WASHINGTON, Nov. I5.-The National
Republican, prints the following in its New
York money article: "Elkins telegraph
ed his friends last night that he conceded
New York State to Cleveland by about
1900 plurality
REPUBLICANS TO MAKE NO FIGHT.
A special dispatch from New York to
the E0eRiRg Star says: 'It is a source of
much satisfaction to all concerned that
the electoral count will certainly be CON-
pleted by Monday and probably by to-
night, although no formal announce
ment has been made to that effect. 1t is
understood that the purpose to advance
any charges of fraud has been abandoned
by Mr.. Bliss and has assO-
ciate counsel. This is coupled,
however, with the qualification
that contingencies may yet come in which
it will be deemed eXpedent to report evil
dences of fraud. The Democratic Com
mIttee this morning, after once more 90
ing over their figures, say that the final
result Will not vary 30 from their stand
ing estimate, and the absolute silence of
the Republican Committee when applied
to is accepted as proof that they, at least,
admit the correctness of the Democratic
figures. A New York State Senator,
personal friend of Gov. cleveland. who
came from Albany this morning, says that
Cleveland had directed his clerks TO de-
strOy, without showing to him, all letters
making application tor office"
CONTINUING THE COUNT.
NEW YORK, Nov. 1j.-The Board of
Supervisors met in the Aldermanic cham
Der at 10 O'Clock this morning, and re-
sumed the work Cf canVassing the vote Of
New York county. The Fifteenth As
semby district was completed without
any material change from the original
count.
In one Of the election districts Of the
Sixteenth Assembly district a slight error
was discovered, ana the vote OF the dis
trict was referred TO the Committee on
Corrected Returns. Otherwise there was
no material change in the count OF the
Sixteenth district, which was completed
AZ 1855 O'Clock.
The Seventeenth Assembly district was
completed at 1l:10 O'Clock. The count of
the First district of the Eighteenth As
sembly district was Objected to on the
ground that the total number OF votes as
read was shown to be 1913, whereas it was
CLAIMED that 226 votes were really cast in
the district, and that the Republican
electoral ticket received 81 votes instead
of 81. as recorded. The vote of the First
election district was therefore referred to
the Committee on Corrected Returns.
The Twenty first election district OF the
Eighteenth Assembly district was reached
without the discovery OF any other errors.
The canvass of the Eighteenth Assem-
bly, district was finished about IL :45
O'Clock. No other errors were found than
the one in the First election district. lhe

pleted at 1905 O'Clock without incident.
1t was resolved TO request the Committee
on Corrected Returns 10 give preference
to the electoral ticket. The canvass of the
returns for the Twentieth Assembly dis
trict was completed at 1920 without
objection being made.
Ia the Twenty-tirst Assembly district
no objections nor changes were made.
Five defective ballots and four blanks
were found. MessTs. Kelly, Leary and
Hunter, of the Democratic ticket, each

The total figures in this State, accord
ing to the official canvass, New York
county alone being excluded, are as fol-
lows: Blaine, At ,906; Cleveland, 423, ,94S;
Butler, 1869; St. John, 23,9lj. Blaine

The respective national and State head

rooms early and Secretary Fessenden and
Committeeman Elkins remained during
the evening and held a cOnv rsatiOn with
Walker Blaine. The Republicans cOncede
Cleyeland's election. Assistant Secretary
IOomis voiced the sentiment of the COM
mittee in saying, "lt is all over. We only
await the action of the State board OF can
Vassers on Wednesday next. But we have
made a good fight considering that we did
NOT have one-third OF the amount of funds
controlled by the National Committee OF
the Garfield campaign"
THE DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS.
The headquarters Of the Democratic
National Committee were dark and de-
serted. Senators German and Jonas and
MIR. Barnum had left the city, feeling that
their work was ended. Chairman W. +.
smith. of the Democratic State Commit
tee. had gone to his home in Plattsburg
and Secretary Burr left this evening.
There was little talk about the hotels
and public resorts about the election,
those few who knew that Cleveland,s
official plurality in this city was 43,Oo4
alone speaking on that particular. Pro-
fessiOnal betting men have not settled
their wagers, but await the action OF
Kelly and Bliss, the book makers, which
will not be given until after the
action of the State board of canvassers.
The World gives Cleveland 1,1O7 plu-
rality in New York State.
The Times gives Cleveland l,lO0 plu-
rality in New York State.
BLAINE GIVES UP.
