PRAYING FOR LANGSTON.
Remarkable Methods Employed in the

Remarkable Methods Employed in the
Petersburg Congressional Contest.
Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
PETERSBURG, Va, Nov. 5.-Brady, member of
the republican national committee, has Just in
formed The STAR correspondent that the organ
ization created and perfected by him on behalf
Of Langston is the most complete and far
reaching that the wit of political manager
has ever devised. He claims to have reached
by direct personal solicitation every colored
voter in the district, and to have made him the
object Of special exhortation and prayer from
the church to which the voter, his wife, moth
er, or some near kinsfolk belongs. Yesterday,
he says, was set apart by the colored clergy as
day devoted to the cause of the colored can
didate.
SERMONS WERE PREACHED
in every colored church in the district Deacons
and other dignitaries, heads of religious socie-
ties, males and females, together with every
piously inclined man and woman. were ex-
pected yesterday to express their souls sincere
desire for the election of Professor Langston
to seat in Congress. Tonight the Colored
Young Mems Christian Association is to meet in
Langston Hall, and with prayer, supplication,
&C., will watch until morning, when with re-
gala and banners they will march in q body to
the polls. Toward this
soLIDIFIcArIoN OF THE COLoRED VOTE,
the white republicans as well as democrats,
have formed a solid hostile array, and in this
city, where there are several hundred white
republicans, only three white men are known
to favor LangstOn. Should circumstances con-
spire to favor it, row, either at the polls
here tomorrow or on the day succeeding the
election, attended with bloodshed, is not an
improbable expectation. Brady claims that
the state on fair ballot must go for Harrison,
and that Langston will have plurality of 1900
or 5000 in the district.

A DAY OF DOUBT.
The Campaign Closed and Nothing to dc
Now but to Wait for the Returns.


The politicians have all left Washington to-
day. They have all gone homo or to New York
to take q closer view of the canvass. The few
people Of prophetic minds still al out the hotels
and departments are not anxiyhs TO risk their
regulations by guessing on the election so near
at hand. Interested parties waver between
doubt, anxiety and over-confdence. This is
true Of both sides. The time of high intellec-
tual discussion, the period of public parade,
the few last days for sensations and roorbacks,
have all passed, each in turn. Now there is
nothing left but the trickery and ''boodlng" that
is supposed to occur the night before and on
the morning of the election. Here at Wash
ington even talking is not profitable, and there
is nothing to do but to wait as calmly as pos
sible for the returns. Returns as announced
elsewhere. will be received at the various club
headquarters and other public resorts.
THE ELECTRIC WIRE AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
There is special wire in the White House
at all times, and on election night the operator
will be on hand to receive the Associated Press
reports and such private dispatches as may be
sent to the President from Brice and others.
1t is expected of course, that the President and
Col. Lamont will remain at the White House
late tomorrow night.
AT REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS THEY THINK THE
REPUBLICANS WILL HAVE THE NEXT HOUSE.
A STAR reporter called at the headquarters
Of the Republican National League this after
noon and found everything in quiescent state.
Mr.. Mcpherson. secretary of the republican
congressional committee. had gone home to
vote, saying that he would be back by to-mor-
row night. Major Cook, second in charge,
said that the work of the canvass had
all been done, and that they were
simply clearing out the rubbish to-day
They have done a great deal Of work during
follow tomorrow. The estimate of those who
have been active throughout the canvass is
that the republicans will certainly have a ma
jority in the next House of Representatives.

Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
COLUMBUS, ONO, Nov. 5.-There is a hustling
among the politicians to-day, and considerable
excitement prevails. Betting is more general
than at any previous election in the history of
the city. The mayor has issued an order that
all saloons must be closed tomorrow, and gives
notice that any violators will be severely dealt
with. The use of horns on the streets, which
has become great nuisance, is also prohibited.
The greatest interest is manifested in the con-
gressional elections throughout the state. In
this district Congressman Cultivate will have
hard time in getting through with anything
like a respectable majority, as the
the republicans have made a most
vigorous contest against him. The
Indications point to the election of the follow
ing-named republican Representatives: First
district, Benjamin Butterworth; second district,
John A. Coldwell; third district, E. s. Will
liams seventh district, Henry l.. Morey; eighth
district Robert p. Kennedy; ninth district,
VIM. C. Cooper; eleventh district, H. G. Thomp-
son; twelfth district, John Pugsley; fourteenth
district C. P. Wickham; fifteenth district C..
ii. Grosvenor; seventeenth district, ]. D. Tay-
lor; eighteenth district, VIM. Mckinley; nine
teenth district, E. B. Taylor; twentieth dis
trict, NJ. l.. Smyser; twenty first district, T. E,
Burton. The sixth, now represented by M. NJ
Boothman, and the seventh, represented by
Jacob Romeis, are in doubt. The democrats
will elect Yoder in the fourth; Seney in the
fifth; Cultivate probably in the thirteenth,
and Owens in the sIxteenth-a total of four.
They have, however, a fighting chance in two
districts not put in the doubtful list, but moth
ing at all sure.

Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Nov. editor W. F.
Graham, Of the Meriden Republican, who has
managed the campaign of Lines, the republican
candidate for Congress from the second dis
trict said to-day that Lines would go out
of New Haven with 1000 majority, and that he
would carry the district. Graham thinks that
Morris, democrat, will receive more votes for
governor than Buckley, republican, but as
the legislature is sure to be republican Bulke-
ley is assured of an election.
That Harrison will carry Connecticut Ora
ham says there is no doubt. Both sides are
working hard, too, and both sides are confident
of the fullest vote ever known in the state.
The Tariff Reform Club, Of this city, has
completed its canvass of the state, and gives
Cleveland 800 plurality. The Hartford lele-
gram, democrat, this morning says that
BULKELEY HAS REFUSED TO WITHDRAW
from the race for governor, although he was
urged to do so by prominent republicans Of
the state, and allow General Merwin, of
this city, now candidate for ieutenant-gover-
nor to take Bulkeley's place at the head Of the
ticket: According to the Telegram, Quay,
urged Buckley to step down in
favor of Merwin and place the republicans un-
der lasting obligations, and agreeing to pay
all expenses incurred by Bulkeley in the cam
paign. Bulkeley replies to-day in a card Of
sering to give $4,000 to the charitable
societies Of Hartford on proof satisfactory to
three Supreme Court judges Of the truthfulness
Of the charges against his moral character
made in the Hartford Telegram.
