INDIANAPOLIS, November THE city
has been in ferment since early morn
ing. Long before the hour for the
resumption Of bulletlng, large crowd
gathered around the newspaper offices,
calling returns, returns" and clamor.
ing TO know the latest from New York
and Indiana. AS darkness came on, the
crowds began to grow around the Journal
premises, standing patiently. AS the
stereopticon illuminated the last returns
from New York City and Kings county,
confirming the previous figures, the
crowd grew boisterous and hilarious and
cheering. ln the corridors of the
New Denison the scenes OF last night are
being repeated upon moderated scale.
At the Gates and Grand Hotels large
crowds are congregated, but no demon
STATIONS are in progress. Congratulatory
kilograms have poured in upon General
Harrison since early morning, and from
all parts of the country. The press will
be given access to these kilograms at
such time as General Harrison thinks
proper. Under the circumstances he is
not disposed to be hasty in this matter,
taking the same cool. bat serious view
OF the election as he manifested in such
marked degree throughout the cam
paign.
1t has been an anxious day for the
crowd at Democratic headquarters. The
returns from New York were very de-
pressing and all eyes were turned to In
diana. At O'Clock this evening the
Committee rooms were packed with
seekers after the latest news. Chairman
Jewett, Mr.. Sheerin, Secretary of the
Democratic National Committee, and a
large corps of assistants have been busily
engaged since early morning in receiving
and tabulating the returns from various
parts of the state. When an Associated
Press correspondent called this evening
after Mr.. Sheerin was in charge, when
asked for an expression regarding the re-
suit in Indiana, he said
We have heard from fifty-four counties
officially and have the figures claimed by
the Republicans for the rest our returns
give the State ticket to Cleveland bv
from 1900 to 1000 plurality The State
ticket is behind their national ticket, go
that our ticket will have larger plural
ity than that. l think we have gained
three, and possibly four, Congressman,
and we have a good working majority in
both branches of the Legislature. Our
returns are official from every county.
Our committeeman send them to us as
soon as they can get them exactly"
Opinions expressed among the Demo.
Gratis generally are varied, but great
many are conceding the State to the Re-
publicans. Meanwhile the faithful keep
up their weary wait.
