The Ohio Municipal Elections.
fBy telegraph to the Dispstch.l

| CINCINNATI, April S.-The returns for
| Cincinnati OF yesterdays election were not
all reported at noon to-day, but enough IS
| known to show the total vote 10 be about
1 10000. Police-Clerk Richards's (Republi-
can) majority will be from 400 to 700, and
| it is possible that the Republicans will
elect one member OF the Board OF Educa-
| ton. With these exceptions the entire
| Democratic ticket Is elected by majorities
OF from 400 to 500. The returns show
. very large Republican gains in the German
wards. Compared with a year ago the
change is enormous. There was general
lack OF interest among the leaders Vi par
ties, and the vote shows more spontaneous
action than f. usual in such elections. The
only active workers were the candidates
for the Police Court. The municipal re-
form ticket, though nominllly the work OF
| both parties, il is generally understood, has
drawn most OF its votes from the RepuO-
licans. II it had NOS been before the peO-
pie the result would have been less favor
able to the Democrats.
Throughout the State the reports show
Republican gains in most OF the larger
cities. Springfield shows considerable
Democratic gain. Reports are generally
silent upon the subject Of gain or loss, rs
local issues Influenced the vote in most
places.
LATER FROM THE CINCINNATI ELECTION.
CINCINNATI, April 8.-Uuoficial returns
from all the precincts but one, and an esti-
mate from that one, give the following plu-
ralities: Peck (Dem.), Superior Court,
400; Heron (Dem.), Board OF Public
Works, 426; Richards (Rep }, Clerk OF Po-
| lice Court, 1929; Herman Dem.), Direc-
tor Of Infrmary. III; Cronin Dem.),
Wharf Master, 4S9.
Four Democratic members OF the Board
Of Education were elected, one by a ma
jority OF only twelve votes. In the Fourth
aldermanic district only three Democrats
were elected aud two Republicans. For
the sixth place there was tie between
two Republicans.
The Common Council will stand: Alder
men-Democrats, %; Republicans, 3.
acknowledgements, 20; Republicans,
30. On Joint ballot-Democrats At; Re-
publicans, 33.
The popularity of the vote in the Sixth
Ward gives rise to suggestions OF con-
test. While the total vote everywhere else is
| 25 per cent. less than that Of last fall, this
ward polls 40 more votes than it did then.
| Governor HOadly had majority there OF
36S, and now the Democratic majority is
! 951.
| There is also complaint Of Irregularities
in the Eighth and Twelfth Wards.
| The total vote for the municipal reform
| ticket is about 500.

WRECK OF THE STEINMANM.

GBy telegraph to the Dispatch.

IBy Telegraph 20 TIE DispalCnJ
HALIFAX, n. s., April S.-Three diving
schooners, with well-equipped crews, were
at the wreck OF the Daniel Steinmann yes
terday. and commenced taking out the
cargo. When the divers first descended
they found the bull upright and firm in
the position where she sank. Two OF the
matches were found open, the coverings
being torn off by the sea. The bridge
seemed firm and the LIGHTHOUSES in place,
but showed signs OF going to pieces.
The bulwarks were still standing.
No bodies have been seen IN the vessel
80 far, as no diver has entered the cabin or
Storage. A large quantity Of barbed wire
was taken out Of the hold by divers, sent
to the surface, and placed in the schooners.
A large number OF fishermen in boats from
the nelghboring harbors were near the
wreck all day graphing for bodies, but
none were obtained. 1t is the opinion Of
many acquainted with the coast that most
OF the bodies outside OF the vessel would
be carried out to sea by the undertow.
The watch on the first body picked up Sat-
urday had stopped at 1870. The surviving
passengers will leave here to-day for New
York. Those Of the crew here will remain
some time. The opinions OF seafaring-
men acquainted with the approaches to the
harbor are unfavorable to the commander
Of the Steinmann regarding his working OF
the ship on the night OF the disaster.

TBy Telegraph 10 The DIspaIcn'I
RALEIGH, N. g., April 8.-The estimates
Of the losses by the forest fires vary widely.
The damage to the farm-bouses and fencing
is heavy. Much lumber was burned in
Moore county, and IN the lower counties
turpentine farms were damaged to con-
siderable extent, but the destruction was
not OF character to affect trade, except
locally in the region visited by the fires.
The supply Of turpentine will be dimin.
ished, but not enough to affect the market.
