The Situation.

NEW YORK, November 9.-The CAM
paign closed, leaving everything in doubt,
but New York State. Senator German
says this, while Manager Elkins persists
in the belief that Blaines election is as
sured. A tour among political managers
early last night yielded, little or no in
formation, for the reason that real
information or positive information
on any point is lacking
The managers are all at sea and
preface every statement with 81 think. /"
IL Is positive fact, however, that the
Republican managers have formally given
up this State. They have done little or
nothing here since the day succeeding
the Ohio election. The fight has never
been in this State, as was said in
these dispatches, eight weeks
since, but the Republicans have
done enough to make the DEM
ocrats think great struggle was going on
here. Good Democratic opinions to-day
gave Cleveland New York by 10000, and
the same opinions give Indiana to the Re-
publicans, and Ohio 10 the Democrats
The greatest anxiety exists in both parties
regarding New Jersey and Connecticut.
Ten days since both States were con-
sidered safe In the Democratic column.
At present there IL at least doubt about
them, because Of the sudden and unex-
pected move the Republicans hawa made
In piliag men and money into them,
Precisely the same doubt EXISTS regard

DAYTON, O., November 9.-Eugene
Wakemsn, of New York, well-known in
this city, arrived here on Saturday night
with man who registered at the Beckett
House as II. Spegel, New York. Wake
man met him on train several months
ago, and after the two had exchanged
cards they engaged in a friendly CONVERSE
ton, in the course of which Wakeman
spoke particularly of a great friend of his,
Il hotel-keeper In New York, and of his
relations with him. Spegel is conf
dence man, and he sought out
the hotel-keeper in New York,
and succeeded in getting him
to cash forged draft for 90, 434 by telling
him he was particular friend Of Wake
man. Wakeman was informed OF the
matter at once, and Saturday last caught
Spegel on a train coming to Dayton.
Spegel acknowledged his guilt, and paid
Wakeman $50, with promise of the
balance the next day. During the night,
however, Spegel made his escape from
the hotel, and has not been heard from
since. Wakeman started in pursuit, but
returned without finding him.
