CLEVELAND. O., Oct. 14.-The election to-day
passed off more quietly than was expected.
number of free fights occurred, and the police
quelled a small riot among the Republicans in
Ward 1s. No one was seriously injured. The
vote polled to-day all over northern Ohio was the
largest ever known. Two Republicans were
arrested in Ward Is for Illegal voting and were
bound over for trial. A number of fraudulent
tickets were cast during the day. Wah Lee Yoo,
q recently naturazed Chinaman voted to-day in
Ward H. casting Republican ballot. Returns
will come in slowly. The Democrats report
gains in several city wards.
REPUBLICANS CLAIM 1000.

the Republicans are claiming everything. Maj.

comedies the state TO be Republican by 10000
majority, Other Democratic leaders here con-
cede 5000 and 5000 to the Republicans. The
Republicans are figuring upon majority of 49,
600. There was great rejoicing here
about midnight when the news come that Hamil-
ton county had gone Republican and elected two
and paraded the streets, singing campaign songs
and yelling for Blaine and Logan.
They threaten to paint the town red
before morning. Cuyahoga county will give Re-
publican majority of not less than 1890. The
fight for congressman is still matter of doubt.
although few Republicans concede the election
of FOran, the Democratic candidate.
Every ward in the city has been
heard from, and Foran's majority is less than
200. His friends fear the country precincts yet
to hear from will defeat him. 1t is possible that
the Republicans have elected every congressman
in northern Ohio, with the possible exception OF
Frank Hurd, of the Toledo district.
RETURNS COMING IN SLOWLY.

COLUMBUS, o.. Oct. IA, Top. m. The Repub-
licans are claiming, with one-tenth Of the state
heard from, Is 900 to 20, 900 majority, and ma
jority of congressman. The Democrats give up
the state but still believe they will have ten OF
eleven OF the twenty-one congressman. The
percentage of gains needed by the Republicans is
per cent. Nearly all the returns in so far
are on the head of the ticket only, and it is con-
ceded that Robinson has run some behind his
ticket with the exception of johnson for supreme
judge. The cities heard from are seen to have
shown gains, especially where the manufacturers
are located. Democrats here are blaming each
other for ignoring the tariff. The wool growers
have caused Democratic losses and helped
the Republicans. All concede that the
tariff has done it. Allen w. Thurman at this
writing concedesthe stat by
over 900. The Western Reserve has not come
up to the expectations of the Republicans ex-
cept where the tariff was question. The Re-
publicans are claiming the result a special in
dorsement of Blaine. They claim that the tariff
now is the issue Of the national campaign. There
is no regularity TO the gains anC
losses. The Democrats have gains where they
were not expected and losses where they ex
pected gains in spots and with no regularity o
percentage at all. The indications point to the
Prohibitionists falling TO 5000 6,000, the
Greenbackers to 1000, and the total vote reach
ing over 100000 The Republicans have on
their bands and glee clubs to spend the night il
painting the town red.

CINCINNATI, Oct. -, IL 30 a. m.-The RETURN
at this hour have materially altered the ros!
hour in the evening. The Democratic gains ap
pear to have been reported first. In the returns
from ten precincts in this city there is shown
Republican gain OF about 500. The ''vest
pocket vote amongst the Germans, which th
Democrats were relying upon, turns out to have
! been Republican after all. In the face of threat
| ened prohibition the Germans returned to their
first love, the Republican party, aud unless tn,
! figures begin to change soon, satisfactory Re
publican majority can be relied upon in thi
county.
