The chairman of the Democratic state
central committee claimed that Cleve-
land plurality would be 4, 300. and the Re-
publican committee conceded the state to
Cleveland by a small plurality. Returns
from the interior of the state came in
rapidly during the afternoon, 100 precincts
reported between noon and the time the
last computation was made tonight, and
these precincts were principally in several
large counties, Los Angeles, San Ber-
nardino, Kern and Fresno among the
number. These later returns not only in
creased the total vote over 10000. but they
also increased Harrison's plurality nearly

Modoc, Mono. Napa. Shasta. Siskiyou. So
noma, Trinity, Tuolumne and Ventura
These counties complete gave Harrison in

Rafurue from AK IL, the intn.
r.or have not vet rerorted. the
Republican state committee concede that
Cleveland will have 5000 plurality in this
city. The Democratic state committee
claim 5000 plurality in the city, and the
Democratic county committee claim 5000.
The Republican committee coneede that
the Democrats will have a majority of one
or two on Joint ballot in the legislature.
The Democrats claim a majority of six to
eight.
The Gail, Rep, makes the following CAL
culations on the political complexion of
the legislature:
All the districts have been heard from and the
returns are in, except from the Sixth
assembly district In the senate with
IA holdover senators the Republicans will
have %, and the Democrats, with s
hoidovers, will have IL. In the assembly the
democrats WILL nave AZ. the Republicans 81, Sne
non-partisans Q aud the Popuiists /. On
joint ballot the Democrats will have
80 and the Republicans 81. As 81
votes are necessary for majority,
this leaves the balance OF power in the hands of
two bipartisan and one PopuIist assembly
men. These three were formerly Republicans,
and it Is thought that on the election OF United
States senator they will vote with the Republi-
cans.
The latest returns tonight on mayoralty
in this city seem to indicate the probable
election of Ebert, the non-partlsan
candidate. These returns show that
So, $50 votes are counted, about 5000
short of the entire vote cast.
Ebert is leading O'Donnell, Ind. by l,1S7
votes The result Is as follows: Ebert,
non-partisan. i7,154: O'Donneli, Ind,
1857; Baldwin, DEM, l2,609; Eaton,
Rep, s,795. The Prohibition, Peo-
pies and old Democratic candi-
dates polled 1853 votes. The returns
are very incomplete as to the remainder of
the municipal ticket. One or two Repub-
licans and one or two non-partissns are
probably elected, but in the main the
Democratic ticket has triumphed,
