may caused by reports received that

THE REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS.
A special wire was put IN at the Re-
publican State headquarters at the Gilsey
House this morning, but it was not
thought likely that any news from out in
the State would be received before the
middle Of the afternoon. At Mr.. Roosa-
VelGs headquarters in the Fifth Avenue
Hotel things were very lively this morn
ing. Elihu Root, Chairman OF the Re-
publican County Committee. was there
| Special Committee of Twenty of
the Republican Club, who then
| scattered over the city to see how things
were going on. By II O'Clock Mr.. Root had
heard from most Of these gentlemen and
he said that from all reports Mr.. R0ose-
Welt was receiving hearty support from
the party all through the city. Mr.. Root
admitted that from two Assembly dis
triCts he had received dispatches stating
,F . xLn f.oty, Rcs, a.
out, but in neither of these districts,
he asserted, would this crooked work
affect Mr.. Roosevelt. Reports had also
! been received that MIR. GEORGE was
polling a heavy vote, and as this was said
10 be coming almost entirely from the
| Democrats. the feeling at the Republican
headquarters was verv hopeful. The
people there were very happy over the
| fine weather, and Mr.. Roosevelt, who
came down early. was feeling very conf
dent. Mr.. Roosevelt spent an bour or
more answering messages Of good cheer
which he had received. One of them was
! from eX-President Arthur.
At iammany Hall the first indication
of how the voting was going was received
from the Seventh ward. 1t said that MIR.
Hewitt was running very well in the
lower districts, and that the vote for
MIR. Grady was away ahead OF that for
Mr.. Campbell. A tour of the Eighteenth
Assembly district found the Republicans
in great numbers out for Hewitt.
At the Hoffman House, at 3 O'Clock
this afternoon, the betting was % to 2 on
| Hewitt.
The present Assembly consists of IT
Republicans and 81 Democrats. The
changes at this hour indicate that the
Democrats have gained Third, Rensss-
| laer, and Tenth New York districts, and
! the Republicans have gained Seneca and
| the First Wayne district, one party thus
! balancing the other.
WATCHING THE RETURNS.
Ten thousand people watched the re-
! turns thrown in stereOpticon views in
| Madison square tonight. The Republi-
! can headquarters We're crowded with anX-
ious partisans. The Democratic head
| quarters were closed. Mr.. Hewitt
was seen at the Fifth Ave-
nue. Hotel early in the
evening. He was confident that he was
elected. A number OF instances are re-
ported in which George ters were in

Tammany Democrat will be arrested fol
bribing voters to vote the Democratic
