The Destruction at Milton

Sudbury, Pa, May l5.--The scene at
Milton this morning, beggars description.
Nothing remains except the black and desc
lated ruins of aonce prosperous town. The
people spent last night in the houses that
we're left, namely the tile works and planning
mill. The number Of buildings destroyed
were six hundred and sixty-six, snd only
two places of business escaped destruction.
The vaults and books Of the banks
were unipjured. The people Of the town
are almost entirely destitute. Provisions have
been pouring into town from the surround.
ing country. The body of strange man.
who was burned last night, was identified
this morning as Mr.. Apgey. He was eight.
ty-tve years old, and was at work to save
the stable of the poor house. The fire origi
mated from sparks from saw mill attached
to the car works.

The Elections.

Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia

We are still without com
plete returns, and what we have are
not of the most cheering character.
Ohio is claimed by the Republicans
by from 10000 10 $4,000 majority, but
it is believed the full returns will
compel them to come down quite q
number. of cats from those figures.
Indiana Iis also claimed by the Re-
publicans, and the Indications are that
money, colonization and federal depu-
ty Marshals and supervisors have done
their complete work. The latest dis
patches claim Republican majority
of from 1900 10 1900, and nine mem-
bers of Congress.
West Virginia it is conceded has
gone Democratic, though the Repub-
llcans claim by a reduced majority.
No members of Congress were chosen
at. this election, their election being
postponed till the date of the Presi-
Dental contest in November.
q To carry Ohio and Indians, the Re-
publicans have resorted to every
scheme and device, whether fair OF

pensible to secure the election of Gar.

ACCORDING to the assertions of the
Radical papers and stumpers the ma
jority of the people of the United
States are disloyal to the government
and want it destroyed. They denounce
Democrats Unfortunately as being
traitors and secession sympathizers,
and yet in 1876 there was a majority
Of over a quarter of q million Demo-
crats in the country. The fact is that
the Radical leaders lie when they assert
that the people wish to destroy their

wrest it from the control of men who
are striving to convert it into a des-
