Showing the Democrats Will
Probably Win.

WASHINGTON, Sept. ga table of presi-
dental calculations, prepared by an "Inde-
pendent" just now is somewhat interesting
reading. From the Democratic standpoint
no one viii dispute that Cleveland and Hen
bricks will receive the 153 votes of the
south. The majority of the electoral college
is POI. Thus they are within torty-eight
votes of having the necessary number. New
York, thirty-six, and Indiana, fifteen, would
give tfty-one, or three more than necessary.
New York, thirty-six, and Ohio. twenty
three, would give fifty-nine, or eleven more
than needed. New York, thirty-six, Cali
fornia, eight, and Michigan, seven, would
California, eight, New York, thirty-six. and
New Jersey, nine, would give fifty-three, or
five more than needed. New York,
thirty-six, Michigan, seven, and New Jersey,
nine, would give ffty-two, or four more
than needed, New York Sc, New Jersey 9
and Wisconsin II would give Sc, or eight
more than needed. If the Democrats should
California 8, New Jersey 9, Michigan z and
Wisconsin IL would give so, or 2 more than
needed.
On the other hand, the Republican total OF
certain votes is $780, or II less than a major
ity. They must carry, therefore, II out of
the lis doubtful electoral votes. II
they get all of them but New
York SO and Indiana 10, total 81,
they will have 11S less 81, or 81
less than needed. If they carry all but New
York SO, California 8 and New Jersey 9, total
So, they viii have rs less SO, or IS, 6 less
than needed. If they carry all but New York
36 and Michigan, 10, total 40, they will have
11S less 40, or SO, or less than needed. If
they carry New York, Ohio, California and
Nevada and lose Indiana Is, Michigan 13,
New Jersey 9 and Wisconsin IL, total As,
they will have 11S less 40, or 20, less than
needed.
From these figures it is evident that the
Democratic chances of success are very en-
couraging. They start for the doubtful states
with certain electoral vote of % more than
their opponents. They have only to
gain 4S votes to win while the Republicans
must have II. The figures are all in favor
of the Democrats. This calculation is based
on the theory that the certain Republican
states are Connecticut 6, Colorado 3, Illinois
%, Iowa -, Kansas 9, Maine 6, Massachu-
sets IA, Minnesota z, Nebraska 5, New
Hampshire 4, Oregon 8, Pennsylvania 80,
Rhode Island 4, Vermont 4. OF these, Con-
necticut, Colorado, Illinois, Kansas and
Oregon are claimed to be doubtful by san
guine Democrats, and Massachusetts, but for
Buffers candidacy, would probably be Demo
cratic, but all are down as Republican.
The states generally conceded to be doubt
full are California s, Indiana Is, Michigan ID,
Nevada 3, New Jersey 9, New York sc, Ohio

Prohibition in Ohio.
Ispecia. Telegram to the Globe.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-There is good deal
of speculation in respect to the amount Of the
prohibition vote in Ohio at the coming October
election, as upon It may and probably will de.
pend the result of the next state election. In
1881 the Prohibition candidate for governor re.
ceived ,591 votes. In 1882 the Prohibition
candidate Tor secretary of state received i. 2OO
votes. and in 1888 the Prohibition candidate for
governor received s,S6s votes. These figures
would seem to show that the Prohibition vote is
falling off in Ohio, but it is noteworthy that q
constitutional amendment prohibiting both the
manufacture of and the traffic in intoxicating
liquors TO be used beverage received last far
32s, 1se votes out Of total vote poIed of 721.-
$40, thus indicating very great strength and
body TO this movement. II the prohibition can.
didate for secretary Of state should get q. OOC
votes next month it would seem to be impossible
for Ohio to go Republican in October, as nearly
all of tina; vote would be drawn from the Repub
lieans. The estimates, however, OF this prohibi
ton vote vary widely.

SHE WANTED TO ELoPE.

BosToN, Sept. ga twelve year old girl
of birmingham on Friday packed valise
with diamonds and negotiable bonds
amounting to 100000, belonging to her
mother, wealthy lady, and started for Bos-
ton to meet young man. She was ar
rested and the valuabes recovered. The
amount stolen was divided as follows: S15,-
600 in bank bills, three 81, 900 United States
States bonds, 81 900 worth of diamonds and
S35, 600 worth of railroad stock. The girls
name is Sadie Robinson. and she is the
daughter of C. E. Robinson. Ssdie's mind
has been filed with nonsensical ideas about
runaway marriages. When charged with
stealing the valuables she at first indignantly
denied it, but subsequently confessed. She
said that on Friday morning she took the
valise with her when she went to school in
Boston, and had given it to a woman. She
told a blood curdling story of
having her life threatened unless
she complied with demand for
money. She said she met the woman in the
Albany station, and gave her the valise con-
tanning the valuables. The valise and valu-
ables were recovered in drug store, where
Sadie had left them, promising to call for
them to-day. She confessed she loved the
young man, whose name she refused to give,
and had taken the money with the intention
of clipping.
