Seems TO Have Gone Wrong.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 13.-The election in
Ohio to-day was for state and county Off
GERS, for thirty-SeYen senators and forty
representatives of the general assembly,
and upon four amendments to the constitu-
ton, one to change state elections from De-
tober to November. and one to change the
term of office of township trustee. Gov.
Hoadly is the Democratic candidate for re-
election, j. B. Foraker the Republican can
didate and Rev. \. Is. Leonard the Prohi-
bition candidate for governor. There are
2,017 voting precincts in the state, and COM
pariSon will be made with the vote for gov
ernOr in 1888. when Gov. Hoadly was
elected by plurality of II, 529 over j. B.
Foraker. The election in this city
began without any disorder. All the
judges are provided with printed lists of
what are considered fraudulent regiStries,
and the voting is watched with care. Rain
is reported all over the state last night and
to-day. The rain ceased here between II
and II clock, but the sky was entirely
clear The vote poIled at II O'clock showed
that it was fully up to the average. Good
order has been maintained. though drunken
men were found at some of the voting
places in spite of the state law requiring all
places where Intoxicating liquors are sold
to be closed on election day. Rain was re-
ported in the center and northern parts of
the states.
MAKING BIG CLAIMS.

registered vote was polled. There were
some arrests for fraudulent attempts to
vote and some minor disorderly conduct,
but in general it was peaceable election.

Press indicated gains for Foraker. When
twenty precincts had been heard from he
had a net gain of 359. The Prohibition
vote gives indications of considerable gains.
