ital of the state announce that the demo-
cratic state treasurer, Mr. Thompson, con-
cedes West Virginia to the republicans by
from 400 to 700 majority. This is simply a
confirmation of the steady republican gains
that have been coming i'll to-day. The re-
publican state committee here claim the
state by much larger majority. They
claim to have at least three and probably
solid delegation of four congressman. They
claim majorities for the electoral ticket
and a majority in the legislature.
The scene of republican enthusiasm in
this city tonight is unprecedented. Thou
sands of people have crowded the streets in
front of the I1eteHigeRcer building reading
bulletins, and on every side is heard the
cry that "the solid south" is broken at last
by the vote of this state.

MICHIGAN RETROGRADEs.
Harrison's Plurality $4,000 Against
3,3O8 for Blaine.


DETROIT, Nov. S.-Harrison's plurality
in Michigan will reach $4,000, against 8 ,3OS
for Blaine in 1884. This surprisingly large
gain is undoubtedly due to the return of
the greenbackers to the old party lines.
Four years ago the fusion vote of the state
was 1s9,361, the straight democratic vote
being 49, ,s35, and the greenback vote
Al ,49O. The combined greenback and

CANvASSING THE RETURNS
Under the law of Indiana this was the
day when the supervisors OF elections con-
vened in each county to canvass the returns
boards are consequently now in session
throughout the entire state, and it is thought
that by late hour tonight the vote of the
state by counties will be obtainable, al
though this is doubtful. The canvassing
board for this (Marion) county is now in
session in this city. They ara reported to
be having lively time over the question as
to whether the county clerk, John z. Sulli-
van. should act as reader for the board.
935 precincts in Indiana give Harrison
41,9O7 and Cleveland 141,0S4 The same

DUBLIN, Nov. S.-United Ireland ex'

says it has friends in both camps. Gen.
Harrison, the paper thinks, owes his cleo
tioa TO the Sackville affair, as Irish voters
suspected President Cleveland Of being
friendly with Lord Salisbury. The paper
then says:
While IL is 1atterng 20 the Irish 10 be able 70
turn the scale in such n contest. the fact is re.
gretable. as 1t Is also humiliating and menaclng
TO America. The Irish vote exists as a separate
and menacing factor In American politics, be-
cause the fact that Ireland Is without home rule
rankles as a spearhead in the relations between
the English-speaking races IL would be cheap
for America 20 establish home rule In Ireland,
even at the cost Of war with Great Britain We
