AUGUSTA, November --latest ad-
vices received here from New York are to
this effect: Republican committees, Ma
tional and State, after a careful examina-
ton of the whole ground, are satisfied
the State has gone for Blaine and Logan.
They say that the correct count will show
a small Republican plurality, and that
they have taken steps to establish the
fact MIR Blaine's residence has been
crowded all day. Many prominent Cit
tens from all parts of the State are ar
irving. Interest in the result in New
York is growing deeper every hour. This
afternoon Blaine talked freely about the
situation. He said to a distinguished citi-
zen of Maine: II feel entirely confident
that the honest vote of New York, with
out change or manipulation, will show a
plurality for the Republican electors of
not less than LOO votes, | do not speak
idly, but from the most accurate data,
carefully furnished me from the most com
petcnt sources" Blaine added that the
dispatch of Daniel Manning, published
Yesterday, contained the most AFRO
giant and offensive threat to control
election returns in the interest of the
Democratic ticket ever made in any
Northern State and equalled the worst
bulldozing proclamations ever issued in
the South. He thought its effect would
be to arouse the law abiding citizens of
New York, who cannot afford to have
their State reduced to the level of law
~lessness prevailing in South Carolina and
Mississippi. The gentleman asked Blaine
if he felt much disappointment over the
possible prospect of losing the Presidency
by such means. Mr.. Blaine answered:
Il do not feel 50 in any personal sense,
but profoundly 50 on account of vast
national interests depending upon the
result. feel great pride that no imputa-
ton Of fraudhas ever been seriously uttered
against members of the Republican party
in any State or district. | do not believe
the American people will accept a fraudu-
lent result. Republicans have carried
the Northern States by more thar 300, 600
majority and they do not propose to have
a leading State taken from them by fraud ~

An Irritable Clergyman.

CLEVELAND, November An ODER
lin special to the Leader reports that last
night, after receiving the report that
Blaine was elected, the college students
and citizens built a bonfire, discharged
guns, fired anvils, and had a jubilee, wind
ing up by ~serenading the prominent Pro-
hibitionists, including one Professor, with
tin pans, horns and other unmusical i'm
PIGMENTS. In their rounds they paid a
visit to the residence of Rev. Nh. Mills,
a Senior in the college, and an ordained
minister, who had been a conspicuous adj
vocate of the cause of the Prohibition
party. The moment the charivari began
in front of his house, he fired four shots
from a revolver into the crowd, one of
which slightly wounded a student named
Mitchell, piercing the edge Of his car,
and grazing the side of his head. Mills
was arrested, and put under 800 bonds
for trial tomorrow. The feeling against
him is reported to be strong.

The ELECTION CONCEDED.

ALBANY. November The Erenn,o
Journal Republican, comedies the cleo
ton of Cleveland. 1t says: There seems
t O be no longer a doubt that Governor
Cleveland has been elected President. Ev-
cry county has sent in its full vote. After
a careful veriication the results assure
Governor Cleveland Il plurality of about
1000 in this State. The vote will not
vary 200 on either side of these figures.
New York gives Cleveland enough votes
to elect him. The Journal has devoted
all its energies toward securing another re-
suit, and it now reluctantly says that the
election has been decided differently from
its desire, because it believes that n
prompt recognition of the will Of the ma
jority is essential to the maintenance and
preservation Of American institutions. So
long as the people of the United States
have decided to transfer the Federal Adj
ministration to the Democratic party, we
are glad that the decision has been made
in favor of a Democrat from New York

what the Committee Wants.

NEW YORK, November THE Re
publican National Committee deny that
Mr.. Blaine is coming to New York for n
conference with them" They say they
have no means of determining the result
in this State except by election district
returns and that they will only take
such steps as may be necessary to protect
the party's interest during the progress of
the count, and hat to this end counsel
will appear before the County Canyassing
Board next Tuesday. The Committee
say, we want nothing but fair play and
what the law allows in the determination
of the result by those authorized to piss
upon the returns, and this, as a matter of
course, they are bound to insist upon.''

the callers. The Governor bore his hoDors
well and modestly. The excitement in
this city has largely subsidized, the Re
publicans generally c~onceding Cleveland 5

Mansion this evening. On Monday night
next a monster celebration will be held in
which all campaign clubs of Albany and

ing the popular will should, to be effective,
be promptly rendered.

City Hall park by order of the Leader
County Democracy in honor of Governor
Cleveland's election to the Presidency.
The booming of the guns drew a large
crowd from the bulletin boards at the
newspaper Offices to the park. During the

The Herald and San in an extra have

bulletin board this morning the crowd
was quite enthusiastic over the announced
election of Cleveland and Hendricks and
this increased when it was declared hat
Jay Gould had conceded to Cleveland and
had sent a Geographic dispatch to the
Governor congratulating him upon his
election. The Republicans continue firm
however, and still maintain that Blaine
has carried the State.

New YORK, November 7.-Charles
Francis Adams, President of the Union
Pacific Railway company. sent the follow
ing communication to Sidney Dillon, com
pllmenting he1inancial condition of the
company, During the three months from
July to September, inclusive, we received
just 81 900. 900 a month net from Omaha.
l mean over and above Omaha draft dur
ing October we received Sl,45O. 600 and
paid $4,000 on Omaha drafts, leaving
us a net of 81, SOC, 900 for the month.
Between now and the list OF January | ex-
pect 10 receive 81 200, 900, S6O,O 600 of
which will be necessary to provide for cou-
pons and maturing obligations which
mus: be paid off, But | am confident we
will have in these two months 81 500, 900
net to apply to the floating debt.
l may over estimate in these figures, but
| do not think | do. The Pullman notes
given for our share in the contract are re-
duced nov to $l60, 900. The compan
YES us about $50, 900. Mercantile ac-
counts at Omaha are in better condition
than they have been for a long time.
There are no arrears in vouchers and the
auditor reports. Everything is well paid
up. The reduction in gross earnings the
past month was largely due to the fact of
the changed methods. last year we
credited ourselves with about $1,000
freight paid on the coal used
for our Owl locomotives. OF
course we never resolved this money and
it went into subsequent expenses. This
year the system of charges is the actual
and apparent Vross, which is decreased
insomueh. During September, therefore,
we practically received about sixty
thousand more in money than last year.
| propose to CONF ON to New York next
week aud take hold of the floating debt.
From this time forward the plan is to re-
duce it steadily and by every means in
our power until it is extinguished.

No. II West Twenty fourth Street. To the
People of the United States
There can no longer be any question
concerning the actual result of the Presi-
Dental election. Grover Cleveland and
Thomas a. Hendricks have a majority of
eighteen in the Electoral College. 1t is
not worth while for our adversaries to
claim the electoral vote of the State of
New York. 1t is absolutely certain that
the returns to the proper Offices Of the
election on the night of the 4th Of No
vember showed a decisive plurality in the
State forthe electors supporting Cleveland
and Hendricks. If any different or alter
ed returns are now being prepared, or are
promulgated, they are corrupt l~alsifica-
tions of the records of the State Of New
York. and the men aiding or
abetting the making Of such reports
are criminals. 1t is not expected that YOU
will tamely submit to the Vaccinations of
such men. Let them understand that you
will not. Recognize at noon o-morrow
throughout the United States the actual
election Of Cleveland and Hendricks BY
firing national %salntes, Meet tomorrow
