tee, sends telegram to Chairman Quay saying
that half the State had been heard from, that II
the same ratio of gains held the State would

jority of three on Q joint ballot.
Chairman Reilly, OF the Democratic State
Committee claims the State for Fleming for
Governor by 1000 to 1900. and for Cleveland by
considerable more. He furnishes no figures
for . basis.

Luo ooAote in tho I1ouso--a majority NJ 2

INDIANA.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 1O.-The returns
from the State show total pluralitie for Har-
rison of 2S,255. and for Cleveland Of @, 1874, a
plurality in the whole State for Harrison OF
1881. No figures have been received on the
vote for Governor. but Hovey is known to
have run behind the electoral ticket in some
counties, and his plurality will fall below
Harrison 5. The Official count will be required
to determine it. From nearly complete re-
turns from all the Congressional districts it is
believed the Indiana delegation in Congress
will stand: Democrats, o; Republicans
4: an increase OF three for the Dem
ocrats The Democratic gains are in
the First, Eighth, Eleventh and Twelfth
Congressional districts. Steele was defeated
in the Eleventh by only 300 votes. In the Gen.
eral Assembly the Democrats have majority
on joint ballot OF q, CT which is in the Sen.
ate and ID in the House. Their gain in Leg,s-
lative representatives is 20.
ILLINOIS.
CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-From the best informa-
ton now ut hand, it is estimated that the Re
publican majority in lllino on the Presi-
dental ticket will run over 1900. Fifer's
majority is put at 1900, but it is doubtful If it
reaches these figures. The entire State ticket
is elected by handsome majorities, and the
Congressional delegation will stand Is Repub-
Ncans to Democrats.
WISCONSIN,.
MILWAUKEE, Wis.,, Nov. 1O.-The election re-
turns from out the State are still very slow In
coming in, and not more than half the counties
have been heard from in full. On the figures
already received Chairman Payne estimates
that the State will give at least $1,000 for
Harrison, but Chairman Usher thinks
it will not exceed 1900 There has
been great deal Of surprise over
the fact that w. D. Hoard, the Gubernatorial
candidate. has not run ahead Of Harr son, as he
was expected to get great many Democratic
farmers. This is explained by the fact that
the Prohibitonists cast big vote for Har-
rison and then voted for their own Guber-
material candidate. The later returns, how
ever, indicate that Hoard will make up this
loss and fin sh very close to Harrison and a
good away ahead of portion Of the State
ticket. The Legislature will be overwhelm-
ingly Republican. The Labor element has
been entirely eliminated from the Assembly,
but retains one representative in the Senate
Assuming that Kempf will obtain the seat OF
the Fourth district the Senate will stand: Re
publicans. Is: Democrats, 6; Labor; I; Inde-
pendent, 1. The Assembly will stand: Repub-
ltcans, 20; Democrats, 80. On joint ballot the
vote will be: Republicans, 95; Democrats, 81;
Labor. /; Independent, ]. The two notable
absentees will DO Gabe Bouck, the
Democratic war horse Of Oshkosh, and Andrew
E. Gilmore, OF Fort Howard, Republican vet
eran. both being defeated. James Hogan, Of
La Crosse, Is elected, although the Labor party
and the Republicans united in their support Of
George Stitch, . labor agitstor.
MICHIGAN.
DETROIT, Mich, Nov. .-Ha rrison's plural
ity in Michigan will reach $4,000, against
s,so8 for Blaine in 1884 This surpris
ingly large gain is undoubtedly due
the old party lines. Four years ago the
Fusion vote of the State was 49,, oe1. the
straight Democratic vote being 149,635
and tho Greenback vote 1880.
The combined Greenback and Union
Labor vote of last Tuesday
ties have made returns on the Prohibition
vote. But St. Johns vote of 164O8 has been
reduced nearly one-hali Luce (Rep.), for Gov.
ernor. will have plurality Of about IL, 500

of the Pioneer Pres, estimates that tho State
