The Ohio Election.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 15.--The Democratic
and Republican Committees, mp to noon
to-day, had neither changed the base OF
their claims in regard to the Legislature,
with the exception that the Republican
Committee comedies the election Of WEIGH
(Dem.) in Athens District, and thinks
Grenier (Rep.) in Perry District, If de-
feated at all, will be by only a few votes.
The Republican State Executive Com
mittce estimate the plurality Of Foraker
at 30. 900, in case the present ratio of gains
should continue in the returns from
Tuesdays election. The Democratic
Committee expresses the belief that the
plurality will not exceed $4,000, il it
reaches that figure. Hoadly is inclined
to believe Foraker's plurality will not be
more thar 10000 or 2 1000 when official
returns are secured. Both committees
still claim o majority Cd joint ballot in
the Legislature. The Democratic Com
mittee claim they have carried the legis-
lative ticket in Hamilton county, and
have reliable information that they will
lave a majority on joint ballot, with
f~fty-six members in the House
sure, and 81 in the Senate. The Republic
can Committees latest estimate is they
will have five majority on a joint ballot
outside Of Hamilton county, and in case
they should carry that, with half the other
doubtful counties and districts. the House
would stand II Republicans and SO Dem
ocrats, the Senate "a Republicans and Is
Democrats.
CINCINNATI, Dot. 15.-There can be no
absolute certainty about the result OF
Tuesdays election in Hamilton county
until the official count is made. The vote
in two precincts of the Nineteenth Ward,
whose counting was not finished last
night, has now been counted, and tho re-
suit on the Governorship, with one county
precinct missing, which in 1884 gave II
Republican majority, stands thus: Gov
ernor Hoadley. 1867; Foraker, 1862;
Leonard, 1920. Hosdly's plurality, 305.
The returns are far from complete on the
Legislative ticket. =
A Spirited Boat Race.
ALBANY, Oct. 15.-At / O'Clock this
afternoon the wind was favorable, and
Manager Hickey announced that the boat
race between Hanlon, Lee, Courtney and
Conley would positively be rowed to-day.
The stiff breeze from the West, which had
been blowing since noon, at 2 o'clock
| began shifting towards the South. A
large crowd is in attendance. and q brisk
| south wind is blowing. The boats started
at 1857 P. M, Courtney and Conley using
their cedar shell. At the word start"
HanIon took water and gradually increased
the lead with SO strokes. At the end Of
the first mile Hanlon was nearly q length
ahead. The race was won by Hanlon and
Lee by three lengths. The time was IS
minutes and 10 seconds.
Young Outlaws.
PRIMROSE, Pa, Oct. 15.-Last evening o
number of scholars returning from school
at Oakdale, near here were met by three
boys, two white and one colored, aged
about IS years, who attacked the girls
with revolvers. All the girls escaped but
| Annie X. McKemp. IA years old, who was
seized by the young outlaws and terribly
| assaulted, and then left lying on the
ground unconscious, where she was found
| some hours later by her friends. A posse
organized, and after q long search the
| assailants were run down and arrested at
Primrose. The condition of Miss Nc
Kemp is serious. and ii is feared she will
not recover. Indignation run high, and

formery.
A Thrust nj Wells, Fargo IL Co.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 15.-The Postmaster
General has decided that the Department
is under no obligation to deliver mail
thrown into Its box by Wells. Fargo & Co.
after they have cancelled their stamps,
and Postmasters have been requested to
| refuse such matter. 1t appears it has been
Che practice Of the express company to
transport letters as far as their lines OK
tend and then place them In the United
| States mail for delivery, where the point
Of destination Is beyond the limits Of their
own service.
A Probable Annexation to India.
New York, Oct. ia special from
London says that the trouble between
Burmah and the Government OF India
will probably lead to the annexation of
the former to India. The matter was
seriously discussed at the Indian Office
to-day. 1t is generally believed that q
sufficient force will be sent to Mandalay
to depose King Thebau and annex the
country to India. in order to prevent fu.
ture complications whatever. The King
OF Burmah wants to raise money to give
q great feast.
