TIE ELECTION IN CINCINNATI.
The election in this city began without
anv disorder and up to 10 O'Clock this
morning no arrests mad been made. Two
causes contributed to this result-the di-
vision of the precincts so that not more
than three or four hundred votes are in
anY one, and the rain, which prevented
crowds from cOngregating. All the
iudges were provided with printed lists
Of what are considered fraudulent regis
tries and the voting was watched with
care, Rain was reported this morning
having fallen almost all over the State
last night, and as still continuing.
The rain ceased here between IL and -
O'clock, but the sky was not entirely
clear. The vote pOlled at II O'Clock
showed that it was fully up to the aver
age. Good order had been maintained up
to this hour, although drunken men were
70 be found about some Of the voting
places, in spite OF the State law requiring
ali places where intoxicating liquors were
sold to he closed on election day. Rain
was reported in the central and northern
parts OF the State at noon.
THE EARLY RETURNS.
The afternoon in Cincinnati was free
from rain. and so far as can now be told
nearly the full registered vote was polled.
There we're some arrests tor fraudulent
attempts to vote and some minor dis
orderly conduct, but IN general it was a
peaceful election. The first returns re-
celved by the Associated Press indicated
gains for Foraker. When twenty pre-
cncts had been heard from he had net
gain Of 359. The prohibition vote also
gave indication of considerable gains,
Niuety-six wards and precincts give
Foraker 14.572, Hoadly 10. $50, Leonard
LIZA. a net Republican gain of 1,414.
tu returns from one ward in Cincinnati,
lhe Ninth, show exactly the same Repub-
lesn majority as was given in 1858.
One hundred and ninety-eight precincts
show a net Republican gain OF 1904. This
IS nearly One-tenth Of the voting pre-
cncls in tie state.
Iaree hundred and thirty precincts in
lhe STATE show net Republican gain Of
3S2l.
