THE LATEST.

Further returns from the towns of this State do not materially change the result as announced by the JOURNAL AND COURIER yesterday morning. The legislature will be required to elect the State officers. It is largely Republican, and we shall therefore have Republican State officers, and Hon. O.. Fl. Platt will be reelected to the Senate.
 Concerning the general result, at the time of writing this e a. m.) there is still doubt. The dispatches are very conflicting and contain comfort and discomfort for men of both parties and for those who have been foolish enough to bet on the result of the election. We hope that our latest dispatches will clear up the mystery. If they do not we recommend our readers to possess their souls in patience and refrain from tttalking politics."

THE LATEST EXPERIMENTATION"
YALE BEATS WESLEYAN.

An Exciting Game of fFOotbaH-SpIen-
 did Work by Terry-InjurIes to Ber-
 trOm and Peters.
 The Yale football team met the Wesleyan eleven at the athletic grounds yesterday at 3 p. m. There was strong wind from the west. Wesleyan won the toss and chose the west goal with the wind trong in their fla vor. In three minutes from the kick off Terry of Yale made fine run and touch down. He kicked the goal. Soon Terry made another run the whole length of the field and won another touchdown from which Richards kicked the second goal. For some time after this there was slow work with the ball near to Wesleyan's goal, and after some fumbiing Wesleyan was obliged to make a safety touchdown. Yale soon after made a next trial for goal also failed and time was called before more could be scored, leaving the score at the end of first inning g to OSF
 In the second inning s touchdown was made at the beginning, but Bertron was hurt and carried off the field In less than two minutes Peters was hurt in the head and was obliged to stop playing. Flanders made neat touchdown, but the trial for goal failed. Bayen made good run and touchdown from which Ferry kicked the goal. Terry also made good drop kick, which was followed up to advantage and Wesleyan had to make another safety touchdown In the last part of the game Terry made another fine run and made touchdown and goal, making the score 46 to 0. The Wesleyan team played strong game for them. Especially Sake did good work. On Yale's side Terry seemed to be the man doing the work, as af- most all the score was made by him. The show of spirit and grit usually given by the Yale team was wholly lacking, and the score was not as high as was expected.

 How They Celebrated In Hartford.
 Yesterdays Courant says of the rejoicing of the Cleveland men in Hartford on election night: Before midnight the crowd in the streets became tired of looking at election re- turns and election pictures on the screens hung up before the stereopticons. Besides this they were getting enthusiastic over the result, and by common consent they began to form parading squads. They invaded places still open where red fire could be ob- tained, and apparently this brought out all the tin horns in town. For hours the pro- cession went on, always close to or on the City Hall square, coming round frequently to get look at the last returns and yelling for Blaine in style that will leave some of their throats much used up to-day. About 1 o'clock bonfire was started, and previously a quantity of Htna torches had been secured. There was cheering enough to furnish out 8 frst-class meeting, and for two or three hours it was bedlam broken loose. But, then, all en- joyed it and it was a great night for the boys.
