This gives Blaine the following States:

This leaves Mr.. Blaine nineteen votes
short and allows him California, which the
Democratic Committee are certain will be
carried BY Cleveland By at least 5000 plu-
raEty. Wisconsin, which the Republicans
themselves admit is doubtful State, is in
the Blaine column. So are Michigan and
Ohio. where the Blaine canvass is on the
defensive. Then the Democrats are conf

This afternoon at o'clock he went
there again and obtained the same
amount. He returned at quarter to this
evening and again begged her 10 come and
live with him again. An emphatic refusal
was the response, He instantly drew re-
volver, which he had bought with the last
money he had wrung from her, and, point,

saw the movement and dropped quickly to
the floor, thus escaping death
