Democrats Garry the Legislature.

Democrats Carry the Legislature.
INDIANAPOLIS, November 5.-Six
hundred and twenty-four voting
places show net republican gain of
1863, which is about 40 per cent of the
vote of the state. The city and
county republican majority is 600.
Peelle, republican, for congress, is de-
feated by Bynum, democrat by 600
majority. Ward, democrat, in the
eighth district defeats Doxey by 400.
The legislature is largely democratic.
Hendricks and Pulitzer.
INDIANAPOLIS, November 5.-Gov.
Hendricks has been in receipt of teie-
grams from various sections all day,
but nJthing from the national demo-
cratic committee since morning. He
answered telegram from Jos. Pulit-
zer, of the New Y York world, who ask
ed his opinion of the result and the
reason that, in his belief led to it, and
attached an inquiry as to how New
York had gone. In response Pulitzer
wired that New York had given
Cleveland and Hendricks a small
majority, which might be increased;
anyhow the state was sure for the
democratic electors.
The following telegram from the
young mems independent committee
of New York gave Gov. Hendricks
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 favor of administrative re-
FORM"
This evening an Associated Press
reporter called upon the governor and
was accorded brief interview. II
firmly believe Indiana has gone DEM
ocratic by decisive majority. and am
inclined to extend the estimate of last
night from 5000 to 5000. l can't
understand the system of reports that
are furnished by Mr.. Wallack, of the
Western Union to the associated
press. l fear he is misleading the
public. l talked with General Man
son about it. and ne stated he had the
same fault to find when he was direct
ing the affairs of the state committee
four years age. AS to New York, of
course can't be certain, If the as
sociated press figures are reiiable,th
settle New Yoak state against
OtSf6ldlQs LILO Q1fiolOA III buO 0CIu-
ocratic vote there between Cleveland
and Butler is due to the employment
of the latter to work in the interest of
Blaine. There is no doubt Butler was
working for the republican mana
gers"
Atthe democratic committee rooms,
while the claim of carrying the state
by over 10000 is still kept up, the fur
ther claim is made that the republic
cans are doctoring the returns to de-
ceive the people. Chairman Hender-
son says the. democrats have elected
ten congressman, the republicans one
BROWN with two districts-the 9Th
and 9th in doubt. Chairman New of
the republican committee, says Brown,
johnson, Steele and Owen are elected
to congress, and the 1st district is in
doubt. The state is in doubt and
claimed by both parties.
Probably for Cleveland
ST. LOUIS, November 5.--John G..
Prather, member of the democratic
national committee received the fol-
lowing dispatch last night from a
prominent member of the national
committee:
INDIANAPOLIS, November Sit
will take no official count to deter
mine the vote of Indiana. The large
gain in democratic counties and re-
publican losses in their counties show
900 democ' attic gain over the vote of
two wears ago. Eighteen COUNTIES are
yet to come in Cleveland has Indiana
by many thousands.
