 fever heat here tonight and the most extrav- agant reports come from Cincinnati concern ing what will be the result in case there is any open attempt at fraud in connection with the counting of the vote. Some of those who have have me up from Cincn- nati this evening say there is the greatest in- dignation over what has already been dis covered, and fears are expressed by the bet ter class of citizens that there will be repe- tition of the riots. Some of the Democratic committee men are here and they are closet ed. It is understood they are making ar engagements to look after the count in the close counties and to send agents to the diff ferent localities to represent them. They are still claiming the legislature on joint ballot by the same figures which they gave out last evening with ffty-six members in the House and twenty one in the Senate. They claim Hamilton county solid while the Republicans have settled down to the idea that they have from 400 to 800 majority on the whole ticket with the exception of one candidate for the House, Colonel Robert Harlan.
 The contest hinges there and if there is any trouble it will originate from that point. Should the Republicans find they cannot se- cure the legislature on joint ballot without Hamilton county they will make deperate onslaught to secure part of it at least.
 A large number of prominent Republicans have come in from different points of the State on the evening trains and they are making efforts to meet the enemy in any thing which may be attempted in the close counties The chairman of the committee of the close counties where the contests have not yet been decided have put them on guard to the effect that there is an effort being made to steal United States sena- torship to use the greatest care in the pro- lection of the tally sheets and poll-books.
 There has been considerable of the brag- gadocio on both sides and they have contrib uted about equally at the headquarters of the several committees to the excitement by the noisy and extravagant claims which have been made in regard to the legislative ticket. At Democratic headquarters tonight they are firing of skyrockets and the Repub hean committee early in the evening caused a cannon to be fired over the result. At the Republican headquarters they claim to have semi-oficial returns from all the counties in the State with the exception of chree- Starke, Lucas and Harden-and the esti- mates show that FoTaker has carried the State by plurality of about 19, GOO and the balance of the ticket will get over 10000. The Republicans have weakened since last evening on their claims of majority on joint ballot and working majority in each branch Tonight they claim seventeen Senators and fifty eight members, which would give them majority of only three on joint ballot. But this claim leaves Starke, Lucas and Harden in dor11f ale thk. in, the Dayton district. If the Democrats should get these doubtful counties they will have majority of three on joint ballot, but the Republicans are claiming all of them. These deductions which made by the Republican committee are based on the sup position that the Democrats will have the entire delegation from Hamilton county with the exception of the one member. The Re publicans claim majorities in Hamilton on the entire ticket from 400 to 800. All sorts of stories are rife tonight as to how the thing is going to come out.
 Governor Hoadley in an interview express es regrets over information which he has re- ceived that there has been corruption in some of the counties and districts. He con graduates the State and the Democrats that have accomplished one thing at the election, if nothing else-that is, that they have done away with October elections in the State, and it will be some consolation, he
 
 legislature in order that they might be able to administer a rebuke to Sherman and his methods.
 CINCINNATI, Oct. 15.-The report sent out from Columbus tonight concerning political affairs in this city is somewhat extravagant. The Republicans claim the election of the entire legislative ticket with one exception while the Democrats are equally confident they have elected the entire ticket save two county officers. The figures show closeness in the vote that is uncomfortable to both parties. In several cases, perhaps, the eff cial count will be necessary to decide who is elected, but on the face of the returns the Democratic legislative ticket is elected. There is no excitement here whatever. No one has been arrested; nor is there any req son to think there will be trouble.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-A private dis patch received here tonight from Cincin- nati from Republican source which states that official figures will show that the Re publicans will have majority in both the house and senate, and eighteen majority on joint ballot, that they have elected nine representatives and four senators in Hami1- ton county and the Democrats have elected one representative. Hoadley carries Hamil- ton county by 360 majority, running 1000 ahead of the legislative ticket. The Demo- crats elect four of the local ticket in Cincin-
