n large plurality, but the later reports helpeu
the Blaine pluralities The morning returns
swell the pluralitis; 1927 districts give
Blaine. 2S9.6sO; Cleveland, 244,915; But
Ter, ITS, and ST. John, 15,OS9-a net Dem
ocratic gain of 1O,299. These, with New
York and Brooklyn, make up more than
thr~ee-fourths of the state. The carefully
prepared and trustworthy tables oil
maiorities made up in the Times have just
been revised, and they show CleVe-
land maiorit1es of 71,713, against
Blaine maiorities of 61,716, leaving a
plurality of 1907 for Cleveland, or
barely two-thirds of the st John vote, which
is double that cast for Butler. The ribune'
own tables give Cleveland a plurality of over
10000.
wH1TELAw Reds REPORT
New York, Special Telegram, Nov. o.
At $50 o'clock this morning the returns
show that New York Is extremely close, with
a probable Republican plurality of from
5000 to 5000. The Democrats are still
claiming the state by a majority of 10000
or more. No returns, however, warrant the
claim. WHITELAw REID.
DEMOCRATIC CLAIMS.
NEW YORK, Special Telegram, Nov ., 3:3O
a. m.-The World claims this state by at
least 10000 plurality, ana claims that
Cleveland has 222 electoral votes. 1t places
New Jersey, Indiana, Connecticut and Wis
consin as Democratic. The World says Mich
igan, Nevada and California are doubtful,
with the chances in favor of the Democrats.
49, Uopr Nov - COrranfad rofnrnq
show that CleveIand's majority in the city is
53.OS3. Cleveland's majority in New York,
Kings, Queens and Richmond counties
reaches almost, if not quite, $4,000. In
1883 Garfield came to New York county
with 63, 900. 1t is unlikely, so far as heard
from in the interior of the state, that Blaine's
vote in the interior can Offset the majority
above given.
HOPE NOT RELNQUISHED.
The Albany Evening Journal claims thatif
the figures from New York city are correct,
Blaine will carry the state. Mr.. Somerville,
of the Western Union, still claims the state
by from 1000 to $4,000. The state is at
best exceedingly close, but the Republican
leaders here still adhere to the belief that
Mr.. Blaine has carried the state and country.
CHICAGO, Special Telegram, Nov. g.
Whitelaw Reid telegraphs as follows: Il
now believe we nave carried New York by a
majority not far from 5000. Returns from
remote precincts are gradually bringing us
up. 1 believe that we also lave Connecticut
and New Jersey"
NEW YORK, Nov. 4-Senator Jonas, of the
Democratic national committee, says there
is no doubt that New York State has given
Cleveland from $4,000 to $4,000 ma
iority, New Jersey 5000 and Connec-
lieut. $500. Meager returns from
Indiana show material Democratic gains
over 1880, and Senator Jonas is confident
of a Democratic majority in that state and
| California. He also scopes for Nevada
The Republican national committee
privately conceded New York state to Cleve-
land by 6 10000 majority. This was based
on returns from cities. Duringt the next hour,
returns from less populous districts made a
considerable decrease in that estimate.
THE PRESS AT SEA.
NEW YORK, Special Telegram, Nov. 8, $50
a m.-The press of this city seems pretty
well at sea on the result. The Morning Jour
nal saws in it's headlines: @Looks like Blaine"
but its returns are meager. The Tribune
says in its first edition:
Blaine apparently has 157 electoral vote
certain and Cleveland I35. Eleven states, cast
ing 100 electoral votes, are in doubt, or have
uOb DCCn a HULL ANSH LOAR - NWC " 49,
states in doubt. The early returns indicate a
large total vote and large Democratic gains in
some parts of the state. In New York
city the Democratic plurality is over A 1000,
and in Kings over $4,000. The Republicans
gain in Albany, Chemung aud 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"
The Times says:
The returns indicate that Grover Cleveland
has been elected president Of the United States.
II it shall appear that New Jersey has given him
the majority that scattering returns now seem
to show, and which the Democratic committees
positively cls'"l. The State of New York will
give Cleveland from u, 900 to 10000 plurality
Cleveland's plurality in Connecticut will be
about 1000. There is no indication that he has
lost any of the 1913 votes in the South hitherto
assigned to him. There is no conclusive news
from Indiana. If we add to those 1913 votes
from the south, the SO votes Of New York, the .
votes of New Jersey and the g votes of Con-
/ ~necticut, the total is 204 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 onl.

gain of ], 700"
The majority for Cleveland in this city, which
D is 49, 900 in round numbers, shows that the in
dependent vote was not as large as was expected
a or that it was offset by Democratic treachefy Of

Kings shows that county is well entitled t
