The Feeling in Washington.
WASHINGTON, November 5th.-The anxiety in
political circles here to-day is intense The Re
publicans cling to the hope of success tena-
ciously, and the Democrats are demonstrative
and confident. Conflicting reports were re
ceived every few minutes OF rumoFs that jobs
are being circulated. One dispatch received
from the Republican headquarters in New York
says the State viii not be decided without the
official count, and majority of over 10000
either way is not likely. McCulioch said that
this morning he thought Cleveland was elected
but now better news comes in, and there seems
to be hope for Blaine. '.All is i'll Doubt he

most unexpected after the superhuman efforts

Wild Scene in New York.
New YORK, November 5th.--Thc Sun says {:
The city poured out into the streets last night,
and went crazy The excitement, pent up
during the polling hours broke loose aiterdark,
and on every hand were yelling struggling,
bowling mass pressing around the bulletin
boards growing hOarSer and wilder, as the con
stantly changing returns worked upon their
feelings. The fiftlI-ayenue Hotel was jammed
as never before. All the tables and chairs were
removed, even iIom the rcading-room, and at
times circulation was absolutely out of the
question. At the Hoffman House it was even
worse. Uniformed policemen sureed through
the crowded room, AMI the yelling,
cheering and bowling were 50 horrible that
loud talk Of any kind had soon to he forbidden,
and the police were requested to club any one
who chccred. Many OF those in the crowd
seemed drunk With enthusiasm, and elbowed
their way around, waving rolls of grecnbac!;s
and making the most unheard-of propositions.
But the widest part of the wildcat night New
York has seen since the war was reached at II
o'clock. The returns a; first were all favorable
TO Cleveland. They turned then to Blaine, and
the largest crowd that ever gathered before the
Sun Office was more enthu siastic than ever be-
fore. At loss to find some way to express
their feelings the crowds went through per
formances unknown to former outdoor demon
strations. Three hundred men would gather in
knot, give three cheers for Blaine, clap, jump
up and down, screaming in each others face,
with their eyes straining from their heads, and
keep it up until some new result called forth
some new demonstrations Thousands of men
sang or yelled together, Glory, glory. hallclu-
jah, as we go marching on" and then clappcd
their hands. waved their handkcrchicf>, and
screamed again.
Hendricks Interviewed
INpIANAroLS. November 5th.-This evening
an Associated Press reporter called OF Governor
iIendIicks and was accorded Il brief interview.
Il firmly believe Indiana has gone Democratic

| As to New York state of course | cannot be
certain. If the Associated Press figures are re-
liable, they settle New York State against
Cleveland. The division in the Democratic
vote there between Cleveland and Bnter was
due to the employment OF the latter to wort; in
the interest Of Blaine. There is no doubt that
Butler was working for Republican success.
