New York, November IA COM
parison of the returns from the eight dis
tricts thus far canvassed with the bulletins
sent out on election night by the City
Press Association, has resulted in showing
a net Republican gain of s5l votes. In
regard to this the Post says this afternoon:
'At first sight such a statement seems
important, but in reality the changes thus
far made will have no effect upon Cleve-
lands plurality as already announced.
The returns made up for newspapers on
election night contained many errors, but
strange to say, subsequent careful exami-
nations Of the official returns make scarcely
any change in the plurality for Cleveland
as given unofioialy. The explanation Of
this is found in the fact that errors made
on one side were balanced with extraordi-
nary venues by errors on the other. A
gentleman who is very familiar with the
actual figures of the vote in all Assembly

The Plenary Council.

BALTIMORE, November 1.-The work
of the Plenary Council to-day consisted of
reports of several committees. It is ex-
pected some of the subjects will be voted
upon Sunday next at the public session at
the cathedral. All proceedings in the
public sessions are in the Latin language,
while discussions in secret sessions are in
English. There was a conference this
afternoon in the cathedral of archbishops
and bishops at which the work of the
week was reviewed, but nothing of the
particular subjects nor conclusions reached
were given to the public. Tonight at the
cathedral Archbishop Seghers, of Oregon,
preached on Indian Missions" A
meeting of the Catholic National Colcni-
cation Association is called for Tuesday
next.

sDEATH AND DISASTER.
A Train Thrown From the
Track by Wreckers.
Ten Persons Killed and Many
Others Injured.

journs to St. Louis.
A Terrible

HEMPsTEAD, Tex, November a.
About 1880 O'Clock this morning the north
bound train on the Houston & Texas Cen
trail Railway was wrecked at Clear Creek
station, about two miles south Of this
place, and as far as known ten persons
were killed outright and fifteen wounded
more or less dangerously. An investiga-
ton by the railway authorities reveals that
the diabolical work was done by discharged
employees and thieves in the vicinity, who
sought to wreck a freight train for the
spoils it contained. Breaking into a sec
ton house the wreckers obtained the nee
essary tools and by pulling spikes and IN
fastening fish plates, arranged a rail to
yield to the pressure without, however,
entirely removing it. 1t so happened that
the passenger train, having the right of
way and being behind hand, was first to
reach the scene of the disaster. Striking
the loosened rail the engine and tender
got over safety, while two baggage cars.

The Count IN New York.

NEW York, November 14.-All coun
ties Of this State have sent in their official
reports excepting New York, Erie and
Monroe. Iftheir is no change in the
pluralities of these three counties from
what was reported by their County Clerks
just before the canvass of their returns be-
gan, Cleveland's plurality in the State
will be l,26S. The fhy-seven counties
which have reported show gains for
Cleveland of twenty-seyen. losses for
Cleveland of forty; gains for Blaine Of
thirteen and losses for Blaine of fourteen.
The canvass in New York county for six
districts already reported is rs follows;
Cleveland's gains, u; Cleveland's losses,
100. Blaine,s gains, 70; Blaine's losses,
6I. Net gain for Blaine, Ice. This does
not include the difference already noted in
the incompleted canvass of the First and
Seventh Assembly Districts, nor are the
changes in New York county included in
the statement of the vote which puts
Cleveland's plurality at l.26s.
The Fourth precinct of the First Elec-
ton District of this city, which was sent
back to the Inspectors yesterday for cor
rection in its form, was counted election
night as having given "A for Blaine, l9s
for Cleveland, and for Butler. The
Sixth, Nineteenth and Twenty-ffth pre-
cincts of the Seventh Assembly District,
which were similarly returned for correc
ton, gave, according to the first figures
reported, Blaine 40s, Cleveland S75, But
Ter G. If these figures are not changed
the First District will show a gain Of {
for Blaine over the figures of November
and a loss for Cleveland of 40.
The Seventh District will show a gain
for Blaine of 2I5 and a gain for CLEVELAND
of "a. 1t is claimed by the Democrat
that the first count in these two district
was incorrect and that the final canva
win show lutte or no gain for either side

NEW York. November 1.-THE man
aging editor of a morning paper here says:
The City Press Bureau figures on the
electoral districts in the city sent to the
Western Associated Press ON the night of
election are correct and are found to be
correct by the ~canvassers. But the bureau
in grouping the figures into Assembly
Districts got them mixed up and the re-
turns as canvasscd by the Assembly Dis
tricts are of course entirely different from
the bureaus. The details are the ssame,
but the Assembly Districts all
differ more or less and thus far
show an apparent gain for
Blaine that in reality will be restored
to Cleveland later on by the figures from
other districts. The Bureaus figures on
the election districts are all wrong, but
the totals on both agree and the trouble
was the Bureau got the wrong figures
into the Assembly District tables. We
(the managing EDITOR and a dozen others
are convinced of this, because we have
been over thefgures over and over again"

No such C%ontributiona.

NEW York. November 14.-Senater
A. p. German, Chairman of the Demo
cratic National Executive Committee,
states that William H. Vanderbilt has
not made any contribution to the National
Democratic Campaign fund. MY reason
for wishing to deny the statement that
Vanderbilt contributed $3.50, 900, or any
other sum. - says Mr.. German, lis, that
the story is put out with the malicious in
tent of creating a false impression that
Cleveland received aid from a class of
contributors and set Of influences whose
aid. when given at all. was wholly un-
stintedly devoted to the service Of Blaine.
While the campaign of Cleveland and
Hendricks was dependent upon popular
support, given for the most part in small
sums, some wealthy Democrats did their
fair share, as did also some Independent
Republicans of large means, but there was
no aid from great institutions likely to
seek from the National Government new
favors in the future, or a continuance
of the valuable privileges already
enjoyed by them. Any part in the cam
paign taken by such bodies was entirely
on the side of Blaine and Logan

New YORK, November l4-Tammany
Hall General Committee in the Wigwam
tonight celebrated the election of Cleye-
land andy Hendricks. Speeches were
made by Samuel S. Randall, John Kelly
and Congressman Cox. A great crowd
was present. Randall paid a tribute to
Tammany for the faithful effort to bring
success to the Democratic ticket and
added: "We must not expect altogether
partisanship to come from the next ad-
ministration. Our party must redeem all
its promises to the conservative people of
the United States. They must abolish
every unnecessary office; they must bring
the Government down to economy and
they must at once reduce the extraordi-
narily great revenues of the country. The
great amount of public lands that have
been given away through the prshigate
legislation OF the Republican party must
be taken back to the ownership of the
people, to be held for actual settlers under
the homestead laws. Ofice-holders must
be taught to perform their duties under
the restriction of laws" Kelly defended
himself and Tammany Hall from the
charges of disloyalty to Cleveland.

Printers Stricken with Cholerl

Printers Stricken With Cholera.
PARIS, November l4-Five cases of
cholera occurred yesterday among the EN-
ployes Of the newspaper MoniteaT Uni
rerseL One of these printers died almost
Immediately. The Commissary of Police
took the patient from his dirty lodging
house and had no sooner placed him in
an ambulance than the poor fellow died.
The landlord refused to allow the body to
be returned to his lodgings and the Com
missary took it to one Of the hospitals
and then to the morgue. Both i%nstitu-
tons refused to receive the body and the
Commissary was obliged to return it to
the lodgings in spite of the landlords OBJ
jections. 1t is expected that the Orleans
Princes will make a large donation to the
fund for the relief Of the cholera suf
ferers.
The continued cold weather is exercis-
ing a favorable effect on the rate of cholera
mortality, which does not exceed Que in
$4,000. The ravages of the epidemic are
trivial as compared with those of typhoid
fever. An epidemic shows little if any
effect upon the pleasure seeking procliyi-
ties Of the people. Theaten and other
places of amusement are filed every night.
Il is known thar the deadly disease made
large ravages among the soldiers of the
garrison. and the military officials publish
no returns and refuse all information.
The West End is still healthy but it is
comparatively deserted. Most of the
| residents of that quarter have fled.
