Especial Dispatch to the Ece7lifln Stdr.l
NEW YORK, Nov. 2.--EX-SenatOr Dorsey gives
your correspondent the following estimate by
the national republican committee of the result
to-day: "Our Information from all the states
warrants me In estimating Garfeld's electoral
vote at not less than 900, with chances In IA
yor OF his having nineteen more. There is
scarcely doubt but he will carry the Pacific
states by larger maJorities than formerly.
Nevada and Colorado are certain for us from
our latest infOr nation by telegraph.
Our majority in Indiana will be maintained
though the democrats are making special and
most energetic effort to recover the state.
Wisconsin viii give us not less than $4,000 ana
reason to expect from q. 900 to 10000 majority
for Garfield. In Ohio and Pennsylvania it Is
only question OF ma1Orfties.

State Committe of New York, and Governor

under 10000. New York can be counted as Ger
tain for GARFIELD as any state In the Union.
