city. At each of the polling places the number
of men awaiting, apparently to vote is unusual
ly large. In the Ninth ward, which is strongly
Republican, and in which Governor Cleveland

made to carry it for him. There is evidently a
friendly regard for him. and it is believed his
friends are strong enough to carry the ward.
There was large number of men waiting at the
polling place where Governor Cleveland votes to
greet the Governor and witness his voting. At
a few minutes before O'Clock he appeared. He
was supplied with Democratic ticket, and, tax

not heard from either Blaine or Elkins. He was
unwilling to prophesy as to the result. He con

New YORK, Nov 8, 23O A M-The best in
formation and estimates in the hands of the
national committee at o'clock indicate that the
election will be very close. The final result
and Indiana New York is very close If the
present rates of gains in the rural districts is
sustained, the Republicans will carry the
State by more than a good majority.
Cleveland's majority south of Harlem river is
81, 1000. The Republicans have gained eight con
gressmen in the State.
Connecticut is much closer than New York,
and it now looks as though the Democrats had
carried it by avery small majority. Later re-
turns may change the result in Connecticut.
The wires are working badly and information
here do not give mp hopes of carrying the State.
The reports from New Jersey are uniformly
encouraging for the Republicans. The counties
all show heavy Republican gains Senator Ho-
bart hopes to carry the State by 1,5OO, and it
certainly seems that he will do SO. The Repub-
licans are gaining steadily on Indiana and Vir-
