CINCINNATI, Oct 13.-The election in
this city began without any disorder, and up
to 10 9. m. no arrests had been made. Two
causes contributed to this result-the division
Of the precincts, 50 that no more than three or
four hundred voters are In any one, and the
rain, which prevents crowds from collecting
All the judges are provided with printed lists
Of what are considered fraudulent registers,
and voting Is watched with care. Rain was re.
ported almost all over the state last night and
to-day. This will doubtless have the effect 10
cause light vote throughout the state. The
rain ceased here between II and l2 O'Clock but
the tky Is not entirely clear. The vote up to
II O'Clock showed fully up to the average Good
order has been maintained, though drunken
men are to be found about some OF the voting
places In spite OF the state law requiring all
places where intoxicating liquors are sold to
be closed on election day. Rain was reported
in the central and northern parts OF the state
at noon.
CLEvELASp, Oct l3.-The election pro
crosses In favorable manner. The new reg
istry law is great success aud big vote is
being polled. The morning is wet and dsa.
grecable, but notwithstanding this the cleo
tors turned out in great numbers. The indi.
cations are that Foraker has carried Cleveland
aud Cuyahoea county by about 2,oOo and that
the Republican county ticket is elected by
varying ms joriiies. AL over the Western Re
serve substantial Republican gains are shown
and In only one town (OoerlD) has the Prohi-
bition vote caused Republican loss. A full
vote was poled here, the election being with.
out incident
The Leader will say tomorrow morning that
the whole ,tate Republican ticket is elected by
from 15,oOo To 1900 plurality. The legisla-
turc win be Republican on joint ballot, with
good working majority in both houses The
vote was heavy, and Republicans on the Wet
ern Reserve csme out In full force, every one

suit Will secure the election OF Il Republican

LATER
COLUMBUS, Ohio. October 1.-The
Republican State Executive Committee cs,i-
mates the plurality OF Foraker, Republican,
for Governor. =. 5000 in case the presen,
ratio OF gain lshould continue In the returns
OF Tuesdays clee ton. The Democratic Com.
mittec expresses the belief the plurality will
not exceed 1900, II IL reaches that figure.
Hoadly Il Inclined to the belief thA, Foraker's
plurality will not hc more than 10000 10 H.
Oo when the Official returns are received.
Bo III committees sre still claiming n majority
on joint ballot In the Legislature. The
Democratic Committee claims that IL has car
rtcd the Legislative ticket in Hamilton county
aud tha: they have reliable Information that 1t
will have a NAL ajority on iou; ballot, with if,y-
siI members In the House, and ,~enty-one in
the sepAte.
The r. publican Committees latest estimate
IA that they will have Eve mtjority en- joint
baIlo, outside OF Hamilton county and in case
they should carry this with half OF the other
doubtful counties and districts the House
would stand II Republicans TO ~ Democrats,
and the Senate 81 Republicans to Is Demo
crsts-
UnofYicial returns from nearly all the pre-
cincts which have been csnvasscd since mid
night make Foraker's plurality touch 2l,ooo,
with the rest OF the ticket likely TO exceed
that, with $4,000 votes for Prohibition and
a,Ooo for the Grecnbackcrs, on total vote of
over 70o,o COO The Legislature is Republican
on joint ballot, without the fourteen members
from Hamilton county, by at least five, and
probably ninc. without Hamilton county the
Senate would likely have one Democratic ma
tority. and with Hamilton county the Ecpub-
heans would have a majority OF 33 on joint
ballot and working majority In each branch.
