There is a rumor, which seems to come
from a reliable source, that the famous

left London about fortnight ago. and
after going to Paris came here. He
proposes to extend his trip to Australia,
Where he will remain several months.
AS IL has been already announced that
his vile would not accompany him, but
would stay IL London, it is probable
that they desire to attract as little atten.

A REMARKABLE VOTE.

At no State election held tins year
has there been a more thorough test
OF party strength than in Iowa. The
vote polled was the largest ever cast
in the State and comes within few
thousands Of the vote which might
have been expected had this been q
Presidential year.
loWa's total vote OH Presidential
electors in 1884 was 375,932 In
1888 it was 404,140. That is to
say. the annual increment OF the
vote Of the State between 1884 and
1888 was little over 1000. To
bring the vote of this year up to the
Presidential standard would have
required total Of 425, 900 in round
numbers. The actual total was
41e, ,439. Crediting all the missing
vote to the Republicans would still
leave Con. Boies with a plurality
over his opponent.
Gov. Boies's percentage Of the
whole vote is this year 49.49,
against 1894 in 1889. But the
percentage obtained by the Rcpub-
lican candidate for Governor has
also decreased from 1910 in 1889
to 47.53 in 1891. The Alliance
candidates vote Of 11.527 would
thus seem TO have been drawn some
what more largely from Republicans
than Democrats, This has more
than wiped out the gain made by
the Republicans from the virtual
disappearance OF the Prohibition
vote, which this year is only s62.
The vote Of Iowa next year can
hardly exceed 432, 900. If the side
tickets take OF their usual average
Of 1900 tho party that polls 211,-
900 will have the electoral vote Of
the State. Gov. Boies has come

Republicans are over II 900 short
