THE OHlOCONTEAT,
Predictions and Estimates ~ B"th
Parties.

The New York Tribune OF to-day
says:
A canvass of Ohio made by nnparti
san persons indicates that the Republl'
can candidates for State offices will be
elected and that there will be a iepub-
lican Legislature. Mr.. Hoadly, the
Democ ratio candidate for Governor, ID
of the opinion that the State will bt
carried by the Republicans If there
should be- a full vote while Judge
Foraker, the Republican candidate, ap-
pears sanguinc OF success. Democratic
leaders nevertheless, still claim that
the State will go Democratic, evidently
hoping that the prohibition movement
will decrease the Republican vote.
Gov. Foster, Rep. ; The impression is
that the vote will be large-not less
than 700, 600, and that the Republicans
will carry the State, but not by large
majority.
j. Il. McLean's opinion believe
Hoadly will beat Foraker. The mex
Legislature will elect a DEM cratic
United States Senator.
What well informed man says
"Since the opening Of the campaist
| have been all over the STATE and
have viewed the situation from an IN
dependent point of view. After care
full survey Of the field mp to Ia day,
feel safe in predicting The ltpublcal
State ticket will be elected by a 'najorlt.
of about 5000 or 1000. The Legislature
consider in doubt. The Democratic
ticket in Cincinnati will be elected, bu'
the KeE ublicans will undoubtedly carr.
Gle, Gland by small majority and th'
entire Western Reserve by a large ma
jority.
What Judge Hoadly thinks: Judg'
Hoadly spoke III Dayton Saturday
night and remained there over Sunday
In an interview lie said the election
would be very close, with the chances
in favor of Foraker in the event OF /
full vote being poIled. He fears tina
the interest which has been developed
III the second amendment will bring q
lar er Republican stay-at-home vote
He feels quite certain however, that tn
Germans will pretty generally vote tn
Democratic ticket.
Foraker won't talk The Tribun
correspondent says: An attempt wa
made To- day to interview Judge Forake
as 10 the public result He was fount
at his home on the Walnut Hills, rest
ing from the fatigue of remarkabl
energetic canvass. He was in gool
spirits and evidently sanguine of beinI

FOURTH EDITION,
A CO WARDLY ASSAULT.
A Young Man Badly Beaten At the
Logan House.

Last Saturday night John Cleaning
and another young man were standihg
in the bar room at the Logan House,
when a party OF five half drunken
roughs who were in the room stepped
up to the bar and called for drinks.
One of the number laid down Two
dollar note, which, as he turned MS
head, was picked up by another one OF
the party, who put 1t in his pocket.
When the one who had placed the note
on the bar found that it was gone, he
inquired what had become of it, and
upon the gang protesting that none OF
them had taken it, he appealed to the
bartender, who pointed out the one
who had it.
He denied taking it, and Glenning,
upon being asked, corrobofated what
the bartender had said. The one who
had the note applied language to him
unfit for publication, and said he would
get even with him. The party then
vent out, and in short time after
wards two beer glasses were missed.
Mr.. Cleaning remained in the house for
sometime after they left, and Young
man who came in warned him to be on
his guard, as the party were on the out
side connecting a plot to wayIay hun.
In little while he stepped OUT the
back door, when one Of the pa ty came
up TO him, and offering him his hand,
said that he did not want him to have
any bad feeling toward them for what
had passed.
Mr.. Cleaning took his protferetl hand,
and on the instant the fellow held him,
while the others commenced TO beat
him. Two of them had the glasses
missed from the room, and they beat
him with them until his head was
covered with cuts and the glasses
broken TO pieces.
They tried hard to get him down, and
if they had succeeded would probably
have killed him, but his cries for Az
sistance brought officers Nicely and Nc
Kendrick, when the party with the ex-
ception of one made their escape in the
darkness. The one captured was taken
TO the hall, and will have hearing
this evening. Mr.. Cleaning was taken,
covered with blood and almost blinded,
to DR.. Palmer's office, where his wounds
were attended to. one or two gashes
in his forehead had to be Sewcd up, and
his nose, which is split, drawn together
with sticking plaster.

A Good Thing.

The new fire alarm indicator, which
has been on trial in the battery room at
the City Hall for the past week, has
proved satisfactory, and was purchased
by the Delaware Truck Company, and
placed in their house. 1t has a face
like clock and indicates Immediately
when an alarm is sounded, the number
OF the box from which it is sent, thereby
preventing confusion, and will doubtless
prove of great advantage. Its test at
ga. IN. yesterday was satisfactory. The
Indicators are manufactured by Moses
G. Crane, of Boston, and Superintend'

I A|RD EDITION.
A COuey lslaud Political slate.

The State Sentinel Says: We notice
that some of the Wilmington papers
are try ing to stir up some excitement
over the county Offices in that county.
There are several applicants out spend
ing their time and money getting sign
ers iavoring them for appointment to
the position held by Mr.. Thomas Hol-
comb as Recorder of Deeds AL such
persons might AS well stop and save
their ammunition, told up their tents
and put them away. The Pear-ty is
safe-they are not looking after votes
now. Not so much so as they were at
the time of the meeting of the leaders at
Coney Island little over u year ago,
when the deal was made and the offices
so far as concerns New Castle County
were pareelled out and the slate all fix
ed. 1t was done on the sly, but like
all sucn matters it has leaked out and
has caused much talk in political cir
cles for months past. Mr.. Holcomb
will be re-appointed, as will Mr.. +. K.
Cochran, the Clerk of the Peace. So
also will Mr.. George Gray, the present
Attorney-General.
All threee of the above offices were in
the bargain, as well as Uncle Ellis
place. The Governor and the Pear-ry
were badly frightened at the time, and
were not only willing but anxious to
enter into any kind of a deal that would
be likely to insure sccess Hence the
bargain that Uncle Eli was 10 20 back
to the Senate without the opposition OF
the Governor, which he did, although
there is not parallel case in the Uni
ted States Of man being elected to the
United States Senate who has not a
dozen either personal or political friends
in the State. The rest of the bargain
will be carried out as fast as the obliga-
lions become du and those patriots in
New Castle County who desire to serve
the party will have to occupy the back
benches and have new patches put on
their pants.
The Attorney Generals Office ought tC
g 10 Al. Robinson of Sussex County
who made the nomination of Governor
Stockley possible aid who put him il
nomination in the convention. he Is
one of the most brilliant young men IL
Sussex and deserves this recognition
But, unfortunately for Mr.. Robinson
he is not made of the material of which
machine IN an is composed. Heis al
independent thinker. and expresses his
thoughts freely. He would make one
of the most brilliant Attorney Generals
the State has had. John Payn.
ter, who was candidate tor the place
before the deal was made, is not push
ing his claim now, but he in company
with 80 others is laying for Uncle Ell
shoes. But they are much too smal
for John. The band is playing, al,
John w. Causey is the stage manager
Geo. Bates is being crow drd by some o
the New Castle boys, and there ar
signs that a storm is gathering back o
the camp that will cause trouble before

count of the rain the game
dia not take place. On account
of tie Encouragement that mana

hold of the club, he concluded that 1t
was best disband the same, as the
championship season was over and the
people did not seem to take much inter
es, in the exhibition games.

for several weeks at 4 serious loss to
himself, and is deserving of much cred
it for his pluck. a, the matter now
stands the prospect for club here next

something may turn up before the open
ing of next season.
