An Indiana correspondent Of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer, the leading Democratic
journal of Ohio, says that there is and

Continental hotel for a few days pre-
vious to her death, with her companion,

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Aug. IA
special election was held to-day in the
sixth ward, which is of general interest.
A Democratic councilman having re-
signed, David Phillips, Republican, was
elected by eighty-two majority over
Ernest Blewell, Democrat. Both parties
contested the election vigorously, and
brought out full vote. The ward is in
habited mostly by railroad men and
iron-workers. The Republicans gain a
majority of the council, and the control
of the city is transferred to them. The
result is regarded as of great import
ance. The Greenback vote, which used
to be so strong in the ward, was distrib-
uted between the old parties.
