How the ResuIt In ohio was Received In
This City Yesterday.


This City Yesterday.
The news from Ohio was anxiously in
qulred for everywhere in the city yester-
day. Gentlemen who, when the early re-
ports Of Republican gains began to come
in Tuesday night tIrequented public places
and. showed their betting books with odds
on Foraker, suddenly disappeared, while IN
their places were Others who rubbed their
hands in quiet satisfaction and smiled q
bland, Observation-Disclosures smile.
The eagerness Tor news amounted TO al
most ctszs. The ISTELLIGESCER's extra
with the latest returns was out at noon,
and they were seizad by waiting purchasers
faster than they could be handed out. Tne
presses were kept running until after !
o'clock. City Subscribers were served with
the extra ire By carriers, and large num-
Der were sold and given away over the
counter and disposed Of BY newsboys. The
scene when the first copies were ready in
the counting room resembled that at
railroad lunch stand when delayed ex-
cursion train pulls up. The effort TO fur
nish the public with fresh and reliable

regarded as the only authoritiye pro-
mitigation OF the news during the day,
The scenes about town last night were
scarcely les animated than the night be-
fore. An occasional group OF Republicans
would be found explaining the result and
expressing their opinions Of prohibition as
an element in political campaign; or u
group oil Democrats congratulating each
other over the unexpected victory.
As the news began 10 be more definite,
and the result was reasonably certain,
there was less anxiety, and by midnight
the streets were comparatively quiet.

In 100 precincts the vote stands:

The other precincts are email and

result. This is a Republican

runs ahead OF Foraker. The
county ticket appears about 1000

all the Democrats, but there are variations
which make it probable that several Re-
