ALBANY, Nov. THE Argus dem. J
says the state gives Harrison a major
ity of 10000 over Cleveland.
BROOKLYN, Nov. THE result OF
the election in Kings county was a
surprise to the Democratic leaders,
who expected 1900 plurality for
Cleveland. The shrinkage is accounted
for by the return of the Mugwumps
and Prehibitionists OF four years ago
TO the Republican party. The major
will not exceed 49, 600 IN Kings county.

NEW YORK, No. 7, II p. m.-The un-
official vote OF all counties in the state,
as far as returns are received, show a
plurality for Cleveland of 1856 and
for Harrison of 9o,147, giving Harrison
plurality in the state OF l,l9l.
ELEVEN THOUSAND PLURALITY,
NEW YoRK. Nov. THE Tribune
says: Revised returns of the vote
for president, with careful estimates
where authentic figures are lacking,
give Harrison ii 600 plurality in this
state.
Returns and estimates from every
county, completed on a good basis
with the 7bibHae's table OF pluralitiss
for president, show that Hill has net
plurality of about $500.

0.263,a plurality for Cleveland
Of s57. The county COM
plete in 1884 gave Blaine 69.25i.
Cleveland 90 600, plurality for Blaine
of s64. As there has been no doubt
that the state outside OF Cook county
went heavily for Harrison, though
possibly by a somewhat less plurality
than for Blaine in 1884, there would
now appear to be absolutely no ques-
ton, Notwithstanding the great gain
for Cleveland in Cook county, that it
is safe for Harrison.
CHICAGO, Nov. THE vote of 81
counties in Illinois, including Cook,
shows vote for Harrison OF 3s,9i3.

the same result as in 1854. the state

of 1892. Ii is safe to say, therefore,
that Harrison's plurality will be about

The Democrat local ticket in Cook

WASHINGTON, Nov. THE Post to-
morrow will say: The president takes
the result calmly and philosopicalIy.
He talked quite freely about the re
turns and the increased Republican
vote, but expressed not the slightest
regret in the world at any action he
had taken during his adrainisfrati0. n
He is willing to admit that his posi-
ton on the tariff and the decided
stand he took in favor of revenue re-
dnctions may have lost him good
many votes. but still maintains ii
it were to be done over
again he would follow the die
tates OF his convictions. The president
received no kilograms from the ma
tional Democratic committee until late
this afternoon. From what he has
heard. however, he comedies that he is
defeated. He attributes his defeat to
no one in particular, and says The.
Hill and Tammany Hall tras.ed him
with perfect fairness, aad he has no
fault to find at all.
