PHInDELPHIA, Oct. ll.-CE1clusive, i
The Daily News has the following special
IN regard to the probable result in West
Virginia, from a Democratic standpoint:
WHEELING, Oct. 1.-The last general
election in West Virginia was in 1850. At
the State election in October, the Democratic
candidate for Governor received 6099l
votes and the Republican and Greenback
candidates received an aggregate vote of
j7,sS2 Democratic majority over COM
5insd opposition. 3,lO9
At the November election, Hancock re-
ceived 1881, being 49I less than the CON-
oined opposition vote on Governor in
October
But the opposition vote at the November
election fell down 10 55 322 Leaving Gen.

CoLUNsUs, o., October 1.-The Repub-
Ecan leaders are making final reckoning
here tonight. Many Of the local leaders
are here and many prominent men from
different parts OF the State. 1t is an i'm
portant gathering, for they are making
their reports and going over the situation.
The figures as presented show Republican
majority of about 10000. This calculation
leaves out Cleveland and Cincinnati, where
the Republican managers expect to hold
their own.
The showing has given the Republicans
more spirit than they have had at any time
since this 6ght began. They now feel con-
hdent of carrying the state. The poll OF
both parties indicates that there viii be a
large vote. and that the Prohibition element
viii remain an uncertain quantity 10 the
last. The conference of the managers last
ed several hours, and every feature Of the
situation was carefully discussed. Where
weak points were discovered arrangements
have been made to strengthen them, and
Mr.. Blaine has beeu wired the result and
be feels that his followers are in good con-
iition for the final spurt. From now till
Monday the fight will be red hot, and it will

closes is favorable. Both the Presidential
candidate and the head Of the State ticket
are KEEP; busy writing letters in explanation
and extenuation of crooked transactions.
This is something phenomenal
