GENERAL BARLOW.
NEW YORK November

NEW YORK November 10.
General Barlow, one of the LAWYERS
representing the friends of Cleveland il
securing an honest count in this State
said to-day that the situation was simpl
this: GA plurality of the immense vote
this State was confidently claimed TO
Cleveland. 1t was probable that in mos
cases the claim was based on Gel
tiled copies of election returns whic;
were filed with County Clerks. 1t woul'
De only natural to suppose that after the
geturns had been examined and added II
over and over again four or five time
there would be no difference in the i,
ults obtained by honest men familia
with figures.
The fact was, however, that the total
announced by newspapers friendly
cleveland showed variance of sever
hundred votes from each other, leavin
the claims of the Blaine managers out
question. This being the case it was r
impossible that the results of the offici
.invass would differ somewh.
rom some of the returns mo
,enerally accepted. But any chang
ere as likely to be in favor of Clevelan
Blaine. The former had margin
rom 1000 to 200, or more votes to dra
a. AS to the result of the examinatic
D the returns of the city on the Pre-
iential vote made by himself and 9th
awyers, Barlow said his associates d.
iot think it advisable to announce the
xact figures. He would say, howeve
hey made some changes in the vote c
9th sides, but the difference did not eau
ny material alteration in the vote CO
lonly announced, and that there W,

"Disturbin' the peace, yer honor"
"What did he do?'
"He was playin' on the Kazoo in the
third-story of clearinghouse at two

"He was, ehp Well, that's very

'.It's a new-fangled fife-is about the

amateur tackles one in the night time
the neighborhood is liable to think it
has fallen heir to wildcat with big

Young man, all the mercy this court
can show you is to present you with a
red line map showing you the shortest
routes out of the city. Much as l may
deplore the fact, you must know that |
can't undertake to hold the entire COM
munity by the coat-tails while you get

AT BOTH HEADQUARTERS.

NEW YORK, November IL.
The Republican Headquarters ar,
practically closed, but the committee ha
eased the building until the 18th prox-
no, and will there confer until that date
John Vrooman, of the Republican STATE
Committee, said yesterday that the Dem
ocrats claim only SCI in the State, 'and
the Democratic investigation of returns
IN this city had thus far cut down thai
number by errors in Mr.. Cleveland's IA
vor, leaving only 1876. At the Democrat
ic headquarters, however, the statement
was made:
awe are all right, and are only strug-
Cling now to save what is already ours. !"
The Democrats claim to have received
a letter from Indiana yesterday alleging
that John C. New and others had matured
a plan to raise the returns in certain
counties, and that in "Brown's district in
one county, the returns had been raised
some hundreds" 1t is also stated that
in one precinct in Troy, N. Y, twenty af-
fidavits have been secured tending to
prove that more Butler votes were cast
than were counted.

HON. JOS. E. M'DONALD.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, November IL
Hon. JOS E. Mcdonald was shown a
dispatch from A. P. German to Chairman
Henderson yesterday, and had the follow
ing to say in regard to the political sitpa-
ton:
think that proclamation of Mr.. Barnum,
calling upon Democrats everywhere to tire
guns, and in other respects treat the election
of Cleveland as settled fact, was all wrong
/ think, also, that there was no warrant for
an exchange of cOngratulatOry messages
between Cleveland and Hendricks, and that
it would have been better if Blaine had not
sent any message announcing the belief that
the Republicans had carried New York. My
OpiOnion is there ought not to be single
gun fired until the result is finally and otfi-
cially announced. The vote in New York Is
altogether too close for either party to G. aim
the State with absolute certainty. This is not
the time for inflammatory speeches,
but good citizens should be pre-
pared to await, quietly and calmly,
peaceable settlement of the question by
the proper authorities. My fear is that if d
single gun be fired by either party against
the other in any of those demonstrations, ii
might endanger the Federal Union, and
think everything should be done to allay
party spirit instead of inflaming the public
by speeches, such as some gentlemen Fave
thought proper to deliver in the last ew
days.

Cleveland and Matrimony.

ALBANY, N. r., November 10.
Governor Cleveland spent Sunda.
evening in almost absolute rest an,
quiet at the Executive Mansion, though {;
few intimate friends called in the aftel
noon. Politics was only incidental
referred to, if at all. The rumor of tn
Governors intention to take unto him.
self wife was commented upon, with
some degree of seriousness. Intimate per-
sonal friends of the Governor dis
claimed any knowledge on the subject
and smiled when questioned as to its
truthfulness. If the bachelor Governor
has any serious intention to commit mat
rimony he has not divulged it to any one
at the capital as far as can be learned.
Arrangements have been completed for a
monster demonstration tonight by the
local Democracy. 1t was intended to
sercnade President-elect, Cleveland,
but at his request this has been deferred
until the result of the official canvass is
de maknOwn.
