BIG FALLING OFF.
Simpsons Majority in Sedgwick
County Reduced Over One Thou
sand One Hundred Votes.
The Probability is That Long VIII
Not Be Beaten in the County More
Than Four Hundred Votes

The election passed off very quietly il
| this city yesterday. There were nearly
| $500 votes cast in the seventeen precincts
which is the heaviest vote, possibly, thai
| has ever been cast in the city. Both side.
worked as hard AS they possibly could
| and the election will go down in the his
tory of the city as the hardest contested
| in the memory of the oldest citizen. The
Republicans contested every inch o.
ground with the Demopops. and so far as
the city is concerned. the victory for tht
Republicans is decisive. The probabilit,
at this hour e o'clock a m.) is that the
city will give Long for congress, and al
the Republican ticket, about CTS majority
and that the county will give a fusion
ma oriry of about 400. Two years ago
Simpson for congress carried the county
by 1,567 majority.
