DEMO dRA1fc CLAIMS.
NE" YORK, srAcial Telegram, Nov. 5, $50
a m.-Ihe World claims this state by at
least lo,VyO plurality, ana claims that
Gieyeianfa has 222 electoral votes. 1t places
New ersey, Indiana. Connecticut and Wis
cons IN as Democratic. The World says Mich
ig.An, Nevada and California are doubtful,
with the chances in favor Of the Democrats.
New YORK, Nov. 4-Corrected returns
show that Cleveland's majority in the city is
53,Os3. Cleveland's majority in New York,
Kings, Queens and Richmond counties
reaches almost, if not quite, "a, 600. In
1888 Garfield came to New York county
with Sc, 200. 1t is unlikely, SO far as heard
from in the interior of the state, that Blajne's
vote in the interior can offset the majority
above given.
HOPE NOT ~RELINoUIsHED.
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 10000 to 10 1000. 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 us follows: II
now believe we nave carried New York by q
majority not far from 5000. Returns from
remote precincts are gradually bringing us
up. ! believe that we also have Connecticut
and New Jersey"
New YORK, Nov. 4.-senator Jonas, Of the
Democratic national committee, says there
1 q M 1Nr,hS that No,, VII. oA-A-- ~
Cleveland from $4,000 to so, 900 ma
acut $500. Meager returns from
Indiana show material Democratic gains
over 1880, and Senator Jonas is confident
of q Democratic majority in that state and
California He also hopes for Nevada.
The Republican national committee
privately conceded New York state to Cleve-
land by 10000 majority. This was based
on returns from cities During the next hour,
returns from less populous districts made q
considerable decrease in that estimate.
THE PRESS AT SEA.
NEw YORK, Special Telegram, Nov. s, $50
y m.-The press of this city seems pretty
well at sea on The result The Morning Jour
nal says in its headlines: Looks like Blaine"
but its returns are meager. The Tribune
says in its first edition:
blaine apparently has 1877 electoral vote
,ertain and Cleveland 1875. Eleven states, cast
ing 1O9 electoral votes, are in doubt, or have
not been heard from. New York is one of tie
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 40, 600,
and In Kings over $4,000. 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"
The Times says:
The returns indicate that Grover Cleveland
has been elected president Of the United States.
II 1t shall appear that New 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 $4,000 to 5000 plurality.
Cleveland's plurality In Connecticut will be
about 1000. There is no indication that he has
lost any of the 1873 votes in the South hitherto
assigned to him. There is no conclusive news
from Indiana II we add to those 153 votes
from the south, the 36 votes of New York, the 8
votes of New Jersey and the 6 votes OF Con-
%necttcut, the total is 204. A majority
of the entire number Of electoral
votes is 2ol. 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-
pubiicans claim Essex county by only
1,S00 majority, which indicates a Democratic
gain of 1. ZOO"
The majority for Cleveland in this city, which
IL 42,000 in round numbers. shows that the in
dependent vote was not as large as was expected,
or that it was offset by Democratic treachery or
detection. The large majority of Is, 0 in
Kings shows that county is well entitled to
the name given 1t Of .the stronghold of the In
dnnqndnpto - The far 80 that hnr. la.z a-...
tanned Of a break in the solid South through the
corrupt use Of money by the Republicans, have
not been justified by the result, since that sec
ton, as usual, will cast its entire electoral vote
for the Democratic candidate.
The Tribune, in its 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
it 1877 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. or
three more than are necessary for cleo
ton. 1t Is reasonably certain that Ia more
will be added from the Pacific slope. while from
Indiana, New Jersey and the South. there is, aud
at the hour Of writing, 3 o'clock n. M, reason to
hope for more yet. All hail the Republicans!

MINNIE oTA.
The result of the election in Minnesota
yesterday is a source of qualification to every
Republican. and the indications are tina Ii e
majority for the Blaine and Logan electors
will be much larger than was anticipated
by even the most sanguine. Returns have
been secured from nearly two hundred of
1,4OO precincts, or about one-third of the
| ctatn Thaea chp,v n tnta1 yrnta nf OK -t.
for the Republican electors, and 1920 for
Cleveland, a majority of 1O,516, being a net
Republican gain over the vote of 1883
of 1880. These returns have been
received principally from the Republican
precincts, but at the same ratio of increase
the majority in the state may safely be
placed at from $4,000 to 40, OGO for the ma
tional ticket.
THE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS.
In the congressional districts the result is
no less satisfactory, every Republican mem
Der being elected by increased majorities, in
most cases exceeding even their own hopes
in the emphasis of their victories. In
the First district from the thirty-one pre-.
cincts heard from Mr., White has a maiorit,
of 740. This is but about ~one-quartero OF the
number of polling places in the district, and
with the comparative ratio OF majority, and
the increase, Mr.. Whites majority might
be placed at 5000; but the returns from the
Democratic strongholds. in Winona and the
larger towns, will reduce the figures to the
vicinity of 1000. In the Second district,
Mr.. Wakeield's majority bids fair to reach
1000, with the ratio of gains, that gentle
mar having double the number of votes of
his competitor in the precincts reported,
In the Thlrd district Mai, Strait is ahead
of tho national ticket, and in the twenty
four towns reported has u majority Of
