Wild Scenes Of Conf usiOn i'm New York
City.
4:30 p. m.-The day has been such wild scene OF
confusion and contradictions OF success, and Of
surprises, that 1t has been quite i'm
possible to secure anything accurate enough
to indicate the result in this state The commit
teemen have locked themselves In private rooms
and instructed the police to prevent
the bowling crowd from breaking in their
doors, and have sent out On the bulletins
a mass OF contradictory messages that
have kept the city and probably the coun-

Kelly's Political Destruction.
Mixed up in all this was the feeling among the
city democrats over the humiliation OF Tammany
John Kelly in this city, Mr. Kelly could not realize
his defeat till this p. NJ, and was 10th
to comment on it. It Is the first time in many
years that he has been completely astray. The
result shows, the Tammany men claim, that they
were loyal to Cleveland to man,
while the majority obtained for Grace,
for mayor. indicates on the other hand trade by
the county democracy for republican votes. 1t is
a subject OF universal talk one Of the surprises

Biaine's Plurality Can Hardly Fail
Short Of 5000 to 1000.
The returns in this state nearing their end at
this hour, and begin to show, removing mass Of
doubt, that Blaine has secured a plurality in the
state. He comes down to the Harlem river
and overtopples the Cleveland vote, which
he finds there by from 5000 to 1000
plurality. Some place it much higher;
but giving the democrats an increased per-
centage even over their gains In the rest OF
the state, Blaines plurality in the republican
districts not fully in can hardly fan short Of
