the Republicans might not elect their
GoVernor, they might their Lieutenant
Governor with the same candidate who
had been elected Secretary Of State when
tnere was otherwise a Democratic State
victory.
THE LOCAL FIGHT.
Intense local interest was manifested
IN the contest on the Sheriff. The returns
began early to snow that the issue would
be between Hugh j. Grant, the Tammany
candidate, aud John w. Jacobs, Republ-
can, Andrew j. White, the County De-
mocracy's candidate, being decisivelv in
the rear. The ticket was last canvassed
at midnight, and the result is in
doubt NJ. G. Murphy, County Democrat,
Is elected IN the Filth Senatorial district
after bitter contest with ex-senator
Michael Norton. Reilly (Dem.) wins in
the Sixth, DAILY Dem. wins in the sew
enth, Dunham (Dem.) defeats Senator
Gibbs Rep. in the Eighth district, while
the Ninth is in doubt. Traphagen Dem. }
wins In the Eleventh, and Plunkett
(Dem. in the Twelfth.
THE AssEMBLYMEN.
At this time the returns for Assembly
men are insufficient to give the relative
Democratic and Republican representa-
tiOn from this city.
The headquarters of every political or
ganizatiOn IN the city were crowded with
people who We're anxious to learn the
latest news from the various election dis
tricts. The county Democrats gathered
in Chickering hall
The Tammany hall braves rallied at the
big Wigwam.
The Irving hall Democrats swarmed at
their hall in Irving Place, and the Repub-
hcans gathered in the Grand opera house.
HEARING THE NEWS.
In each of these places returns were
read as fast as they were received. The
largest crowds assembled at Tammany
Hall and the Grand Opera House. When
the dispatch announcing that Gov. Hill
had carried New York city by such ma
Jority as to make his election almost GER
tain was read at Tammany Hall, the
greatest enthusiasm prevailed. The
shouting and hurrahing could be heard
for blocks distant.
i. j. Campbell is elected to succeed S.
5. Cox in Congress from the Eighth dis
trIct.

NEW YORK, Nov. 4. 2 A. M.-Hugh j.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.--The election in this
city and county to-day was for Justice OF
the Supreme Court Of Illinois, TO fill the
vacancy caused by the death Of Justice
4. Lyle Dickey, and Judge Of the Superior
Court Of Cook county. The Republicans
nominated Benjamin ID. Nagruder for the
Supreme Court, and the Democrats con-
Cured In this nomination. The Republi-
cans presented Gwynn Garnett for SUI
periOr Court Judge, and the Democrats
William j. Hynes. Both parties have
presented their own candidates for COM
missioners, and owing 10 the failule OF a
portion or the Republican press to support
all the Republican nominees, a split
ticket has been printed, and was offered
10 voters to-day, containing the names of
portion Of the nominees Of each party.
CAUSES OF THE CONTEST.
The contest over the election Of the
County Commissioners was provoked BY
the condition of the county finances and
q declaration that the present manage
ment has been reckless and eXtravagant.
The chief contest to-day, however, was
over the adoption or rejection Of a
new election law, framed at the last
session OF the Illinois Legislature. The
new law provides for small voting pre-
cincts, and is framed very closely after
the New York law. The Republican and
independent movement favOrs the new
law, while the Democrats oppose its
adoption. The weather was clear and
cool this morning.
ONLY A LIGHT VOTE.
The Appearances at the different polling
places here today indicated that the vote
would be lighter chan usual. The best
information 70 be had from various sour-
ces leads 10 the Impression thar the cleo
ton law Is carried. The polls did not
close TIL O'Clock.
THE ELECTION LAW CARRIED.
"Beyond all doubt the city election law
is carried" said the DQiiy NcDs trans
parency at 0:30 O'Clock
Popular interest here il almost entirely
centred in the fate Of the new election
law, the Democrats having indorsed the
Republican nominee for Judge. Fifty
seven precincts gave 6,sl9 votes for, and
$3.50 against, the election law.
For Commissioners the Democrats are
ahead, except m the case Of Lang, who
ran away ahead Of his ticket On account
of a large amount of scratching the re-
turns come Ia slowly.
NO DOUBT or THE ELECTION LAW.
CHICAGO, Nov. 4, 2 2A.M.-Two hundred
and thirty-seYen precincts have sent in
returns which make 10 a certainty that
the election law is carried. Two Republic
cans and two Democrats have been elected
County Commissioners. The other names
on the tickets are still In doubt. Now
that II rs known that the election law ~
carried, popular interest has largely sub
sided.
REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN.

O'Clock from all but four towns in the
State show the complexion OF the next
House to be as follows: Republicans l29,
Democrats 1l2, Independents 2. The
missing towns will not materially change
the result. The town OF Marlborough is tied
on representatives.. Last year these towns
stood-Republicans 1850, and Democrats
"a. Senatorial elections took place In the
twelve odd numbered districts. Each
party elects 6. or the twelve Senator's
holding over, seven are Republicans
and D Democrats, making the next Senate
stand l3 Republicans and II Democrats.
Last year there were II Republicans and
Z Democrats. This gives the Republicans
a working majority in both branches.

tives. In the Lowell Senatorial district
Lilley defeats Marden. This is a Demo-
cratic triumph. Naphen, Dem, has been
elected to the Senate from the South Bos-
ton district. This is another surprise.
Alger, Dem, defeats Chamberlain in the
Cambridge Senatorial dis riot, which ls
considered a great victory by the Demo
Gratis. Morse, Dem, defeats Hart, Rep,
in the First Norfolk district.

1886 majority in the State.
There are 1894 election precincts in the
State outside OF the 712 in New York city
and the 267 in Brooklyn. From the figures

in This city to Gov. Hill at Elmira:
We congratulate you on your election. Our

ALTON B. PARKER, Chairman Ex. Com.
Whitney is elected by 12,000 majority.
Every Democrat on the county ticket is
elected, and OF the twelve assembly dis
triets the Democrats have carried ten.
The news from Virginia shows that

l.date, is elected Governor by 10000 ma
ority, and that the Legislature is over
whelmingly Democratic.
In Massachusetts Gov. Robinson, the
Republican candidate is reelected Gov
ernor by 10000 majority.
In Connecticut the Democrats have
made large gains in the Legislature.
