Newfoundland Fisheries.

In an interview in Paris yesterday in regard
to the dispute between France and Great
Britain concerning the Newfoundland fisheries,
NJ. Deloncle, a member of the chamber of dep
uties, suggested as basis for a settlement of
the dispute that England should pay an indem-
nifty to the French cod and lobster fishermen
and recognize the right of French fishermen
on the Grand Banks to buy and sell bait in all
the ports of Newfoundland He also suggested
that England should give France territorial
compensation in Africa in return for the sur
rerder by France of her rights on the French
shore of Newfoundland, France retaining only
her privileges on the Grand Banks, which priv
ileges are held in common by everybody.

INDIANA.
Rather Light Vote Reported Through
out the State.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Nov. 4.-The weather
today ID almost perfect for voting. The air is
crisp and cool, but the sun shines brightly, and
it is almost a perfect autumn day. Every
where there is great interest in the workings o
the new election law.
Advices from the state at large to the Netos
indicate a rather light vote, but in this city
more than half the polled vote had been cast
by u O'Clock. In some quarters i'll the negro
districts and around the packing houses many
votes are being rejected for being irregular in
form OF preparation.
AS a whole, however, the system is working
satisfactorily. Owing to the absolute secrecy
OF tho ballot 1t is impossible to give an esti-
mate OF the character OF the vote cast, but both
parties seem to be getting out their vote in
about equal proportions. The chairmen of
the state and county committees express about
eq ual confidence on the result.

The Vaux Contest Exciting,

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. Affection division Off
GERS report an average full vote cast up to noon
throughout the city. Any statement of results
by the election officers in the various voting
precincts would be merely guesswork, as under
the state laws they are not allowed to open the
ballot boxes or mako any count of the votes
cast until the polls are closed at pm.
An exciting contest is in progress in the third
congressional district, which so many
years represented by the late Samuel j. Ran
dali Richard Vaux was at the time OF Mr.. Ran
dali's death elected to serve the uncxpired
term, but was defeated il the democratic
nominating convention for the full term. VIM
McAleer receiving the nomination. Mr. Vaux' S
friends. however placed him i'll nominatian as
an Independent candidate and the republican
party made no nomination. The district COM
prses eight of the wards in the southern
and central part of the city, and in 1888
gave Randall II, 642 votes against " scattering,
there being no republican candidate against
him. McAleer ana Vaux each have strong
following, and the voters are pcrsstently
importuned by each faction to cast their votes
for the respective tavorites
AN UNPRECEDENTED VOTE.
PIrrsBUnG, Nov. 4.-From present indications
the vote poiled today will be the heaviest over
known here. Great interest is being mani
fosted in the election, and both parties are ex-
ertInG themselves to the utmost to get out
every voter. 30 lar the IatLlSOD vote IN 1lItS-
burg and Allegheny City IL not az large as eX-
pccted. 4 great deal of scratching is being
done, but it is not as general anticipated,
and the indications are that tile republican
state ticket will pull through with reduced
majority.
PECULIAR FEATURE
of the election is the severe scratching Con-
gresham Dalzell (reuublican) is receiving.
His majority however, is so large that there is
no danger of his defeat. Charges of fraud
and illegal voting are being made
by both parties. In the first ward
United States marshals have been placed
at the polls. The feeling is intensely bitter,
particularly between the two factions of the
republican party, but so far no trouble has
been reported. Today is cloudy and raw.
Nothing has been received from the interior OF
the county.
JoHNsrowS. Pa, Nov. 4.-Snow is falling.
The atmosphere is of q midwinter temperature.
Voters arc slow in getting out. Cambria county
