THE NEW YORK AND BROOKLYN COUNTS.
IN Official canvao of twenty walds in
Kings county shows q gain of thirty nine
votes for Cleveland and two for Blaine. The
board OF canyassers of New York county eX-
amined the returns of the first three assem-
by districts. A few differences from the
were discovered, but nothing that Will
materially affect Cleveland's plurality as
published. 1t is estimatedt that Oswald Often
dorfer may fall hundreds OF votes behind his
comrades on the electoral ticket. The room
was filled with politicians and lawyers, rep
resenting the Republican Inc Democratic
parties. Committees Oh protested and cor
recteu returns We're appointed. In the can
yass Of the First district it was found that the
Democratic electoral ticket was not properly
filled i'll, and that there were clerical discrep-
ancles or omissions. On motion the whole
district was referred to the committee on
corrected returns. The board of trade and
transportation adopted q resolution con-
demnlng expressions of inflammatory char
acter i'll connection with the close contest of
OF fraud, and asserting that every citizen will
submit to the determination of the consti-
tuted authorities.

SLIGHT BASIS OF REPUBLICAN HOPES.
The Mail and Express this afternoon saws:
The official canvass Of the vote of this state ia
IN progress to-day. But few changes were made
by the canvassers Yesterday. 1t is now gener-
ally conceded that il the vote of this counties
above Harlem bridge cannot be changed to af-
feet Clcveland's plurality an accidental error
may entirely wipe out his plurality, and on this
alone are based the hopes of the Republicans.
At midnight forty of the sixty counties had been
heard from officially. They gave a net gain of
tllirty-three for Cleveland, leaving his plurality
at l,22o, according to the claims of the Demo-
Gratis. This practically ends any probability of
any serious increase to Blaine's maiorities.
In the rural counties. although it is fair to bear
IN mind that where gains are expected the can
made up. The total number of votes upon
which, IN some form or other, George Bliss ex-
poets to take exception to the informal coant
already had is about 1000. About one-third
OF these are defective or blank ballots, and the
rest are Butler and St. John and other votes
which were miscounted, excluded or otherwise
aided to swell the Cleveland vote.
NEW YORK, Special Telegram, Nov. 49,
From official returns received from about
fifty counties, and taking previous figures
for the remaining ten counties, the Sun this
morning puts Cleveland's plurality at 1 200.
The Times says it will be 1,246. The World
sticks to 1917. The Tribune says:
II the present majorities in New York md
Brcoklvn should be sustained, it would leave
Cleveland a plurality of l,1l2 in the state. ii
seems certain that the official count will reduce
this, but how much, cannot vet be known, None
