REPUBLICANS DISCOURAGED.
500 A. M.-Everything is perfectly
quiet throughout the city. Three thous
and committeeman from Democratic
business associations were punctually or
duty at the polling stations. There have
been very few challenges thus far, and
no indications of crooked work
The Republicans are obviously
discouraged. United Labor workers
are distributing both kinds of electoral
ballots. The Central Election Day Com
mittee, appointed by the Democratic
organizations, and the National and State
Committees have been in session at the
st. James Hotel since 6 o'clock. They
have received no complaints as vet. The
Germans are evidently voting the Demo.
cratic State and National ticket en-
masse.
LARGE EARLY VOTE.
Ga. M.-Dispatches received at the
National Democratic headquarters from
various points in the interior of New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut show
a large vote and everything progressing
to the satisfaction of the Democratic
managers. In Brooklyn, as in New
York, the attendance at the polls up to
O'Clock was unusually large and the
Democratic vote very promptly cast.
GOOD NEWS FROM BROOKLYN.
1915 A. MA dispatch from VIM. A..
Fury, Secretary of the Democratic Com.
mittee of Kings county. just received at
the National Democratic headquarters,
says The voting in Brooklyn city is 60.
ing on very rapidly and quickly. The
Democratic wards are polling a heavy
vote, evidently taking more interest at
an early hour than the Republican wards.
Kings county is safe for $4,000 for Cleve-
land and Thurman. The Democrats
claim from present indications that Rich
mond county will 60 Tor Cleveland by
$500, gain of 500 over 1884. Republi-
can estimates concede 1000.
CALVIN S. BRICE.
FAVORABLE NEWS FROM NEW JERSEY.
1870 A. M.-National Democratic news
from New Jersey is extremely favorable.
At Camden a gain of an Assemblyman
is accounted certain. There is no dis
couraging news from any quarter. A
careful inspection of the condition of the
densely populated districts on the east
and west sides of this city, show a per-
fectly straight fight, with three-ifths of
the total vote already polled, These are
the surest Democratic districts south ef
Harlem. CALVIN 5. BRICE.
LARGE DEMOCRATIC PLURALITY ASSURED.
$3.50 P. M.-Colonel John Fellows, Gen
erals Martin Mcmahon, United States
Marshal, and United States District At
torney Walker agree in saying that the
election is remarkably orderly and that
there will be little need to resort to the
complete arrangement they have made
to prevent and punish frauds. There is
no sign of disturbance at any polling
place and the voting is proceeding with
great rapidity in nearly all the large dis
tricts. Davenport's monkeyshines have
not developed TO a sufficient extent to
call for action against him. A very full
vote and a corresponding large Demo-
cratic plurality is conceded as assured by
both the State and National Democratic
headquarters. y. ). BRIcE.
A SPLENDID OUTLOOK.
5:1OP. M.-With more than half the vote
polled in the contested Eastern States,
Democratic Headquarters are confident
that their expectations of sweeping
victory for Cleveland and Thurman will
surely be justified, and that the other
electoral votes of the Northeast will be
added to those cast for Cleveland in
1884. 1t is evident that the vote that
was Democratic before 1884, but which
in that year went to Blaine and Butler,
has returned to the Democracy, and is
now solid for Cleveland and Thurman.
