three republicans who were elected there
two years ago.
THE REPUBLICAN CLAIM.
Ex-Chairman CApellier of the republican
state executive committee, is figuring on
the returns in Gov. Foraker's office. He
says: II feel confident that Gov. Foraker
is elected l do not concede Hamilton
county TO Campbell by 5000 or 6,O0O The
county, outside Of the city lis ,0O0republican.
Even if the democratic plurality in the
county should be 1900, the democratic
gains elsewhere in the state must average
59a votes to the precinct to elect Campbell.
The returns so far have been from the
cities and towns where the liquor
vote was against us, and where the
liquor dealers circulated against Gov. For
aker. The country districts have not been
heard from to any extent. We are sure of
holding our own there, and are likely TO
make gains. A very liberal estimate is an
average democratic gain outside OF Hamil
ton county Of four and a-half votes to the
precinct, which would elect Gov. Foraker
by 1,50O to 1000 plurality"
CUT BY THE GERMANS.
CINCINNATI O., Nov. 6, / A. M.-The
loss by Gov. Foraker in Hamilton county.
which gave him plurality of nearly 1000
TWO years ago, has been largely effected by
de1ectlon In the German republican wards
The losses in some Of these wards amounts
to more than 200 votes. This result was
not fully anticipated by the republicans, as
they were confident late this after
noon that the detection in the German
quarter was trifing. While the losses
or Gov. Foraker were not confined to these
wards, they are much more marked there
than in other portions of the city. The re-
turns also show that especially in the Ger
man wards the head of the ticket was the
part most severely hit by the republican
scratchers This leaves hope to the repub-
lican calculators at midnight that at least
one senator on the republican ticket may
be elected.
CAUSED BY THE SUNDAY QUESTION.
The Commercial Gazette, commenting
on the result in Hamilton county, says it is
an outgrowth Of the Sunday question. The
saloon legislation did not seem to be dis
turbing thing, but rather the bad admins
tration Of the Sunday laws was the cause
OF the discomfort among the Germans
The estimate at midnight is that
by over 5000 -Four hundred and
sixty-three precincts in Ohio outside of
Hamilton county give Foraker 66,976,
Campbell 63, 1871, Helwig 1854. The same
in 1887 gave Foraker 65, 7S8, Powell 81, 1856,
Sharp 1852. This shows an average gain
of 7.S per cent. per precinct for Campbell.
Fourteen precincts in Toledo show a gain
for Foraker Of IA. The prohibition vote is
almost identical throughout the state with
that of 1897
HAMILTON CoUNTY's MAJORITY.
The Enquirer claims that Campbell has
carried Hamilton county by 5000.
At $50 O'Clock tonight the opinion is
general that Hamilton county has gone for
Campbell by from 1000 to 5000 This esti-
mate rs made by the Lincoln Club and is
corroborated by figures received by the
board Of elections. The Young Mems Demo
ocratic Club put out bulletin saying that
| Hamilton county is democratic by plural
ity of 6,000
| In 1l9 precincts in Ohio, outside of Gin
cinnati, Foraker has 1879, Campbell
| 10, 700 and Helwig, prob, 1000. The same
places in 1887 gave Foraker Is, ,4O3. Powell
| II, ,544, and Sharp $50.
CAMPBELL's ELECTION CLAIMED.
CINCINNATI, o., Nov. g. A. M.-With
| four precincts to hear from Cincinnati
gives Campbell a plurality Of 5,9lI. THIS
shows a democratic gain of over IL, 500
| since 1887. The Enquirer claims the cleo
| ton of Campbell by slight majority, but
| comedies the election of 6est OF the state
ticket. As to the legislature it is in doubt
from lack of information from close coun-
ties. Six hundred and forty-eight voting
places in Ohio outside of Cincinnati give
Foraker 100. l05, Campbell 90, 1874, Heiwig
5,05S The same places in 1887 gave
Foraker 9s,067, Powell Ss,757. Sharp 5, l40.
