Morton. Small plurality for Repub-
licans in this State. Hill reelected
Governor by about 10000 plur-
atty. Indiana probably Republican by
q small majority. Republicans will
have good working maj 0rity in the
next Congress" &
The last edition of the Sun makes
Harrison's plurality IN the state 10. DOL
An extra World says at 2 80 p. n. the
National Demo cratic Committee an
nounced that New York was so doubt
fol that the official count would be ne
cessary to decide the election. This
will take three DAYS.
BROOKLYN, N. Y, November THE
result of The election in Kings County
was q surprise to the Democratic lead
ers who expected % 600 plurality for
Cleveland. The shrinkage is accounted
for by the returns of the Mugwumps
and Prohibitionists of four years ago to
the Republican party.
The Evening Journal estimates a
plurality of 1900 for Harrison, and
1000 for Hill in New York State. Re
publicans gain nine assemblymen. The
! Congressional delegation is unchanged
in political proportion.
The Euensng Netcs. Democrat, in a
late extra. heads up its election matter
thus: mot yet settled. Cleveland de-
pending on Illinois and California;
New York State probab Republican:
| Connecticut and Indiana both Demo-
| cratic" -....-
The mater thus lsaded up here fol-
l0ws: The result of the election for
President is still in doubt. Democrats
claim Illinois, California and Nevada,
which would elect Cleveland without
New York, as the Democrats have
undoubtedly carried New Jersey, Con
pec'iclt and Ind;2-a. It looks as if
New York State had been carried by
the Republicans, as the returns from
Republican counties continue to pour
in gains. The latest returns show Hsr-
rison's plurality to be about 5000 in
this State, but many of the counties are
estimated. Captain Mcclellan, secre-
tary of the executive campaign COM
mittee, has telegraphed the State com
mittees of Illinois and Wisconsin for
the latest returns. Both States are
still in doubt. The national committee
does not concede New York to the Re
publicans. No returns have been re-
ceived to show anything more than that
the State is close. Connecticut and
Indiana have been won. California
news is very favorable to the Demo-
Gratis, and in Illinois there is firm
claim for the Democratic Presidential
and gubernatorial tickets.
NEW YORK, November The Evsn-
ing World extra quotes Chairman Brice,
of the Democratic National committee
as having said: 1--WE concede nothing,
and from the latest returns there is a
fair indication that Cleveland has
carried New York State
Following this in the World extra is
this: This is what they say at the
National Democratic headquarters and
it was given out as the official utter
ance of the national committee to
crowd of anxious visitors who thronged
the parlors this morning, in search of
the latest news. The statement is based
upon the fact that corrected returos
from the in erior counties of the State
show a large cutting down of the
earlier Harrison gains, and many OF
the counties whose plurality had al
ready been given, purporting to sbs in
full, are still found to be incomplete.
Especially is this true, it is claimed, in
there will be fight before the count is
completed. When it was learned that
Illinois and Wisconsin might be
close States, as well as Indi-
ana and Connecticut, kilograms
were sent to the chairmen of
the State committees in each State. |
Mr.. DeForest was the only one al the
Democratic State committee rooms. |
He said: ave are not in as bad shape
as we we're on the day after the election
in 1884. We will concede nothing.
have wired to every county for revised
returns. Till l receive them, shall
claim the State. There are errors in
Kings County returns, though how ex-
tensive l do not know. The count will
be looked after
At Republican headquarters Colon,l
Quay said: 81 can't say anything until
1t is all over. Of course, Harrison is
elected, and has undoubtedly carried
New YORK. State. / am told that an at
tempt has been made by Dem ocrats in
Kings County to steal the State, but
they can't do it,"
New YORK, November THE vote

New York and Kings Counties, show
plurslities for Cleveland Of 1886, and
for Harrison of 90,147. making Har-
rison's plurality in the State II, 191.
