CINCINNATI, Oct. 14.-It was remarked by
Judge Kelly, of Pennsylvania, after can
wasting the state, that he had never seen
such an intense feeling manifested in poll
tics since 1910. All reports received so far
indicate that the intensity of feeling con-
tinues. An enormous vote is being polled,
each party striving not only to get in
all the votes out to get in early. 1t is I'M
derstood it is regarded as the battle ground,
and on that issue to-day will depend the
conduct of the next weeks campaign. The
polls are being closely watched by deputy
sheriffs and police, representing the demo-
Gratis and deputy United States marshals and
citizens committee the republicans. A large
number of repeaters have already been by
the deputy marshals, and they are being
guarded in the government buildings. A
number of these were brought in patrol
wagons by the police, which added to the ex
element. There has been considerable
shooting in the sivth, eigth. eighteenth and
nineteenth wards. In the latter a
deputy marshal shot a deputy sheriff
in the head, causing a severe but not fatal
wound. In the Thirteenth ward Demo
cratic) theirs great excitement because of
the large number of Republican votes polled.
The citizens of Glendale report this morn
ing large number of Irish have voted the
Republican ticket. While the ticket to be
voted is state, local and congressional, the
issue is national, for reasons above stated,
hence the vote will be large. 1t will probably
reach 100000 in the aggregate. The state
candidates are secretary of state, Judge of
supreme court and board of public works
The Democratic candidate for secretary of state
is the present incumbent, Mr. Newman: the
Republican, Gen. J. S. Robinson, who at
present represents the Marion district in
congress. Only scattering returns need be
expected tonight, but these will indicate the
drift
COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 14.-The weather is
bright and clear to-day, with cool breeze,
and everything favorable for a full vote,
which is being polled. No disturbances of
consequence are reported in this city, be-
yond the arrest of few strangers trying to
vote, and others for disorderly conduct.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 14.-The report that Cox
Anderson was killed in the Sixth ward is not
true. He had an alteration, but was not
seriously hurt. Large crowds were gathered
at many of the polling places, and
the air is full of rumors of
expected outbreaks. The polling of votes
continues rapidly, and in many places more
than one-half of the total vote was cast be-
fore noon. In the United States court room
Commissioners Harper and ProbasCo have
already committed twenty-seven men
charged with illegal voting. Shortly before
noon Al Russell, in the Eighteenth ward, who
had been hourishing pistol about the vicin-
ity of the pools, was shot by colored deputy
marshal and died instantly. At noon the
poll was proceeding quietly in nearly all the
wards. There is a large crowd about the
United Stotes government building, at
tracted by curiosity and by the almost con-
slant arrival of men arrested for illegal yot-
ing.
CLEVELAND, O., Oct. 14.-Business is al
most entirely suspended Business men are
at the polls taking an active parti the work.
The vote is probably the heaviest ever cast in
! the city. There have been three or four ar
rests of repeaters. Otherwise it is very quiet,
though the interest is great. Reports from
| towns In the Western Reserve indicate Re-
publican gains.

ing quietly and very large vote is being
Interest centers on the McKinley-Paige con-
gressional fight The probabilities are favor
able to McKinley's election.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 14.-At 2:30 the city
continued to be fairly quiet. Nearly 100
men having been brought before the United
States commissioners for Illegal voting, and
have been sent to jail or released on bond.
Habeas corpus proceedings are used in some
| instances TO get them out OF jail Arrests
are also made by police and deputy sheriffs,
and the same course pursued TO release their
prisoners. There has been no general dis
turbance since the rush at the Eighth ward
polls, and confidence is growing that the day
will pass peaceably. Still there are fears OF
violence about the time of closing the polls
at p. m. Indications point rather to peace
1t is evident the vote will be the largest ever
cast. Similar reports continue to come from
outside points.

the rural districts.
