5000, and will probably exceed that figure
somewhat. The vote in the city has been
very close to 70,00o. There was no Social
ist ticket; the Irish Republican vote dis
appointed the Republicans by its small
ness, and the Germans fearing that their
beer privileges would be curtailed, cut the
Republican ticket heavily. The Demo-
cratic vote remains about the same as in
the Presidential election, while the Repub-
licans fell away through staying at home
and influences above noticed. There is no
doubt that the Democrats made a clean
sweep. although by less majority than for
Mayor. As to Aldermen, the Republicans,
so far as heard from, made a gain of one,
and the Council remains Republican as at
present. The new Council will stand is
Republicans. Independent, Is Democrats,
and 2 Socialists. This is q net Republic
can gain Of one; the Democrats having
gained three, and the Republicans three
Councilmen. The Republicans now claim
the election Of Raber, Republican, for
Treasurer, but concede that Harrison has
from 5000 to 5000 majority, and that all
the other offices will be filed by Demo-
Gratis.
OMAHA, April 6.-The Democrats have
elected Joseph E. Boyd, their candidate
for Mayor, and carried the general city
ticket and all the ward candidates. with
one or two exceptions. The whole city
government will be reorganized under the
new law at this election, and the victory is
regarded as most important.
COLUMBUS (Ohio), April 6.-The entire
Democratic ticket is elected by majorities
ranging from 900 down.
MILWAUKEE, April 6.-The Democrats
made large gains in the State on account
Of the passage of the anti-treating laws
by the Republican Legislature. Orsamus
Cole is elected Chief Justice and J. B.
Cassidy, Associate Justice OF the Supreme
Court. Both are Republicans. There was
no opposition to them.
CINCINNATI, April 6.-Unoficial footings
show that Means. Democrat, is elected
Mayor by 2,469 majority. All the rest of
the city ticket is Republican, except one
member of the Board of Education. The
Council stands: Republicans, so; Demo-
Gratis, IS; Board of Education, Republi-
cans, "a; Democrats, 10.
ST.. LOUIS, April 6.-The following is the
vote for Mayor: Ewing, Republican, a.
COS; Overstoltz, Democrat, II, 1853; Ewing's
majority is IS, 255. The remainder of the
Republican ticket is elected by majorities
ranging from 1900 to 5000. Six Repub-
lican members in the Upper House in the
Municipal Assembly received a majority of
from 4,500 to 5000. This is not claimed
as a straight Republican victory, but is
the result Of q bitter contention among the
Democrats. The complexion of the Lower
House Of the Assembly cannot be given
yet, but the probability is that a large ma
jority of the Republican candidates are
elected.
GARFIELD stands Firm.
WASHINGTON. April 5.-The President
in conversation in reference to the New
York nominations said he had nothing
whatever to reproach himself with so far as
Conkling is concerned. The President
holds that Conkling has really NO cause for
grievance against the administration. In
the Sunday afternoon interview between
the President and Conkling, of which so
much has been said, the President was un-
reserved in his acknowledgements of the
obligations which he felt toward all the
different factions Of the Republican party
in New York, for he realizes very fully
that unless they had all pulled together in
his behalf he would not nov be sitting in
the White House, but he took particular
pains to impress upon the Senator that he
could not for one moment think in his pub
lie acts Of recognizing divisions Of the
party or of giving the patronage of the
Government to any one Of the factions in
such a manner as to be considered as taking
sides with either. Yesterday the Presi.
dent had a long conference with o dis
ting uished Republican Senator, during the
course of which the whole situation in the
Senate and elsewhere was talked over. AS
a result Of this conference the Senator was
authorized to communicate to his associates
that the President was of the opinion that
the subject was one for the Senate itself
and itself alone to dispose of; that the execu-
been done and that he had no opinion
whatever to express in the matter.
Change of Sentiment in the south
ON the Subject of Education.
New YORK, April General Armstrong
is now in Boston raising money for his
Hampton Indian and Negro School. Dur
ing q conference with some OF the leading
Boston philanthropists in the parlor of the
Vendome Hotel, he said The change Of
sentiment in the Sonth on the subject of
education within the past fifteen years is
the most wonderful in the history of civ
ilization. No one Of the colored teachers
graduated at Hampton has encountered
hostility. Everywhere the best white peo-
pie welcome and encourage them. The
worst opposition comes from the illiterate
colored preachers Of the old type. Another
interesting fact mentioned by General
Armstrong is that the Southern colleges
for white youths are crowded with young
fellows b are living on hominy in order
to get an education.
Chandler Content to Take His
Chances.
WASHINGTON, April Ga new England
friend Of VIM. E. Chandler said yesterday
that the rejection Of his nomination as So
licitor General, by a solid Democratic vote
in the Senate, would make his political for
tune in New Hampshire, and result in his
to the United States Senate to fill
the next vacancy. This may account for
the nonchalance with which Chandler re-
the reports Of the threatened Demo-
cratic opposition to his confirmation, and
says he is content to take his chances.
