In New York City--Reports
From Other States.


"a Republican and 10 Democrats. A Repub-
lican Sheriff was elected in Hartford, Holland,
Middlesex, Fairfield and New London. The
county's vote this of years how marked Re-
publican gains.
Nav YORK, November 6.-Returns fro m
49, polling places of the 25oo in the State
outside Of this city, give Maynard Is, 500 votes
Carr 90, f4t votes for Secretary oi.Staie. This
vote has already wiped out the majority for
Maynard in New York City, and secures the
election OF Carr.
ToPEKA, November 6.-There will be but
meagre election returns from Kansas tonight.
There are only the county officers and Judges
TO elect, but as there are three or four tickets
in each county it will take till morning to
count the votes.
HARTFORD, November 6--The election in
Connecticut was for half the Senate, 2 mem
bers, and all the members Of the House o f
Representatives, and Sherifs in eight coun-
ties. The returns at the Courant Office, at 8
O'Clock, show that the Republicans have car
RED the Legislature, probably by 30 majority
on joint ballot, and probably have nine OF
the ~ Senators.
Boston, November 6.-The Journal will
say in an editorial: What Appomatox was
TO the Confederacy the election Of yesterday is
to Butler and Buterism. Both the man and
thing have been annihilated. For such 4 re-
suit the decent people not only Of Massachu-
sets, but OF both parties throughout the
country should be profoundly thankful, be-
cause the one man in this country who could
rally about him the Ignorant and vicious ele-
ments has been cast down for the last time.
LINCOLN, Neb., November 6.-The cleo
ton is creating no special interest The con-
test for judge excites some animation. The
Regents are conceded to the Republicans
or the 10 District Judges to be elected eight
are conceded to the Republicans. The first
and seventh are Democrats. Reports will be
made on the vote for Supreme Judge, and
comparison with the vote for Governor of last
year, when Downs lacked 1000 Of a majority
over the Democrats and anti-monopolists.
CHICAGO, November 6.-The election in
this city and county to-day was for one Judge
of the Superior court and five County Com
missioners. But little interest was taken and
a light vote was polled. There are nearly
complete returns from the city at this hour,
and the estimate of the county vote indicates
the divided result. The probabilities are that
Jamison, Republican, for Judge, was elected
by narrow majority and the Democrats
elected three County Commissioners, the Re-
publicans one and one in doubt. There were
no special issues OF stake, and the result
seems to haveturned on personal popularity.
BosToN, November 6.-The Globe, the
Democratic organ, comedies Robinson's cleo
ton by 10000 majority. The Traveller claims
20, 900, the Herald claims 20, 600 majority and
upwards, and the Advertiser in an extra thinks
that Robinson's majority will exceed 1900.
The Traveller says Lieutenant Governor Ames
was elected by $4,000 majority. The Re-
publicans held an enthusiastic meeting at
Faneuil hall tonight. Revised footngs of
200 towns and cities give Robinson majority
OF H. 600 and the Republicans claim Of total
majority Of 5000, and over will be sustained.
Worcester county, complete, gives Robinson
22,977; Butler, IS. $50. The vote is the largest
ever thrown. The Republicans will elect all
five Senators and 20 out Of 81 Representatives.
PHILADELPHIA, November O. w. U
Hensal, Chairman OF the Democratic
State committee, has issued the fol-
lowing; "The Republican majority
in Philadelphia exceeds the most san
guine Republican calculations. 1t wipes out
all our estimated majority. but The country
districts hold up TO our figures, and until the
western counties are heard from, do not con-
cede the State to the opposition" Chairman
Cooper, Of the Republican State committee,
estimates that his party has carried the State
by not less than 10000 majority. He says
that returns come in so slowly that the exact
result cannot be ascertained until morning.
ST. PAUL, November Oft is a beautiful
day, and an unusually large vote is being
polled. The main fight is being made be-
tween the candidates for Governor. The Re-
publicans have renominated the entire
schedule of present State officers with Gov
ernor Hubbard at the head. The Democratic
candidate for Governor is a Norwegian, A.
Bierman. Over two-thirds of the Republican
voters are OF that nationality. Hubbard had
majority of over 10000 last time. The
leading Republicans claim 10000 for him this
time. Few Democrats concede more than
1000. Sixty eight towns outside OF St. Paul
and Minneapolis give Hubbard, Republican,
for Governor, 2o44 majority over Bierman,
Democrat. The Secretary of the Central Re-
publican committee estimates Hubbard's ma
jority at not less than ? 900 and the balance
of the Republican ticket at $4,000.
RICHMOND, November 6.-The election in
this State is the most exciting since 1869 when
the conservative party was organized. Half
the Senate and the entire House of Delegates
are to be elected, and this legislature reappor-
tons the State for congressional representa-
ton and elects most of the heads of State de-
partments. The new Senators vote Tor sue
cessor to United States Senator Malone The
race issue was never before so strongly
marked. A dispatch from Charlottesville says
that the Democrats claim the county by
large majority, and also, as far as heard from,
in the State, there has been majority for the
Democrats. A man from West Virginia was
there to-day giving the colored men incendiary
circulars, advising them to vote for the Re-
adjusters and resist the whites. Attempts
were made to arrest him, but he escaped.
The leading Readusters denounce the mans
action.
BALTIMORE, November 6.-The election in
Maryland to-day is for Governor, State Comp
troller, Attorney General and Legislature, ex-
ceping one-half of the Senate who hold over,
