AT NEW HAVEN.

Democrats Made Happy by q Very
Heavy Early Vote.
Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Nov. eat 8 o'clock
this morning it was raining. At 6, when the
polls had opened, rain had ceased. A thick fog
settled down over the city, and had not disap-
peared at noon.7 The voting this morning was
the heaviest on both sides ever known in this
city. Before the polls opened long rows of
workingmen stood in front of the voting
places anxious to obey the injunctions Of the
newspapers to vote early. Two hours and a
half after voting began in the fourth ward 700
ballots had been deposited, and in the seventh
ward, another democratic stronghold, 600 votes
had been polled. Similar returns came from
other wards and
THE DEMOCRATS WERE HAPPY,
believing that with such an extraordinarily
heavy poll Cleveland would receive plurality
in the towns which the rest of the state could
not offset; but the republicans showed remark
able activity also, and poled their full strength
From other towns in the state come similar re-
ports. The voting goes on quietly, and is the
largest ever known in Connecticut. There was
some uneasness early in the day among the
democrats over a report that a bogus demo-
cratic ticket had been sent out, defective as to
one electors name the scheme being to get
enough Of these votes into the ballot-box to
cause the defeat of one democratic elector.
No such ballots have appeared in New Haven,
however.
FORGED LETTERS.
NJ. 8. Quay, chairman Of the republican ma
tional committee, telegraphs to chairman Day,
Of the Connecticut republican committee, that
the letters published in the Hartford Telegram
yesterday, addressed to Bulkeley, republican
candidate for governor, signed NJ. S. Quay and
purporting to be copied from Quay's letter
book are forgeries entire. The letters urged
Buckley to withdraw from the race because of
the charges made against him in the Telegram.

NORTH CAROLINA.
Voting for President, Congressman, and
the State Legislature.

WILMINGTON, N. c., Nov. 6.-The democratic,
republican, and prohibition parties have Presi-
Dental tickets in the field in North Carolina
both houses Of the legislature are to be elected,
and an amendment to the state constitution in
creasing the number of judges of the Supreme
Court from three to five is to be submitted.
The democratic candidate for governor is
Daniel G. Fowles, republican candidate Oliver
H. DOckery, prohibition candidate w. F.
Walker. The congressional nominees are:
First district, Skinner, democrat; White, re-
publican. Second district, Simmons, democrat;
Cheatham, republican. Third district, Nc
Clammy, democrat; Robinson, republican.
Fourth district. Bum, democrat; Nochals, re-
Brewer, republican. Sixth district, Rowland,
democrat; Jockey republican. Seventh dis
trict, Henderson, democrat. Eighth district,
Cowles, democrat. Ninth district, Johnston,
democrat; Ewart republican.
The Legislature to be elected will choose a
United States Senator to succeed Ransom, DEM
ocrat. The labor element may exercise some
influence in few counties, but not much sig
nifcance is attached to it. Considerable in
terest, however. is felt in the movements of
the Farmers Alliance, which is believed to be
very strong and may influence the election of
United States Senator While it is expected
that the prohibition vote will be small, if the
election is close it may determine the result.
RALEIGH, N. c., Nov. 6.-The election re-
turns will be compared with the vote for gov
ernor in 1888, when Scales, democrat received
las, 900 and York, liberal republican, 122, 934.
Unusual efforts have been made on both sides
to poll full vote, and the republicans have
sought to carry the legislature, which will
elect United States Senator, and in which two
years ago they combined with the independ-
ents, secured control of the House, and came
near having majority on joint ballot. The
prohibitionists have also been active and their
strength is an unknown element.
RALEIGH, N. c., Nov. 6.-The weather is fair
and pleasant and voting is going ON quietly and
peaceably throughout the state. 1t is probable
that the vote will be very heavy one.

NEW HAMPSHIRE.

Voting for President, Congressman,
Governor and Legislature.
CONCORD, N. H., Nov. 6.-New Hampshire
elects a Governor and legislature to-day be-
sides Presidential electors and Congressman
David II. Goodell Of Antrim, is the republican
and Charles II. Amsden, Of Penacook, is the
democratic candidate for governor. The legis-
lature to be chosen will elect a successor to U.
s. Senator VIM. E. Chandler. Delegates to the
convention which is to convene in January,
1885, to revise the constitution of the state will
also be elected. The probabilities are that
there will be no choice for Governor by the
people, a majority being required to elect;
that Mr.. Mute will defeat Mckinney, who is
now in Congress, and that Mr.. Mann will carry
the second district. The legislature will be
close, with the chances in favor of the republic
cans. This will insure the return of q republic
can to the U. s. Senate.

INDIANA ALSO VOTES EARLY.
Half the Votes in at II O'Clock-PrOmi-
inent Men Arrested.

Special Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. Ga steady rain fell
during the greater part of the morning, but it
has now ceased, and the weather is clear. Re-
ports from over the state indicate an unusually
heavy vote is being polled. In this city the
voting precincts are surrounded by unusually
heavy crowds, many prominent citizens being
present. The vote is coming in very rapidly.
By II O'Clock over half the total vote is said to
have been in many precincts.
PROMINENT MEN ARRESTED.
Up to noon there had been several arrests by
the q. s. deputy marshals for illegal voting and
Mr.. Harry New, a prominent re-
publican and son of John @. New of the Journal,
and Mr.. o. II. Hasselman, a republican worker,
were arrested for alleged intimidation of voters
They were taken before U. s. Commissioner
Morris and released upon their own recogni-
zance. Twelve or fourteen arrests for illegal
voting have been made. All but seven of these
have been dismissed. There are reports Of
many challenges at the different precint polls,
but these are local arrests. Up to noon no
serious trouble is reported.

Immense Vote at st. Louis.

Immense Vote at st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, NO., Nov. 6.-The weather is fair
and cool. Voting Is progressing quietly,
though there are large crowds at the polls
and much interest being manifested. An i'm
mense vote is being polled, and at
this hour, 1880, nearly two-thirds of
the ballots are in the boxes. There
are four tickets in the feld-1epublican, demo-
cratic, union-labor, and prohibition. The
union-labor ticket presents no names for gov
ernor or Acknowledgements.
Not Room Enough for the Voters In
Kansas City.
KANSAS CIrY, No., Nov. 6, 1880 a.m,-weather
cold and clear. Very heavy vote being
polled at every precinct. It Il evident that
scarcity OF voting places will cause many to lose
their votes by being crowded out, az registra-
ton is 30 large that in many precincts votes
will have to be polled at the rate Of one min
ute to get them all in. Advices from points in
Eastern Kansas and Western Missouri show
that heavy vote Is being polled. The indica-
tons are for clearing weather.
The fifth ward in Wyandotte was the scene
OF much confusion this morning. Mayor Har-
man appointed judges contrary to the
Hilliker refused to allow the polls to
be opened, and at o'clock q general row oc-
Cured, which resulted in the police taking
charge Of the ballot-box. The result has not
yet been determined. The ward ID republican.

OHIO.
Rainy Weather and q Heavy Early
Vote Reported.

Rainy Weather and Heavy Early
Vote Reported.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 6.-The weather may be
classed rainy throughout Ohio. It is every
where reported cloudy and threatening. Here
heavy showers fell before 10 o'clock, and the
sky is darkly overcast. In this city the voting
is progressing very rapidly, fully one-half the
entire registered vote being cast before
o'clock. In many precincts two-thirds Of the
vote was cast at that hour
KEEN INTEREST AND SOME DISTURBANCE.
COLUMBUS, ONO, Nov. 6.-Reports thus far
received from the state show a big vote being
cast. Early in the day the vote promised to
be unprecedented. Great interest il being
taken all over the state, and in some quarters
disturbance is feared. At Urbana one arrest
has already been made for illegal voting and
two arrests for creating disturbance are re-
ported from the same place.
VOTING EARLY DESPITE wRErcHED WEATHER.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, Nov. 6-The rain which
began between and 10 with a heavy shower,
has continued slowly with falling tempera-
ture. There is not, at noon, any prospect of
clearing weather. Three-fourths OF the regis
tered voters are reported to have cast their
votes at 10 o'clock. The names and residences
OF the others are ON record In each precinct
0hd committees are at work bringing them in,
so that the whole vote will probably be cast
despite the weather. There have been no
arrests for violation Of tho election law, but
about twenty-five saloon-keepers have been
arrested for keeping their houses open con-
trary to law. The polls close at 4 pm.

Elements Of Uncertainty in the Contes

Elements Of Uncertainty in the Contest.
DENVER, COL, Nov. 6.-Unusual interest is
taken in the election in Colorado this year. 1t
is for all state Offices congressman, members
of the legislature two judges of the supreme
court, county and township officers. There
are elements of uncertainty in this election
which renders predictions of but little value.
One of these is the large increase in population
Denver alone having increased 10000 within
the past two years, and the static
outside Of the city, probably co.
600. The registration in this city is nearly
$4,000, or twice that Of 1885. The state gave
Blaine plurality of nearly 5000 in 1884, The
best politicians, however, do not concede the
state to Harrison by this amount. The con-
test for governor between Hon. T. M. Patterson,
the democratic candidate, and Hon. ]. A.
Cooper, the republican, will probably be very
most animated feature Of the contest, both
parties being confident.

THREATENING THE PRESIDENT,
A Colored Boy Arrested on Complaint Of
Julius Emner.

The attention Of Prosecuting Attorney For
rest, in the Police Court, was called to-day 70
the case Of . colored boy named VIM. Forrest,
who, il was alleged, had made threats against
the President. Sergeant Connolly arrested the
boy this morning on New York avenue, be-
tween 9th and 9TH streets. The sergeant did
not bear him make the threats, but arrested
him on complaint OF Julius Emner, who statsd
TO the officer that the boy had threatened TO
kill the President in case Of his Reelection.
Prosecuting Attorney shillington informed
those interested that the President would have
70 come into court and swear that he was afraid
OF the boy in order 20 maintain the charge. He
did not think that the President desired 10
come into court. nor did he think he would
swear that he was afraid Of the boy. The boy
was DISCHARGED

BOSTON, Nov. 6.-The vote in Cambridge has
been unusually heavy. Most of the independ-
emit votes went to the democrats, who will
probably carry the city. Higginson, democrat,
for Congress, is receiving large vote.
The Journal claims that in the third district
Beard, republican, for Congress, Is making un-
expected gains, and his friends are confident of
his election.
In Mr.. Lodges district he is said to be run
ming ahead OF his ticket. The indications at
Lynn point to Harrison carrying the city. A
very large vote is being cast everywhere.
The pleasant weather is bringing out large
vote. In ward 10, where there is much inter
est in the election Of q Congressman for the
third district, the ward being largely republic
can, there is hot work and II il claimed An
