Favorable Weather Prevailed Throughout
the State and Citizens Did Their Duty.


CHICAGO. Nov. 8.-The anticipations raised
by the heavy registration in this city have
been fully justified by the unprecedented
vote cast up to noon today. The weather
was clear and cold, and the poll
ing booths opened promptly at o'clock,
as the law directs, but even before that
hour there were knots of voters clus tered
around the voting places ready TO deposit their
votes. 1t is safe to say that fully one half of
the entire vote was cast before 10 o'clock, and
save for a few struggling ballots the judges
and clerks had little to do after noon The in
junction TO vote early was generally obeyed.
Little can be said as to the complexion Of the
vote, further than that the indications are of a
pretty strict party vote on the ma
tional ticket, some scratching on the
state officers and a general go-as-you-
please 80 far as the county officers
are concerned. In some wards it was said that
the Lutherans were voting solidly for Altgeld
while in others they were standing by their
former political affiliations. Throughout the
state the same favorable weather prevailed rs
in this city, and reports were ali Of a heavy
vote.
