spurned all proffers of assistance from

carry it. it was in this district that
O'Mara and his gang of repeateps were to
get in their work. Then they were to GO
to Union Hill and West Hoboken and
vote for Kean and Doherty. The plot
was dastardly one and the police are re-

that there will be fine weather there up

was extremely peaceful. a large vote
being polled with no signs of disturb
ance or interference anywhere. Des-
patches up to balf-past ten report SIM

n the betting this morning, while
little is being done as yet, the odds re-
main in favor of the Democrats as on
Saturday last. The reported wager by
CHRIS. Magee of s25. 600 is a pure fake.
Republicans have resorted to desperate
expedients to create false impression in
this respect.
BIG BLUFF.
Hilf an hour after midnight,
the betting had ceased. J. c.
