep up
about the average of Republican gains in
dicated in my midnight dispatch. The
Democrats now concede that it is possible
the Republicans have tho victory. Their
headquarters are crowded at this hour and,
under the unruffied urging of English,
they are endeavoring to figure out some
comfort. 1t is all against them.
Judge Scott, who was Democratic
candidate for the supreme bench, has just
gone home, declaring that the Republican
have carried Indiana. He was pretty dis
NAL. New, Dorsey and Gorham took
midnight lunch at the Denison and dis
cussed the situation. New says he is dis
appointed that the probably Republican
majority isn't larger than indicated. Cor
ham estimates that Porter's plurality will
