Early Facts and Figures.

CINcINNATI, O., October 1.-THE cleo
ton yesterday was a very quiet one in
Cincinnati. Two causes contributed to
this result: The division Of the precincts,
so that not more than 500 or 400 voters
are in any one, and the rain, which pre-
vented crowds from collecting. All the
Judges were provided with printed lists
of what were considered fraudulent reg
istries aud the voting was watched with
care. Rain was reported almost all over
the State.
Good order was maintained, though
drunken men were to be found abou:
some of the voting places In spite of the
State law requiring all places where in
toxicating liquors are sold TO be closed
on election day.
The afternoon IN Cincinnati was free
from rain and nearly the full registered
vote was polled. There were some ar
rests for fraudulent attempts TO vote and
some minor disorderly conduct, but In
general it was a peaceable election. The
first returns received by the Associated
Press indicated gains for Foraker.
By half-past nine O'Clock 165 of the
2,o17 voting precincts had been heard
from, showing: Foraker, 25,093; Hoad-
ly, 2l,00S; Leonard, 1,S77-net Republic
can gain, 2,499. 1t was impossible with
these returns to compare the sources of
gain of the Prohibition candidate, but
cursory examination of the returns so
far received indicate Democratic losses
where there were Prohibition gains, in
other words 50 far as could be seen,

disease could be eradicated before the

A Republican Victory.

CINCISSATI, O., October III. B.
ct have been elected, but by what ma
{erity cannot be accurately stated. Early
returns indicate a Republican victory,
| and the reporter found Judge Foraker,
ex-Commissioner of Patents Ben Butter
worth, General Grosvener and others in
q room of the Western Union
Telegraph building at halfpass ten
O'Clock last night. 'sThe scepter
has departed from Judea," said Butter
worth, ''and there sits the next Governor
of Ohio" Judge Foraker was feeling
very comfortable over the prospect.
'"The returns so far" said he, "indcate
the election of the whole Republican
ticket by clear plurality. The present
ratio, Chairman Bushnell wires me, will
give about $4,000 Republican plurality"
There was at that time but little indi-
eating anything definite on the Legisla-
ture, but General Grosvenor said his
figures pointed to a Republican control
of that body. There has been a great
deal of trading and scratching all over
the State and the returns come in slowly.
In Cincinnati at eleven O'Clock one fourth
the precincts were in and showed Hoadly
about 700 ahead. The day was cool and
pleasant in the afternoon, and the cleo
ton was quiet-more so than for years
here. About dozen men were arrested
for Illegal voting, but it is supposed
there were a good many fraudulent votes
cast nevertheless, and there was un-
doubtedly much crooked work in count
ing. In one precinct one judge was
drunk. "Forty straight Democra tic
Tickets" called out a judge in the cunt.
SNAKE it eighty" said the other, "that
Republican is asleep"
By half-past twelve O'Clock this morn
ing judge Foraker was resting assured
of his election. kilograms of congratu-
lation poured in from all quarters, the
first being from ex- Governor Cornell of
New York. That was followed by others
from all over the State. The news was
Unexpectedly favorable, in spite of the
fact that the Prohibition vote was larger
than most had calculated on. General
Grosvenor, Congressman from the Ath-
ems District, was particularly interested
in the Legislature, very gratifying re-
ports as to Republican gains coming in
from time to time. He estimated at mid
night that the Republicans had three
fifths of the Legislature on joint
ballot. As to the State ticket, it had now
become only question of figures. The
Cincinnati returns were still slow. The
Lincoln Club claimed an average major
lily Tor the entire tlcket OF ZU,U mat
is not likely to hold out. 1t will be late
before it is definitely settled.
John r. Mclean said: 81 know moth
ing as to the State, but I am inclined to
think the Democrats have carried Hamil-
ton County," The crowds on the street
were getting thinner, but were still
mixed in composition, though the Re-
publicans were getting more and more
jubilant, and the Democrats were grad
ually transferring their interest to local
candidates

The Result OF High Rents.

WASHINGTON, D. c., October 15.-Con-
cradle numbers, and there are only about
twenty who are in for the winter. There
will be more boarding during the coming
season, as the house rent is so high that
members and Senators find housekeeping
very expensive. Congress convenes De-
cember sth, and 1t is generally conceded
that the Senate will be engaged exclu-
sively upon executive business until the
holidays, hence members will not gener-
ally reach the city until about the LIST OF
December.

Later Returns.

CINCINNATI, O., October 14.-Although
the returns from the State are not all in,
enough had been received to show tina,
the State had gone Republican, and this,
of course, lessened the interest
in later returns. Reports continued
to come in, however, and results were
confirmatory of earlier figures. The Re.
publicans elect two Senators in the Cuya.
hoga district and two Representatives in
Franklin County; one in Union and one
in Hardin County. The Democrats elect
one in Franklin County.
Returns from 754 voting precincts in
the State give Foraker 143, 727; Hoadly,
1913, 635; Leonard, 9,6l1-a net Republi-
can gain of II, 652. This includes more
than one-half of the State.
