CHICAGO. November 6.-About 4:30
this afternoon Mrs. Gardner, wife of DR..
Schuyler Gardner, formerly of Jefferson
county, New York. shot her husband and
young child both through the head, kill
ing them instantly. Taking up the dead
child she carried it across the street to a
neighbor's house left it, and calling to
her neighbor to come over and see her
husband, whom she had killed, and re-
turned to her own house and shot
herself through the temple. She will die.
1t appears that her husband lost his prop
erty some time. ago which made him
morose and sullen. He accused his wife
of infdelity. This seems to have unbal-
anced her mind. AT the time of the
shooting he was bidding her good bye
preparatory to going to Rock Falls, Ills.
and it is supposed she thought he was go.
ing to desert her.

Republican Address.

NEW YORK, November 6.-The fol-
lowing address has lust been issued:
Headquarters of the National Republi-
can Committee, New York. The Republi-
can National Committee rejoices that the re-
turns now received warrant them in an
nouncing the triumphant election of
Blaine and Logan. The Republicans
have carried every Northern State, ex-
cept New jersey and Connecticut. Vir-
ginia seems also to have given n majority
for the Republican cause and ticket, and
there is a strong probability that West
Virginia has also, while other Southern
States are still in doubt. The Northern
States alone, however, give to Blaine and
Logan Dos electoral votes and insure their
election. In New York attempts to tam
per with the returns have already been
detected. The actual vote cast in New
York City, Kirgs county, and in
1852 other election precincts. give
at the utmost, only l4s plurality
to. Grover Cleveland, while l63 precincts
NO; yet heard from gave 2,l7l plurality to.
Garfield. There is, therefore, no ground
for doubt that the honest vote of the State
has been given to the Republican candi-
dates, and, though the defeated candidate
for the Presidency is at the head of the
election machinery in this State, the
Democratic party, which has VIGOROUSLY

Blaine's Feelings.

AUGUSTA, November 6.-Mr. Blaine
said, in reply to an inquiry about his
health; Il never felt better in my life.
l remained in my room most of the time
yesterday, because, after seven weeks of
continuous public speaking, ] was still
quite hoarse, and l felt that : was enti-
tied to one days rest" The fact is, he
is in excellent health and spirits, and as
this dispatch is being written he is getting
ready to 20 out for a walk. Senator John
F. Miller telegraphs Blaine this morning
that the whole Pacific slope is safe for the
Republicans, and that California gives
Blaine a majority of 10000. A dispatch
from Oregon reports that the Republican
majority in that State will be 1000.

The Reault in Illinois.

CHICAGO, November 6.-Thele was
much interest, and at one time there was
considerable excitement in the business
portion of the city tonight. Both parties
claimed New York and went about the
streets singing, blowing horns and cat
calling. About midnight a collision oc-
cured between Republicans standing in
the street looking at the bulle-
tins OF the l inter Ocean and Tribune.
Several persons were hit with fists and
sticks, but the call for the police was
responded to quickly and the riot quelled
before any were seriously hurt. The

est in the returns and the excitement at
tending their reception which marked the
Hayes-Tilden election.
The Erelil0 Necs publishes the fol
lowing conspicuously: I'VE believe it to
be our duty to caution friends of Blaine
that any attempt to subvert the will of
the people by tampering with the returns
will be p%erilous. The populace, in case Of
fraud in the returns, could not be re-
strained. As much as we deprecate vio-
lence, we fear turbulence and bloodshed

National Committee, was also present.
j. A Sullivan, of the Produce Exchange,

a speech. The general tenor of the adj
dresses was to the effect that Cleveland
had been elected and that the Republi-
cans would cheat their opponents out of
the victory if they could. Resolutions

NEW YORK, November 6.-All the
morning papers, the Tribune excepted,
concede the election of Cleveland by from

The Vote.

New York, November Go the ed
itor of the Chicago Daily Netcs The
total Prohibition vote will aggregate 200
600, four years ago it was less than IL 600
and has decided the Presidential contest
and New York Cleveland's majority is
about 1000. The official returns will not
materially change the figures. The Pro
hibition vote in New York is fully 25,O00.
The Prohibition vote in Allegheny, Mon
roe and Orleans counties alone would haye
carried the State for Blaine if cast for
him. The Prohibitionists have stood up
to be counted, and rebuked the insult
offered the temperance men at the
Chicago conventions, and this vote has
made Prohibition a National issue
which will not go out of National politics
until the beer shop and the drunkery have
gone from America. The Republican
party having been removed from the path
to the graveyard, prohibition will at once
organize to bury whisky Democrats four
years ahead. l am fully satisfied we have
nc choice between the candidates Of the
old parties, but were fighting to elect an is
sue, and We have won. Work to make
the issue win in 1888 has already begun.
