:. NEW YORK, Nov. &. Senator Jonas. OF the
Democratic national committee, says there
Is no doubt that New York State has given
Cleveland from 600 to SO, 600 ma
jor1ty, New JersSyh 600 and Connec-
ucut $500. MeagA returns from
Indiana hoM material Democratic gains
ssvsE 1854 and Senator Jonas is confident
Of A.Democratio majority In that state and
California. he also hopes for Nevada.
The Republican national committee
privately conceded New York state to Cleve-
land by 1000 majority. This was based
on returns from cities During the next hour,
returns from less populous districts made
considerable decrease In that estimate
THE PRESS AT SEA.
New YORK, Special Telegram, Nov. 5, $50
R.m.-The press Of this city seems pretty
well at sea on the result The Morning Jour
nal says in its-headlnes: 3Looks like Blaine"
but its returns are meager. The Tribune
says in its first edition:
Blaine apparently has 157, electoral vote
,ertain and Cleveland 1875. :EIeyen States cast.
ing 100 electoral votes, are In doubt, or have
not been heard from. New York Is one Of tie
states in doubt. Tho early returns indicate
large total vote and large Democratic gains in
some parts Of the state In New York
SAeJ VAAS DSAAAO~A0VA~
and in Kings over 5000. The Republicans
gain in Albany, Chemung and Monroe counties.
The delegation in congress seems to be evenly
divided, each party having seventeen members:
The assembly is Republican by about twenty
eight majority 80 =. e
The returns indicate that Grover Cleveland
has been elected president Of the United States.
II 1t shall appear that Now Jersey has given him
the majority that scattering returns now seem
to show, and which the Democratic committees
positively claim. The State Of New York will
give Cleveland from 1000 to 10000 plurality,
Cleveland's plurality in Connecticut will be
about 1000 There il no indication that he has
lost any Of the 153 votes in the South hitherto
assigned to him. There Is no conclusive news
from Indiana II We add to those 1853 votes
votes Of New Jersey and tho votes of Con-
necticut the total >1s 2O4 A majority
Of the entire number of electoral
votes is POI. The returns from New
Jersey are very incomplete, but every
indications points to the success Of the Demo-
cratic presidential ticket in that state The Re-
publicans claim Essex county by only
1900 matority,lwhich indicates Democratic
gain of I, 700 & :. :. - ..
The majority for Cleveland in this city, which
is $4,000 in round numbers, shows that the In
dependent vote was not as large aswas expected,
or that it was Offset by Democratic treachery or.
detection. The large majority Of $4,000 in
Kings shows that county Is we'll entitled to
the name given it Of the stronghold Of the In
dependents" The fears that have been enter
tanned Of q break in the solid South through the
corrupt use Of money by the Republicans, have
not been justified by tho result, since that Sec
ton, usual, will cast its entire electoral vote
for the Democratic candidate.
The Tribune, in it's second edition, says
editorially:
We believe that Blaine and Logan are elected.
The states regarded as safe for the Republican
ticket when our first edition went to press gave
1t 157 electoral votes. There seems still no.
reason to doubt in the case Of any
one of the states thus enumerated.
We can now safely add New York and Wiscon-
sin. and thus bring the electoral votes secured
for the Republican candidates up to 2O4, OF
three more than are necessary for elec-
ton. It is reasonably certain that IA more
will be added from the Pacific slope, while from
Indiana, New Jersey and the South, there is, and
at the hour Of writing, o'clock a. M, reason to
hope for more yet. All hail the Republicans!
