as perfect confusion reigned when the
news from Ohio and Indiana was coming
In constantly. Updegraf has majority
OF 7 in the Third ward-being 10 ahead Of
the ticket.
The Democratic hall was crowded also,
but the leaders were of at the telegraph
office, trying to get nearer headquarters
that not a morsel Of hope might fall before
they got 1t. Their hall was closed at II
o'clock.
An offer was sent to the Republican hall
at ten o'clock offering to bet on 1900
Republican majority in Ohio. A rousing
cheer was raised when 1t was discovered
that the same gentleman had wanted to
bet even in the morning. II the majority
reached twenty thousand, said some one,
the Democrats will claim that they did 1t.
This allusion to their claim OF having put
down the Rebellion was received as the
best joke out.

HAMILToN COUNTY.
Most Encouraging Reports OF the Result
nj Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI, October 12.-Further dis.
patches indicate that the vote exceeds any
vote by twenty thousand. Republicans
look upon this fayorably and think the
State ms jority will reach $4,000. Dispatches
from all over the State indicate very
heavy vote polled, especially in Hamilton
county. Both Republicans and Democrats
worked quietly and hard TO get out every
vote in the county. At this hour 1t Is i'm
possible even to give probability as to
how the State will go. Republicans claim
the State by from 10000 to 1900. The
Lincoln club claim Hamilton county has
gone Republican by $500 msiority. The
vote'polled to day is unprecedented. In the
Fifth ward, for instance, wherel 400 were
polled at the Congressional election two
years ago, over 1900 votes have been cast
Today. It is difficult now to predict the
results. Prominent Republicans claim
