An ABSURD sensational Rumor.

An Absurd ScnsetionHi AumOr.
SAN Francisco, Oct. l0.-An alarming
rumor is circulated that Geo. +. Rogers,
who arrived in this city from Mazatlan,
and who for day remained here, had
died in Piedmont, Alameda county, of
yellow fever. 1t is also stated that
Rogers was privately buried from the
parlors Of an undertaking firm in Oak
land. The strangest part of the rumor
is that this man Rogers is supposed to
be still on the lighter prepared for the
remaining yellow fever patients. DIR.
McAllister, Quarantine Officer, being
questioned on the subject said there was
but one patient on board the lighter
under the care Of the nurse. The doctor
had no list Of the arrivals by the New
bern and the agent Of the steamship line
could not be found. The rumor says
the nurse has been ashore, that she has
no patient in her charge and that the
man who is still supposed to be aboard
the quarantined lighter Is the man who
died in Piedmont and was buried from
Oakland.
Republican Claims In Iowa
DEs MONIES, Ia, Oct. l0.--The Re
publican State Committee claim the re-
suit to be as follows: $4,000 gives Sher-
mans plurality and rs, 600 Judge Reeds;
II and probably 23 Of the 20 new Sena-
tors, giving the Republicans 81 and
probably 80 OF the Senators. OF the
House they will get AZ Republican mem
bers certainly elected and 80 Democrat
or Fusion. OF 3S members unreported.
lS will be Republican. Five townships

Kinne SOC. The Republican candidates
for the Legislature will certainly be
elected.
PelftIcal Probabilities In Ohio.
CoLuMBUs, Oct. l0.-At midnight the
result on the State ticket and the Leg.
islature is in doubt Chairman Barger,
OF the Democratic Committee, says he
thinks their majority will be about 1000
on the State ticket and that they will
carry the Legislature. The Republicans
expect to elect the Legislature by few
hundred, but concede that 1t depends
on the results at Cincinnati and Cleve-
land. The returns are SO meagre that
neither committee is over confident.
Moadiey's Chances
CrScISNArr, Oct. l0.-Iion. Ejgar Nj.
johnson, Judge Hoadley's partner, claims
that he has private dispatches showing
large Democratic gains in Lucas and
Montgomery counties. He says the
Democrats also have the Legislature.
CoLuNBrs, Oct. l0-Returns from
67l wards and precincts show net Re-
publican gain Of 1903. The second
amendment is probably defeated. No
returns on the amendment have been re-
ceived from Hamilton county or Cleve-
land. In Hamilton county the Leeisla-
tive ticket is close with the chances in
favor OF the Republicans. Hoadley will
probably carry Hamilton county by
small majority. No reliable informa-
ton up TO this hour, 3:l0 A. M, in re-
gard to the legislature. Unless Gin.
einnati should deyelope an unexpected
strength the second amendment will be
defeated. At the present rate the Re-
publican net gain will be about $4,000,
but the tendency OIL later returns Is for
an increased gain. In 705 wards and
precincts the net Republican gain is
1880. The total vote is 205, 1857; second
amendment los, SOL.
Foraker Running Ahead OF the
Ticket.
CrScrNNATI, Oct. lO.--Mr. Halstead,
Of the Commercial Gazette, says Foraker
will have a small majority and the Re-
publicaas will have the Legislature by a
close vote. He gives praise TO the Ger
man Republicans for their faithfulness.
A private dispatch says Van Wort coun-
" gives Foraker 100 majority; in High
land county Foraker is running consider
sbiy ahead Of his ticket.
Hopeful fsr the Democrats.
C1scIHNArI. Oct. l0.-The CONNER
cinl. Cazefte, IN its last edition this morn
Ing. says the impression prevails that
Hosdjev i elected Governor by from
four or five to eight thousand majority.
Full returns may give different result,
but the outlook is favorable. The Leg
isIature is In doubt, but is claimed BY
both ades. The second amendment vote
is large. but it probably will be defeated
by the Cincinnati vote. Counting the
returns is in confusion in this county,
owing to very late work. The morning
newspapers have barely suggestion OF
the detailed vote. Everybody is worn
out and progress is slow.
The Outlook In Toledo.
TOLEDO, Oct. l0,-0wing to great
amount of scratching the returns from
the city and county, up to A. NJ, are
meagre, but show that the Democrats
will probably elect their entire county
ticket by fair majority. The Demo.
Gratis here claim the State by 20, 900 ma.
jority on the Governor and nearly the
same figures on the balance of the State
ticket. The Republicans yery eener.

The vote for the second amendment
though heavy, fell short of the anticipa,
tons OF It's friends. Full returns will
