CINCINNATI, Oct. 1.-THE vote poled to-day
is 20 per cent larger than ever polled before.
A number of slight disturbances took place at
the polls, but except in one instance the police
were able to preserve order, that was in the
9Th ward where the Republicans asked the aid
OF the police to give them an equal chance at
the polls Two men attacked police
man and tore off his clothes. Extraord-
mary precautions were taken to preserve the
peace. Sheriff Weber organized force Of
special aides at each polling place., but his au-
thority to make arrests was not recognized and
houses. The militia was called out by the
mayor and were kept all day at the armory
and discharged when the polls were closed.
There is great crowd on the streets anxious
to hear the news Returns from four precincts
in Hamilton county show a net Democratic
gain of IS.
The first return was from Green Camp
township, Union county which gives Nc Ilvaine
1T, Fallett 1863, a Republican gain of IS.
SEVENTH DESPATCH.
COLUMBUS, Oct 12.-In 229 townships the
net Republican gain is 1879.
At the Republican headquarters claims are
now made that the majority in the State will
be considerably over 10000. There is great
enthusiasm. AT the Democratic headquarters
returns have been received which, up to this
hour, give the Democrats a net gain of over
500 in the State. At the latter place it is
claimed the Republican gains may not improb-
ably be dissipated as returns come in from re-
mote counties which are generally Democratic.
EIGHTH DIsPATcH.]
Returns from % precincts in Hamilton coun-
ty show net Democratic gain of 467. This is
nearly one third os the county and indicates a
net Democratic gain 1900. This would still
leave Republican majority in the county of
24OO.
NINTH DEsHATCH
COLUMBUS, Oct. Eight townships in
Clark county, including Springfield city, give
Republican majority of 1766, a Republican
gain of 349. Only two small townships yet to
hear from in the county.
[FENTH DEsPATcH.]
Returns from this city come in very slowly,
only one ward being complete to this hour.
The first ward gives 156 Republican majority,
which is claimed as considerable Republican
gain although no definite figures figures can
be given owing to the re-districting. From
outside the city returns continue to steadily
increase the Republican gain, with the
exception Of those from Hamilton
county where as shown by all
returns received to present time there was
gain for the Democrats in nearly eveary pre-
cinct. This does not seem to tally with the
earlier report of hamilton county, having
given an increased Republican majority. One
quarter of the whole number of precincts and
townships in the State are now in, and the net
Republican gain is 1864. If the proportion
holds goodtthe Republican gain in the State
over Follett, for Spreme Conrt, will be about
1900. Although the Republicans are san
guine of reaching that figure, the Democrats
have no4 given up their claim of carrying the
State, and it seems likely later returns will
somewhat diminish the heavy and unlocked
for gains which the Republicans have been
making.
Midnight-No definite returns are received
at either the Republican or Democratic head
quarters nor by regular sources as to the COM
piCAloA VI VIC uOAo CONGRESSIONAL ucloSdUiUu
from Ohio. The Democratic State central
committee make no estimate or prediction.
Chairman Nash of the Republican COM
mittee says it is now likely that the Republi-
can majority on the State ticket will insure the
election of 10 and probably of Is Republican
Congressman.
ELEVENTH DISPATCH.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 12.-Akran city complete
gives 725 Republican majority, a gain OF 224.
In Cleveland Lang runs LARGELY ahead of the
Democratic ticket. The probabilities are that
Charles Townsend, Republican candidate for
Secretary of State, will have 5000 majority in
the county and Amos Townsend, Republican
candidate for Congress will have 5000
dispatches by the American Union.)
