CINCINNATI Oct. 13.-The election in Ohio to-
day was for State and county officers, for 81
Senators and 10 Representatives of the General
Assembly, and upon four amendments TO the Con-
sttution of the State. three of which relate to
changing the State election from October to No
yember, and one to changing the term of office for
township trustees. Governor Hoady is the Dem
Ocratc candidate for reelection; j. b. Foraker
the Republican candidate, and Rev. A. b. Leonard
are 2O17 voting precincts in the State. A com
pariSon will be made with the vote for Governor
IN 1888, when Governor Hoadly was elected by a
plurality of IL, ,529 over Foraker.
The afternoon in this city was free from rain,
and 50 far as can now be told nearly the full regis
for fraudulent attempts to vote and some minor
dsorderly conduct, but in general it was peace
able election.
The first returns received by the Associated
Press indicate gains for Foraker. When 20 pre-
cincts had been heard from he had net gain Of
359. The Prohibition vote gives indications of
considerable gain.

animation of the returns SO far received indicates
Democratic losses where there are Prohibition

the Prohibition vote is drawn from both parties.

Bulletin-33o precincts in the State show net
Republican gain OF 1927.
TOLEDO, Oct. 13.-The vote today averages 10
to 15 per cent. less than that of last year. The
prohibition vote was small in this city and showed
scarcely any increase. Returns are coming in
very slowly on account of the large number of
scratched tickets, but the indications are that the
Republicans have elected most of their county
| ticket by somewhat decreased plurality from
last year. The exceptions are Wade and Puck,
the former for Sheriff and the latter for Repre-
| sentative. Baumbach, (Republican) for Repre-
sentative, is believed to be elected by a small

MARIETTA, Oct. 1s.-The Republicans elect q

| CLEVELAND, o., Oct 13.--At midnight Majol
| W. w. Armstrong Of the Plaindealer said: 81

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 13.-Of the 81 Senators the
| Republicans claim 21. Gov. Hoadly arrived from
Cincinnati at 1870 O'Clock and proceeded directly
| to the Democratic headquarters where Chairman
Powell with other members OF the committee ant
| few friends were inspecting the returns. The
| Governor was asked if he did not think he wa:
| beaten, and replied: "No this is just nice
close fight and will not so 5000 either way" The
Democratic committee, however, is inclined tt
concede everything, and say their only hope o.
carrying the Legislature is solid delegation iron

CHICAGO, Oct 13.-The Inter-Ocean Columbus
| O., special says "The election in Ohio today
passed off without any serious disturbance, al
though in many sections of the State party spirit
ran high and personal collisions were only avoid
ed by cooler heads. Party lines were closely
| drawn in some localities, but the scratching has
been without parallel in Ohio elections. In thi;
city the pencil brigade was most formidable, anC
Myers the ring candidate for the legislature, has
| been defeated without doubt. The count is ne
cessarily slow, because of the manner in which
candidates have been slaughtered There has
been cutthroat game played also in the county
ticket. Myers commenced the work of trading
after which he was cut right and left by the
friends of the other candidates.
At this hour-lo, o,30-returns are coming II
slowly aud unsatisfactory. From the reports
thus far received, the Republicans have made
gains in their own and Democratic strongholds
with the exception of one preciuct in Hooking
one in Henry, and one in Huron county. In tht
last named the prohibition vote was large. The
State, at this hour, is claimed by both parties, bu
