OHIO.

COLUMBUS. o., Nov. 10.-The result of
the election in Ohio is still in doubt, and
The indications are that only the official
count will settle it. Tine Democratic
state committee claims to have authentic
returns from seventy-six counties. and, es-
timating the results in the twelve other
counties, says that Cleveland has carried
the state by plurality of 1.270 and that
Taylor. Democrat, is elected secretary of
state, by still greater plurality. The Re
publican committee claims the election Of
Taylor. the Republican candidate for sec
retary OF state, by plurality of ], ,413, and
that Harrison has carried the state. The
Democrats have elected eleven aud the Re-
publlcans Ten congressman.
ALLIANCE, Nov. 10.-Probably one of the
biggest surprises of Tuesdays ballot was
the election of DR.. George p Irkirt, Demo-
rrat, in this (Mckinley's) district The
complete returns will elect Irkirt over the
Republican candidate by majority of
1000
COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 10.-At o'clock p.
N. the situation in Ohio is that the official
rount alone can decide the result. The
Republicans suffered relapse this after
noon by discovering mistake of l 900 in
their footipgS. This reduced a supposed
Republican plurality of l 200 to 200. The
indications are that the Cleveland electors
ARE chosen. All the counties in the state
except four have been heard from, and
there can be no great change. The Demo-
Gratis claim the election of the Cleveland
electors by 500 plurality, but think that
the official court alone can decide the re-
suit Oh The state ticket

grand master of the Brotherhood of Fire
men, passed through the city today en-
route for Parsons, Kan, to settle the

But if they are not met fairly they will
probably select for u strike time at

NO FLAG FOR FORT SUMTER.

It IL Abandoned rs q War Barracks and
No Ensign Can Float There.
During the recent grand army en-
canpment an enthusiastic veteran in
troduced resolution calling upon the
secretary of war to hoist an American
dag over Fort Sumter, in Charleston
harbor. In the excitement of the mo-
ment the resolution went through with
out opposition or investigation. At the
war department. the chief Of engineers,
who has charge of the government for
tificatiens, was questioned on the sub
jcct. He says the secretary of war has
not yet complied with the resolution,
Gays the Pittsburgh Dispatch, nor is 1t
likely that he will The army regula-
tions provide that the union flag shall
be displayed at military forts and forti-
hcations that are garrisoned or occu-
pied. Fort Sumter is neither gar
risoned nor occupied, and therefore the
secretary OF war has no authority TO
float flag over the old fortress unless
ho Is prepared to garrison it with troops.
In further explanation OF the non-ap-
pearanoe Of tho flag at Fort Sumter
and other practically abandoned forts,
the engineer officers say that very seri-
Gus foreign complications might arise if
the resolution adopted by the Grand
Army of the Republic encampment is
carried out.
For instance, If the flag was hoisted
over Fort Sumter, . foreign warship
might visit the harbor of Charleston. In
accordance with the naval regulations
Of the world the foreign ships would
salute the American flag, and expect q
similar salute in return. The foreigner
could not be expected to know that Fort
Sumter is unoccupied and was simply
floating its countrys flag as matter of
sentiment. Not having his salute ac-
knowledgcd the foreigner would be jus
titled in charging this country with dis
courtesy, and would have right TO de-
mand a explanation. The ordnance ser
geant stationed there could hardly re-
turn foreign warship's salute with an
old musket or revolver which he hap
pens to have with him in his quarters as
a matter Of personal protection. When
the secretary Of war refers the rcsolu-
ton to the chief of engineers he viii

who were elected to state offices ON Tues

turn was sent out from the officers of
Holdover Secretary Walsh. 1t contains
several traps to catch unwary moderators
upon the subject of rejected votes. BY
counting all these. rejected votes as if they
were votes cast against Judge Morris and
his associates, the conspirators hope to
wipe out the large majorties received by
the Democratic candidates. 1t is known
that several hundred votes-many of them
for Morris-were thrown out for illegality."

fore she married Uncle ST she was tho
widow Furbay, the lamented Furbay
having died at the age of fifty, leaving
his widow to arrange match for her
self, thing that she was fully capable
of doing. as was proven by the fact
that she was led to the altar by Uncle
81 in considerably less than a year after
Mr.. Furbay had ''gone over" to quote
the somewhat non-committal language
of the pastor who ministered to the
spiritual wants of the mem bers of the
little country church of which he had
been a member. In view of tho fact
that Uncle ST had been widower for
nearly ten years before he fell victim
to Cupid's arrows and the charms Of
Aunt Furbay. there were those in the
neighborhood who meanly intimated
that in this case the lady had done the
counting, but that does not interfere
with the fact that they were q good old

when l was coming, and as the little
river steamer bumped up against tho
wharfsoat at Ripley, saw my old
friend on the lookout. That portion Of
his face that was not hidden by his
full beard, and the twinkling of his
bright gray eyes, assured me that my
welcome was cordial one, and in a
few minutes we were spinning up the
road toward his home. Uncle 81 asked
me SO many questions about myself
that had no time to inquire about his
people further than to get the assur-
ance that Aunt Furbay was sort O.

saying that she was in perfect health.

Aunt Eurbay's son, and Uncle Si told
me he was married, in q very matter of
fact way, and when ! asked to whom,
! received the very indefinite inforIna-
tion that his bride had been gal up
our way" From the seantiness of the
information given me l suspected there
was something unpleasant connected
with his marriage, and dropped the
subject without further remark than
to express surprise, when did not feel
the least symptoms OF that emotion.
As we drove up to the gate in front
Of Uncle Sis home, Aunt Fur bay came
