Al the End OF tho Uourt
All tho counties of New York havh bCen
officially canyassed aud reported except
New York and Greene. 1t is stated that
the latter connty will not be reported until
Monday. In New York the oCuut is pro
crossing slowly, but not more 80 thsu IS
usus, there. 1t is difficult for the rca ier
To make much ont of the returns ir m
there 80 far reported. The difficulty is
that in the press tabulation of election lis
tricts some OF them were incorrectly as.
signed to assembly districts For lis
reason the official footiuSs OF assem- "
districts do not agree with the press 1, Il.
ings, but 1t is ascertained that the footii Is
of the election districts agree, SO that trc
Cleveland plurality will not vary mo.
than few votes from the figures alreaG
| given. These are 43, 226. With this plr

to make footing of the table showing

have not yet returned the complete vote
No BLAINE GAINS IN NEW YORK.
The Associated Press and correspon-
| dents of the Republican newspapers art
sending ont that the count in New Yorl
city is showing gains for Blaine. tn,
count is showing nothing of the sort. ThI
explanation Of the apparent gains is ~
| follows Thore are in the city twenty tou
| Assembly districts, in which there ar
eight hundred odd election districts o
| polling places. The returns on election
night were collected by the City Pres
Association and by the police by election
| districts, not by Assembly districts To-
City Press returns and the police return
tally. When all the election districts q
the city were in the total gave Cleye Ian,
43, 226 plurality. The City Press folk
tbsu tried to group these eight huudry.
odd returus By Assembly district |
doing So they got mixed and gave Gpm
districts too many and some too few vptes
| Their grouping, however, was prirtt 4 i
the newspapers, and the total b
Assembly district votes agreed wit
the total vote of the election dis riots
When the oanvassiug began, however
| the Assembly districts official c8nvasse
totals did not agree with the totals q
printed week ago and they will cOntinu
10 disagree 10 the end of the count. Thu
far, however, the election district otficia
total agrees ia every case with the total
sent cut on election night, and as the re
turns have all been gone over again an
have been verified over aud over again,
is known thst tho result in New York cit
| will not be changed by the official canvas:
The tallies by Assembly districts dc nc
agree with those printed on Thursda
morning in the newspapers and th
difference at the moment is in Blaine
favor, but the election district totals d
agree and will continue to agree TO th
end. The trouble all rests on the error
made in trying TO group the eight hundrs
city election districts into the twenty-tou
Assembly districts.
