"NEw YORK, Nov. s, ga. m.-New
York has gone for Harrison by 5000 to
10000 majority and this ensures his cleo
tion. Nothing yet to hear from can
change the result.
JOHN C. REID, New York Times

several States are as follows

of II, ,19l.
The Tribune figures out a plurality of

being made where authentic figures are
lacking By the same means Hill is
given plurality OF 16,4l4. The Sun
says that Harrison has 11,762 plurality,
House of Representatives will be so
evenly divided between the two parties
that an official count will be necessary to
decide which is in the majority. Its fig
ures show that Indiana gives Harrison a
plurality of about 2000.

rison of 1875 and for Cleveland 800, and

publican plurality of 1888. The two
missing towns will probably increase the
Republican plurality about 80 votes.
COLUMBUS, Nov. THE two State
! committees are still receiving returns
from the State and figuring up their gains
, and losses. The Republicans are claiming
plurality of from 5000 to 10000. The
Democratic committee say that complete
or conservatively estimated returns from
% out of ss counties give evidence of a
Democratic gain of little over 5000; and
if this ratio continues, which they scarce
ly dare hope, they will carry the State.
They say that there is no doubt that they
have cut down the Republican plurality
to small figure.
