the best avenues Of information the State is
likely to give Cleveland eighty thousand and
1t may 90 much above that figure. The
Congressional delegation will probably show
Democratic gain of one or two. The AS
sembly will be very close. Governor Hoyt's
letter has had a marked effect In this State.
EVENING JOURNAL, Rep.
THE ''stfN" CLAIMS 10000 FOR CLEVELAND.
tThe Sun Ind.l
NEW YORK, Nov. GIVE think that
Cleveland, the Democratic nominee for
Governor, will have 10000 majority or
more that Is per cent. OF the Republican
voters will stay at home; that the Demo-
Gratis will gain two or three Congressman in
the State, and that they will elect enough
| Assemblymen to make the Assembly Demo-
cratic by from q to 10 majority. Also, that
Edison, the United Democratic candidate
for Mayor, will be elected, and that there
| will be much scratching aud cutting of the
other local candidates.
BUTLER CLAIMING MASSACHUSETTS.
BosToN, Nov. Cit is extremely difficult
to predict the result of the pending election
with any degree of accuracy. Estimates
| made by those having exceptional oppor-
tunities for acquiring inside information
differ widely The Democrats claim the
State for Butler by from $4,000 to 10000
majority. The Republicans for Bishop by
about the same figures; the probability Is
that Bishop will run in by from 1000 TO
5000. In the Congressional districts Davis,
Long, Ranney, Converse, Stone, Russell,
Rice, Whiting and Robinson, all Republi-
cans, will be chosen. Collins, Democrat,
will be elected. The chances for Lyman in
the Ninth district are fair. If the Demo-
Gratis will support him squarely he will de-
feat Candler. In the Fifth, Bowman, Stall
wart, is strong, but Leopold Morse has
good fighting chance.
The HERALD, Ind.
BITTER FIGHT IN VIRGINIA.
RICHMOND, Nov. 6.-There are no figures
to go on In this fight. Malone claims the
State~by 10000, but the anti-Mahone men
are making counter-claims and say that
Mahone's figures are given out merely for
effect. The only fight is on Congressman
and the issue of Malone and anti Malone is
| upon the Congressman-at-Large. The
election Of Wise, Mahone's man, would
be an endorsement of bossism, while
the election of Massey would show
that power is slipping from Mahone's
hands. The campaign has been
an exceedingly bitter one. Malone has
used a great deal of money among the
| negroes, but it is thought that many of them
will desert him. The Democrats are claim.
4
| adjusters who followed Malone when the
| State debt was an issue are now back in the
| party. The Democrats claim Massey for
Congressman at-Large and six OF the nine
| Congressional districts, leaving Malone but
| three. One of the three will be elected be-
cause Of the candidacy Of two Democrats.
THE CHANCES IN CONNECTICUT.
NEW HAVEN, CONN, Nov. 6-The State
| is In doubt with the chances slightly in
| favor OF the election of Waller, Democrat,
| for Governor. The liquor law question has
entered largely into the canvass, and many
| Germans will vote with the Democrats for
| the first time. Waite, Republican, will be
| returned to Congress in the Third district,
| and the chances are against the election of
Eaton, Democrat, in the First and Mitchell,
Democrat, in the Second. Semour, Demo-
crat, will without much doubt be chosen in
the Fourth, so that the result will be three
Republican Congressman to one Democrat,
| the same as during the last four years. The
contest for Congressman, however, will be
close In all but the Third district, and no
one can foretell the result. The Legislature
will be Republican.
NEW HAMPSHIRE VERY cLosR.
MANCHESTER, N. H., Nov. Ono accur-
ate poll of the State has been made by
| either. party and it is therefore difficult TO
predict the result with any accuracy. The
| Republican disaffection is said to be large,
! but It is an unknown quantity. The proba-
billties incline to the election Of Edgerly, the
Democratic candidate for Governor by q
majority not exceeding 1900, with the re-
mainder of the State ticket Republican.
There seems to be little doubt thst Rspubli-
cans will be elected to Congress from both
districts by small though safe majorities.
The Legislature will probably be close,
| owing to the feeling as TO Senatorial candi-
dates.
GOOD WORDS FROM INDIANA.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 6.---The most cheer
ing news from all parts ofthe State has been
received at the Democratic Committee
rooms to-day. Unless all political signs fail
the State will 90 at least 10000 Democratic
tomorrow. The majority may reach as
| high as 10000. The indications now point
to the election of nine Democrats
to Congress out of thirteen, which
will be gain OF four. Chairman Mcdonald
and Senator Voorhees, claim the election of
| ten Congressman, the Legislature and the
| State ticket by from 5000 to 10000 ma
| jority. John C. New, Col. Dudley and
other Republican leaders concede the State
to the Democrats, and admit that they will
lose two IL not three Congressman. Both
parties held immense meetings throughout
the State to-day, though it has raiDed in
many places.
The Democrats ctaim that they will carry
indianapolis, Lafayette, Terre Haute, and
Evansville by large majorities. These are
the largest cities In the State, and have
heretofore gone Republican. If this claim
is made good, the Democrats will carry 10
Of the Congress districts. The Democrats
are much e1ated tonight and the Republi-
cans corrcspondingly depressed.
THE OUTLOOK IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
COLUMBUS, s. c., Nov. 6.-Advices from
all parts of the State indicate that the
election will pass off quietly and peaceably.
1t is generally conceded that the entire
Democratic State ticket will be elected by
an overwhelming majority, as will also
the Democratic candidates for Congress
in the Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth
districts. In the Seventh, or black district,
the Democrats have no candidate, the race
being between Z. w. NJ. Mackey. regular
Republican, and Sam Lee (coloredl, inde-
pendent Republican. The chances appear
to be In favor of Lees election, as he will
receive the solid Democratic vote. Tho race
in the Second district between Tllman Dem
ocrat, and BraytoD, Republican, will be
close, and the result is exceedingly doubt
full.
GEORGIA SOLID, AS USUAL.
ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 6.-The Democratic
majority of $1,000, by which Stephens car
ried the State month ago, will probably
be maintained in the Congressional elections.
Georgia gains one Congressman who Is to be
elected at large, and will be certainly Demo
cratic. In five districts there lie no opposi
