nearly all the wards. There is large crowd
about the United States government building,
attracted by curiosity and by the almost con-
slant arrival of men arrested for illegal voting
At 2:30 the city continues to be fairly quiet.
Nearly hundred men have been brought before
the United States commissioners for illegal vot-
ing and have been sent. to jail or released on

and the same course is pursued to release their
prisoners. There has been no general disturb

There was very general apprehension that trouble
would occur as the polls were about to close and
men were sent to the most dangerous precincts
to prevent violence. Fortunately, the day closed
quietly. The worst trouble ofthe day happened
in one of the precincts of the Eighth ward, where

At National Headauarters.

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-Great interest was man
ifested by the people gathered about the differ
ent bulletin boards throughout the city, waiting
returns of the election in Ohio. In the neigh
borhood of the Eifth-ayenue Hotel and of the
political headquarters the crowd was greatest.
A. stereoptieoni at the Junction of Fifth
avenue and Broadway attracted attention, and
as the different dispatches were posted cheers
and cheers greeted them. The hotel Hobbies and
corridors were well-nigh, impossible. The ma
tional Democratic headquarters were crowded,
and the announcement of favorable news from
Ohio was vigorously cheered The first dispatch
was from Columbus. and read: 'Re-
ports from the. Hooking valley give
large Democratic gains. and the news
from over the State continues favorable"
AT the Republican headquarters there was the
greatest enthusiasm. A largo screen had been
erected on which the returns were displayed to
the crowd assembled. The returns were flashed
upon the screen and the great crown on the ave-
nue. cheeredi themselves hoafse in their great
qualification. At the Hoffman House and St
James Hotel there were also great crowds of he
publicans, who reioced over the returns, while
the Democrats claimed they could not read in
them defeat In some towns of the State the
Republicans had congratulatory meetings.
At the headquarters of the national Demo
cratic committee, at midnight, nothing was con
coded, and West Virginia was claimed
by 5000, which is the estimate in
Wheeling. Democrats in private; concede
Ohio to the Republicans by about 10000
majority AT midnight Ohio was claimed by
the national Republican committee by fromH,
900 to 20 O00 and the magic lantern in front bore
the words Praise God from Whom all Bless
ings Flow" The Republicans here felt such. con-
fdence in the result in Ohio that Chickering
Hall had been secured for tonight, and a. mass
meeting was held.

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 14.--The election here

few disturbances, and those due to the
appointment of special police by the
Republican mayor and deputies by the Demo

polls, the number of citizens turning out
being unprecedented Bands and drum corps

which is packed in every part. fence has been
built on the stage to protect the club from the
pressure of the crowd, whoare cheering so loud

At the Democratic headquarters there is not
so much enthusiasm Their hall is much smaller
than the Republican rendezvous but it is
packed, while hundreds are coming and
going. There is very little cheering,
but the mass of their people have not given up
all hope. On the streets there are no collisions
or disturbances, and everything is passing off
good naturally.
The noise of the enthused Republicans on the
streets is becoming almost internal. The air is
filed with rockets of all shades and colors, and
nearly every combustible substance has. been.
brought into use. The Democrats have retired
from their headduarters and those who have
not retired to their beds are watching the Repub-
