Tho Republicans claim tho State, but tho
Democrats Dispute It.
The arst scattering news last night
over the wires claimed gaina for the
Republicans, putting them In high glee
and hence their morning papers have
out their big birds and say, Foraker will
have good majority. The following
from the Cleveland Leader, shows how
they put up their claim loftily.
| At 1915 q. IN. returns had been Teceiv
cd from 776 OF the 2,0l7 precincts In
Ohio These showed l48972 Tor Foraker,
1872, ,597 for HOadly and 9,9l3 for Leonard.
fhe net Republican gain 10 1904 Thla
| gain OF over 10 TO the precinct would
show u total gain Of 30,255 and give
Judge Foraker plurality OF 5000 In
the State.
The following Is what the Plain DIAL
or this morning has to say.
AT b o'clock this morning little more
than ono third OF the precincts In the
State had reported returns These show
net Republican gains sufficient TO wipe
out Hoadlys majority Of two years ago.
II the precincts yet TO report show the
same ratio OF gains the Republican ma
jorlty will be about 70 600, but u Ia not
likely that the ratio will be maintained,
The Democrats do not give up hopes Of
reducing this gain and OF carrying the
State by small majority, The Demo
cratic State committee refuse TO c0ncede
FOraker'a election and the Cincinnati
Enquirer claims that Hoadly ls elected
" will take more complete returns TO
determine the result.
The legislature Ia In doubt; claimed
| by both parties. Democrats have held
| their own In close counties aud have
made some unexpected gains. The re-
suit seems to hinge upon Hamilt N
county, which at the time Of going TO
press was claimed by both parties. Pri'
yate dispatches say that the Democrats
have carried Hamilton county by 1900
majority, electing the greater part OF
their Legislative ticket The Repunli'
cans deny the truth OF this and are
charging that the Democrats are at
tempting TO count them out.
The Democratic State Committee do
not concede the State nor Legislatures;
and both parties claim Hamilton coun'
ty.
