COLUMBUS. O., Nov. 6.-An extra
edition of the Dispatch Qnd. Rep.) claims
an official count to be necessary to deter
mine whether Foraker or Campbell is
elected governor. 1t is generally believed
that the legislature will show a Demo-
cratic majority. but this the Republican
committee does not concede. Chairman
Conger of the Republican committee at
noon said they did not concede the state
to the Democrats, and expressed the de.
sire to wait full returns before giving out
an estimate further than to say that the
the legislature was in doubt. Chairman
Neal claimed q majority of ten on a Joint
ballot this morning Tor the Democrats,
but it is not now so certain as to the re-
suit. 1t may require several days to set
tie all doubts as to the general assembly.
The Republican state committee at /
D. m. comedies the election of Campbell
and admit the legislature Democratic in
all branches. Governor Foraker has tel
egraphed congratulations to Campbell.
This evening the Democratic state
committee is claiming the election of
Campbell by a plurality of from IL, 900 to
$4,000 and the rest of the ticket by plu-
~ralities ranging from 1000 to 5000.
These conclusions are reached from
meaGre returns and are mostly estimates,
but are believed to be reliable within the
range Of pluralities which are given. The
Republican committee has nothing upon
which they can reliably dispute the
figures. The committee however. do not
think complete figures will be sufficiently
favorable &c leave n part of their ticket.
Both committees and chairmen seem to
be agreed that the Democrats will carry
the legislature in both branches.
CINCINNATI. Nov. 6.-Incomplete re.
turns from all counties in the state except
twenty six give Campbell a plurality OF
4,I25. The twenty-six counties not heard
from gave Powell Democrat. in 1887 a
plurality Of 49, The outlook from these
figures is that Csnpbell's plurality in the
state will be about o,0nU.
$50 P. M.-Unoficial returns from
e%ighty-four counties in Ohio give Camp
bell a plurality of s,905. The four re-
naming counties gave Powell Dem.) a
plurality in 1887 of 430.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 5.-This evening
the Republicans in Cleveland are in re-
tirement. Foraker has run from 800 to
l.500 votes behind his ticket or therea-
bouts. In fact he was cut by the Re-
publicans in nearly every one of the 100
precincts in this county. Late this even
ing the impression prevails that the Dem
ocrats have a majority of two in the house
OF representatives and possibly a majority
Lf two in the senate.

A WRECKED TRAIN.
A b. and o. Express Goes OFF the Rails
just Outside the City.

There was a smash-up on the Metropolitan
branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad this
morning, which blockaded the railroad until
2:30 this afternoon. The train for Harper's
Ferry and the Shenandoah VALLEY, that left
the depot at 1910 o'clock was derailed about
half mile beyond the boundary, just opposite
the terminus of the lexington railroad,
between what are known as the first
and second bridges. Workmen were
engaged at this point in fixing
the rails and it is presumed left one of the rails
in an unsafe condition. The train consisted of
baggage, mail, express and three passenger
cars. All of the cars, except one left the
track and were thrown from their trucks.
They were mashed together across the track.
A gang of men were soon busily at work clear
ing away the wreck. They did not succeed in
reopening communication until after o'clock.
In the meanwhile passengers had to be trans
ferred around the wreck.
No one was injured by the accident. The
rails, howevea, were badly spread. The
wrecked train was well filed
with passengers, many of whom were still
waiting at the scene of the wreck
after 2 o'clock this afternoon. The loco
motive and tender, the express car and
rear passenger coach were on the track.
The two coaches in the center of
the train were thrown across the tracks
and off their trucks in such way
as to make it difficult to get the tracks clear.
The blockade made an unusual state of
things about the depot. Many passengers
were waiting in cars or about the station all
day long for trains to the west.

MR.. O'FERRALL INDIGNANT.
Man Pardoned December Fl is Still
Confined In Jail.

Representati,. O'Ferrall, Of Virginia, has
prepared a resolution, which he expects to
offer in the House. asking the reason for de-
lays of the State department in issuing the
warrants in cases of pardoned offenders against
the law. Mr.. O'Ferrall is indignant over
the delay occasioned by clerical indifference
in the State department, in the issuance of a
warrant for the release of one of his constitu-
ents, who was pardoned by the President on the
2lst of December. but is still in Jail. David H.
Martin, of Patrick county, Va, is confined in
jail for trivial violation of internal revenue
law. The prisoner is cripple and in bad
health. Moreover his family are suffering
during his confinement. Mr.. O'Ferrall went to
the President on December q and said that he
was not going home for his Christmas dinner
until he got that pardon for Martin. He
wanted that as Christmas present for his fam
lily. The President, when the case was laid be-
fore him, granted the pardon without an hour 8
delay. The attorney then at once made a re-
QUESTION upon the Secretary of State for war
rant for Martin'srelease. This was all done on
the same day. ION the next day." Mr.. O'Fer-
rail- says, Il went home to spend the Christmas
recess, feeling certain that Martin would be re-
leased at once, but much to my surprise
learned, on yesterday, that the warrant had
not been issued, and that the man was still in
Jail. 1 consider this delay shame and an out
rage, and denounce the party responsible for
1t as unworthy of any position of public trust.
The President acted with promptness, the At
torney-General did not delay for a minute, and
yet the Department of State has held and still
holds back the necessary warrantfor the release
OF a man pardoned two weeks ago. 1t seems
that in the estimation of the State department
officials citizens liberty is very small matter,
and that a mans health or even life is not
worth considering.

The Washington management has sold Short
Stop Fuller to the St. Louis club at fair
figure, although his entire cost price was not
recovered. 1t is thought that under Com
iskey's careful tutorship the short man will
soon develop into brilliant star.
Ted Sullivan's mission in the west is not
ended yet as the prize he went after
is not yet secured, nor have his efforts
resulted in failure. Big Davis, the
third baseman is the man wanted As the
Kansas City people are very anxious to get
OBrien. on this point Washington pins her
hopes of getting Davis.
VIM. Hart, representing President Spaulding,
was in Washington yesterday to make
arrangements for the game between the
teams which are on their way around
the world. The travellers will reach America
about the LIST of April, and it is proposed to
play game in each of the league cities.
President Hewitt has not heard a word
from Ward, and is now satisfied that
the latter will not receive his letter giving the
details of the deal with President Day and
making Ward advantageous offers to come to
Washington and manage the team, until the
party reaches Cairo, Egypt.
Extending the tour of the travelling teams is
disappointment to Washington as Wards
active services can not be secured until so late
in the season that he will have but little to say
in the selection of new players.

PROPOSED NEW STATES.
Prospects for Their Admission at this
Session of Congress Discussed.

The House to-day started very cheerfully on
the road to doing nothing. An attempt to
adopt resolution for the purpose Of limiting
the chances for flibustering on suspension
days was met by most determined filibuster,
and matters were put at a standstill. There is
much discussion of the prospects of legislation
in favor of new states. 1t is far
from certain that the majority will not
yet split on the question. The policy pressed
by Mr.. Springer is for the admission of as
many territories as possible, and, doubtless,
the friends of the omnibus bill will resist the
admission of Dakota if New Mexico is not adj
mitted also. The chances of New Mexico
being admitted do not appear great, and an
agreement is doubtful. Enough democrats,
however, have made up their minds that South
Dakota, Montana, and Washington territory
should be admitted to assist the republicans in
the admission of all or any one of them.
MR.. cox Is THE CHAMPION
in the democratic party of the territories,
regardless of politics, and will do all he can in
the interest of each of them Independently of
the rest. He is receiving letters constantly
from the people in the the territories, placing
their cause in his hands, and praying him to
see that none Of them suffer from partisanship
in the House.
IF THE OMNIBUS BILL PASSES
the House, is amended in the Senate,
and gets into conference, Mr.. Cox feels sure
that some of the territories will be admitted
whether all are or not. If disagreement is
reported from the conference he will move for
a new conference and do everything he can
until something comes of it.
MIR. SPRINGER INSISTS
that the four territories should be admitted by
the one act and he will probably fight deter
NJ ,
Delegate Joseph, of New Mexico, replying to
the criticism of Senator Plat upon his terri
tory, says that there are fourteen counties in
the territory, any one of which is larger than
the state of Connecticut. Fifty per cent of the
inhabitants, he says, are from the east. and
seventy-ive per cent of the so-called Mexicans
read and speak English. The cattle interests
of the territory, he says are very valuable.

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.
CONSIDERING IJoroR CASES.

CONSIDERING LIQUOR CASES.
The District Commissioners gave consider
able of their session this afternoon to consider
ing the questions relating to liquor licenses
raised in the Solari and johnson cases. In the
first named case they came to a final decision
rejecting the application made by the Senior
Solari. Mr.. Mills Dean, attorney for Mr..
Solari, requested to have the case referred to
the attorney for the District to have
that officer decide upon the genuiueness of the
transfer of the property from Solari, jr.. to
Solari, sr. The Commissioners thought. how
ever, they did not need the advice of their
physician on this point and decided to notify
Mr.. Dean that they would not reopen the
case. In the johnson case they considered
an opinion given by Mr.. Davis, the assistant at
torney, but as it did not cover all the points
upon which. the Commissioners desire light,
they returned the case to the attorneys office,
with all the papers, including the license
granted last year.
