INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 5.-Hendricks has
been in receipt of kilograms from various
sources all day, but nothing from the Ma
tional Democratic Committee since morn
ing. He answered a telegram from 10
seph Pulitzer, of the New York World,
who asked his opinion as to the result,
and the reasons that, in his belief, led to
it, and attached an inquiry as to how New
York had gone. In response, Mr.. Pulit-
ger wired that New York had given Cleve-
land and Hendricks 4 small plurality,
which might be increased. Anyhow the
State was sure for the Democratic Flee
tors. The following telegram from the
Young Mems Independent Committee,
of New York, gave Hendricks consider
able personal qualification, but it was not
satisfying as to the actual facts: BE
lieving that the war issues are settled, the
Independent Republicans of New York
have given You the State, and voted in ia
vor OF administrative reform"
This evening an Associated Press re-
porter called upon the Governor and was
accorded a brief interview.
81 firmly believe" he sand, that Indi-
ana has gone Democratic by a decisive
majority, and am inclined to extend my
estimate of last night from 5000 to 5000.
AS to New York State, of course l cannot
be 50 certain. If the Associated Press
figures are reliable they settle New York
State against Cleveland. The division in
the Democratic vote here between Ceve-
land and Butler was due to the employ
ment Of the latter to work in the interests
of Blaine. There is no doubt that Butler
was working for the Republican mana
gers"
At the Democratic Committee rooms,
while the claim of carrying the State by
over 10000 is still kept up, the further
claim is made that the Republicans are
doctoring the returns to deceive the peo-
pie. Chairman Henderson says the Dem
ocrats have elected ten Congressman, and
the Republicans one Brown. with two
Districts, the Eighth and Ninth, in doubt,
Chairman New, of the Republican Com
mittee, says Brown, Johnston, Stede anc
Owen are elected to Congress, The FRS
District is in doubt. The State is ndoubt
and claimed by both parties.
INDIANAPOLIS, November 5.-There il
no change in the situation as outlined
earlier in the evening. AT the Demo
cratic headquarters Chairman Henderson
and Secretary of State Myers claim a plu
nlity in excess of 5000 for Cleveland il
Indiana. They do not now insist upoI
more than ten Congressme admitting tn
election of Brown, Steele and Owen
The Legislature is unq~uestionably Demo
cratic, the loss of six members proving
settler ofthat matter. The exact figure
are not obainable. Chairman New nov
claims that the State has given a plural
ity to the Blaine electors but thinks tn
State ticket is in doubt. To an Associa
ted Press reporter Governor Hendrick
believed he had no further statemen
TO make concerning the situation.

ALBANY, November 5.-The Arg,s
will say tomorrow; cleveland is elected
and he will be inaugurated. The State is
not at all in doubt but elects Cleveland
and Hendricks, who will take the seats
to which the people have appointed
them" Communications TO the Argu,
to-day hom the different counties in New
York State demonstrate the election of
the Democratic Electors by a conclusive
and safe majority over Blaine's Electors.
Having been made Democratic by the
people, New York will remain so, and be
declared, and counted Democratic. and
whatever is necessary to this act Of truth
and justice will be thoroughly and fear
lessly done.

O'Neil, Democrat, and Glover, Demo-
crat. Returns from the State are still

How much time do you think it would
take to send a cable dispatch to Scotland,
and receive a reply?' was asked a Times
reporter yesterday, by a Western Union
man. Having in mind an experiment in
the interior of Kansas, when it took a tel
egram ten hours to reach, by a round
about circuit, a place only 100 miles dis
tant, a reply was ventured: About two
days"
well, that's where you are fooled.
Day before yesterday a dispatch was sent
from Independence, Missouri, to an inland
town in Scotland, and a reply was received
in just an hour and ten minutes"
"Mulhattan?n
No. It's no Mulhattan story. 1t is a
fact. 1t was only an ordinary business dis
patch, and took its turn in the ordinary
course of business"
DO such things often occur to cable
dispatches
"Well, ifthere is not a rush of business
and if the wires are in good working
order, and the man at the other end re-
plies promptly, it ought not to take more
thanthree hours to get a reply from an
English or a Scottish town. Two hours
and a half is not time, but
n hour and ten minutes is undoubtedly
very remarkable time"
How many transfers are necessary p
This dispatch was sent from indie
pendence to Kansas City, from here to
St. Louis, thence to New York, thence to
the cable office, and thence to England.
| suppose there were about five transfers
on the other side. 1t could not have been
a long dispatch, but the time made is
still remarkable.

RICHMOND, November Official and
semi-ofieial returns from seventy-nine

Cleveland ll,7s4 majority. These returns

elected eight out of ten Congressman.

The Burning of "DunbartOn.
Natchez Democrat. ]

Natchez Democrat
Tho sad news came TO ia yesterday morn
ing that Dunbarton, the residence Of Dol.
]. Il. IL Claiborne, ton milea from this city
on the Liberty road, had been burned 10
the ground on Sunday night, catching fire
from a defective nue In tho servants room.
and with the old mansion persisted all the
valuable contents, including books and
papers, which Col Claiborne has been col
Letting for half century. Col. Claiborne,
who has been an invalid for many weeks,
waa carried out of his burning house, and
was compelled 90 witness the loss OF all
that no had cherished no highly and had la
bored so long TO bring together.
Dunbarton was one of those old fashion
cd, rambling buildings, which had been
added TO from time TO time, and every nook
and corner was filed with treasures OF the
olden time and records of the long ago.
| The vast mass of historical and other inter
osting documents which the indefatigsblc
industry Of Col. Claiborne had amassed,
the largo quantity of relics OF the past,
reaching back to the earliest settlement of
| tho country. the pictures OF u long line OF
ancestors and friends, all that was priced
nv the venerable inmates OF the old man
sion has been swept away in II night
Dunbarton was settled by Mr.. Dunbar
the father of Mrs. Claiborne in 1904
aud the log cabin in which he at first liveC
was replaced by the more elegant mansion
about 1872 or 1874. Mrs. Claiborne wa
born in the old house, and her attachmen
for the home of her childhood has Away
been very strong. For this most estimabl
1 lady IA well as for her venerable husband
there is much of sympathy in this commu
nifty. The news was received in this cit
with universal regret and it was looke'
upon as a public calamity. The invalua
. Bile collection OF manuscripts and histori
cal material is recognized as loss that cal
never be replaced, and with their destruc
ton will be lost many of the most valuabl
/, records OF the earliest settlements Of Mis-
sissippi.
Col. and Mrs. Claiborne have had one o
tho houses in the yard fitted up for thei
present residence, feeling very much AYERS
to leaving the old home where so many o
the pleasant days of their lives have bee
spent Hundreds OF those who have en-
ioyed the elegant hospitality of its kin,
and generous owners will hear with unat
fected sorrow of the destruction OF Dun
