Election Returns.

The election of yesterday shows large re-
publican gains all over the country. Old Mis-
souri, gains three co.'s !essmen, possibly five;
Connecticut one, possibly more; Virginia
ditto, and West Vire mia is in doubt as to the
whole democratic docket. Not one of the lake
! states so confidently claimed for Cleveland
have come within 1900 of carrying his cleo
toral ticket. Connecticut is claimed by both
PAL ties and Indiana returns { : far as heard
from give large Hal son gains, indicating his
certain victory in his home state. At an early
hour this morning the New York Herald and
the New York Sun conceded their state to
Ham ison by nearly fifteen thousand, while the
Tribune put the fig dres at twenty thousand.
The vote in New York City, showed, as
was expected a small falling of in the vote
Blaine, but the 1G@9 interior precincts heard
from give Han son majority over Cleveland
of A., }, and this gain continued throughout
| the remaining precincts would give Harrison
a plurality outside of New York and Brook
Ign of fully So o to Offset the 670C) plurality
of Cleveland within those cities. The situa-
| ton is full of encC 'ragement. The election
or republican house of representatives IS
assured and there is strong reason to conclude
that New jersey, which has not been cs'm
by the republican party this year. is the only
northern state that goes democratic. The full
returns will be waited for with great eager
ness by the country.
