The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1884-11-07
THE ELECTION.
A CLOSE VOTE, WITH BOTH PAR.
TIES CLAIMING SUCCESS.
NEW YORK.

1872, $40 and for Blaine 90,C65; Cleve-
lands plurality, 42,777. Butler re-
ceives 3,4l5 and st. John 1.267 votes.
Six hundred and forty-flve districts in
the state outside of New York City
and Brooklyn show a net Democratic
gain Of 6,6s2. This indicates Cleve-
lands election by a small majority.
Eight. hundred and ninety-twO dis
tricts outside New York and Brook
Ign, give Blaine 211 $40. Cleveland
l7S.O62. Butler 1924, st. John IL 1851, q
net Democratic gain of 1851.
The result is so close in this state
that at this moment it is not quite
certain who has carried New York,
but it is probable that the state is safe
for Cleveland. This county gives him
a majority Of about $4,000, Kings
county 5000, Richmond county, 1000,
making q total in these three counties
ties, from which returns are not yet in,
will about offset each other. Blaine
will, therefore, in all probability have
to bring a majority OF over 10000 to
Harlem River in order to win. The
present prospects are that Cleveland
will carry the state by about $500
plurality. Some slight gains in his
favor are coming in from the country
but not enough, as yet, to indicate that
the state is his.
4:3O a. m.-The latest dispatches are
still more favorable to Cleveland. The
news from st. Lawrence, the banner

IL democrats.
WISCONSIN,.
Milwaukee, Nov. g. Milwaukee

over Van Setback by 1000. Returns
from the interior are very slow, but in
dictate beyond doubt that the state has
gone Republican by a reduced ma
jority.
Madison, the home of Colonel Villas,
goes Democratic by about 800 ma
jority. The indications are that La
Follett (Rep.( is elected over Jones
(Dem.) in the Third District.
2 a.. m.-The indications here are
that the Republicans have carried the
state by n reduced majority. Secretary
Payne, of the Republican State Com
mittee, estimates Blaine's plurality at
$4,000, against 29,763 for Garfield in
1880.
Three hundred and twenty-nine
townships and precincts give q net
Democratic gain of $3.50.
NEW JERSEY.
Newark, N. j., Nov. 5-Essex, Beag-
en- and the other counties in Northern
New Jersey show Democratic gains.
Ocean, Atlantic and Monmouth show
Republican gains. Governor Albeit
estimates that Cleveland has carried
the state by 1900 plurality. The
Democrats claim the state by 1900.
The Republicans will not concede it.
CALIFORNIA.
San Francisco, Nov. 5-Indications
point to a small majority for Blaine,
but the state is in doubt and the bet
ting favOrs the Democracy. In the

ably defeats Morrow (Rep.) for Con-
(Dem.) is probably beaten by FELTON,
(Rep.)

California, including San Francisco,
give Blaine 22,250, Cleveland, 1854.
1t is not expected this increase will be
maintained, but it is conceded the re-
publicans carry the state by 5000.
PENNSYLVANIA.
Philadelphia, Nov. 5-The Republic
can plurality in Pennsylvania will
reach about $4,000. Returns from
about half the state show that Blaine
received just about the same vote as
Garfield in 1850. Both the Butler aud
st. John votes were very small.
OREGON.
Portland, Ore, Nov. 5-The returns
are very meager, but those now in
with careful estimates show that the
vote was lighter than in September,
but the Republican plurality larger.
The vote for Butler and st. John was
trifiing.
MAINE.
Augusta, Me-, Nov. 5-One hundred
and sixty-three towns give Blaine 49,
517; Cleveland, 32,S26; scattering, g.
800. The same ratio in towns to be
heard from indicates q total vote of
133,250. On that basis Blaine's plurality
will be 1880.
NEBRASKA.
Omaha, Nov. 5-The returns are
meagre but the indications are that
Blaine will have a majority of $4,000,
and Dawes, rep for Governor, about
1900. No reliable figures on Con-
greSsmen are Obtainable. Brown

First District, and Laird and Dorsey
(Rep1s, in the Second and Third.

Cleveland; democratic gain, 2l2. Ohio

majority, 305; democratic gain 30. A
republican gain of 1000 is reported
from Vanderburg county. Newton

gain of 35. If the present ratio of re-
publican gains continue the state will
not be more than 1000 either way. 1t
