indianapolis, IL. : The Sentinel
I democratic, says: At 5 o'clock thi
morning there are still over q. thousAEc
precincts TO hear from. Republican
claim the state by 5000, but the return
, do not show it, and we hope when tn
remaining precincts are heard frou
Landers will be elected by a small
majority.
The Journal. republican. says only
smaller county precincts are heard from
Few if any Of the cities will be heard
from before morning, To-day the re
turns show gains which l. continued q
he same ratio would give repu olicAni
the stale by 5000 majority. Indian
apolis city and county incomplete re
turns, estimated republican majority
2,5c0, gain of 500; $50 Indiana pre-
cincts show dem cratic gain Of 2,47I
republican gain, $685. net republican
gain 3,se2.
Mr. Laniers comedies the election OF
Porter by about 4, 600 majority, sed thst
the Legislature will probably be republi-
car; $50 precincts show republican gain
3,9l5.
Clark County complete. gives demo
cratic majority Of 40; democratic loss,
749. The lStest returns from the First
Congressional District indicate a very
close contest, bsth parties claiming the
Official returns by counties show IN
Itwenty-three counties net republican
gains of 2,67S. There are nineiy-four
counties 10 the state. Later returns show
still more favorAbly for republicans. In
the First Congressional District Hsilman,
REPUBLICAN, is probably elected. That is
De La Matyr's district. This makes re-
publican gain of one in the Indiana con-
gressional delegation.
-Four hundred and ninety precincts
show q democratic gain of 8, 730. re-
publican gain of 1872; net republican
z in, 9,942.
Chicago, 13.-The TTi6uge'S special
from indianapolis says: The effect OF the
returns was no where more marked than
in the committee rooms. The republic
cans were jubilant and democrats cores
pondingly blue. Senator Dorsey esti.
mated that the state would give Porter
| 6, 1000 majority, and Ben. Harrison was
equally confident. The correspondent of
the Louisville C0uTIeT-JouT7sGJ puts the
republican majority at 1900. unless the
river counties save the democratic bacon.
At midnight the democratic committee
shut up Its rooms and stopped reading
the returns.
The Journals special from Indian
apolis SAYS: the present indications are
that Porter is sure 10 carry the state By
1000, while his msjo-ity may reach
1000. The legislature will be close,
owing to the fact that six more democra-
tic senators hold over than republican.
The chances, however, favor the later.
Republicans gain an average of nine to
each precinct. Republicans elect seven
and probably eight congressman Voor-
hees stilI refuses to give up the state.
Evansville, Ind, 12-The indications
here point to the election of Kleiner,
democrat, in this district
Terro Haute, 2-Democrats conclude
upon majority of $50, republicans
gain of l75. The returns thus far re-
ceived are nearly all from the smaller
precincts. No official returns from the |
cities or larger towns.
Chicago, IAN Indianapolis special
from the Tribune says, rs the election
proceeded it was evident that Landers
was being quietly, but industriourly
scratched, By two classes of democrats
the men who cannot stomsch him, and
the workingmen, who have special cause
to dislike him as no friend of the working
classes.
Chicago, 1S.-Daity Ne,0s Indiana
specials, say republican gain on complete
returns in Allen County, 26S; Carroll
l54, Morgan l24, Lass 268, Fayeite 2l5;
Marion 2ls, Noble 2l3. Republicans
elect seven congressman, gain Of l.
WEST VIRGINIA.
Whirling, w. Va, 12.-Returns from
thu state committee come slowly, and
there ia nothing as yet which indicates
clearly q change from last years vote
Returns from several precincts of this
city and county indicate that republic
cans have made decided gains, and all
indications point to largely increased
vote throughout the state.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Chicago, 12.-Inter-O ceGniS Wash
ington special: The streets are crowded
around the bulletin boards and there is
much excitement. The frat returns re-
ceived being very favorable tc repub,i-
cans, they are correspondingly elated.
At democratic headquarters the man
ayers look blue and confess that they
have no cheerful news to Offset that
which republicans are receiving.
1Tibune'S New York special: The
gereatest interest has been manifested
during the day in the result Of the cleo
tions in Indiana and Ohio. Crowds of
people were besieging newspaper offices,
eagerly scanning the meagre and IN
satisfactory reports that came in during
the afternoon. In the evening the crowds
increased and thousands of people
swarmed the streets In front of the
bulletin boards. Elaborate preparations
had been made for displaying the news,
and as fast as the returns ca in they
were posted up where they could be seen
by all. Fifth Avenue Hotel was througed
and the streets outside were filed. There
was very little betting going on, both
sides being too iimid. When returns
finally made it apparent thst republicans
had carried Ohio by a coed majority,
and had probably triumphed in indiana,
grand shout went up from the crowd Ia
front of the Times and Tribune offices,
while the democracy gathered in front Of
the Sun and World offices suddenly dis
appeared.
New York, IL. The Herald says:
The vote is so close in both Ohio and
Indiana that complete returns will not be
obtsinable for a day or two, but the
details at hand show such republican
gains in both states as denote decisive
democratic defeat. In Ohio, Hamilton
County, the democratic stronghold, has
gone republican, and the republicans
claim q plurslity of 20,0O0 on the state
ticket and heavy gain in congressman.
Indiana is in doubt. Both claim 1t Is
we go to press, but it is apparent that if
even the democrats carry it 1t will be by
no such majority as the ZOO they hsc
two years ago; that is to say, the demo-
Gratis are substantially beaten. lift shall
turn out that they have elected their
governor by a reduced msjorlty, this will
be but small comfort for them consider
ing the result IN Ohio. They hoped and
looked for vote which should show the
other states that the set of the tide was
sgsinst the republicans. and they have
acknowledged that on il their chief expec-
tations of success depended in November,
