TORONTO, Nov. Ga special dispatch
from Ottawa, Ontario, says 'FSince
the taking up Of his residence at Rideau
Hall the Marquis of Lansdowne has re-
ceived a number of anonymous letters
threatening his life. The matter is being
investigated. Although the Governor
General is not greatly alarmed
1T is believed that the letters are
sent by mischievOus persons anxious to
annoy him, or possibly by some who are
anxious to obtain employment as extra
detectives. The Marquis of Lorne re-
ceived a number of threatening letters
last winter. 1t is scarcely to be believed
that scoundrels who would contemplate
injuring the Governor General would
take the precaution to warn him of their
intentions before hand.

Cook County, Illinois, Divided.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-The election in this
city and county to-day was for one Judge
OF the Superior Court and five County
commissioners. There was little interest
taken in it, and but a light vote was
polled. Nearly complete returns from
this city at 1880 o'clock, and an estimated
county vote, indicates a divided result.
The probabilities are that Jameson, Re-
publican, for Judge, has been elected by
a narrow majority. The Democrats elect
three County Commissioners, the Republi-
cans one, and there is one still in doubt.
There were no special issues at stake,
and the results seem to have turned on
personal popularity.
