in excess OF the liabilities by considers

Little Hope for the Republicans.

NEW YORK, November Lime re-
ports Of the county canyassers through
out the State so far as heard from give
but little encouragement for hope to the
Republicans, and to-day the members OF
the Republican Committee are more de-
spondent and gloomy than on any day
since the election. They seem TO be
much disappointed by the developments
OF the count in the counties, and intimate
that they had been misled by reports
from those whom they believed to be re-
sponsible parties, to expect that some
grave fraud would be exposed.
CHAIRMAN JONES
OF the National Republican Committee,
who has been SO persistent In claiming
the State for Blaine, appeared TO have
lost great deal of the confidence char
acteristic OF him, In statement 10
your correspondent he said he did not
know what the outcome would be. lie
admitted that the counties heard from
did not carry out the full expectation
OF himself and the other members OF
the committee; still he did not en-
tirely despair. The counsel for the
committee, he said, had evidence In
their possession which went to show
that there had been gross frauds CON-
mitted, both in this and Kings County,
and if it could be proven that such was
the case, be believed that Blaine would
yet get the State
The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1884-11-15
THE GENERAL OPINION,

however, is that the result, as already
published, will prove to be the true state
Of the case, and that Cleyeland'S plurality
will not be materially reduced. With less
than twelve counties TO hear from, the
changes have been slight and hardly
worthy Of mention, The count OF the
votes in this county is closely watched by
the counsc! for both sides, and the slight
est error in the returns must be rectiiied
before proceeding. There are twenty
four Assembly Districts in this city, and
at the present rate OF three day il will
be eight days before the returns have been
officially canyassed.
