SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2.-Reports re.
ceived from ITO points covering nearly ell
OF the counties in the State announce cool
and bright weather. Great interest is
manifested all over the State in the elec-
tions, and with the exception of Santa
Rosa and Newhsll, a full vote is being
polled at all points.
IL A. M.-The elections are proceeding
quietly, and a heavy vote is being polled.
The American ticket is cutting considera-
BILE Of a figure. and is drawing votes from
both sides. There are seven State tickets
and IL municipal tickets In the field in
this city. This causes very heavy scratch
ing, and, as a consequence, the count Of
the vote after the polls have closed will be
very slow.
NooN-Nearly half OF the entire number
OF those who registered have cast their
vote. At every poll ticket peddlars repre-
senting nearly every ticket that is in the
field are busily at work. The excitement,
though subdued, is interesting. The re-
suit appears to be equally as great, if not
greater, than 1t was during the last cleo
ton. Quiet prevails everywhere. No
trouble OF any kind has been reported up
to this hour. There are no indications
yet ascertsinsble as to how the vote is
going. The streets generally bear a holi-
day appearance. Most OF the large bus
mess houses are closed. The only signs OF
activity are about polling places. Many
candidates are still making a fight, and
carriages and buggies are seen darling
from poll to poll, their occupants re-
ceiving the latest information and giving
hAsty instructions TO their workers.
2P. M.-The interest in the election is
80 great In this city that it is expected the
full registered vote will be polled, less
those who happen to be out of the city
or prevented by sickness. At half-past l
o'clock so, 900 votes had been polled, rep
resenting nearly three.fourths of the total
registered vote. The American vote up
to l O'Clock P. NJ. had, Of close estimates,
polled 1000 votes, and their total vote
would reach 5000, or nearly one-ffth OF
the total vote. The O'Donnell vote was
also polling it's full strength. The result
Of this ia to leave the two great parties
On an even footing. 1t has been observed
that every voter of the American ticket
was q young man. A fact worthy Of
notice is that Notwithstanding the deep
interest shown by all persons In the cleo
tons the streets are as quiet as ON M
ordinary holiday. The fact of its being a
legal holiday and having fine weather
prompted many to vote early and then
go off into the suburbs with their fami-
lies for q quiet time.
$50 P. M.-The reports filed at l P. N.
and received here are as follows: Naps,
345 votes cast; Swift's majority is believed
TO be $50. At Athlone 48 votes we're
polled, the Prohibition ticket leading. At
Windsor three-ifths of the total vote was
cast. At Russian River precinct Bartlett
was leading. At Redding, al votes
polled; Swift ahead, Calf, 10 votes polled,
indications in favor of Swift. Newcastle;
Al voted-22 for Swift, 10 for Bartlett,
and 9 for Russell. Dutch Flat. 80 votes

votes polled. Republicans largely ahead on
| the State ticket. MERGED, 1874 votes cast
in East MERGED, 119 in South MERGED, lat
In West MERGED; Republican county osndi-
dates are running ahead of their ticket.
Santa Ana, $50 votes polled; the scratch
ing on Senatorial and Assembly ticket is
heavy. Monterey, 179 votes polled; Repub-
licans leading. Santa Paula, about half
Of the votes polled, equally divided be-
tween the two great parties. Tomales,
so votes cast; Republicans running be-
hind. San Mateo, 102 votes polled;
Republicans making large gains. .Acampo
60 votes cast; Prohibition ticket is we'll
up. Dixon, 265 votes cast. very close;
heavy scratching. Senryp, go votes polled
out OF a possible los; Swift ahead. Grass
Valley, 456 votes polled-about equally
divided.
SAN Francisco, Nov. 2.-The greatest
interest and the strongest fight here is
conferred on the legislative ticket. The
registration is not quite as large as in
1884, but the proportion OF voters TO the
number registered is as great as in 1884.
About half o dozen arrests for illegal
voting has been made.
Wigginton's vote is proving to be larger
than at first indicated, and O'Dopnell is
showing increased strength. In the
southern part Of the city 1t is claimed he
is running ahead Of all other candidates,
aud in nearly ell the districts he is leading
Wiggington. The O'Donnell vote is
mostly drawn from Bartlett. In the
T~wenty.ninth District Swift Is reported
to be running we'll while vote
is cutting largely in the Democratic vote.
In the Thirty-eighth District the American
ticket is leading in some precincts, and is
running we'll in nearly all. In that por-
ton OF this district lying south Of Market
street O'Donnell is playing q prominent
part. In the Thirty.ffth and Thirty
sixth Districts O'Donnell and Wiggington
are said to be polling a heavy vote.
SAN JOSE, Nov. ABOUT 1000 votes
| had been polled up 30 l o'clock in the four
wards OF this city. and great energy was
| being shown by both parties. There ia
more scratching than was ever known
before. This is largely In favor Of Fulton
| for Congress and ReA for Railroad Com.
| missioner. The side show tickets are
cutting q very small figure in the fight.
One man was arrested this morning for
an attempt at illegal voting. His name
is Pedro Rodriguez.

ceeding very quietly. The total vote cast
